    D&D 5E Is there too much gold/reward?

    Assuming Batman is a PC in a someone's game, then that is something for the PLAYER of batman to deal with. Personally, I would not really enjoy playing Batman as a character, since as you say, he could do much more good simply focussing on philanthropy. But if someone else enjoys playing that...

    D&D 5E Is there too much gold/reward?

    You're right, and it would probably make a pretty good Unearthed Arcana article. I just don't want the game to be designed the expect PCs to spend all (or at least most) of their Gold on items (magic or otherwise) to make them more effective in combat. I would just prefer the game to be...

    D&D 5E Is there too much gold/reward?

    I'm glad that there is NOT a functioning Magic Item Economy in the game. It avoids the absurd situation I had in a 3.5 Eberron campaign. My Druid Character returned to his home village at about level 8 or so. The money he had spent on Magic items, was more than enough to set the entire VILLAGE...

    Third Party: If So, Then What?

    This sounds EXACTLY like what I am looking for. I have been dying for someone to produce 3 - 5 encounter adventures. Even better, in this model they come with a plot already linking them. Do it well, and I will even be able to space the encounters out over 3 - 4 levels (I don't mind leveling...

    Possible different types of adventures.

    I've said it before, and I'll keep saying it until someone listens and put sit out so I can buy it, but I want short side treks. Something I can drop into my campaign and deal with in a session (or two at the most), that allows me to weave the rest of the campaign around it and doesn come to...

    Catalyst RED - Buy PDFs at gaming stores

    This sounds like a great idea, as long as I get a discount on the pdf if I buy the dead tree version. If I could go into my FLGS and pick up a copy of the book I was after (say DMG2 @ 50 bucks downunder), and then hand over an extra 5 - 10 bucks for a pdf, I would definitely do that instead of...

    Third Party: If So, Then What?

    My first double post.

    Third Party: If So, Then What?

    This! But even better if you can link 3 or 4 of these absolutely awesome encounters into a short side trek adventure that I can easily drop into my existing campaign, and that will leave a few plot hooks dangling that the players can or choose to run with if they want. Price them at about 2 or...

    Converting 3.5 Eberron adventures to 4E-advice, opinions

    Vary good question. I am planning on converting the Shackled City Adventure Path to 4th edition Eberron over Christmas, so I am very interested in the responses. I have heard very good things about the Viktor trilogy. Thanks for the reminder, I will make sure I use it in my conversion. But...

    [Blackdirge/Goodman] Coming 10/26/2009 - Critter Cache VI: Lovecraftian Bestiary

    This sounds great, and just in time for the planning for me next campaign to boot! Any chance of also getting the critters in xml format for easy importing into the monster builder? Or will i have to do that work myself? I would buy all your monster books if they all came with xml stats for...

    What is Shadow's schtick?

    For more Shadowy goodness, you should checkout Open Designs Latest 4th edition project, Court of the Shadow Fey. We have already started brainstorming themes and feel, and there should be a preview coming in the next week or so.

    One Bad Egg going dark

    This. If you include a file I can easily import into the monster builder with your monsters, I will be all over them in a flash. But I don't want long adventures full of filler encounters that cover 2 - 3 levels of play. I want short adventures of about 6 - 8 encounters / scenes. A couple of...

    My wishlist to improve DDI

    I have been thinking of posting a thread just like this for the past few weeks. Just haven't got around to it, glad someone else did. Thanks I would love to see WotC actually leverage the digital nature of the DDI for everything it is worth. Instead of just what they have at the moment, which...

    First Open Design Project available for public consumption

    I would love to know the answer to this question as well. I am planning on converting the Shackled City AP for my next 4th Ed Eberron campaign, and Tales of Zobeck looks like it could provide some great adventures for such a conversion.
