House Rules

I want to minimise house rules for this game. One I can think of that is a nod to realism but shouldn't come up much unless the party has no healing at all: If a character is dying and stabilised on 0 hp, they are incapacitated on 0 hp for a week, or until they receive healing that restores at least 1 hp.  In my game Polearm Master requires using weapon two-handed to get the bonus attack.

PC Start Level Highest PC Level New PC Start Level  New PC Start XP & Gear 1-2 1 0, Standard 3-4 2 300, Standard +30 gp 5-6 3 900, +90 gp 7-8 4 2700, +270 gp 9+ 5 6500, +650 gp New PCs may use their starting gold to purchase PHB equipment, and/or items from the following list:  Any Common item from the Common Items list  here , with price as listed (mostly 200gp).

Isn't 5 the max level?

How many sessions are we planning to do in this campaign?

dunno

Simon N. said: dunno Currently I'm planning to run it fortnightly up until Xmas, then will take stock on how things are going. With material from the Essentials Kit & its follow-on adventures there is potentially material for up through 13th level, and I have the 4e Neverwinter Campaign Setting which could also be used. But I might want to do something else instead.
