Subject: Enchanted Wood and 1st editions updated for 2nd edition
Hi all,

I know this is almost a laughable question, but does anyone have an enchanted wood for sale? It seems to be the toughest to find.

Also, my next project is I'm all of the removed weapons from 1st edition to second edition. As you know stats and XP changed for a lot of weapons. So I'm going to plot all the changes and use them for extrapolations of the differences. As an example the Knife gets a bit of an upgrade in Base Chance to hit in 2nd edition. I'll keep people updated.

Also farther down the road I'm working on a powers of light article. Based of course on official material. I like extrapolation can you all tell ;-)

Hey everyone,

Since the high forest in forgotten realms is a bastard child of the enchanted wood. Is there anyone who is FR loremaster that can tell us besides the stuff grabbed from EW, how has the HF been developed, and which modules, and books is it detailed in (besides savage frontier and the north)

Thanks in adance

Subject: time to kill for programming..
greetings, all.

it has been, perhaps, a few years since if posted anything.

i have been playing Neverwinter Nights, on line. it is as good a mmo
that i know of (that is free).

where i am working, now, i have hours and hours to spend, so im
putting time into reprogramming the NeverWinter Nights game into DQ..
lol

it is a ludicrously monumental task - i am not realy any sort of
programmer - it has been years since i did anything that may be of
signigicance.

anyhow, i downloaded various resources.. scripting stuff, etc.

tho i did shudder at the thought of even mentioning this, i thought,
maybe, my attempt (likely to be futile) might inspire some/one of you
who are ~real~ programmers.

i would guestimate that in a week or so, ill be able to figure out if
i should just give up and do something else.

thoughts?

Subject: Unusual uses of Magic By Players
Friday night I strung together a series of magics that created a
strategy that surprised the GM. He then suggested I post the
strategy here as an interesting use of player tactics. I figured
that there might be other players here that have created similarily
interesting/unique solutions.
-------------------------------------
Skin Change and Animal Growth

Using a Skin Change on a player to become say a Chimera or a
Elephant, then casting Animal Growth on said transformed player
(being a double size Chimera or the triple effected and thus six
times sized Elephant sure does change a combat situation, and it's
really fun playing said transformation).

Rag and String Golems wearing Skin Changes

Since Rag and String Golems are loyal and smart, but rather weak, I
started placing Skin Changes on them. Thus I have a Doppelganger
and a Wyvern.

Sounds very cool as tactics go.

Haven't got a useful tactics but certainly always look for them.

Glad to hear someone is playing in a DQ game. I'm just reading for the moment.

From my days in high school playing DQ:

A Death-Aspected Adept manufactured mouse-pelt rings with Skin
Change. After getting a dupe to put on a ring, he scooped up the
now-mouse-person and popped it in a bag. Then, right before combat,
he'd yank one out and kill it. Instant bonus!

Love to help, but I sold my copy to a local gaming

about three day's drive away!

I don't *recall* any differences. Although the
inclusion of the GMs screen certainly made running DQ
a *lot* easier!

The only difference I can remember, it was mentioned in a much earlier
post either here or DQ Rules, is that the Perception was increased from
5 to 8. I think there might have been one other change but I haven't
gone back through the posts to find the specific one. I have the Bantam
2nd Ed, I never saw the boxed one.

    I have a similar set.

    I have 1st edition (I'm extrapolating the changes to update all of the 1st ed weapons that were taken out, to 2nd edition. There are differences that need to be made to update, I'm finding.)

    2nd ed Bantam softcover (with 3 holes so it must have come from the 2nd ed boxed set originally I guess)

    and a 3ed on it's way.

    Hey another question I know eye of the goblin is set in DQ game world (by extrapolation of course) Is there any backstory which says which city has the arena of death or new weapons in that DQ game?

    Also does anyone have all 3 editions of the second edition rules? (Hardbound, Boxed Set, and Softcover) I'd be interested if there were any diffenreces in the hardback or if the cover was the only thing. It sounds like all three 2nd editions were the exact same.

    Subject: Re: Differences/Arena of Death
    As has been noted before, there were some minor differences between (like a change in the base Perception from 5 to 8) the Bantam Edition and the Hard Bound Edition. I can't speak to the boxed 2nd edition.

    I have a similar set.

    I have 1st edition (I'm extrapolating the changes to update all of the 1st ed weapons that were taken out, to 2nd edition. There are differences that need to be made to update, I'm finding.)

    2nd ed Bantam softcover (with 3 holes so it must have come from the 2nd ed boxed set originally I guess)

    and a 3ed on it's way.

    Hey another question I know eye of the goblin is set in DQ game world (by extrapolation of course) Is there any backstory which says which city has the arena of death or new weapons in that DQ game?

    Also does anyone have all 3 editions of the second edition rules? (Hardbound, Boxed Set, and Softcover) I'd be interested if there were any diffenreces in the hardback or if the cover was the only thing. It sounds like all three 2nd editions were the exact same.

        Even I got some english magazines with DQ articles (Images or something like that). The last I got was "Fantasy Gamer magazine RPG Oct 1983".

          Hello

          I am currently playing DQ and IMHO rolling initiative each pulse
          doesn't slow down the game and not rolling it changes a lot the
          battle. If your party attack with their ranged weapons or magic before
          the enemy party, is very diferent that the other way around. And not
          knowing who will win the initiative next pulse affects your strategies
          during battle

          Regards

          While I do think the unarmed combat rules could use a bit of work, might I
          suggest that the problem here is a character with 80+ PS.

          Get the strength back into some semblance of sanity and the rest of the

          Other than Dragons, the Great White Whale and a Kraken there are no other creatures in the MM with a PS higher than 70.  So it's safe to say the reason Unarmed Combat is broken is because you allowed him to have a PS of 80+.  The game was never designed for players to have that kind of strength.  Even Giants don't come close to what your players PS is.

          If on the other hand your allowing a player to play a dragon or something then there should be pretty much nothing that is going to be a challenge anyway.  At least not 1 on 1.   Your going to have to do attacks where there are like 30 or 40 attackers against him to make it a challenge.

          I think there are problems with the unarmed combat
          rules, but Cody's example does seem a little odd.. A
          PC with PS of 80+?! Ahh, we can but dream!

          The specific problem I refer to is that the game
          assumes linear scales for grapples/restrain (16.5 2nd
          edition) but does not assume this for creature
          statistics (sections 66 etc).

          Scaling issues like this are not uncommon in a great
          number of RPGs. This still are a bit of nuissance
          tho'.

          Hi there is there anyone that can scan and email pages 27 and 28 from the first book of first edition. Going through it page by page I noticed a couple of pages gone. Thanks so much :-)

          Oh yeah to those who are interested in my religion/powers of light article. It is coming along good, turns out there is a lot of material to extrapolate from, it's just sifting through the material. Sadly this article will have to wait until I can find a copy of Enchanted Wood.

          So I am moving on to extrapolation of material to form the martial artist skill. Most of the material I do is solely extrapolation.

          Oh yeah this should be considered an unconfirmed rumor, but a buddy of mine from my old gaming group said he had seen photocopies of playtest material on skills and monsters back in the day, but sadly he did not have a copy of them. Not sure if I had mentioned this before.

          Anyone know a playtester from the old days that may still have playtest material. I'm sure the Worldbuilder stuff by Steve Jackson was almost complete as well.

          Well if a chap 50ft tall hits you you will probably die pretty quickly, so
          again the rules seem to simulate that quite well. If the strike chances seem
          to high assign a GM modifier to them to simulate the difficulty of something
          that large hitting a tiny target.

          I'd safdy that the easiest solution would be to cap the bonus you can
          get to the Strike Chance from having high PS. The Damage, that's a
          different thing and harder to solve.

          Then again, giant characters should probably be using a base PS value
          different from other characters for Unarmed Combat due to the way their
          strength is dteermined at character creation.

          Ok gotta ask. Do you have copies that a poor deserving little gamer could pry out of your hands? ;-)

          My view on DQ is pretty much anything playtest is better than no supplement at all :-)

          Well if a chap 50ft tall hits you you will probably die pretty quickly, so
          again the rules seem to simulate that quite well. If the strike chances seem
          to high assign a GM modifier to them to simulate the difficulty of something
          that large hitting a tiny target.

          They will also take damage using their fist.  Of course they can use their strength with their weapons too. 
           
          A giant with a broadsword and a PS 40 can hit for D+9, of course his chance of breaking his weapon also increases.

          Only because no one has bothered creating stats for a titans sword.
           
          Assuming a Giants weapon does +2 or +3 more than normal and the giants strength is only a few points more than a very strong human a titan with 60 additional strength you would be looking at bucket loads more damage.
