Just wondering if anyone's gotten this FR mod yet - first impressions?

I think I could "sell" the campaign a lot better to some of my gaming buddies who aren't so familiar with the setting - the reboot will make it easier to focus on regional aspects as opposed to a somewhat strongarm metaplot. Furthermore, I think this reboot would be a nice tribute to Mr. Gygax. :)

***Some Mild Spoilers*** Dragora's Dungeon is a Goodman Games adventure for 1-3rd level characters, and is "compatible" with 4th Edition D&D. Detailed Summary: The adventure assumes the PCs are guests at the local palace, and they are present on the night when the malicious eye of...

Yep - why not make this an "ENWorld Exclusive"? :)

I'm amused by Canonfire's near-unanimous venom at the suggestion of abandoning the whole Greyhawk Wars theme. AFAIC, this ("From the Ashes", etc) was not Gygax's Greyhawk, but a deliberate post-Gygax change-up designed to protect their "acquisition" from future legal action from the setting's...

This seems like a cool write-up, but I had to stop reading when my eyes began hemhorraging after a few sentences. Please use a larger font! (Thanks!) ;)

bump! ;)

Im hearing Goodman Games new 4E modules are excellent quality, as ever. Were you able to score one or more of these at GenCon? I'm also hearing a little dissatisfaction with the new cover layout style. Do you prefer the new style or the old way?

I also like the archtypal Scandinavian mountains. Cold, dark forests, deep fjords, mysterious, enshrouded in fog.

IME, evil parties invariably end up self-destructing, which sometimes has led to bruised feelings in real life as well, and negatively affected the playing atmosphere and group dynamic for awhile. Other "evil" parties I've seen have really just been Chaotic Nuetral in practice, which would...

Minions are the strategic counter to your party's striker. 4 minions = 1 normal monster 1 normal monster is usually no problem for a striker. For instance, a rogue with combat advantage can usually take down a normal goblin in a round or two. 4 minions however, effectively nullify the...

This puts me in mind of the Black Company and its' standard, which turned out to be a magical artifact (The Lance of Passion). Good stuff.

Sad but true. Board critics of 4E constantlly use the term "dumbed down", etc, when it should be obvious by now that this is insulting to a lot of folks and always draws passionate/angry responses. So why continue to use this terminology? There also seems to be a much-touted opinion that...

Personally, I use smilies to denote the difference between "wryly amused" (as previous) and "angrrry". I hope these boards haven't come to the point where we can't poke a little good-natured fun at each other.

I enjoy minions, and my players enjoy killing them. :) I use a simple mechanic of 2hp per minion level (ie a 7th lvl minion has 14hp) when I need to determine the effect of "questionable" damage, like weak AoE, falling down stairs, thorny bushes, etc, but otherwise the 1hp (or "one successful...

Obviously, anyone who doesn't hate 4E...;)
