First time I've played grid less in years, but didn't really miss it - there was a pretty strong sense of everyone's location. If we had got a caster, the ability to exclude friens from AoEwould have made no grid less of a tactical problem than otherwise. I was the ranger and yes - fog cloud...

Fascinating video Dedication is everything - Lars Andersen the self taught rapid shooting bow master http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zwXxV5uDq-E What do you think?

Welcome to ENworld! Wow, major thread necromancy! What brought you to this thread, Blacksburg? Presumably a google search on something? Cheers!

I forget to check this nowadays, so thanks for the update. Nice to see verbose Varsuviuus again.

Thread closed, infraction given for edition warring. Extra care please folks, extra care eh? Thanks

I think that general spends for NPC's should probably be considered not so much as their effort as it is 'plot relevance' (hoping that doesn't sound like a dirty word to you!) So they don't do a maximum spend to ensure success each time. Maybe they are husbanding their resources for the rest of...

But wouldn't that argument hold true for melee weapons too? But Strength is used as a combination of both how hard you hit someone and how well you can land a blow in a damaging location - both of which can be equally true for missile weapons too. The strong person is able to use more powerful...

I think I might disagree with you here - because if DEX is great for hit and damage with ranged weapons, AND AC boost, AND initiative boost AND saves against damaging spells, then how does that compare with STR which is just great for hit and damage with melee weapons? On the face of it, Dex...

Don't think we need anyone to be snarky, thanks.

I'm sure that I recently read an article or blog post about this very issue. I think the suggestion was for bad guys to use the minimum spend on a general ability unless that proved unsuccessful, in which case increase the spend (for an example in combat, say). In other situations like a chase...

Oh my goodness! No more news until Thursday 2nd January 2014! ;) Seriously though - thanks for the site and all the effort you put into it Russ. May 2013 be a great year for us!

THanks Mark!

Perhaps the fun here is that a fighter can choose any weapon based upon style and concept rather than 'having' to have particular weapons in order to cause the most damage all the time. I found 3/4e quite boring in that pretty much every fighter I saw gravitated towards the biggest possible...

I've had a couple of dancing practices this week - and in the first one... well, one sound you never like to hear is your back going *crack* :( At least it seems to be muscular injury rather than spinal, and it provides discomfort rather than pain most of the time. I'm determined to do this...

I see the trailers for Oblivion are now out. I like the look of the technology, I'm curious to see how the film pans out. Is it a classic star vehicle for Tom Cruise, or will it be a little more interesting than that? Have you seen the trailer? What do you think?

You are making the classic mistake of mixing up jousting plate armour with actual plate armour used in battle (plate mail). It just doesn't look anything like the way you describe that battlefield. I don't know if you are speaking from the experience of having tried the real thing on, but I've...

My favourite must be Starguild OGL. Because, uh, I wrote it. Never got around to marketing it and trying to sell it, although it has had a number of successful outings at conventions and has been used to run two campaigns (one by me, one by a chap I know). I'd be very happy to let you have a...
