It depends entirely on the situation. However, I would most certainly give the PCs a modifier just like I would for the monsters if it made sense. It's not about them seeing the power being used. In my example, it's about being in melee when that is the only action the PC takes turn after...

Actually, no, you're not going to push a person let alone a monster in the scenario you described. My original point is to be pragmatic. That was a specific example, but in that case it's basically true. To push someone you're going to need to apply force to their center mass. That's predictable...

Explain how it will be crippling for the monsters. My example hinders the particular PC. You quoted a specific example about the fighter with an at-will power. I'm not talking about a general attack from a monster, so there's no correlation. There are many types of sword blows or ways a...

I'm new to the 4e rules, but not new to D&D. I've just been out of it for quite awhile. I thought this was an interesting topic, so I thought I'd offer my two cents. I may have a different opinion after I start a 4e campaign. I have always liked a more pragmatic approach to dealing with...

Thanks again. I can work with that. You are right about Encounters. I did find out that they had a bulletin board when I went in to buy the Forgotten Realms books. (I know Amazon.com is cheaper, and I buy from there, but I want to support my local store as well.) I'll be putting up a...

Thank you. You may be right about the post location. I chose here, because I'm sort of soliciting for players as well. I'll have to stop by and see if the store has a bulletin board for the purpose you suggested. When you say "style", what type of things do you recommend mentioning? I'm...

No advice from anyone?

This weekend I made the decision to get back into D&D after a 20 year hiatus. I've always been a dungeon master, and intend to reclaim that role. I've ordered the core rule books and will probably get a few more things; e.g. the Forgotten Realms campaign products. I liked the Forgotten Realms...
