Going to have to disagree with you. I have converted Keep on The Boarderlands and Clerics Challenge II to 4e. Successfully. Right now my brother is working on a X-Crawl adventure for 4e Gamma World. It's all on how you approach the conversion.

My concern is support for the modules. How do they plan to do adventure design? A possible issue could go like this; The Hounds of Thundestone adventure features vancian magic, heavily. In fact, it is vital to the development of several plot points in the game. But my group has opted out of...

I keep getting a "Bad Request - invalid URL" message.

You an I Think a lot alike on this. The whole racial package for elves seem to favor archer, sneaky, scout types. But they get saddled with wizard out of a tradition that has been rendered null by the mechanics of each new edition. As for my comment about "elves are supposed to be the best...

I don't mind racial penalties. Just have them make sense. For example, elves are supposed to be some of the best wizards around, but they get a +2 dex and a -2 con. They get a +1 to AC and ranged attacks, but at the expense of 20 HP by level 20? And their favored class sports a d4 for HP?! WTF...

The implied skill system has its merits. But what I am not looking forward to is the rules lawyer who tries to justify using charisma to climb a wall or strength to remember obscure lore on a cult. The rules lawyer in question will undoubtedly know that attrition will make the DM give because...

I played D&D for a few years without using grids and such. I ended up adopting the grid due to it just making things easier. It was like trying to play chess but you were not allowed to look at the board or move your pieces while a third person tried to you describe what is going on. More...

Kind of like a CCG or Pokemon. This is even more true for when you fight another caster. After the battle you get to keep his spellbook/deck/monsters and add them to your own. Gotta catch em all!

We both know that most people will comment first, then go through the pages of comments. I ran a poll a few years back asking if people would read an entire thread before commenting or just comment anyway, even if it risks restating some thing someone else may of said. The results were a...

True, but a statement by the OP would of cleared that up just as well. (let me state that in no way am I holding the OP to blame in any way, shape, or fashion. Something he said got away from him, it happens.) Plus, with the nature on NDA's, as far as I understand them, there was no promise of a...

When the "weeks of bed rest" thing was mentioned it was was not stated if it was a hand-wave fluff or rules-dogma crunch. So enough people took it as part of the new rules, and understandably so. Not everyone enjoys that style of play or the thought that weeks of campaign time has to go by so...

Sorry for the necro on your reply. I'm trying to clear out my inbox and had to watch the video. Speaking of the video... I wish I got that box! The one I got had the fighter on a tower in the mountains fighting a rather upset looking red dragon. It was, "Introduction To Advanced Dungeons &...

Gritty, death-certain, weeks of bed rest style of play should be an option, not the default. From my experience, that style of play makes the players feel fragile and less likely to take great risks. If your character is laid out for weeks at a time then you should at least be allowed to have...

Nice work. XP from me!

Cant wait to buy this.

In my experience, flying characters are isolated targets. My wife, who played a 3.5 cleric that could fly at will, found this out. When in combat she took to the air and then took a beating. Out of combat it was not all that big of a advantage.

So in order to get the four minis that they said was going to be in it originally, I would have to shill out another $13 for them? Bringing the grand total up to $48? Not impressed. My first D&D boxed set at least came with an audio CD and four blue heroes for $20.

Hmm. You are correct. My mistake.

My FLGS had it on the shelves Saturday 9/10. So I picked it up. Really cool so far.

This looks like great fun Beta Key give me one please, Sir Would you trade a monkey?
