    How meticulous can the planning be in a six-second combat round?

    I would say you are having fun playing a game in a manner in which some rules are ignored, house ruled, overruled by a DM, and/or just generally discouraged by other types of players.

    How meticulous can the planning be in a six-second combat round?

    And the mechanics already exist for discussing battle plans to. It is called Free Action: Talk. If you want to offer a suggestion as to what course of action another character should take, use this mechanic. While you can Free Action: Talk out of turn (Free Actions can be used out of turn) it...

    How meticulous can the planning be in a six-second combat round?

    I think I agree w/ Karinsdad. Basically what you are encouraging is metagaming. I guess that is fine if everyone agrees and is having fun, but I thought the general consensus among gamers is that metagaming is bad. You might as well allow the players to browse the Monster Manual as they...

    Paranormal Activity

    So I finally ended up seeing this movie, and... It wasn't bad. If you liked Blair Witch, you'll probably really like this movie. It starts off kind of slow in the beginning. It is definately creepy and freaky. If you aren't used to watching scary movies, this movie will probably scare you...

    Where the Wild Things Are(n't)

    They had a midnight showing of this movie the other night. If this is supposed to be a "kids movie", why show it at midnight? That's just bad parenting :p

    D&D 4E Broad reworking of 4e characters and combat

    So I have a thougt here... I borrowed this idea from Palladium's Ninja's and Superspies. I was trying to do a fighting style system of myself a while back, and didn't really get anywhere with it. Instead of having classes levels 1 - 20, each fighting style had levels 1 - 20, and at each level...

    D&D 4E 4e-inspired modular combat system

    Instead of giving a penalty for doing the same trick over and over again, why not give a bonus (+1) for doing a different trick than the last one you just pulled off? If it's not overpowered, a cumulative +1 bonus each round you do something unique...

    Stalker0's Obsidian Skill Challenge System (NEW VERSION: 1.2!!!)

    Any chance you can include several examples, or heck, even a full template, of what your skill challenges look like? Negotion skill challenge Gather Info skill challenge etc.

    Just wondering if anyone around here has seen this movie? It is playing near me and I am really interested in seeing it, but looking for a few reviews first. Here is the trailer Paranormal Activity (2009) | Official Movie Site & Trailer

    Which Skill Challenge System do you use?

    Can we get a link the Stalker's alternate SC system? I know I've seen it before, but never bothered to bookmark it.

    So as soon as you take your first charge, you'd be stuck in stasis forever?

    D&D 4E Looking for info on the 4E Psion (preview)

    At work and I can't access the WotC website from here. Can someone give me a run down on the 4E Psion. What builds, class features and At-Wills do they have? I'm not looking for a copy/paste, just a general idea of what they are and what they do. If anyone can provide, much appreciated!

    Best of the Best - Controllers.

    Storm Pillar from Arcane Power is also really good IMO. As far as what I consider the role of a controller to be.

    My newly paragon wizard is eyeing an interesting combo

    You have to start out as a Fighter so you can start with Combat Challenge. Then, if you multiclass, you can do multi-marking using any power you have.

    What is "core"?

    I think Core is basically up to what the DM allows and everyone agrees on. For me personally, I'd say all PHBs, DMGs and MMs are Core, and if you are playing a specific setting (like FR or Eberron) then those books would be "core" for those campaigns. Then again, as DM, I allow just about...

    Where can I find Bard At-Will CUTTING WORDS?

    Hmmm, when you put it that way, it actually makes a lot of sense. Thanks!
