It's an interesting idea, but I think it holds the possibilty of attracting unwanted player behaviour. Fighting becomes a gamble, but personally I couldn't stand things like Wik implies. Imagine this: The pcs, already battle hardened and experienced (e.g. around 10 level), could search for a...

I get a distinct Gears of War 2 Horde feeling. I like it!

I'd definately check it out. I really like the D&D podcast, even though it's difficult to understand at times (because of the bad production values). But I like this stuff, keeps me entertained while on the train or driving the car.

I know, I know, this thread is already undead, but... sadly, the Random Dungeon Title Generator isn't online anymore. Has the link changed or is somebody able and willing to upload this neat little script again? Who created it in first place? Cheers, Marcus

I'm 25 and have read Leiber, Howard, Tolkien, Moorcock and Pratchett. Loved all of them, but Howard's my clear favorite. I've got Dying Earth, but have yet to read it. I'd love to read Mieville. :)

I've voted for "locations", but in the end I don't really care - all your "one million..." threads are totally awesome!

"Hello and welcome to the D&D podcast. I'm David Noonan..." :(

Having played and run CoC d20 quite often (with yesterday being the most recent session as a player), I heartily recommened it for heroic and non-heroic Cthulhu alike. :)

I think what he tried to say is not that they are "in the 3rd printing from a business perspective". He hasn't talked about business before, but now he does. And on that front he is proud to say: It's in the 3rd printing. At least that's how I read it. Cheers, Marcus Edit: Ooops, too slow...

Great post, I hadn't thought about the possibilities before :)

With the exception of a one shot adventure, I never came into contact with Earthdawn. With the release for D&D4, this will definately change - sounds intriguing!

Thanks for the answers so far! :) Huh... is there any special way to encourage players to search for secret doors in a reasonable way, without slowing down the game too much? If there is no other way for the players to notice the possibility of a secret door, what keeps the players from...

Well, yes. But that on the other hand does imply that (just a guess) 9 out of 10 secret doors will never be found, doesn't it? There may the the rare exception (like the possibility of suddenly vanishing monsters you mention - but that's clearly not always possible) but most of the time the...

Hi there, how do you people handle secret doors? Say your group wanders through a passageway and comes across a secret door. Do you automatically let them make a Perception/Search/whatever check to see if they notice it? Roll in secret behind the dm screen? How do you handle it? Reading through...

It's on page 27 in the PHB, under "Hit Points". If you increase your Con by 1, you'll have to add 1 hp to your total. Cheers, Marcus
