Encumbrance rules are in PHB, page 222 - carrying, lifting, and dragging.

You didn't miss anything, as written it does not affect movement. If this bothers you, you could make a houserule that cuts the speed of blinded creatures in half, like in 3E. Personally I don't think this is necessary, although I find it a bit weird when a blinded character moves confidently...

Here is a reason - you have found a powerful artefact, but it is one handed and you need something for the other hand :P

True, but the double sword is actually better than everything, not only the kukri :) And you may have a reason to want an off hand weapon that is not a double weapon.

I always thought that you cannot use a kukri for the daggermaster paragon path and the point of the kukri is to be a great off-hand weapon (for a tempest fighter or something) with brutal 1. I could be wrong, though.

I honestly don't see the problem with Black Arrow Style. It has two conditions - move into concealment or cover and suceed on a Stealth check. Even if both are fairly easy to satisfy, Rogues are supposed to get sneak attack almost every round and he is limited to an at-will power. So: Question...

I found out that I spend considerable less on preparation since we started playing 4e. Combat encounters and NPC characters are made in the blink of an eye and I have to think only about the story and roleplaying events... And I am not afraid of creating high-level spellcasters anymore :)

I have a dream about a non-combat use of a martial power: - An archery competition where participants fire a single arrow at the bullseye - Robin Hood (an archer ranger) taking aim, letting the arrow go, and winning by a single point (the modified die roll is higher with 1 than the next best) -...

You mean as many times as his Wisdom modifier allows...

I thought you were talking about my DM, not his.

No he didn't. He never claimed he was following the RaW, he made a ruling on the spot. And even by the RaW one may argue that the Gelatinous Cube has the ability to move with the engulfed target (although this is a pretty shaky position, I know). And most importantly - the battle was fun! This...

Aside for Queen of Stone, that you already have, I recommend the earlier trilogy of Keith Baker (The Dreaming Dark) and everything by Don Bassingthwaite (Heirs of Dhakaan, The Dragon below). Also, the collection of short tales "Tales of the Last War" ain't half bad. Everything else is so-so, in...

In a game that I participated we had similar situation with a Gelationous Cube. The Game Master ruled that since the cube engulfs the heroes in its space and may move normally with them in it, it also doesn't release them when affected by forced movement. In any case, we regarded this as a...

Mister, you just won yourself some XP :)

Mooove along, citizens!

Great, thanks!

My nick was "Blizzard" when Blizzard were called "Silicon & Synapse". They stole it from me :)

I don't have access to any of the stores participating in FreeRPG day. I am very interested to get the adventure (big fan of Keith Baker and Eberron). Is there any legal way to get it, for example would it be published as a free download, or can someone (legally) send it to me as a PDF after the...

I've actually never played WoW, but I've played quite a few WoW clones like Warhammer: Online and LOTRO. In my opinion, D&D 4E is no more similar to them than it is to any other computer RPG (a genre that D&D inspired in the first place). Also, it is no more similar to them than any of the older...

Great tale! Have some XP :)
