I've noticed similar problems. I've run KotS and another DM is running his own campaign. I've noticed in both situations that the combat usually ends up being in the doorway of the room in which the encounter has set up. I think that it is because in both cases initiative is rolled as soon as...

Of course, the joke is that I've never heard of you or your products. So, I guess your fake positive reviews didn't do much to help your advertising after all.

I'm posting here because I've gotten more responses and faster responses from the developers on this forum than the official WotC forums. (I'm not the only one that has noticed this.) Yes, the 'you don't know how to playtest' comments were probably a bit rude. But, its born out of frustration...

Even after the update for the stealth rules, I'm still seeing a lot of threads of people trying to parse out what the rules mean and how they're supposed to work. Welcome to the Stealth rules, the new grapple. They're so poorly written and convoluted that my group has essentially decided that...

I know that. But what's the point? Is the stats between a hide armor +3 really different than a darkhide armor +4? Is it just a fancy name change and I should give it up? It would be really helpful if WotC would explain this better than just a few lines in a FAQ buried on their website.

Here is the question and answer related to masterwork armor listed in the PHB: So, here's my question: What's the point of masterwork armor? I don't see any difference from the stats of regular hide armor or darkhide or elderhide. The check penalties and speed penalties are the same. I...

I don't know if anyone else has picked up on this: http://www.amazon.com/Open-Grave-Secrets-Undead-Supplement/dp/0786950692/ref=pd_sim_b_img_1 Perhaps the 4e version of Liber Mortis?

So we were playing the KotS last week and we were using the rogue pregen. We noticed that he was kind of weak and we realized that he rarely got to use his sneak attack. Part of the problem was that we were fighting kobolds in the inner Kobold Lair encounter. So, flanking them was difficult...

My group got killed on the second encounter, Kobold Ambush. This encounter wasn't full of minions which die with one hit. This had 3 dragonshields and a wyrmpriest. I think what really hurt them was that they were still thinking in 3e terms. The kobolds were able to outmaneuver the party and...

After reading all of the horror stories of people and their experiences at gaming stores (or lack thereof), I realize that I'm pretty lucky. So, I'll give my free plug for my FLGS: Dragon's Lair in Austin, TX USA is really good. They're friendly and helpful (they even hire cute gamer chicks)...

Let's say a creature marks a wizard. Because of the mark, the wizard gets a -2 to attacks that doesn't include the creature that marks it. If the wizard uses some kind of AoE, such as scorching blast, and the marking creature is in the area of effect, does the wizard get a -2 to any of the...

I've figured out something that the WotC developers don't want you to know: the true inspiration of dragonborn. Sure, they'll say that people have been wanting to play dragon-like races for years. They can probably even point to some old campaign setting that no one really remembers and say...

Maybe the zombie minions just need more brrrraaaaaiiiiinnnnnsssss!!!!

I'm sorry I didn't notice the fact that the art didn't match the characters described. I was too busy to figure out why WotC even released an adventure with a set of quick start rules if those rules are going to be confusing, vague, and in the end not even match the complete rules of the PHB...

If you take your OCD medication, it won't bug you so much. :D

:bump:

Oh yeah, I didn't think to look at the Light cantrip. I can use that as my ranges for the light source.

That sounds a lot simpler. I might use that instead. I was basing my structure off of something I saw during a demo of the DDI game table. It appeared that two different characters had different size illuminated areas from the same light source. But, that may be easier with a computer...

I'm wondering how illumination and vision works in 4e. They are both mentioned in KotS, but not really addressed. This may be more of a rules disclosure than what WotC wants to get into right now. But, let me explain what I'm seeing and see if someone from WotC will verify/correct/explain...

I got a ruling from the WotC (they're just trying to make me eat crow now): "The following actions provoke: • Moving out of a square when an enemy is adjacent to you. • Making a ranged attack or area attack. If it's not on that list, it doesn't provoke. __________________ Logan Bonner...
