Just a quick note to say I'm very much enjoying reading this story hour; keep it up! :)

Wow, I wish my Waterstones ran a gaming club.. :erm:

I got the email also. They managed my core box set ok, but this time not so lucky. I also recommend Free delivery worldwide on all books from The Book Depository though they tend to be better for things already released; currently their list price for PHB2 is £24.99... I will be off to my...

Ah I see in my haste I missed a post with a less direct tagline, with info from Amazon.

From Ampersand column: Couldn't see this posted here so thought I'd stick it up. Let the joy/nervousness/speculation etc commence!

On a side note: Top marks Ari, I loved the latest instalment. I was excited just READING it; I look forward to getting a group through to the end of the Heroic tier :)

Whether or not it's yoinkable or just plain useful I don't know, but I love posting this link :D Ray Winninger's Dungeoncraft Essays Nice thread, btw.

I have H1 & H2, and a D&DI subscription. I'm (hopefully) about to start running Scales of War. I agree that the first few adventures seem a little plain, though I hope that the fact that I'm playing with new players will make that slightly less of an issue. But I'm finding the more recent...

I subscribe (less than a year only because of cashflow) and it's so worth it. It's telling, I think, that no one who has subscribed has said it's not worth it at time of posting (i.e. no disappointed subscribers). The character builder has already proved invaluable. I'm starting some new...

If you were replying to me, I was suggesting that when shapeshifted (likely through a daily) you might get at-will powers unique to the new form.. Perhaps encounter powers were a step to far. But I agree that the actual shapeshift would work better as a daily; it's how i was thinking of it, if...

I'm also finding it useful, but from the polar opposite side that Eric Mona ;) I'm about to start running Scales of War (was sceptical at first but I think it is starting to get a little more interesting). It'll be my first campaign, and I'm running it with new players. I'm explaining that it...

Agreed. Nothing is more likely to make me close a tab than the descent into any of that sort of debate. Especially given that it generally appears an hour after a playtest article is posted and therefore can't have actually been played with extensively. *Super-yawn* :yawn: My life is too short...

Welcome Jade, and a lovely setup you have. I hope one day to fulfil the full cliché and have a basement to game in! I have the smallest of the Chessex mats. It's the only mat I've ever owned (I'm quite new), and although it's the only one that will fir on my rather small table, if you have...

To add to the above, which is all nicely put, it's a take-it-or-leave-it starting point for creating your own, fairly generic, D&D campaign world. And further to what's been said about points-of-light, it's an example of a points-of-light setting. Points-of-light is a concept more than a...

Seems highly possible. Perhaps with an at-will or two, maybe more.. Like an encounter power which causes you to expend an encounter power similar to the Barbarian's rages..

I'm most definitely in that category. I missed the druid from the PH (only in a passive sense, I'm yet to get a game going :() but not in a "THEY'VE RUINED THE GAME!" way. All this talk of it being a hybrid class has only served to increase my anticipation and guess work.. Looking at Primal...

I'm interested if this game is still recruiting/active. :) Can post character concept if required.

Is anyone else thinking that the Half-Elf affinity for Bard-dom and it's +2 to Con are related? I remember the Con boost raised a few eyebrows when it was revealed, and now it makes a little more sense..

I like the cut of your jib, Mustrum. I think that sits very comfortably how I think about encounter design. One small point though; it seems to me that if the PCs took the longer tunnel (in your example) they would be avoiding the threat rather than overcoming it. If they manage to sneak...

Mordengard is new to me, but already I like it. Going direct to my ideas book :)
