    GMing: Transparency and Immersion

    As Reynard's DM I have to chime in- Reynard died so that the party might live. granted, he made an in-game choice that greatly increasedthe challenge, buthe knew that, and his trash-talking the dragon didn't help, BUT, because the dragon was so angered with him, his paladin became the primary...

    I played 4E today. I died.

    Mexican Stand-off: How To?

    here is what I came up with: One character chooses to initiate the Mexican Standoff by foregoing his action for the round and being in visual range of any other character he wishes to engage.
