    Free Keep on the Shadowfell at Wizards.com

    Tonight will be my first opportunity to use the revised material. If all goes as expected, my players should be heading into A2 (so Slink instead of another Skirmisher), and possibly A3 (with the Denwardens and the revised Irontooth) depending on how long it takes to do A2. Rechan, seeing your...

    Tiefling, Dragonborn : have they gained traction ?

    Heh, I play in one group (which has experienced several players coming and going, and a TPK which had us all whip up new characters) and DM another, and I've yet to see a single Eladrin PC (excluding a DMPC wizard used in the very first session I played in, who never appeared again). First PC I...

    Tempest Fighter or Melee Ranger?

    Well, there you go. Better than what I had so far.

    Tempest Fighter or Melee Ranger?

    It's certainly a different idea, which is interesting. The difficulty is that many of your goals conflict with the things you're willing to sacrifice, or with other goals. Flail related feats have DEX requirements, and fighter powers that have flail-related benefits generally key their bonuses...

    Countdown-timer at Green Ronin...? What's it all about?

    As Image is largely made up of separate creator/studio owned properties, there's no way that all of it could be licensed together. Image doesn't, as a company, own the rights to any of the major properties published through it. Characters from Spawn, Invincible, Witchblade, Savage Dragon, and...

    Dragon Editorial: Players 1, DMs 1

    I've long wondered why they weren't split that way.

    Though the gnome's attempts to convince the party that he's a friend are going to be a bit more difficult now that the operation is overseen by a "sinister apparition". "Oh, that thing? Uh... that's my cousin Fred. Cursed, years ago. Doesn't like to talk about it."

    Whats an A Structure?

    Dragon 373. The article is entitled Party Building. The A vs. V shaped bit is fairly far in, on page 30 (the 7th page of the article, if you're reading the seperate file rather than the full issue).

    Free Keep on the Shadowfell at Wizards.com

    There's no actual mechanical change there, at least in my copy. The only difference is now the power mentions Irontooth (rather redundantly, in my opinion). Original: Make a basic attack against two adjacent creatures. Revised: Irontooth makes a basic attack against two adjacent creatures...

    KotS Spoiler: Is this lame?

    That's... awesome. I didn't even have a problem with the thing as described, but that's just very cool. Might have to use it.

    Art of the Kill

    Corellon's Wrath Style, as applied to Commander's Strike in particular, has a couple of problems. 1) Why, when one of the three basic rules of the game is Always Round Down, does this round up? Especially given that every other Warlord power that uses half the Intelligence modifier rounds down...

    Art of the Kill

    Or if you killed them with an Opportunity Attack, or with an attack granted by another character (such as a warlord's Commander's Strike).

    Is 4e bringing new players to the game?

    Wrote a really long post, then decided that brevity was best: I play in one group, DM another. I never played D&D before 4th edition, and probably would never have started without it. I enjoy playing it enough that, when I found that my group couldn't play often enough for my tastes, I bought...

    Forked Thread: If I'm Dominated, and Have no Weapon, am I no threat?

    A Mad Wraith and a couple of hellhounds (with a little bit of help from a wizardy BBEG) wiped out our entire party last session. Mad Wraiths are MEAN.

    Characters in Pictures

    I'd say that the Eladrin is likely a wizard, judging by the staff. That'd also make for a more balanced party, with all of the roles covered and striker doubled up. Also, I think we can safely narrow the Dwarf down to a cleric of Moradin, what with the symbol of Moradin appearing as his holy...

    What class are you least likely to play in 4e?

    I voted cleric (forgetting to log in first, so my name doesn't show up on the votes for it...). It's not that I don't like leader classes: my next character is almost certainly a Tactical Warlord, and I expect I'll play a Bard at some point. (That said, the Artificer doesn't really appeal to...

    November Editorial Calendar

    One thing that stands out to me as something I hadn't expected is November 21st's Free: Map Gallery: Martial Power. The Draconomicon having maps of various types of dragon lairs wouldn't surprise me, but I'm a bit at a loss as to what kind of maps would be in Martial Power.
