    D&D 4E For the post 4E world, what will your game be?

    R: For the post 4E world, what will your game be? I am currently running a Hunter the Vigil game that`s going to wind down soon, and after that, we are going back to DnD (actually, it will be the first time for a couple of my players). My plan is to run a Paizo AP but with 4e rules, since I...

    D&D 5E Coming Around on the "Not D&D" D&D Next Train

    R: Coming Around on the "Not D&D" D&D Next Train In the first months of 4e, Dragon mag (back then still just a collection of online articles) had a series about character/class conversion. It was very rough, sure, but at least it was acknowledged in an official source.

    4th Edition D&D Collector's Guide

    First of all - great work Echohawk! Second, I have a question... what's up with the "unreleased" RPGA adventures? Were they planned but never made available to events, did they have a limited distribution or what? I know it's probably a stupid question, but I live outside the US and I'm not...

    Divine Power - what's the verdict?

    Actually, Divine Power has several bits of fluff about the pantheon of the implied setting, hidden in sidebars here and there in the power lists. Things like a list of dead gods, or how the Raven Queen came to power. Nothing stellar, and if you don't care about the implied setting it won't do...

    Edition War Across the Net or Where Have You Been?

    To add to my previous post: There are several (not many) negative comments even on the official 4e "fan" page on Facebook, in spite of the lack of anonimity. I've also heard of strange things happening at a couple small cons around here, like people signing up for 4e games and then refusing to play.

    Edition War Across the Net or Where Have You Been?

    Each and every Italian rpg community. MTGsalvation (a forum about Magic the Gathering, esp. fluffwise) Aintitcoolnews and pretty much every other site with a review of 4e. Even Tvtropes.

    Ranger and Heavy Blade Opportunity

    Hit and Run doesn't make you move (like Frenzied Skirmish, for example), it just prevents the OA for moving. The ranger would just attack. ;-)

    Disciple of the Lich Paragon Path

    Great suggestions, let's see what we can do. :) THE ENCOUNTER POWER I really like rowport's idea - the power gives CA if the target is already cursed. I'm going to try it out in-game but it seems appropriate. THE UTILITY I'm not sure about this one. As I said, I tend to "play it safe", so in...

    What have been your best/worst 4e combat encounters?

    I'm a DM and I'm running a converted Red hand of Doom; the party started at 8th level and now is 10th. Worst encounter so far: a Solo Fen Hydra, with a slight level adjustment. The hydra in nothing more than a huge HP bucket, with four attacks per round that do little damage and nothing else...

    Disciple of the Lich Paragon Path

    Thank you for the feedback. :) The intent here was to have two possible outcomes, but clearly there's a problem with the wording - if there's any suggestion that doesn't come out too complicated, that'd be great. Re: stunning - what if it's dazed instead?

    Disciple of the Lich Paragon Path

    Hi everyone :-) As a DM, I've always been a thinkerer - I love to make up new material for my homebrew campaigns, and this time it's not different. However, since I'm not 100% sure about my "balancing" capabilities with the new edition, if someone could give my work a look it would be great...

    Keep your WOW TALK out of my D&D

    I've got these two guys who keep using the word "gold" for every treasure they find - the thing is, we are in Italy and play the game in Italian :eek: They also insist on calling the minotaurs "Tauren"...

    Creating a PC - What if you don't know who's on your team?

    This - actually, Ritual Caster gives you the Knock ritual and a couple other that essentially boost other "situational" skills, so I'd say that given the OP's premises it's quite a solid choice.

    Monsters with levels lower than PCs - useless?

    I know that this may not be the most useful answer, but as always, it depends on the monsters and the party setup. IME monsters a couple levels lower than the PCs are still credible threats, but this may not always be the case.
