Is the Starter Set worth getting? I'm thinking of getting it, but has anyone ran the campaign that comes with it?

Character creation was always fun in the previous editions, almost like a fun mini game. You mentioned your character can be seriously injured during the course of their career. Can you outright die like in older versions of the game?

In Ed Greenwood Presents Elminster's Forgotten Realms, there is an entire section devoted to local laws and edicts of the Sword Coast, including property law, trade laws, and sentencing the guilty. For instance, on p. 46: Attacking Secomber: "This crime is defined as invading Secomber with...

A player in my group wants the tree shape spell cast on his druid's flying animal companion (via link) to crush his enemies below him. How much damage would you think this would do (to both his enemy and animal companion)?

I bought the Ghaele of Winter last week: Again, she doesn't carry an battleaxe like Torrent, but I dug the cloak.

Awesome. Thanks, guys.

I don't know if this has been posted already, but in anticipation for the 4e conversion of the War of the Burning Sky campaign, I was wondering how the name "Ragesia" was pronounced?

I bought the book immediately when I came across this thread this morning. After flipping through it while sitting in a nearby coffee shop, I must say it was worth every cent. I can't wait to use the urban and NPC tables for both my Pathfinder and 4e campaigns. Hell, I'll even use it for the...

Sold. I've been waiting for an epic 4e campaign to come my way, excluding the Scales of War Adventure Path (not the kind of game I was looking for). I can't wait to run this for my group - good timing, too now that a lot of us have our hands on PHB2.

With the new Forgotten Realms book on its way, I was thinking about using an old FR module or campaign set and converting it to 4E for my friends. So, what published adventures (from any edition) would you recommend?

Hoody-hoo!

It's here?! So what does the cover look like? Does the book look cool? Do I need to renew my prescription to read the font in this newer (and smaller) book? :p ::rushes out to Barnes and Noble::

I wonder if having the high ground will grant me a +10 bonus to my attack roll in this edition :]

lol - I can relate to this strip. This is exactly how I've represented the monsters in my battles for the last few years: orcs, goblins, and bugbears all share the same set of miniatures :lol:

I have to agree with grodog here. When I ran the Lost Tomb series for my group, I really hyped up the end-of-the-world plot with the Doomgrinder. My friends loved the mystery behind the Star Cairns and most of the puzzles in the Crypt of Lyzandred the Mad. Months later, when the Doomgrinder...

I'm running the Shackled City Adventure Path (Chapter 4: Zenith Trajectory). My group is two chambers away from Zenith, which is very good, considering they almost had a TPK from that devil woman and the kuo-toan whips.

It was the first AD&D campaign I ran for my friends back in high school. It took us nine years to complete because after high school, it was extremely difficult to get all 5 of us at the table again (some of us enlisted in the military, some went off far away to college, etc.). The game ended...

I'm usually the DM for the majority of the games we play. However, I do participate in a d20 Star Wars game as a player, with one of my regulars as the GM. It would be great if things were done evenly. I'd love for someone to run a Shadowrun 4th edition game or Traveller with me as a...

Wow, I'm surprised that a lot of players keep their sheets between sessions. I, the GM, keep my group's character sheets because: 1.) I know my group has a tendency to lose a lot of things I let them borrow (like my CDs). 2.) I update my cheat sheets between all my d20 game sessions, so I...

!!!! Sorry to hear about his death... we'll miss him on the boards. He gave me some great input for my games in the past. The message boards won't be the same without him :(
