    A Paid Trip to Spellhold [D&D 4e]

    Lochlan, HP 32/32, AC 16, F/R/W 14/14/17 OOC: Looks like everyone is moving on to round 2, so I'll skip the round 1 conditional actions. Move: Wind the ballista Standard: Possessing Spirits targeting D at K10. Attack: (1d20+13=23) Damage: (1d4+5=8) If it hits, D will make a melee basic...

    A Paid Trip to Spellhold [D&D 4e]

    Lochlan, HP 32/32, AC 16, F/R/W 14/14/17 OOC: If you'd like I'll be a little more detailed next time to let you resolve the conditional actions. What I had intended was to use Inevitable Shot (which is a Free Action) to pummel someone (in this case, obviously not the dwarf*) with Grappling...

    A Paid Trip to Spellhold [D&D 4e]

    OOC: I should have been clearer. My though was that since it takes 3 move actions to fire, we'd just take turns using move actions. I just meant that since you've got ranged attacks you should use your move to continue winding it up. :)

    A Paid Trip to Spellhold [D&D 4e]

    Do you want us to roll initiative or do you want us to just post actions? I don't know as any of us have powers that make the difference relevant, but shouldn't those of us on the upper deck have Cover instead of Concealment? "Sandy, get that one* before he gets to the ballista! Taran...

    Sharing DDI Accounts: why isn't this like file sharing?

    You don't have to give someone your password to "share your account". Of the seven people in my group, 3-4 of us have active subscriptions. A couple months ago one of the others in our group actually used up his five updates in a month (All on machines he owns. He ended up having to pave...

    House Rule: Subdual

    I think I follow now. What you're saying is that in the real world, and in the majority of historical/fantasy fiction, it's harder to incapacitate / take someone alive when using weapons when using weapons designed to deal lethal damage than it is to simply kill them with those weapons. And...

    House Rule: Subdual

    Sorry, but I'm still not clear on what it is you're really trying to accomplish here. Are you saying that because PC's rarely take prisoners anyway, you want to make it mechanically harder to take prisoners? Or that, for story reasons in your game, you want it to be hard to take prisoners? Or...

    House Rule: Subdual

    In what's essentially a frontier-justice system, PC's don't usually take prisoners because it's impossible to care for them. You're on a mission to save the princess. Two-thirds of the way to the evil lair the party is beset by a dozen bandits. Great, now you've got a dozen prisoners. What...

    House Rule: Subdual

    I'm with malcom. What exactly about the current rule rubs you the wrong way? What are you trying to fix?

    Lochlan nods. "Sounds like we have a plan then."

    A Paid Trip to Spellhold [D&D 4e]

    OOC: Oh, I misread. I thought the Dwarf watched over the Captains room. "Not so fast. We have three objectives we need to cover. The captain, the dwarf and the ballista. Ideally we need to engage all three at roughly the same time without spreading ourselves too thin. I think we need a...

    A Paid Trip to Spellhold [D&D 4e]

    Lochlan nods. "The dwarf and the captain are he primary targets. I will cover Cliff & Asterion. After the dwarf and captain have been subdued, I'll provide support as we move with the slaves to take the main deck."

    Hybrid Classes...Anybody seen a good one lately?

    I haven't had a chance to do a full build, but Monk/Seeker looks promising. They both need Wis/Dex, and adding in Seeker adds ranged damage/control to the melee powerhouse...

    The Four Lands Forum

    Unless there's a big hole that needs to be filled, I'm thinking about rebuilding Aidan as a Fey-bloodline Sorcerer, as I haven't seen a lot of arcanist concepts posted.

    The Four Lands Forum

    I'm back from vacation and it looks like quite a bit has been going on while I was out. Who is currently signed up for which new game (or the other way 'round, which aren't full yet)?

    Looking for recommendations on a 4E module.

    Our group is somewhere in the last third or so of a 4E-ified Rise of the Runelords campaign. Once we finish, I'm going to be taking over the DM seat for a short while to give our regular DM a break. I've got a pretty good idea what I want to do, but I'm looking for a module that fits my...

    A Paid Trip to Spellhold [D&D 4e]

    While helping Sandy secure the barrels, Lochlan can't help but notice that the halfling isn't just splashed with brine, but is positively drenched. Also, the barrel looks less like it was smashed by being tossed 'round the deck and more like it was opened. "My name is Lochlan. I just joined...

    [OOC] A Paid Trip to Spellhold

    Sorry, you were out for several days, then apparently came back while I was out on vacation. I was waiting on Herobizkit, and it looks like he posted the day I left. I'll be posting IC any minute now.

    Call to the Four Lands - OCC

    I'm interested. I'll have to go dig up my copy of Pathfinder before I have an idea what I want to play. Edit: As of Monday I'll be out-of-town on vacation for a week. If y'all really get rolling, don't wait on me.

    Looking for magic items with 'quirks'

    Hmm, I feel like there's room here for something interesting with the Concordance mechanic for artifacts. Say it's a +2 cloak, at Unsatisfied it drops to +1, +0 when Angered, some other minor property at Satisfied, and goes up to +3 at Pleased. Every time the wearer is targeted by a FRW...
