Anyone else have an opinion?

Under this format, I wouldn't be booting anybody. There would not be a 'leaderboard' or any other impetus for competition - the competition would simply be to see how high your team can go (3 consecutive losses = mandatory retirement, which I didn't mention in the original post). So really, if...

Greetings. I've been wanting to run a 4E pbp game for a couple of months now, and have finally decided to run an arena campaign. I've already developed the arena system I'll be using, as I run it IRL. However, I would like some input on converting it to online play. The basic concept is that...

My favorites because there is more to them than slogging through a dungeon: Against the Cult of the Reptile God Sinister Secret of Saltmarsh Destiny of Kings Honorable Mention: Journey to the Rock Classic Dungeon Slogs: Keep on the Borderlands In Search of the Unknown Castle Caldwell Palace...

I've been toying with an idea to speed up the glacial pace of combat in PBP games. This borrows heavily from the Core Coliseum on the WotC boards, and is something of an amalgamation of the conventional PBP format and the moderated battle format used in the CoCo. The basic idea is that the...

Superior cover or total concealment are also -5, and other situational modifiers could apply as well. So never say never. Kinda discouraging that Careful is so inferior though. I made a human ranger because I liked Careful, Twin, and Nimble. I suspect there might still be situational uses...

After experimenting with various solutions to powers, from writing them all down, to printing the character builder cards, to downloading user-made card-sets, to printing out complete power lists from Ema's site (which has since been C&D'ed it appears) our group has not found an ideal solution...

Yep and Resistances/Vulns with a DC 25.

Hi I am currently running two campaigns, each with a single player. One guy is running three characters (a Dragonborn Pally, a Human Wizard, and an Eladrin Rogue). He has been through all of H1 and is about 25% of the way through H2. I reduced encounters proportionally and it worked out...

'Not cool' is an understatement. This product is a blatant rip-off, and that is exactly how I felt after opening it. Sigh. I really wish another company owned D&D. Pretty much any other company.

Absolutely not. The stealth rules hinge on ambiguous phrasings that people are interpreting in all manner of ways. This is coming from the perspective of a DM that has already wasted too much time at the table trying to figure out the proper way to adjudicate stealth consistently. I don't...

Even if the circumstance can occur, it isn't problematic. Simply make one die roll and apply modifiers independently for each condition.

Conspicuous in their absence are Minotaurs.

Bah, acknowledging something exists and advocacy are two different things. I didn't advocate squat. But I digress. It's your house and I will have to respect your rules and your decision to censor me, much as I find it unpalatable. I won't broach that subject again.

Wanna arm-wrestle? ;) :devil:
