    Players: Do You Buy Your Own Miniatures?

    Allow me to answer on my behalf of my players. "No." Wallet: :uhoh:

    Defenders require bad AI from monsters

    Good guess. :p I'm not sure how relevant any of that is. The monsters would want to flee if they had knowledge of their opponents that they don't actually have?

    D&d xp

    ??? +1 hide (+4 AC) Int (+0 AC) 1/2 lvl (+1 AC) = AC 15 Even bigger typo... if they used Int then why didn't they use Dex? The barb actually has a Dex bonus...

    D&d xp

    Sound analysis. Looks like the shaman sends his spirit companion in to work his leader mojo in melee, while the shaman himself hangs back in a less crowded area and uses his ranged powers. Me likes.

    D&d xp

    Ohhhh yeah, forgot about that part! :p Shaman looks mighty nifty too... About the AC - +1 hide (+4 AC) Con (+3 AC) 1/2 lvl (+1 AC) = AC 18 Typo?

    Thanks for the heads-up Cadfan! *screeching tires* Looks like the barb lost that Rage Strike at-will...

    Heads up WotC! The Character Visualiser should deliver this!

    OK, that's really sweet. Thanks for the link, Raven. Yeah, too bad WotC is working on delivering us so many other things right now. I'd love to get custom minis for an entire party! Ahh, what a pipe dream. *hides pipe*

    Defenders require bad AI from monsters

    This does not compute. The monsters are meat for the grinder unless they bring insurmountable numbers to the encounter? Anything less is automatic suicide? This is 100% false. Perhaps in Regi's experience it isn't, but if that's so then I'd like to invite him to one of my games.

    Heads up WotC! The Character Visualiser should deliver this!

    What potential! Hey, I couldn't find any pics of finished models, just the virtual ones. Are there any available?

    Explain the Lich, Please.

    There are a lot of cool new liches in Open Grave - check it out if you haven't yet. Otherwise I would suggest using the lich template in the DMG for crafting a BBEG. As Nebulous said, you could always take the base lich, use the DMG guidelines for making him a solo, and slap on a few extra...

    Preview: The Sorcerer

    ??? Sorcerer's are arcane... But yeah, it's mostly flavor.

    D&D 4E Goodbye Descent. How 4e Made this Jaded Dad Love D&D Again.

    Amazing post! Had me smiling the entire time. That sig is killer too! Everyone rep this gentleman, quick!

    My B&N has Open Grave...

    Yup, a trend I'm pleased to see continue. This particular index is quite massive, taking up almost 2 pages. Great book IMO. I'm especially impressed with the various adventure hooks and attached encounters. They're pretty interesting and many of them feature unique monsters. My only...

    Battlerager: Experiences?

    A PC of mine switched his dwarf fighter over to a Battlerager with the racial feat that improves the class feature. After 3 sessions (2 at 6th level, one at 7th) I've asked him to consider nerfing the class feature in some way or just switching back to the old class feature. I really enjoyed the...

    Solos: Using AP for the BIG ESCAPE

    I've never thought of using both of a solo's APs at once. I guess there's nothing stopping them from doing so... :devil: Using an AP to escape instead of attack is a great trick though, and it sure causes shaking fists and gnashing teeth amongst PCs! Dragons can really put this idea to good...

    Open grave Excerpt: Demilich (and other lich lore)

    Yeah! It should be a minilich! I can't wait to use this guy. Lots of abilities to use across the span of an encounter, many of them straight-up nasty and simple to manage for the DM. Approved! That healing ability is evil too!

    Hit Points & Healing Surges Finally Explained!

    Great quote then! I thought that all came from the heart! Another good example, too. That's how my games go though - a very heavy dose of what I think is "cool" and very little of what anyone would consider "real."

    LOL And don't drown in that pool of your own blood! *rolls friend over on back*

    Hit Points & Healing Surges Finally Explained!

    Yeah it could be silly, but I would also argue cinematic for the warlord's words to be so rousing as to wake his allies from violence-induced comas. Makes me think of the grizzled vet who is pulling his knocked-out friend across a shellshocked battlefield, yelling at him to snap out of it. It...
