My Altervista Site is Down…

Hi all,

My free AD&D3E site has limited bandwidth (30Gb/month) and is temporarily disabled if that is exceeded.

This past month, I paid to have that upgraded to 50Gb/month but traffic still exceeded that… so I’m thinking that it got hit with a Denial of Service attack. My site gets some traffic but not THAT much!

The good news is that you can download the files from my Blog:

AD&D3E Files

Greyhawk Resources for AD&D3E

BX3E Download

AD&D3E and BX3E Covers

This site shouldn’t have any problems handling traffic and offers much better download speeds.

Happy gaming,

Scruffygrognard!

Slow Going… but Going!

I’ve been slowly making my way through the Player’s Handbook, tweaking some terminology and making minor adjustments/corrections to the rules.

One question:

Should I change the Hit Die Type for Assassins and Thieves to a d8? My thought is that I should, since those classes are often in melee combat, where they should “stick-and-move” rather than stand toe-to-toe with their foes. Still, as non-casters, they could do with a small boost (gaining an average of 1 Hit Point/level if I make the change).

At this point, my working title is Heroes & Hexes but that could change. Also, for the first run of changes, I’m only changing the title and tweaking/correcting the rules. The classic art from AD&D will remain the same until I’ve re-printed and playtested the updated rules. If that goes well, my next step would be to rewrite the flavor text while adding new art.
