A quick Note About Monster v Monster Encounters

 Without spoiling, the latest episode requires the use of a ruling to allow monsters who can only be hit by magical weapons to face off against other monsters. I used the rule from AD&D that says in the case of monsters, sufficient Hit Dice enable them to attack immune creatures as if they were fighting with magical weapons. 

Table 48 lists various numbers of Hit Dice and their magical weapon equivalents.

Hangin' Out With Brian From Swords vs Madness

Yesterday I got to spend the afternoon talking all things pod and rpg with the creator of Swords vs Madness. Brian has a lot of irons in the fire, including building and managing the SRPN website (that's the Solo Roleplayers Network) that we launched a year ago.
