    Using 4E Monsters in 3E or Pathfinder

    I don't own the D&D 4E books, but I've heard that the monster stats are easier to use as a GM than the 3rd edition versions. Is this true, and if so, how hard would it be to use creatures from the 4E Monster Manuel(s) in a 3E or Pathfinder based game? My group isn't interested in switching to...

    Greetings I am searching for the name of an old arcade fighting game. Here are the details that I can remember about it. You fought in an arena in what seemed like a mythological Greece or Rome. I remember that it was a game where you could walk into the foreground and background as easily...

    Will the 4e forum be merged with the General one?

    Are there plans to un-separate the 4e and the General forums in the near future? Before the 4e announcement, I used to spend a lot more time in the General forum. Now I find that I visit it very rarely since it seems to have drastically dropped in interesting threads (IMO). So I am hoping...

    Alternate Poison Rules

    Does anyone have any alternate rules for making poison more of a threat? I don't like that all poisons have the same onset time, and that after a couple of saves the poison is out of ones system. What would be a good way to model a longer duration and interval between saving throws?

    Methods for Handing Out More Feats

    I want a somewhat balanced way to give my players more feats for their characters. Though, I worry that just upping feat progression to 1 feat per level will completely devalue the fighter class. I am contemplating making available some sort of magic item that would provide permanent access...

    I have never actually used the gestalt rules before, but I am interested in using gestalt characters to represent a group of inately more powerful/versitile beings in the campaign I am preparing. So, I am looking for some advice for mixing gestalts with standard characters. What (if any)...

    Is Dragon Fist dead?

    Once upon a time Green Ronin was going to release a new version of Dragon Fist as an OGL game, but it seems to have vapor-wared itself away. Am I wrong about this? It is something that I was definitely looking forward to, I even had it pre-ordered, but the forum about it on the Green Ronin...

    I need help with Magic of Incarnum

    Can someone please break down how the "Magic of Incarnum" works? I just can't seem to grasp it. I usually don't have problems with new game mechanics, but this must have hit a part of my brain that doesn't function correctly. I will start with a few direct questions, but feel free to try and...

    Iron Heroes and Magic of Incarnum

    Post 1: I have recently bought Magic of Incarnum (but only glanced through it, so far), does anyone think that Iron Heroes and MoI can be combined rather easily. Not that it really matters too much, because in my campaign the classes from magic of Incanum will be likely be part of an...
