I totally disagree with the OP's premise that doing nothing may conserve party resources. Not taking actions is always counterproductive. Every skipped player turn just increases the odds of an enemy action that damages the party. Even if the action is simply to move into a flank, using aid...

Sure-- but the catch is that it only works on green-skinned aliens. :)

This was really bugging me, so I re-watched the scene online. There are tiny visual cues that Sylar was never in the car, and instead using Matt's projection power on Danko. Watch again, paying attention to Danko getting ready to light his cigarette. Unfortunately, without any visual cues for...

Capn- Thanks, that is really helpful. I read all over the place about how easy it is to create monsters and NPCs for 4e, but still feel like I do not quite grok how it works (despite having re-read the DMG pages several times). I think you nailed it: I am looking for a "conversion tool" where...

I am converting some old A Series modules from 1e into 4e. I see the most-basic rules for creating NPCs in the DMG, but wonder if there is a more detailed process identified anywhere? Basically I am looking for a step-by-step guide for Dummies style. Any tips or references are helpful!

Don't Give Up All Hope, Heroes Fans! For the two or three of us still watching Heroes... don't give up quite yet! Tonight's episode is really solid. Even the stupid Ando & Hiro as babysitters had a cool payoff. Check it out.

I believe that the more simple the read, the better, to avoid corner case confiusion. So, I like that Sustain =/ Provoke answer. If you do want Sustain to Provoke when it is an Attack (as some propose here) then I think it matters when a power is a conjuration. That way, zones and Giant Ice...

Hiya Folks! I am about to begin converting the A1-4 Slavelords module series for some 4e gaming old school style. This is a placeholder thread for now, but I will begin posting over the next couple of days. Any feedback and/or suggestions will be welcome. I plan a heroic tier conversion.

Hey, you know what? I felt bad for the guy (and his "fiancee") and now I feel like a sap. I have had two friends die young-- an ex-girlfriend at 22 and a former teammate at 38 leaving his wife and kids behind. I was also *in* a coma after a car accident, and know first-hand the kind of worry...

LOL Thanks for indulging me, RL. :) I guess Peter is Matt Dillon. Or maybe Claire. Whichever one oscillates back to bada$$ instead of angsty at the time of that episode. :D

Yes, and it will be exactly like the epic fight in the park in "My Bodyguard" back in 1980. Sylar = a great Linderman. Danko is plenty short enough to be an excellent Clifford (aka Chris Makepeace, ironically enough.) If you find this joke post to be anything other than uproriously hilarious...

I have seen this general premise knocking Prism Pentad for "wiping out" the Dark Sun setting several times, but always find it a bit baffling. Troy Denning was one of the co-developers of the setting itself as well as the author of the book series. Give your last points about "certain...

Rock on-- good show! High Points: * Sylar fighting PsychoDaddy * Lunch with Ma Petrelli Low Points: * Kyle. If the dude is just window dressing, can we just kill him off? * HRG standing in awe when Hunter tosses Nathan out the window. C'mon, man, throw him out after! Shoot him! Be your...

Shrug Apparently, I am in a tiny minority of GRRM fans: I thought the Fire & Ice series was boring as paint drying (at least the first two that I endured) but then I *love* the Wild Cards books, even the two released in the last few years. Who knew? Shrug.

Can I second the vote for nude Jessica Alba? (Preferably not with Jeff Wilder there...)

Seconded. And, for exactly that reason, I am very glad that the costumers for Watchmen adapted looks from other superhero movies (notably the Batman series, suit nipples and all) to deconstruct that genre just as the graphic novel did with print comics. Very smart. Let the media work with...

That is too awesome. But I do believe it is only a matter of time before Sylar eats his brain. At least, I hope so.

I agree with everthing Blastin says here. That is exactly my line of thinking in being disappointed when Claire just surrendered to Hunter without any fight at all. I literally thought, "You are supposed to be all bad-a** now, and don't even hit this guy? You are IMMORTAL for crying out loud...

Remus- I am glad to see I am not quite the lone voice in the wilderness here-- but I also liked this episode! I really liked Sylar's bits; somehow the notion of him corrupting another mixed up kid makes him even more villainous. I loved his self-descrption as a force of nature; that...
