If the K'bolds were to weak, you could have used some G'blins instead. :)

Awesome podcast. Makes me want to sit down and really give the words of Power system a solid read-thru

I love the podcasts. Can't wait to listen to the Vehicles and Player Types episodes. All the previous ones rocked.

Hi, I have a few minutes to spare and have been wanting to throw in my .02 cents on the Chronicles Pod casts, hopefully this is not the entirely wrong place to do so... I LOVE the podcasts, and look foreword to each of them. I'm not a big fan of all the movie/tv sound drops/quotes, but it...

I would disagree with this point. Unless you KNOW that the person you are talking to has some interest in gaming, or is into alot of sci fi type stuff, I would avoid the RPG subject altogether. Save it for AFTER you are much more familiar with the person. Once they know you and realize that you...

I remember using one back in the mid-eighties 1st Ed AD&D. I was new to DMing and the Aboleth was used pretty much just as a mindless aquatic brute. I'm not sure I read anything other than the stat block on that encounter, but that was typical in those younger days.

Idea: Allow PCs to recharge one Encounter power by taking a second wind and spending a Healing Surge Two ways to do this... 1. Normal Second Wind. Spend Healing Surge for healing, plus a second Healing Surge to recharge one spent Encounter power. 2. Second Wind. Spend one Healing Surge to...

One thing I always hated with D&D combat is that all characters/monsters are just as effective in combat from full Hp all the way down to 1 Hp. The Bloodied mechanic from 4E presents an opportunity to experiment with some fixes for this pet peeve of mine. First Idea: Bloodied = condition. -1...

I would not absolute rule out male players playing female PC's, but I would definitely STRONGLY discourage it in my campaign. The one guy who I gamed with long ago who played female characters was also the type of D&D gamer who named his characters "Tofu" and "Tora Muscle" in an otherwise...

I dont think I've ever had a rule against it, but to me it's just odd to have a grown man sitting across the table trying to put forth a female persona. As DM, I often have to play a female PC, more out of necessity than desire to do so. So I guess on those occasions, I'm the grown man...

Excerpts: DU2 Streets of Shadow

The wizards site has complete pictures of both sides of all tiles in this set. If I find the link before someone else posts it, I'll post it on this thread. The pix of this set look great, IMO.

After Mouseferatu's post I sat down and (GASP) re-read the rules a little closer and you are correct. The fighter can make an "Opportunity Attack" each "Turn" that a different creature provokes. It is not an "Immediate" or "Interrupt" which is limited to once per round, and not on the...

Some replies have suggested that the fighter can only attack one opponent/kobold per turn, thus allowing the others free reign to move away. That is not correct, as someone pointed out. That Combat Superiority attack against marked foes that are shifting is an interrupt that can be used once...

Any other DM's feel that the Fighters Marking ability takes some of the fun out of running monsters in combat? For example: If I have a bunch of shifty Kobolds, suddenly marked by the fighter, they are now essentially rooted to the ground and forced into a static toe-to-toe hackfest with the...
