    Wooden Minis?

    Dragonfire Lasercrafts makes wooden tokens, but compared to the cost of printing counters on cardstock they are expensive. For my 4e game, I use Fiery Dragon's counters and print them on heavy cardstock. I also use Alea Tools conversion material and magnetic markers, but that's just my...

    Underdark fighting and possible D&D Mini rules?

    Well, for any kind of mass combat that you might want to do, I would recommend taking a look at a new product that just released from One Bad Egg. It's called Hardboiled Armies, and it's their take on using the existing 4e ruleset to do mass combat. I bought it earlier today and I've only...

    things i like/dislike about PHB2 - a sort of review

    Some players enjoy running a character who has weaknesses. I am always surprised when I hear people say "who wouldn't take <x feat/skill/class feature>!". Almost none of the people I've gamed with over the past 20 years were serious min/maxers. Not saying your opinion isn't valid, just saying...

    Spirit Talker

    I personally don't feel that it's implied at all, but that could just be me. The way I read that Feat is you get the powers it says you get, at the frequency it says you get them, but you don't get any of the other options from either the Protector or Stalker spirit options. It certainly...

    W00T!!! Welcome back, Rev! You gave us all quite a scare there. And you've got a heck of a woman there in Mandy.

    Choose to use "Immediate Interrupts"

    I think you may be misinterpreting the OP's question...it sounds to me like they are asking if you HAVE to use it when the situation arises, or if you as a player can choose NOT to use the power and save it for another time...which of course is an emphatic YES. There is absolutely nothing that...

    Are weapon mastery feats intended to be *class-specific* multiclass feats?

    To answer the OP's question, as of this morning - Yes. See the article "the Art of the Kill" here (you must be a subscriber): Dragon 373: Art of the Kill The relevant text: "Weapon Mastery feats have appeared before in “We Who Are About to Die . . .” (Dragon 368, page 56) and “Playing...

    Excel question:

    Nytmare, when I try to open your file after downloading it, I get all kinds of crazy errors and ultimately end up with a corrupted workbook. Any thoughts on what might be the issue? I'd like to take a look at what you've done. Oompa, for what it's worth here is a different take on the idea...

    You're welcome...glad I could help.

    Excel question:

    Ok, I threw this together...not "exactly" how I might do it given time to really think it through, plus I am at work so I was doing it in stealth mode. In this example, you have your hit points in A1, damage in B1, and healing in C1. You have to click the appropriate button after entering...

    Excel question:

    What you want can certainly be done, but not the simple way using only formulas...a little bit of VBA coding comes into play...let me fiddle and see what I come up with (been a while, my Excel VBA might be a little rusty!)

    RE: Reveille

    Mandy, I don't know Rev personally, but I remember reading his posts as Frukathka on several occasions. My thoughts and prayers are with you, Rev, and his loved ones, hoping for a speedy recovery.

    Tact-Tiles: The End

    This. The ultimate would be if they could somehow be both clear AND magnetically attractive, but I'm not sure that is possible. But magnetic is the way to go, since I have now made a substantial investment in the Alea Tools magnetic markers.

    Flanking with... yourself?

    There is a rule in Iron Heroes (based on the 3.5 ruleset) that lets you flank with yourself if you begin your turn on one side of the target and move into attack position on the other side. Perhaps this is what you were thinking of...but nothing like this in any of the D&D rules of any version...

    Power (healing surge) items

    That's what I love about this community - the WotC folks are always willing to drop in and set the record straight! Now I'm off to make a note to myself that I was wrong.... :blush:

    Power (healing surge) items

    And that's why I said it's not the only interpretation... :D

    Power (healing surge) items

    I respectfully disagree. As you quoted above "Healing Surge: You begin with one use of the power per day, like a daily power." To me that pretty clearly says that they function like Daily powers. So in my campaign they ARE Daily Powers, but with the benefit of a recharge mechanism. But it is...

    Custom character sheets for DDI char builder?

    Has anyone put together any custom character sheets for the Character Builder yet? I believe I saw somewhere that it's possible to grab the output file from the builder and dump it out to a custom sheet other than the one the builder makes....or am I mistaken?
