I just gave my PC's a sword I swiped from a China Mieville book with some modifications of my own. It is called the Possible Sword. It has up to 42 charges. With each attack you can spend a charge and roll 3 attack dice. Each one that hits is real, and damage is rolled normally. The sword...

Funny, my group would have killed the Sphinx and kept all o fthe treasure. They even horde mundane objects. (We have a very greedy evil group) I could see my group doing this, but with a bunch of oil flasks and a fireball. Maybe the group would have been quicker to trade if it was for...

I totally agree..... except during drunken D and D! Better have a cover for that center part if you have kids or cats.... Or in my case, a wife who likes to fold clothes in that general area. How big is the opening? Looks like it is almost big enough for Heroclix as well. (No colossals.)

If it never works, how can the players really fear it? Why call it a death effect if it isnt so much a death effect as a string of ways to escape a death effect? We have a character die every few months. Sometimes they are doing something heroic. Or in the case of the evil campaign I'm...

My only suggestion? Cup/Beer/soda can holders. Everyone drinks while you are mad gaming for hours, and holders would keep the table and accessories safe.

You sir have inspired me. I have a table that I fit over an old kitchen table in my basement for Heroclix games, but I have to say I love your table. That may have to be my summer project.

Know whats fun? Do away with currency all together. EVERYTHING is barter. Want to buy some food, and only have magic items, or adventure gear? Have to find another way to pay? This is fun in role play heavy campaigns.

As for 4E, it felt more like playing DDO than a pen and paper RPG. Or maybe more like a superhero RPG than D and D.

It gets monotonous when you have to keep saying "he said.... and now you translate that to the party" Especially when the translator might want to edit what he translates....

My players found a bag of 12 identical rings each inscribed with a single number. A player with one ring can send a short message to the wearer of another ring as a free action consisting of 10 wors or less. The message is sent via telepathy. Best way to get everyone together, or call for...

This is why I never plan anything concrete more than a session or two ahead. Do I have maps? Yup. Do I have NPCs, monsters and treasures? Yup. But I never put them in too much of an order because thats when they figure out a way around the cool encounter/recurring evil NPC/giant treasure...

I was not as impressed with 4E to stick around and find out, and as for rolling up new characters, I love it as much as anyone else. I just hate to do it because the character looked around a corner and just died. That doesnt make me want to roll up another character.

See? Everything gets resurected in Dungeons And Dragons!

I don't like the auto kill type attacks. I try to stay away from them especially if the party doesnt have a resurrectionist. It's no fun to run a character up to level 10 or so them just die. These are heroes. They should dies heroes deaths.

This is a great idea! Just what we need. More layers of complexity for spells!

Have you asked him why he playes like he does? Maybe he likes to get killed? Are his characters all named Kenny?

My 4 year old Daughter likes to steal the dice, but My friend's 6 year old son guest stars in my campaing every now and then. Biggest thing I think the young ones have to overcome is that D and D takes a LONG time. If you as the DM can break it down to shorter lengths of game play, they will...
