Even though this boxed set had rules that did not exactly match either 4e or Essentials it was still an okay value just for its physical components. The dice, double sided map, monster tokens, an cards were all very reusable, the included adventure was not bad. The rules where somewhere in...

Those are some M4D 4rtsy 5kilz!! You need a wacom!

Welcome to the party!

Thanks for the details. I always like to see how others interpret conversions.

This is one thing I noticed a lot from 4e games I ran, or played in. There was very little need for house rules to "fix" system issues. The system was pretty solid at its core and worked as designed. It actually made the game more stable whenever we played. Any of the house rules we ended up...

QFT! I have found that for my tastes 5e left me severely wanting. It espouses the philosophy of use "theater of the mind", but it gives the DM and players no solid tools to run the game that way, as for example 13th Age does solidly. Combats go faster because monster HP ratio to character...

If you are looking to do a Heroic Level campaign with limited time for prep, I would recommend you look at the Neverwinter Campaign Setting for 4e. It is a crunched/compressed Heroic/Paragon level campaign all to be played in the heroic level. Except for some FR specifics, it should be...

Our group is playing again this Saturday. I had a chance to play 13th Age this past Saturday and had a blast with it. Some quirky annoyances (mook tracking), but overall a heck of a lot of fun.

Even though you could do AL at home, the requirement is that AL be public. So you would have to live stream your game, or do something to open your home up to the public in some way.

The problem with not using examples is that those without experience in dealing with 4e might revert to methods used in other games that they know, or even other versions of the game, and expect similar results. Some of these methods might work without problem. Others might not work well, or...

I have not converted any adventures from 5e to 4e because truthfully I have not found any of them very compelling or interesting enough to convert. However, in the past I've converted the original Slavers Modules (A1-A4) to 4e. A4 was particularly challenging to translate over but in the end...

I've never been a fan of Planescape, as the ideas behind it always fell short in the execution, but what you did here seems really interesting. Well done.

I think the benefit of 10 levels is that most people never get to play into higher levels (11-30). So compressing the progression makes it more likely that players will get to experience the entirety of the game.

I agree some of those things look different but are still there in a certain manner. I believe my only gripe with 13A is that the classes needed a bit more work. 13 True Ways really starts to show how flexible the system can be.

I have found that conversion of Pathfinder Adventure Paths is quite good at showcasing the strengths if 4e. We are currently playing the Kingmaker campaign and having a pretty good time of it. Of course the DM has had to do the conversion but we've been having fun with what he has done with...

Then it's a good thing that almost everyone we've ever heard from that works/worked at WotC says that it is a pretty sweet place to work.

Combat length is entirely a function of the particular group. I played in a game with 3-4 players so the group would be 4-5 players at any given session. I don't think we ever completed a combat in less than 1.5 hours. However, the sessions were totally relaxed so the combat length was never...

Except contributing equally to combat is not the goal. Contributing meaningfully to combat is the goal and that does not have to be in competition to being the best at combat. If the measure of meaningfulness in combat is X and the fighter provides 90-100% of X, the option for class B...
