I'm starting to chronicle my game, Situational Blindness, onto my blog. I'll be posting up links as I update the story. Here's the characters involved so far. Here's Season 1, Part 1: Meeting People. Enjoy! When I update the blog I'll post the link here. Comments are appreciated. Be...

So they're talking about all the classes from every single Player's Handbook, right? What's that look like?

Or just one of them? After DMing 4th edition since the beginning I finally sat down to read DMG and DMG2, and I am amazed. If people actually read this thing, I don't think there would be half the problems with 4th edition that people have. Dunno, still a bit in shock. Thoughts?

So I'm currently working on some "fixes" for 4th edition for my blog, and the classes in the title are my thought experiments. Assassin: Spike damage isn't good enough. Battlemind: Desperately needs Constitution for MBA's and the Mind Spike isn't as effective as it looks. Vampire: Just...

I was sold when they used a Stardust quote. I cannot WAIT for this book to come out!

I guess I better give this a caveat: I hate the half level ascension of 4th edition, so much so that I'm removing it (and the other ascending maths) from my game. Realize my bias, but please also understand that the following is part of my justification for removing half level stuff related to...

So I was on one of the Legends and Lore threads when the following kind of dawned upon me. If this had dawned upon everyone else then you all have laughing rights at me, which I gladly sign over. Mr. Mearls has been talking about how he wants the game to be modular, correct? That's been the...

I was thinking about chronicling my 4E game on the boards, where do I do that?

I'm currently looking at modifying my Player's books on these three classes. What are the principle flaws of the class?

Dungeons & Dragons Roleplaying Game Official Home Page - Article (Head of the Class) I'm liking the direction of this article, honestly. I do wish that they had done Essentials first, but what they're saying makes sense. Makes me want to design that way for my homebrew.

This isn't supposed to be an edition war thread, but just a look at the Pathfinder system as a 4th edition lover.A combination of power gamers and the lackluster paladin class really turned me off to third edition, so I was one of the people who jumped ship at the first announcement of 4th...

So I was looking through the minions of MM1, and thought they were pathetic. I've heard alot of people suggest that cutting their XP in half was a good solution, but more crap is still crap. So, assuming I leave the rest of the monsters RAW, could I just add half level onto the damage of these...

So... I've got the new character builder, right? I can't buy magical weapons because my gold piece limit is at 100. How do I fix this?

Nephilim Average Height 5'6"-7' Speed 6 +2 Str +2 Cha +2 Religion, +2 Insight Senses: Darkvision Languages: Common, Supernal, plus one other Angelic Protection: +1 Reflex and Will Astral Heritage: You may get one at-will from any divine class that you wish. You must choose the other at will...

A little while ago one of my characters picked up a lover in-game. He asked me if I could bring her into combat, and I said no, I wasn't in the mood to add yet ANOTHER person I'd have to keep track of in-game. But, after a little bit of thinking, I came up with this house rule. It's based on the...

I'm running a 2-man campaign with one of my friends, and did we just have a doozy today. We're running a 4e Forgotten Realms game, 11th level. The characters: Ameril: A genasi swordmage. He's the king of Aglarond, and just sent staved off a vampiric assassination. Po Po: An insane drow rogue...

Would it really unbalance things to not only let someone take a paragon path at 11th level but also let them swap out powers as per the paragon path alternative suck rule? So instead of choosing one or the other you just do both?

This is the first draw up of the Nephilim race for my homebrew world, Nendiel. Try and give me a power check here, guys! Am I being too over the top? Nephilim Medium Creature Movement: 6 squares +2 Wis, +2 Cha +2 Insight +2 Religion Senses: Low-light vision. +1 Reflex Purposeful Grace: When...

Hey folks, My friends and I are making a campaign world out of a campaign that's starting to wrap up. We're calling it Nendiel. Here's the Wiki: http://nendiel.wikispaces.com/ The basic set up of the world is this: At one point this world was under attack by the Shadowfell which, under...

Alright, I've got a conundrum here. My party, instead of killing the CR 21 blue dragon that was supposed to mop the floor with them, succeeded in the skill challenge before the fight and made friends with the dragon, who wants to follow them around. The dragon had been trapped in a dungeon for...
