can you link to it please?

I'd like to see (in no particular order) Alternatives to the at will / encounter / daily / utility power set up (I like variety) A customizable skill system A focus on non-combat powers (I like statistics to back up my background) A decent D&D economy (can't stand the way it's handled now)...

I love DMing the game. It's everything I wish 3rd ed had been on the DM side of the screen. I hate playing a character. It's a toss-up between the way treasure is handled or the non-combat features of character classes.

Ptolus (3.5ed) has magical properties for fire arms and magical weapons including a demon possessed gun and magnetic bullets!

I can't thing of a published adventure from 3 or 4th ed that would fit your needs. I think there was a book of challenges early in 3.0... A few ideas: Thieves guilds could use the roof tops as a sort of black market road. Farmers grouping together to keep food prices high. Highwaymen (skyway...

Do you have a link to this site?

I like this. I'm constantly forgetting to hand out action points and my players still haven't gotten into the swing of using them. I was thinking about awarding players an action point whenever they use a daily power rather than every two encounters, in the hopes it would eliminate the save it...

To clarify: If you use alongsword (1D8 damage) and your power tells you 2[W]. You deal 2D8 damage. Using a dager you only do 2D4 damage...

Has anyon bought the Kingdoms of Kalamar 4th edition campaign setting? If so what do you think of it? Trying to decide if I should pick it up.. :confused:

I see the skills list players have as skills useful to adventurers, a baker or sailor would have access to a different list of skills, daily powers etc.. Obviously there is no need to write up the class description for a sailor, but if a player wishes to expand her knowledge into this area I'd...

Or it could be a hybrid, sourcing it's powers from both Divine and Arcane? How important is to hold to the power sources? Are they hard and fast rules or guides to class design and use?

Have you ever seen The Chronicles of Riddick? I'm thinking about how quickly the bad guy moves in the final fight sceen... It eleminates the can't be caged aspect of Eladrin, while maintaining the powers basic use. Actually I'd like to know if anyone thinks this is to harsh a down grade? I...
