    How should I pronounce Tiefling?

    Tiefling uses a hebrew H sound and a japanese R. In IPA you'd spell it "george".

    Continuing beyond Healing Surges

    Monster nest, for example, dungeon, you know, anyplace where you can walk less than 300ft and find another monthers. Anyways, to the topic: Your solution doesn't seem to fix the surge problem. People are still going to run out of surges. Unless you mean that with Fatigue you don't track surges...

    Reasoning behind Extended Rests?

    The obvious solution to the 15mwd is to beef up milestones. For example, all of your item daily powers can be refreshed in addition to giving you that extra item daily activation charge. Then, give everyone a +1 to hit. There, now the party is in some ways stronger than they would be if they...

    D&D 4E 4E Powers and "magic points"

    I forgot to mention that many encounter powers that miss and do nothing on a miss should be almost trivially recoverable. The fact that nothing happened should already be penalty enough. Also, there is a group of daily powers that simply do half damage on a miss. They're generally inferior to...

    D&D 4E 4E Powers and "magic points"

    I'm toying with an all PP based system for 3.5 that incorporates a battle-rechargeable pool of PP as well as a daily PP pool. I'll say that At-Will powers should probably cost 0, and restoring 10/hour kinda messes with 4e assumptions compared to a 5 minute short rest. Also, you could have...

    How would you improve 4e class powers?

    A problem is that daily powers should probably almost never be recoverable, but encounter powers should be more easily recoverable. Particularly when you miss with an encounter power (assuming no effect on a miss), you should probably be able to do something to get it back (maybe spend a move...

    4E and Level Advancement

    If 2 levels in 1 adventure seems fast for you, our group's pace would make your eyes fall out. Since 4e came out we've run 2 major games that are still going, the slower of which is already up to 8th level, the faster paced one is up to 15th level. Other games that didn't get so far collapsed...

    So I have the Martial Powers book.

    You forgot to mention more about the Godkiller...

    So I have the Martial Powers book.

    Can you say anything about the theme of each paragon path? I'm particularly interested in Godslayer... sounds like it might be very soon appropriate for a game I'm in.

    What Level is a Guardsman?

    I split all settlements into 3 main groups: Village, Town, City. "Village" defines most farming communities and minor trade posts (pop 100-1000). "City" is any civilization built up around a teleportation circle (but not a military base, wizard lab, etc). Any place rated as "City" just crawls...

    New Race for Review - Minotaur (civilized)

    4e is designed to only have 10 languages ever because they wanted to cut down on language barriers being a source of problems for PCs. You should probably list something like "Giant, Common" for groups that aren't using expanded language rules.

    Stalker0's Alternate Core Skill Challenge System: FINAL VERSION 1.8!

    Actually, there were two groups worth of PCs there (the group I run and the group I play in). The party is usually 3 to 4 players big depending on who shows up, and the group I run already hit one TPK so far >_<. It's alright though, all but one of us loves making the characters and looking at...

    Stalker0's Alternate Core Skill Challenge System: FINAL VERSION 1.8!

    A system so good I registered just to ask about it. I did a quick survey of the level 1 characters I had around from DMing my own game and from a game I'm playing in (8 characters total), and the average trained skill bonus was only +7.8. This is mostly because my players don't get as many 18s...
