Hi Starfox. I really like this idea. 99% of play groups would have zero problem with this, except my poor group (we don't have a leader) that may not have many or any powers that can grant allies a save. This would kill us, but I like the idea for most groups. Any time you can take a standard...

I will share something that may apply indirectly, but I do think it's fun and it's short and sweet. Killing minions is fun, but who is to say that they need be killed in typical hack n' slash fashion? So, I am working on a lvl 1-3 adventure atm and here is the set-up: There is a dirty little...

Thnx for responding. To encapsulate (big fun word), the hp shaving comes from my personal preference that humanoids should only have so many hp, and that RAW they have too many in alot of cases (although I don't mind magical beasts and such having crazy hp). I learned from my previous thread...

One P.S. deserves another. My group there are only 3 of us so we have extended uses for Action Points and start with more than 1. The primary use for the AP being for Healing Surges (since we lack a leader class with 1 fighter, 1 ranger, and a wizard dude).

Double max damage is something I really have considered, esp. in regards to very high lvl solos like Orcus. If I can find a way to make the Deathblow work w/o paragraphs and paragraphs of extended rules and exceptions that would be the trick. And sorry to dissapoint, but Im a transplant from...

Ah well my gnome warrior did solo VC at lvl 33. :)

It seems the Runepriest (PHB 3) and the Human Diabolist (MM2) have some elements of what I was going for here. I find that the 4E ppl designing our beloved game seem to end up doing the same things I do for homebrew, so everytime I come up with something they do it and I *sigh* and move on. Oh...

Hi Mercurius. I definately relate to you on this topic, as I have a similar "roll again on a natural 20" thread: http://www.enworld.org/forum/4e-fan-creations-house-rules/272581-optional-rule-deathblow.html My only complaint is don't link it to Healing Surges. How exactly (in my mind) do you...

More fear? This: http://www.enworld.org/forum/4e-fan-creations-house-rules/272581-optional-rule-deathblow.html Have fun! :devil:

Pursuant to this thread, http://www.enworld.org/forum/4e-fan-creations-house-rules/272373-hit-points-study-humanoids.html#post5096933 , toying with a pet idea on hp shaving for humanoids: Normal humanoid monsters: Subtract hp equal to level x2 (I.e. a lvl 9 normal humanoid loses 18hp off...

Toying with a pet idea on hp shaving for humanoids: http://www.enworld.org/forum/4e-fan-creations-house-rules/273718-preliminary-idea-humanoid-monster-hit-point-shaving.html#post5126486

Alot of great ideas here, and while I can't add anything specific I can say that as a 4yr WoW player now doing 4E D&D, I would be ecstatic about playing this adventure. This looks like so much fun! GL.

Also perfectly reasonable and I totally get what youre saying. :) Edit: Not to quibble, and youre point not withstanding...zombies are mindless creatures that as far as I know would just go at whatever they can get to. It's just how they are. :p

Or a "Push". :p

All of this! It's obvious the minute you start to roll up your very first character that you're going to pump your most important stat and to do that, you will need to completely dump another stat. I sometimes go against this trend on purpose, b/c I am not a min/max sort of player and go against...

I feel I need to make a critical point in regards to this statement: An intelligent monster may quickly realize they can't hit the defender and move on to clothies/squishies. Again, an intelligent one. That stupid brute wyvern will likely keep hounding the defender standing right in front of...

Actually Gort, you might this rule better than most based on that statement. With 100g, you're thinking will be to take that extra gold you have after buying the essentials and buy all sorts of "minutiae" with it which promotes minutiae tracking. Reducing the gold at start-up leads more to "well...

I like your reasoning on almost all of these. The only one I wouldn't agree with you on would be the Tiefling. I don't like the double Cha, there; feels overbalanced (no other race is doubled up anywhere). Otherwise, looks good. Doing this would bring uniformity to all the racial stats across...

Unfortunately, I can't read the article but Intrinsic Nature and Symbiosys both look very interesting to me. Since I have a homebrew summoner class, I may have to look at something similar. Very cool.

KAIPO! The town was called Kaipo! LOL :heh:
