All Editions are welcome and voting will be done via poll after all entries are received. We want to look at overall concept more than concrete mechanics, but munchkin-ing will probably be taken into effect with the voting! ;)


AD- I also suggest allowing a full month for entries. We've tried running contests before and anything less than a month tends to cause problems. :up:

I don't have any classes built, but one of the last things I was playing around with in 2e was using the homebrew class build from the DMG, to allow everybody to custom craft their own class. Never really played it though.

I believe I had something back on my old computer that I can brushup and post here. Problem with classes I conjure up -> ussually there are balance issues. Do you substract alot of points for that or is it accepted that things might have to be tweaked to get it to work within a setting?

There will be a poll posted after the deadline ends to determine the winner, so it'll be up to the minions of PADnD to decide how many points are removed for balance! :up:

me?

Post by Aresdestroyer »

i personally prefer them to be very well balanced, because others may want to include them in a campaign, yes they could balance it themselves, but i don't think they would have the right idea to what you were trying to do with the character
