As a player, I would definitely hate it if it happened repeatedly. As a GM, I would never overdo it. While it's great at times to have a villain thought long dead make another appearance, I feel that it's got to be under the right circumstances. Plus, in the world of villainy, is there a really...

There absolutely MUST be a Rule 0. I loathe the DM philosophy that "if it's in the book, I must allow it in my game".

Ahhh...and suddenly it all makes sense. Thanks!

Is it just me, or has anyone else noticed that the News forum isn't sequenced the same as the others? All the forums I go to are in date sequence with newest at the top, except News, which I have to specifically sort to get it that way. If it's just me, how do I fix it?

Personally, I'd rather you kept it separate. I liked the one stop shopping aspect, so I could quickly see what was going on from different publishers in one place.

Ghostwind, I have some friends who play 40k that might be interested in the 40k lot. What condition are the minis in? Are they painted or unpainted?

A valid point, no doubt. However, what if the Rogue needs to pick the lock on a door? Is it necessary for everyone else in the party to actually help pick the lock? No, the rest of them are going to watch his back, continue searching, whatever, but the Rogue gets his moment to use his abilities...

Could it have been this? Venture 4th: Characters By Level - Adamant Entertainment | RPGNow.com

Yes. This reminds me of a very good piece of advice I saw - always say your NPC names out loud when you create them, so you can catch the ones that will make your players lose it with laughter!

Nice map - but it's a little big!! ;)

I'd be happy to take a look and then keep my mouth shut...

I'll second Gnome Stew. If you are a GM, it's invaluable.

For another modern take on 4e, take a look at this thread in the industry forum. My group has playtested some of their stuff, and it's pretty good. They are working on a Cyberpunk setting called Neurospasta, and a "generic" modern port of 4e called Ultramodern4. I'm very interested to see how...

I would take a look at ICONS, it's light, simple, and plays well. I'm running a campaign with it right now and my players are having a ball.

They are also leaving out those who WERE subscribers, but aren't anymore. That to me is a big mistake, as they could be finding out why those folks discontinued their subs.

Yeah, I received an email last week telling me that my sub was going to expire soon, and the interesting thing to note was that they included this little tidbit: "Please note -- if you want to use Manual Renewal again, you will need to notify Customer Service in order to turn off Auto-Renew on...

For a roleplaying fix, Fiasco is an awesome pickup game. For non-roleplaying, my group enjoys Cutthroat Caverns, Ninja Burger, and the Paranoia Card Game (which we need to play again soon!)

Lots of good advice so far that hit most of the points I would have made. As for general GM advice, it's hard to beat Gnome Stew. Not only do they have tons of articles loaded with helpful advice, but they are also more than happy to take suggestions for new articles if you post something in...

Don't do it man! -er, I mean CONGRATULATIONS!!!:lol:

If I recall correctly from looking at that character's sheet, the "7" next to healing surges is the VALUE of each surge, and the number of surges you get is equal to the boxes to the right of that...which I think add up to 12.
