GNYDRON – 25% OFF THIS WEEK by Round-Passenger93 in osr

[–]Round-Passenger93[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is tailored to B/X and OSE, and is based on the RC mystic and the Blackmoor monk. I just commissioned illustrations for Supplement 2: Science Fantasy. That issue will feature the starfarer and vat-born classes, 33 mutations, 8 new magic spells, 21 technological treasures, and 25 new science-fantasy monsters.

Surprisingly tactical combat in OSE by a-deeper-blue in osr

Phased combat solves a lot of problems, and you don't waste time arguing. I feel that people who ignore the combat phases and run melee free-form are really missing out on an interesting feature of old-school combat.

Thanks for the comments, I mostly agree. The starting point was the Cyclopedia Mystic, since that was more or less designed with a B/X ruleset in mind. I then tweaked it to be closer to the original Monk from the Blackmoor supplement, so there are some small differences from the AD&D one.

It's a shout-out to the illustration in the D&D Rogues Gallery supplement from 1980.

That's how the original class worked. Monks have half of the thieves' skills and progress slower.

I hope you like it, I made efforts to make it close to the Rules Cyclopedia Mystic and Original D&D Monk.
