    D&D Heroscape

    Previews of all the game components (including all the unit cards now) are up at heroscapers. The Fighter is ridiculously cool.

    the perfect soundtrack: horror

    In Last Breaths of Ashenport Ari Marmell suggests the soundtrack to Ravenous. Its pretty good, and if you're playing a Cthulu game set in the USA, its even better. The Donnie Darko soundtrack is pretty creepy too.

    My sweet two whip wielding fighter (PEACH)

    I like it. I noticed the whip stuff with knockdown assault the other day when I was thinking of making an indiana jones-ish character. I ended up going in a different direction, because I like the idea of an angry half-orc whipping baddies to the ground and then punching them with a spiky metal...

    Running the Well of Demons in Thunderspire Labrynth -Warning Spoilers!

    I'm running the Hall of the Crimson Whip this weekend and I'm pretty excited, mostly because I got some Goristros to be the statues. :) I think I'll use the felt for blood too, that seems like a cool idea. It sounds like it works pretty well, but I'm not quite sure how I'm going to modify it...

    DMG 2: Achievements like Xbox-Live in D&D

    I've been doing this for a while now, as a way to get my players to try things outside their comfort zone, or to do things they didn't know they could do. For some of them its a big motivator, and some of them don't care. I've just been giving experience for completion. The special boon things...

    Any good 4e adventures that arent dungeon crawls?

    I can't wait to run Last Breaths. It's definitely a good read, and I'm antsy for my group to finish Thunderspire so I can strand them in Ashenport. :) I just hope I can convey the creepy feel it has...

    City/Town Encounters -- AD&D1 DMG

    Because random charts are the greatest! I need to get a hold of these old 1e books I read as a kid so can unleash the randomness on my players. :)

    Barbarians - Anything I should look for?

    Apparently the barbarian pregen at the DnDXP had his CON mod added to his AC (I'm assuming only if he's wearing light armor) so I'm allowing the barbarian player in my campaign to do the same until we get the book and see for sure. He wasn't dieing before, but he was eating up most of the...

    D&D 4E How to build encounters in 4e (aka Only you can prevent Grindspace!)

    Great stuff. My players (all completely new to tabletop gaming) all get really sad when an encounter or daily power misses. I think they would all prefer to be rocking the bad guys than slogging through a bunch of soldiers too, so your cool list of PC likes and dislikes is much appreciated...

    Our KOTS TPK (Warning: KOTS spoiler info)

    My players convinced some kobolds from outside the waterfall to help them depose their evil leader. The kobolds lured the dragonshields and wyrmpriest outside and the party blindsided them (my dragonshields looked up to irontooth, but the minions were the unfortunate underlings). After that...
