    Iron Heroes...what's your opinion?

    Everytime I think about it, I get a Billy Idol tune (with different words) stuck in my head: "flanking by myself." That alone gets people moving on the battlefield. If you move from 1 to 2 and attack at 2, you gain flanking and all the associated benefits against A: 1A2 Then there's the...

    Doh! Sorry, Adam. Must have been tired (as you know I know your name). :)

    Iron Heroes The King Must Die

    I've run it three times (once playtesting it on my group and twice at GenCon). Andy Windsor (a playtester/DM of the Iron Heroes product) ran it at least twice as well. Any specific questions?

    Iron Heroes...what's your opinion?

    It won't. There are several people at work on various solutions, including using ENWorld's own Elements of Magic, Green Ronin's Black Company, and many others. Some folks are porting in the Hexblade, I think.

    Iron Heroes...what's your opinion?

    Two things that spring to mind: no alignments (and therefore no [Good] or [Evil] weapons, no effect for protection from alignment spells on PCs) and DR (metals are still good as is —, but Good, Evil, etc. would need to be changed). I believe the CRs are supposed to be close, however, I think a...

    Questions about Iron Heroes?

    Had my first real game last night. I found that while there was some additional math, it really wasn't any more time consuming in and of itself than calculating what the wizard, cleric or bard have done/are doing to the party (haste, bless or inspire courage, for example). Additionally, some...

    Iron Heroes...what's your opinion?

    While I wouldn't deny there are some very loyal Malhavoc fans (perhaps in part because of the smaller, get-to-know-everyone online community over there), the people who post the most over there with regards to Iron Heroes aren't at all the usual suspects. I think IH is drawing a different crowd.

    Iron Heroes...what's your opinion?

    Essentially, he didn't have the time to devote to it to get it to the point he was happy with it, as you'll read in our exclusive interview with him this Thursday at the Iron-League (shameless plug).

    Iron Heroes...what's your opinion?

    Hm. I would have said he made Daffy think he heard the opposite, giving him a few levels of arcanist, but I think yours makes more sense. :cool:

    Questions about Iron Heroes?

    It's a set number per day based on level. He can attempt to exceed that number, but it's risky and carries a cost.

    Iron Heroes - I have it in my hands!

    Regarding EZBoard and lost posts, I've found that as long as I preview it first I won't lose it usually. If I (from the preview) click Post and there's a problem, I can click back. Now this results in a "page no longer exists" error page. But if I click refresh it asks if it can resend the...

    Iron Heroes - I have it in my hands!

    That's the idea. No one knows how DR works yet though (as far as I know).

    My first Iron Heroes... er, umm... Hero!

    Actually, using IH rules, you used 26-pt buy. Thanks for the characters. :D

    Iron Lore: Malhavoc's Surprise?

    And the FAQ just says August. Sue Cook emailed us (the Lieges of the Iron-League) and told us that "the new official date is August 1." Whether or not any vendor can or will offer either product version earlier is not known to me, but I doubt it. And, as I said above, expect the old dates in...

    Iron Lore: Malhavoc's Surprise?

    Not yet, but I'll look into it. EDIT: Mastering Iron Heroes hits in PDF in early August (October print release). November 2005 for the Bestiary PDF (January print release).

    Iron Lore: Malhavoc's Surprise?

    I have it on pretty good authority that it is August 1st for both the PDF and Print versions. Expect to see the July dates changed soon. ~Saucy Liege

    March Fo(u)rth for GM's Day Giveaway - Pimp Your GM!

    I second the nomination of Bill Collins (see Manifold's post above). He is the hardest working person in the gaming industry that I play with and in addition to what Manifold mentioned, I think there's at least two or three more games of varying frequencies and forms. He is also incredibly...
