    D&D 4E Just played my first 4E game

    The video game my friends compared it to was Tribes. The comparison went something like this. . . Every character has its role and you don't deviate from that or you lose. There are a few set builds for each role (similar to weapon and gear load outs in Tribes). Everyone has to be much more...

    D&D 4E Just played my first 4E game

    I actually believe there is something to the statement that 4E feels like a video game. I don't think it has anything to do with the necessity (or lack thereof) of a DM or the difficulty in tracking modifiers. I have heard this from a number of people when they first try 4E - and these are folks...

    Alternative Turning Rules

    This is what I use Turning undead is a standard action that deals 1d6 damage/cleric level to all undead within 30’ of the cleric. Will save DC 10 + (1/2 Cleric level + Charisma modifier) for half damage. Undead with turn resistance gain a bonus to the save equal to their turn resistance and...

    Squared FireBalls?

    Interesting, as someone who has been slowly becomming optimistic about 4E, Mouseferatu's comments of late have made me more worried that I won't like 4E.

    Jonathan Tweet denounces Power Attack

    Hmm, it appears that, in my quick perusal, that the F*ATT isn't any more random than the A*ATT usage. Also, it appears that the F*ATT usage applies to using whatever the * is at maximum all the time, while the A*ATT usage applies to using whatever the * is all the time but not necessarily at...

    Jonathan Tweet denounces Power Attack

    Never said it did ;) As does Full Power Attack, All The Time http://www.google.com/search?q=%22Full+*,+All+the+Time%22&hl=en&client=firefox-a&channel=s&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&start=10&sa=N FPAATT and APAATT appear to be a case of divergent evolution. However, assuming that everyone...

    Jonathan Tweet denounces Power Attack

    Not trying to claim provenance, having not read Heroes of High Favor: Half-Orcs I was just pointing out that FPAATT is the common usage around my neck of the woods - heck even Hyp refered to it as FPAATT back in aught5. :D As for where gamers get these things, I'm sure the people who I game...

    Jonathan Tweet denounces Power Attack

    Other than here at EN world I've not heard it called that. It's always been Full Power Attack, All The Time. Interesting

    Neutral Good Human Ranger/Bard (3rd/2nd Level) Ability Scores: Strength- 14 Dexterity- 14 Constitution- 15 Intelligence- 15 Wisdom- 15 Charisma- 13 The Bard bit seems Odd, but others have commented that I can walk up and talk to just about anyone - I just don't realize it. :)

    Bionic Woman- Season 1 [Faceoff] 10/2007

    The bad is far outweighing the good - and the shaky cam crap is, well, crap. I can't see this lasting. I think this was my last episode to watch.

    Bionic Woman- Season 1 [Pilot] 9/2007

    Unless the second part of the pilot is spectacular, my initial reaction (after I had seen the extended trailer), seems to be coming true after watching the first part of the pilot - it was awful. Plus - How many BSG actors are going to be in this show ? Plus - Just because it bugs me so much...

    MERGED: How do you say the site name? / What's with Eeee Ennn World?

    I've never actually met anyone in person who pronounces it EE EN world - its always been N world around these parts.

    Dresden Files done?

    Hmm, I doubt it. I realize that I only saw a trailer - but the number of "how are they going to explain that" instances in the trailer was bothersome. I have a bad feeling that the way they are going to explain the things that bothered me are going to bother me even more. And of course its got...

    [Trailer] Iron Man

    I would have preferred someone like Jason Issacs for the part of Stark, but the suit looks cool - so I'll still go see it.

    Dresden Files done?

    What are the major networks doing, other than Heroes (yay!) and Bionic Woman (OMG!! that look terrible :mad: ) ?? Anyways - I'm disappointed - I have never read the books, so changes didn't affect me, and really liked the series. The funny thing is my mother (who happens to be in her 70's)...

    Where to go with my Warblade

    Yes, the 5th level special ability of the Master of Nine PrC is a damage bonus equal to the number of different disciplines he readied maneuvers from on any martial strikes made. So a MoN has the potential of having +9 to damage with each martial strike made
