    Failures of a new DM, and how to correct it?

    Oh don't worry. I'm not giving them anything for free. I'm actually going to be rebooting them this week. They are all going to be waking up outside of town this week. No clue how they got there or why. I'm going to make them tell me why they are all grouping together and what their driving...

    Failures of a new DM, and how to correct it?

    Ha. Gonna get all girly here for a minute. I never thought of it that way. It actually made me smile. :p I more worry that I'm robbing them of the best gaming experience. I honestly don't mind the number of players, I just want to ensure that its enjoyable and engaging for everyone involved.

    Failures of a new DM, and how to correct it?

    We do have fun, I try to still keep it entertaining. I'm thinking of making a time limit on round decisions to help speed things along.

    Failures of a new DM, and how to correct it?

    Those are good ideas. Thank you. As far as characters being op, they took out a clan of 5 friday giants and a frost titan. They tend to zerg any mobs and simply over take them with sheer numbers. That's why I'm hoping a higher level campaign will help challenge them more.

    Failures of a new DM, and how to correct it?

    Everyone plays well together and the group dynamic is great, which is part of my problem. There is no jerk to boot and reduce group size. I'm not giving them free levels, I'm sticking all the level 10's in a level 15 campaign and giving minimal reward. The main problem run into, and what started...

    Failures of a new DM, and how to correct it?

    I am/was a new dm, with a few new (no gaming experience) players and a couple experienced players. I had concern that the new players, mainly my wife, would become bored with playing so I thought I would be making things more exciting. So mistake number one, I let my players become to strong...

    Wooden Table vs Virtual Table

    I basically would love to turn a big flat panel into our gaming table. Playing right on top of it. Sadly until I win a few lotteries... Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk

    Wooden Table vs Virtual Table

    I personally would like a mix of both. A table top game played over a digital screen like playing on a protected flat panel tv to auto populate the map and monsters. But still giving pc's the ability to move there avatars and roll the dice... If only :)

    Help! Is my player cheating?

    Pretty much he is getting double move and actions. I don't feel his intent was malicious, I just think he liked the twins idea. he had also never played 4e, so he was basing his original design off of what he knew from 3.5

    Help! Is my player cheating?

    Man I want his dice. My players are generally successful because of my poor rolls : p and my wife has the luckiest dice I've ever seen, if I didn't but them, I'd swear they were fixed. Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk

    Help! Is my player cheating?

    He did use a blackguard template from the CC which is where some of my original confusion came in. based on the CC, the info/dmg output didn't necessarily match. I really think its because I was allowing each twin to be treated individually instead of shared like a summoned.
