Just be careful with the rat guy, hes a little more butch than other monsters, especially with his at will and aura. Good advice, Although it makes thematic and narrative sense for all the kobolds, goblins and hobgoblins, chucking in a few trained or even untrained attack beasts may make...

Have I now? I think i'm going to put little electrocution devices on the seats and electrocute all players who take longer than 45 seconds for a turn.

Yep, those are the erratas, all handily dated so you know if you have the latest ones. One other thing i'd point out, that power cards would be a big help for your players, it saves flicking through the rulebook to look up powers. Also there are plenty of threads on Enworld discussing the...

So erm yeah, hi, I DM, I'm currently DMing Keep on the Shadowfell. We've been going at a reasonable pace of 1-2 fights per 3 hour session, last night they decided to wander through the terror maze, not daring to touch a single rune, eventually they decided to go to the south and after slaying...

Thats exactly how i'm running stealth at the moment, if integrated with the compendium stealth. You can move like a ninja silently and stealthy like if you start totally obscured and then remain in cover, or you can use the cover / concealment you have to make you movements indistinct and get...

I'm right there with you, i cringed the first time i read his name out to the players. Do you mind if i insist on football ;), but i think it's easy enough to just call him Kreegan instead. Published modules do seem a bit cringeworthy in places, kots spoiler the message on Ninaran from...

I was pronouncing it pay-draig until a session or two later my players said you do know its pronounced pa-drig another version of Patrick apparently. Dance magic dance!

I roll a dice. I use a power to reroll 2nd roll. I use a power to reroll the 2nd roll 2nd roll in relation to the 2nd use of reroll. It doesn't fall down on the 2nd roll reading, it falls down from the fact that you haven't used the reroll power until you've...

I've not seen it remarked anywhere that that is the case. *shrug* They may be talking about erm powers that grant other players actions. Say knights move, a Warlord 2 utility that means as a move action you can grant another player the ability to move their speed. The only other thing they...

Hmmm lets see how i was caught up in rpg. My parents bought me back fantasy books from the library. I played fighting fantasy books. I read my big brothers AD&D DMG. I played heroquest and space crusade. I played W40k. I played discworld MuD I played Angband and variants. I went to uni and...

Fair enough, apology accepted. I also accept you have a different play/dm style. I suppose I find that a tough balanced fight that you can win is as far as i'll go with 4e. In 3e i used to just set up the map and place the monsters where it would make sense for them to be and if the players...

So if a kobold with a stat block saying wearing no armour and carrying a spear and light spear would be described the same as a kobold wearing leather armour and carrying two short swords? I don't get your point. Surely the ones with two shorts swords (skyblades) are described along the lines...

Afternoon, and work is almost over.

Erm that doesn't ring true. All minion creatures have descriptions which mean you can easily pick out which of the kobolds are weaker than the others, have a look through the monster manual the creatures get blatently differing descriptions. Players and characters should be smart enough to...

Thats mainly cause traps aren't built like that anymore, they are meant to work like a combat encounter so players can react to the trap in intiative. How about Lock Trap - lvl 1 trap A needle hidden in the door is sprung when the door is opened, the needle is coated in a potent poison...

Got to completely agree with you there, especially if the wizard in my party is still chucking out his cloud of daggers that does one point of damage. Maybe something as easy as a minion takes 1 hit from at wills 2 from encounter powers and 3 from dailies and give minions 1 hit per tier? Still...

Does falling asleep drunk on the local bus route and waking up in the bus depot which i had no clue where it was qualify?

Are you implying that shes a monster? Wonder what sound she makes.

Surely the whole point of whether he uses the boots or not is moot, he uses the boots which makes the square where the warder is standing illegal for him to stand in, you then move the warder back to the last legal square but all the prior movement and actions have still happened.

I must say that our wizard seems to have been missing a lot, flaming sphere seems to make up for this, once a day. One thing that may help is to train stealth as a skill, its not very sexy but, all you need to do is use your move action (which you say you aren't using) to get to cover make your...
