Any chance you'll expand this to other cultures? Middle Eastern, Meso-American, anything?

The what now? I haven't heard of 4e Power Tools and didn't see anything on a quick google search. Mind linking? I'm very intrigued.

Awesome thread and quite an ambition! One set of creatures that I've found myself missing come from the genie group. I know 4e professes to want to 'end pointless symmetry', but the lack of the marids and daos has bothered me. I had hopes we'd see the Dao in MM3 since they were mentioned in...

Thats pretty awesome actually. I imagine they didn't include them due to the whole 'economy of actions' business. Still, they might be appropriate for the right kind of group / game. Could you post / PM the rest?

My first exposure to D&D was the classic PC game, Baldur's Gate, and its sequels. The game manual inspired my first attempts at running pen & paper games, though they were quickly replaced by the release and my subsequent purchase of the 3rd edition D&D rules. In the intervening 10 years, I've...

This is exactly the right point to make. A failed reflex save means the character was caught by the area attack without reacting in time and suffered for it. Making your save means you were able to duck your head, cover your face, or what have you to soak up the attack and keep going without...

Wouldn't the party run out of healing surges eventually? I speak entirely on theory here, I haven't run a party like you are suggesting. I understand the concern about the heal-a-thon, but I imagine at the point you reach 3 leaders, you've really hit diminishing returns for the group on the...

Another idea might be to simply make some kind of physical manifestation of their conquests. Maybe each part of the world you want them to visit has some kind of token of power. Acquiring these tokens of power is what enables the characters to grow in power. This takes out the metagame problems...

I've been playing with Maptools for some time now, though we don't use voice chat, just regular chat. My group has always met through chat rooms, so that part doesn't bother us. I have yet to switch to 4e full time yet, but I'm planning to do so. Does anybody have some good tips specifically...

Howdy U_K, Considering all the shake-ups with the product lineup now that you're making the transition to 4e, what will become of your plans to present pantheon creation rules? Will they appear in Godsend or will they be delayed until after the 4e books have begun rolling out? If they aren't...

When were you thinking you'd post your document? I'd like to see how it changes to reflect the content thats supposedly in KotOR and Force Unleashed.

Howdy, I'm a fairly regular gamer who has been playing online (AIM chatrooms mainly) for years in mostly D20 systems, but I've dabbled in some L5R. My regular group has been extremely inconsistent and I'm looking for a campaign to play. I don't really want to play something that changes up too...

So I'm somewhat of a grand strategy game junkie these days, mostly dabbling in Paradox's games like Europa Universalis and Crusader Kings or others like Galactic Civilizations. However, I'm looking for a new game to sink my teeth into with a theme of space colonization (more or less Galactic...

It seems our beloved game has found its way into the news again, if only as a tangential reference. http://www.cnn.com/2007/US/12/16/armored.car.company.ap/index.html?eref=rss_topstories I can't really tell if the author assumes these peoples' 'fantasy lives' made them more likely to commit...

Howdy, I receive my bachelor's degree in May and to celebrate I've decided to plan a trip with a few friends for about 10-14 days to Ireland. A few things first: I've never been out of the United States and my means are fairly limited - so I'm trying to keep travel down as much as possible...
