Re: Charge + Permanence in Path of Glory

"Use its wp instead of their own" assumes that you are *using* wp for some purpose. That is different from replenishing previously used wp.

Charge + Permanence in Path of Glory

In Stormhand’s lair, both the pentagram and the statue in the bedroom have charge + permanence, and are described as if stormhand (or anyone?) can transfer wp points from the item to themselves. My understanding of Charge is that those wp points can only be *used*, e.g. to power spells - not simply ...

Re: First few sessions

I have run about 8 sessions, and it has felt very nicely balanced so far. Sometimes a player goes down, never more than one so far, and they have never had to retreat from a fight. The key is to use all the available mechanical tools like swapping initiative cards, pushing rolls, taking the bane to ...

Re: Check out the Unofficial Dragonbane FAQ - 100 Questions about Dragonbane rules

Regarding the Fireball spell, if extra power levels are used to create additional fireballs, a) do the extra ones also deal 2d6 damage, b) does the spell caster have to roll a skill check for each fireball, or do they all hit or miss together? c) if one PL is used to create an additional fireball, a...

Re: Riddermound, 1st Dragonbane session

Thanks, all good points! Regarding the lady, it does say she wakes up if the PCs open the door to the tomb as well. While it doesn’t say she automatically attacks in that case, given her mission to guard the tomb, it is a bit difficult to see the PCs talk themselves out of that one, which is why I c...

Thoughts on Free Attacks

I am curious if anyone else is house ruling these free attacks. I never liked these in 5e, and to me, they really don't fit into the Dragonbane mechanics. The general principle in Dragonbane is *one combat action per initiative card*. Free attacks break that, and for no good reason as far as I can t...

Riddermound, 1st Dragonbane session

Just another experience report here with some comments/questions. I ran Riddermound with a party of 4 (using all the pregens minus the hunter). Short version: A great time was had by all, and overall I love the game and I think my players did too. The initiative card mechanic and single action econo...

Separate player/GM books

Free League - Is there any chance you would consider separating the GM content from the player content? I would buy extra player books for all my players, but I don't want to give them the bestiary, encounter tables, etc (pretty much everything from p82 onward in the beta pdf). You could even combin...

Re: Star of the Mist - issues with map/layout

I must confess, I had to read the description of the map several times to get, where was what. But it is not supposed to be a dungeon crawl map, where everything is fleshed out. It is more an inspiration for the Loremaster. If you wanted to make an accurate map of the Star of the Mist city, tower a...
