I don't have access to any of the stores participating in FreeRPG day. I am very interested to get the adventure (big fan of Keith Baker and Eberron). Is there any legal way to get it, for example would it be published as a free download, or can someone (legally) send it to me as a PDF after the...

If a dominated creature is forced to move, or make a ranged attack, does it provoke Opportunity attacks from its enemies? How about provoking Opportunity Attacks from its allies?

For some reason I always thought this meant that only entering/exiting an enemy's space does not provoke OA. Today it dawned on me that possibly the rule (or design intention) is that the movement of a swarm never provokes? Logically this kinda fits with the idea of a swarm. The wording of the...

A friend of mine forbids players to make characters of the opposite gender in his games, saying only that he is very uncomfortable with this. He has no problem with people roleplayng kenkus, minotaurs and half-ogres, but is bothered when a guy makes a female hero or vice versa. I, on the other...

Here are some rules questions that popped up in our recent game. I will be grateful for your opinion on them. 1. A Ranger is using Spitting Cobra stance (Martial Power, page 47). If an enemy within 5 squares shifts closer to him, does he get an opportunity attack against him (does shifting...

From the 4th edition rules primer: "Cover - If an enemy has cover, you get a -2 penalty to attack rolls against it. Your allies don't provide cover, but enemies do." Does the second sentence mean "your allies don't provide cover to you" or "your allies don't provide cover to your enemy"? Can...

Keith Baker posted a lenghty post in his personal blog regarding playing in Eberron when 4E comes out. Check it out at: http://gloomforge.livejournal.com/ Here is an excerpt:

Okay, diagonal movement now costs 1 point. However, does this apply to measuring distances for abilities/powers? For example, the Hunter may designate the nearest foe as its quarry. If he has a foe 5 squares away diagonally is he considered at the same distance as a foe 5 squares away horizontally?

Could someone that has been to the Experience explain the Shadow Walk ability to me, please? It says: "move 3+ squares away on your turn, gain concealment until the end of your next turn". So do I have to move 3 or more squares to gain concealment? If so, what means to "move away"? Or is this...

Keith Baker, the creator of Eberron, has posted more thoughts on 4-th edition in his Livejournal blog. He speaks about the simplicity of the rules and the similary/differences from WoW and other MMOs. You can read his thoughts here: http://gloomforge.livejournal.com/

Looking at the character sheets, it seems that the ranged weapons have entries like: "20 squares normal / 40 squares max". I guess this means that you shoot up to 20 squares with no penalty and up to 40 with a penalty (-2, -5 or something). Can anyone that has played in the game confirm this...
