I plan on running a 4E adventure (Return of the Burning Plague) on Saturday or Sunday with my combined gaming groups using the Pre-Gen characters. To set the mood, I thought I would use Midnight Syndicate's D&D soundtrack for background music and perhaps order a couple of pizzas so that all...

Very cool. This gives me great hope for 4E. Excellent read, too. You write exceptionally well. :)

Bones? Bones, wake up. Oh, by the Gods, no. No Bones, don't leave me! Bones, wake up! You can't die! BONES!!!...........???!!!POR QUE!!!??? :( Sorry, just got a mental image of a mighty warrior falling to his knees and cradling a pile of bones, weeping in agony over the death of his beloved...

In regards to my old gaming group (which includes my uncle and my cousin), only the Gods know when (probably in about 1-2 months, if I had to guess a timeframe). In regards to my other gaming group (which includes my brother, his fiance, and my girlfriend), probably within a week. I plan on...

All explanations fail if you analyze them enough. Eventually, you're going to come up with a situation or concept where the explanation does not work. Why? Because rules and explanations are static and do not change. Our imaginations, do. Therefore, the explanations cannot encompass everyone's...

Seconded. :)

Just wasn't sure if there was some Grand art site i didn't and should know about. :)

What marvelous artwork. Those would make excellent backgrounds. If I may ask, where did you find these pics?

Here here! D&D is fantasy. No man could recover from many of the above instances within a few days. How do they do it? They are heroes, beyond the norm and built from the stuff of legends, even if some of them perhaps don't know it.

My Star Wars villain (a Sith Lord no less :) ) was 6 levels higher than the entire party (he was 19th while they were 13th). In all honesty, they were never really supposed to fight him if they could help it, but i guessed (correctly it seemed) that one of the players would challenge him, so I...

Doesn't have to be regeneration. Roleplay an explanation. Remember, HP does not directly relate to physical damage in 4E, nor did it really in 3E.

Not a bad idea, just wish it didn't have to come down to adding extra monsters to simply even the fight.

Which is why I said there is an acceptable amount of realism in D&D. I don't understand where you're getting the idea that everthing is unrealistic. And with a game that has wizards and elves running about, I fail to see how it is possible to retain a vast amount of what we would define as...

I'm not sure about everyone else, but one of the features I'm most looking forward to is the addition of Solo Monsters. I cant count the number of times my BBEG have gotten the stuffing beat out of them by the PC's after he/she delivers a monologue promising impending doom. This, as many of you...

I don't wish to be rude or anything, but Derren, this is Fantasy, not Reality. If you want delve this deep into it, then consider: after one adventure, your character would probably never adventure again. Why? Because adventuring HURTS. Alot. Pretty much as you just pointed out. And for those...

Seems like a fine explaination to me. Well done.

You're not alone. I too like the idea of lizardmen. They seem to be just as acceptable as an elf or a dwarf in a fantasy game, don't ya think?

Personally, I think all the covers look great. This is a new and different edition of D&D. So, I guess the artwork should be somewhat new and different, right? Just my $0.02

Voted yes, tho I've never played in Dark Sun. Heard some heroic tales from my uncle about his old characters in Dark Sun, tho, so I'd like to give it a try.
