Draco, you mentioned "blocking/counter blood magic" and such. I am curious: is that just special effects, or is it integrated into the mechanics?

Oh! I forgot! Another question to the more experienced: assuming not every character is supposed to be a "katana/Iajutsu" master, how you fellows usually dealt with interactions that could result in a duel? No matter the system we use- I think - there will be 1 or 2 duelists in any party...

Thanks for all the insights guys. What do you think about social interaction. Can 4ed hold it well?

So, I will take Draco's word regarding lethality. But about social interactions, I feel that Lo5R has more skills, but they can be translated. Trick would be the way DnD sees the "other"... the miscelaneous skills.... like the Origami thecniques or even the Tea Cerimony. Those skills do have...

By death, in this case, represented by the loss of the character, right? I do see your point. Specially after having played Role Master, HARP, and the all mighty Shadow Run.;) In those matters you are probably 100% right, as DnD does not trive in game lethality at all (specilally 4ed). What...

Forgot to answer: yes, Rokugan, with some adaptations, but still.... classic.

Fun! With one thing we all agree: Rokugan can be REALLY different. As you fellows aready started t have fun with. I have played a very nice campaign, and 3ed rules weren't exactly adequate, but we entered the Rokugan Worlds nevertless. Admitely my players and I are getting old. Really old...

Some references that I could suggest are: 1 - Lord of the Rings. 2 - In Paragon Tier, in my opinion, characters have usually less chance to die. So they should fight for others, instead of themselves. The bad guys can attack/hurt/kill innocent bystanders in the process.. Its entirely...

Good evening! I have been having a few ideas for an oriental campaign and I was wondering if anyone already addapted 4ed to Rokugan or something equivalent. I am already confident that the tactical and "physical" aspects of the game are not a problem, but Rokugan and Oriental Adventures...

I agree. I do the same. I was just answering Sigfile question. Thx again!:)

Lots of good stuff! First and foremost, thank you all! :D Thats a very nice start, and lots of information to look at. Samir, I cant see that handbook, no idea why. Link takes me to a profile page in Wizards Community. Iron Sky, looking at your example now, seems pretty nice indeed...

Good afternoon folks! I remmember old treads about Avenger builds and options, but after lookig 6 pages back and not finding a search engine, here I am looking for wisdom. :erm: First and foremost my future character will probably be an agent of an Eberron church. As far as I can see my DM...

Champion of the Order I feel that most features are balanced, maily becuse they only work agains some targets or on some special situations, but this: ****************************************** Certain Justice - Champion of Order level 11 attack: Marked target dazed + weakened until not...

Agree. The beauty of the rogues in general is that they have almost the highest damage output, but they do have to expose themselves a lot more. So basicaly, as a rogue, you can and should choose when to use your best attacks, and when to wait and lurk. Choices/variance = good things. I...

Silly doubt: My DM said, and I now tend to agree, that a push effect does not need to be "in line", its enough that you move the target "away from you every square". Lets use the keypad numbers to give an example: (7) (8) (9)_______ (4) (5) (6)_| | |__ (1) (2) (3) Lets say you are in...

Thanks! Thank you FurryFighter and Klaus! ;)

Good afternoon fellows. I have heard about skill powers, but I dont have material about it yet (only Cha Builder), so please allow me a couple of noobish questions. As far as I got it, you have to have some skill as prerequesite, but thats it? Lovely concept as far as I can tell. Are they...

Very good points. Actually gived the demigod lv 30 example he would just loose 1 second or 2 and keep moving (spending a move action to stand-up), becuse a couple of dice of damage wouldn't do much against a 250hp character. The "damage" should be described as a minor interrupt. So even at...

I enjoy the chance of rolling the dice twice, but even if Stuntman's math is correct, dont you think the diference is all too small? A paragon feat should be better tham a heroic one, and it does not seems to be, unless... Hey fellows! If we consider all that powers/feats that allow a...
