I don't think it matters much in practice because as you say masterwork equipment is much less important in this game than other (especially in NEW) but what you stated above, which I believe is right except for some corner case, seems directly contrary to what you stated earlier in this thread...

If the intent is to have masterwork equioment more valable to experience character isin't the curent system doing the reverse ? This happenned in my startrek-tyoe game yesterday. The normal crew 4d with master sensors. (+1d) could reach 5d, the same as a beginning PC without the equipment who...

Do you recommand changing the ennemies attack to static number and having the players roll their defense rather than the GM making the die rolls to keep them engaged in the combat ?

Returning to starship combat, here is one more question. The rules specify that a ship has, in addition to its move, a number of actions equal to its class. Assuming a classic stratrek type combat between the enterprise and two Klingons bird of prey (arguably class 8 or above ships) that would...

I see it on page. 26. Strange �� Got it ! Do you plan on having some more detailed pre made ships or even an adventure to help see how we can use the various mechanics such as countdowns or e-warfare to best effect ? As I did not see any reference to a test in the description of the...

Thanks Morrus. I see I had neglected the exploits for the targeting and reinforce shield. For electronic warfare I don't see anything on page 38 but I see some brief description on page 3:26 which must be what you mean unless I am missing something. There is a long description of the various...

I just read the NEW Space PDF plus the Future Core and have a few questions. Although the rules mention CPU cycles and cyber warfare there does not seem to be any explanation of the following : 1- How is cyberwarfare conducted ? 2- What is the effect of losing CPU cycles after a cyber attack...

Interesting product. I will likely combine this with one of the other suggested products. Now I just need to find the best one ! :)

Well I am not looking for an adventure since I am preparing my own. I am more interested in a mini setting wch I can use to place my adventure in.

My campaign is slowly leading my pcs towards a lengthy adventure in a drow city. As such, I was wondering if you could help me find the best supplement describing such a city. As I play 4e , if the supplement is for that edition that is even better, but it is not required. Ideally I would like...

The list is very interesting indeed. Are there others who want to share their creations of magic items ?

Indeed and I create quite a few, but it get tedious and afterall some company if not wizards should fill that need !

Yesterday, I was again utterly disappointed by 4th edition magic items, more particularly a set of drums of panic I gave my players and which I expected to work similarly to previous edition … and then we found out all it does is give +2 dam and +2 to hit on Fear powers.. sigh … crushingly...

The level of complexity of the warpriest that I dislike is not the numbers of it's powers but it is in the powers themselves. I hate all of these powers that do 3 things at the same time ... An attack, remove some conditions plus a bonus to defend or strike for X allies for next turn... Argh ...

Strenght of the poisons This new class seems very flavorful. Definetly a big improvement over the original classes since it offers different mechanics and even outside of combat effect for some of the powers. That being said , shouldn't there be some type of fortitude attack levels for these...

Star Wars Skill chanllenges While I agree that skill challenge are very tricky to execute properly and have a high risk to break the immersion of a scene (especially in social skill challenges), everyone, including Wizard of the coast, is slowly learning how to make them work. DM2 is much...

I really like the fact that they have finaly broken the power structure for the psion. It helps answer one of the most common complaints about 4e, i.e. that all the class feel the same. Too bad they did not venture earlier in that area. I can see Wizards as having a few at wills, no encounters...

Altought I can see the remaining subtle sexism in D&D (lets call it male-centrism) it seems to me that it is rather mild and certainly less so than many other hobbys including most of all professionnal sports and related entertainment. The new editions make it a point to promote strong female...

This is a very good question. I think one solution would be to use the inherent "quantum uncertainty" of monsters of 4e in your favor here. If an encounter is say more than 3 or 4 levels below the party's level, why not do a quick conversion on the spot : Solo becomes Elite, Elites become...

Private International Law For those interested in these matters, the interplay between US and Polish jurisdiction in a case like that is much more complicated than what has been mentioned in previous posts and is determined by a fascinating part of the law called private international law. In...
