Hi there!
My friend asked me to run a campaign, I said 'yes' and we dove into the rules to make some logical adjustments.
And then we came to some magic tricks and non-standart usage of magic items. Like that story about 'paladin granade' (via 'gaseous form' spell) or 'dwarven army in bag of holding' etc., etc., etc. (I'm sure you've got more stories then I have).
And so we arguing -- he's saying that we need to ban things like this, because 'then why nobody else in the world not using those things', and I'm feeling quite reluctant about this, 'cos I see it like restricting players creativity.
Not sure what I should do -- he's more expirienced in mechanics and since I'm more a storyteller-type of GM than 'I know every rule and mechanic, you can't cheat me around', I usually trust his judgement, but... it just not feels completely right to me.
Maybe somebody had some experience like this? Any advice, please?
