    D&D 4E Is 4E doing it for you?

    I admit I haven't read through the whole thread but I can tell you our groups totally dig 4E. So much better for me personally to play and by far to run over 3.5. Running 3.5 is actually not really any fun for me and feels a lot more like work, while running 4E is an absolute blast and so much...

    GNOgaming editable PDF character sheets

    Some suggestions: 1. A way to color the power cards and the power strips. Basically some way to more easily tell the difference between at-will, encounter and daily powers. Or maybe just some shading behind the strips to see them a part more easily. 2. Can you move the power cards around. I...

    New free gamer tools at Epic Words

    I am finishing up gm'ing a 3.5 campaign, play in a 3.5 (Pathfinder) and a 4e game and for all of them as a player and gm, I've found this site to be very useful. The site has a lot of potential and the developers are very keen to accommodating user feedback. I would for sure give it a shot as a...

    GNOgaming editable PDF character sheets

    Really like the sheet, best one yet I think! :) One request though, a place to show your ability mod + 1/2 your level since that comes up a lot more often than just your straight ability mod. Thanks!

    D&D 4E Halivar's 4E auto-calculating character sheet v.2.03 (OpenOffice, Excel & blank PDF)

    Hey Grinnen... I like your sheet a lot. Any chance of adding a 1/2 your level mod box to the abilities. I find that you need to know you mod+1/2 level a lot more than just your mod. Also maybe a small place for marking your Daily Item Powers usage? Thanks!

    Dungeon Tiles - Photos

    I agree the Cavern Set is hard to use as a full layout. I've found the Skeleton Key .pdf caverns are more versatile. Although I've used a combo of the two a few times that has worked ok. I've even used a combo of Flipmats and DTs before that worked ok. The Flipmat will always be more versatile...

    Mamacat's helpful hints for gaming with couples with or without kids

    I am saying that if your kids disrupt the game night every week it is a burden you are putting on your gaming buddies that I don't think is fair. If you are able to deal with your children for a few hours a week in a way that everyone is cool with then that is great. I would be all for that...

    Mamacat's helpful hints for gaming with couples with or without kids

    Our gaming group of 6-7 people are in their 20s and mostly 30s and have no kids. I know plenty of couples with kids as well. There is no way I'd run a game with young children around while we were trying to actually relax and game for a few hours. No way. It's enough work getting everyone's...

    Dungeon Tiles - Photos

    I've posted about terrain usage several times. I use WOTC DTs, printed .pdf tiles, Flipmats w/dry erase, scanned and printed module maps and Dundjinni printed maps all as time and need allows. Right now I am using WOTC DTs and .pdfs printed tiles the most. I made some 26x40 foamcore play boards...

    Female opinions, please

    My wife totally digs 4E way more than 3.5e, that we are finishing up our campaigns with now. She like the art, play-style, fun-balance and pretty much the overall vibe over 3.5E. She says she is much more conifdent playing 4E and that she will get way more in to it over 3.5E. Plus, she is...

    Dungeon tiles and battle map issues – help?

    Hey, you don't happen to still have the scanned map files for Keep on the Shadowfell? I'd be very interested in getting a copy if I could. Of course I own KoTS, but man this would save me a ton of time. Maybe something I could trade for them or something? :) Thanks!

    Dungeon tiles and battle map issues – help?

    The problem with a projector, and I do already have one in my home theater next to the gaming area, is the throw distance. I'd be better off with a 42" LCD panel in the table but I'm not sure this is the best bet at this time. I did some work on taking scanned/.pdf images out of a module and...

    Coolest. Gaming Set-up. Evar.

    The problem for one thing is the throw distance. I want a 34 x 45 4:3 image, but the projector is going to only be about 4 feet away with 7" ceilings down on to the table. Right now I don't see how this could happen. Ideas? Right now I'm looking at around 18 x 25 max, a 42" LCD flat panel on...

    Dungeon tiles and battle map issues – help?

    You still have to make all the maps by hand, and then set up the FOW. This is very time consuming, no?

    Dungeon tiles and battle map issues – help?

    This is the same situation as if I set up the tiles ahead of time, or use a Dundjinni map, I just cover the sections with colored paper and pull them off as the party goes to the next area. This covering compared to the labor and quality of all the other options is worth it to me by a gigantic...

    No stat blocks in modules per the GSL?

    This is really going to hurt 3rd part modules. I think this is terrible, and will pretty much stop me from buying any non-WOTC modules. Which sucks, because I am a big Goodman Games fan. Sad :(

    Dungeon tiles and battle map issues – help?

    Dungeon tiles and battle map issues – help? Ok, first off we love using miniatures while gaming, so that leads us to trying to use “cooler” and more fun, yet efficient terrain. Here are my problems/issues: 1. Using WOTC Dungeon Tiles or other published pre-printed tiles. They only work well...

    4e D&D GSL Live

    No stat blocks will kill 3rd party modules. Without these forget it, what a waste. Totally sucks for good companies such as Goodman Games. Sad, really... And I really like 4E a lot but this sucks.
