    Doomsayer's Proclamation: Am I Missing Something Here?

    What about magic items with feat effects? In 3E, the warlock was master of magic items. Maybe this is sorta intended to cause the warlock to invest in fear causing magic items?

    Rangers and bastard swords

    But scimitars are high crit weapons! If you want to be metal, go with the scimitar in each hand. Sure it's a d8 instead of a d10 for damage, but it doesn't cost a feat and the crits really rock. Bonus points if you play a drow. :D

    Rangers and bastard swords

    If it was good enough for Miyamoto Musashi, it's good enough for my ranger! ;)

    Release dates for 11 and 12?

    Take your time, man! Let's end this campaign with an awesome spectacle of a finale that has people talking about it for years to come.

    Why do potions heal a static number?

    The potion as is heals 10 points plus whatever the healing surge heals. Rolling for amount healed in addition to what is recovered from the healing surge would not normally make using the potion a waste of time, because of the hit points gained by the healing surge. It would be a problem if the...

    Disappointed with Under the Eye of the Tempest - too short and expensive

    Mine are #1,#2,#5, and #10 (in no particular order - I find that these 4 embody what I like most about War of the Burning Sky). If I may be so bold, what is it about #11 that makes it probably one of your favorites?

    Disappointed with Under the Eye of the Tempest - too short and expensive

    I never meant to imply that you should charge $1-$2 per adventure. I was merely refuting your comparison of the AP adventures to the Dungeon AP adventures. I just think that you raised the price of the final three adventures with no warning and then lowered the page count and adventure quality...

    Disappointed with Under the Eye of the Tempest - too short and expensive

    I'm not a subscriber. I didn't learn about the existence of the AP until several issues had been released. I've been paying full price. I guess that makes me a chump here. Adventure 11 costs about as much as one of the issues of Dungeon magazine with an AP in it, true, but that Dungeon issue has...

    Disappointed with Under the Eye of the Tempest - too short and expensive

    I was very disappointed with the eleventh adventure. It is very short (both time wise and in page count), very predictable, and just not very good. I expected more in the penultimate adventure (especially since 10 was so good and the price is $1.00 more than most of the adventures). I almost...

    Release dates for 11 and 12?

    Looking through all the artwork for 11 really makes me want it that much more. Do we have a release date?

    If 4th Edition didn't use the "D&D" moniker...

    I probably wouldn't because I have enough new games to last the rest of my life, but I wouldn't have bought into third edition if it hadn't been labeled D&D either, and I loves me some third edition D&D. The same with second edition D&D. I probably wouldn't have bought into it if it wasn't...

    Gary is missed, but that image on the home page

    is terrible. Can we get it replaced with something that is not pixelated and low quality? It seems disrespectful to post such an image as a memorial.

    Timeline for Remaining Adventures

    How many days left now? I've been finding the later adventures to be much more interesting than the earlier ones and I'm curious about #10.

    Advice for starting out

    Fair enough. What portions of the first two adventures did you find to be 'railroady'? What do you think could have been done to improve them?

    Advice for starting out

    No. Not really. Not for me and not for them. I don't want my players to have to settle down and go with the flow. I don't think of them as 'crass uncooperative actor stereotypes' or 'uncooperative "why are we playing this" type players', but they do like to fit in with the game world. I want...

    What is unnecessary in the adventures?

    Thank you for your response, Ryan. It is very helpful. I've purchased a handful of adventures and I plan on getting the rest later today.

    What kinds of ties did they actually have?

    What is unnecessary in the adventures?

    Using the benefit of hindsight, what sort of things do you think could be stripped from the WotBS adventures?

    Advice for starting out

    I'm going through the first adventure and preparing to run it. I see that it starts in a tavern. I'm looking for reasons for the PCs to be in the tavern and to agree with the task proposed to them. What did you guys present to your players to get them to that fateful meeting?
