Editing The Lawful the Neutral and the Chaotic

This is the home page for Julius Sleazer's B/X D&D campaign.


==House Rules==
1.) Fighter and clerics, when unencumbered (carrying 400 cn or less), get a bonus of -3 to AC (doesn't protect vs. backstab).<br/>
2.) Thieves, when unencumbered (see above), get a -1 bonus to AC (also doesn't protect vs. backstab).<br/>
3.) Fighters and clerics can use their movement to "dive for cover": -2 AC.<br/>
4.) Anyone who is unencumbered (see above) and moves during their action gets -1 AC (it's harder to hit a moving target).<br/>
5.) Anyone who is in full cover is not a valid target.<br/>
6.) Partial cover grants -2 AC.<br/>
7.) Anyone in full cover who shoots only gets -2 AC; they're now considered to be in partial cover.<br/>
8.) Yes, thieves may "backstab" with firearms.<br/>
9.) Max hp at first level for this campaign.<br/>
10.) No clerical weapon restrictions for this campaign with the exception of magic weapons: a cleric can't wield a magic weapon of any weapon type which would be forbidden to the class under standard B/X rules.<br/>
11.)No non-human PCs.<br/>

*Wilderness Encounter Evasion
**Per the book, the party can ALWAYS evade successfully if it has the advantage of surprise.
**Per the book, evasion is totally of the table when the party has [i]been[/i] surprised.
**Dice-rolling on the evasion table comes in when neither side has the advantage of surprise.
**If the reaction roll is 6-12 and the encountered creature is Neutral or Lawful, the party may evade with out a roll in situations where neither party has surprise.
**If the encountered creature(s) is/are Chaotic, the party may only auto-evade on a reaction roll of 9-12 (this will also apply to buccaneers, dervishes, and nomads).
**There is still an element of uncertainty, as some human encounters aren't going to have an obvious alignment.
**As a general rule, no auto-evasion of non-intelligent undead and/or intelligent undead who basically just attack on sight (a reaction roll isn't really appropriate here).  Same would apply to some golems or robots.

==Setting==
The setting doesn't really have much in the way of human-like races. There are plenty of mutants roaming the wastelands, but they're at least humans or close to it. There is an ancient and quasi-human race, likely descended from an unfortunate group of humans bred for brutality and war; I'll call these orcs, since they're 1 HD monsters with a dislike for the sun. Orcs are, in general, pretty far away from the main campaign area.

Rather than being humanoid or demi-human, most foes are either humans (or mutant versions thereof), animals (or mutant versions thereof), or undead. Expect lots of outlaws, giant animals, demons, wolves, bears, ghosts, zombies, vampires, etc. 

Magic and magic-users are present and well-known, but rather more rare than in the average D&D setting. Most magic-users tend to be female (witches and the like), but the most powerful (sorcerers) tend to be male. Magic-users are often (but not invariably) quite evil and selfish. They can still attain a respected (or at least feared) position in society due to the power they wield and the protection which they can offer.

The setting has kind of a dearth of magic weapons, although they're out there. Most magic items found tend to be utility items or potions. That said, adventuresome wanderers are also liable to unearth or otherwise encounter relics of past eras, some of which can prove potent weapons indeed. Purchasing silver, silver-coated, or silver-jacketed weapons or ammunition is slightly *more* common than in the average D&D setting. Holy symbols and holy water are also potent portions of the adventurer's arsenal.
