    WotBS eReader and WotBS?

    I use my iPad when running WotBS. It's great being able to zoom in on a map or art that I want to show the players. I use the GoodReader app to display it.

    Do we really need Classes anymore?

    Balance is a dirty word to some gamers, and the Holy Grail to others. To some it means artificial restrictions on character choice, and to others it means you can play in an adventure and know that each character will have something meaningful to contribute to the success of the party. The...

    Any hints for running the 4e version?

    There were changes with the boons in 4e. I had the boon granted by Indomitibility (Tenacity in my game) wear off after the hurricane at the end of adventure 3, Shelter from the Storm. Go over encounters using the Monster Builder or MM3 rules. Many of the encounters were converted before the...

    Santiago Art Previews

    I like the use of light and the watercolor style, but the figures seem to be a bit dark. This may be exaggerated when you go to print (from my own experience) so do some test runs. The city space port scene is cool. It looks like a wretched hive of scum and villainy, perfect for a gritty...

    DM's Suport Group: Most Cliche Player Behaviors Ever

    Drow. It is possible to play one that isn't a Drizz't clone, or a dominatrix bikini babe, or an aloof sadistic biatch, but so often people don't look beyond the stereotypes. Then if you do have someone playing a female drow of the non-evil variety, other players are likely to tell her how she...

    WotBS WotBS #1: The Scouring of Gate Pass

    Try this page. It should have the first several adventure as well as the Player's Guide and Campaign Guide. Once you have the modules, check here under the Resources tab for the Fantasy Grounds version. To find the first page I clicked on the Subscribers Content link from the main page, then...

    The Case For Castles & Crusades

    It sounds like a great system for old school feel and using your first edition adventures. The thing I most disliked about older editions of D&D is Vancian spellcasting. Treebore's addition of an at-will magical blast would help, but it sounds like you'd still have to memorize spells. I...

    Cheat sheet for Shelter from the Storm

    This would have been very useful to have had when I ran Shelter, and I'm sure lots of people will get use out of it, thanks. I will take a look at adventure 5, which we should start next session (in a month :()and put something like this together for it, although that one is more linear IIRC...

    Yes, you can see one of his players in his avatar picture. They are always begging for goodies and waiting for you to throw them a bone, just like my group. :)

    WotBS WotBS critiques for Zeitgeist planning?

    While they are inside Castle Korstul the characters in my game will experience a vision of events that happened the night of Coaltongue's assassination. It will play out as a vignette, with each of the characters taking the part of Coaltongue's guards. They will have a chance to talk to him...

    WotBS WotBS critiques for Zeitgeist planning?

    In WotBS some of them are closely tied to the plot in ways that may not be obvious until 2-3 modules later. A DM who has eliminated Torrent in module 1 without reading Shelter from the Storm (#3), may not realize how important it is that one of the PCs have a connection with Lee Sidoneth, and...

    Skill Challenges: Please stop

    Like making an omelette, skill challenges should start with good ingredients, but how well they turn out depends mostly on technique. A skilled DM can make and run skill challenges that are fun and memorable, just as a skilled chef can make a delicious meal out of basic ingredients. Given...

    Skill-linked monsters (defeated by skill checks)

    Great idea, I'd give you xp, but I apparently gave you some too recently. This sounds like a fun twist on minions, and adds an interesting tactical choice in combat.
