Check the DMG updates. The DC tables on page 42, which are referenced by the skill challenge system, are heavily changed. Also the Skill Challenge system has several changes.

Blade Cascade has errata. According to the errata Blade Cascade hits a maximum of 5 times unless you miss. You can find the details on the wizards website.

I have been running games with gametable since I got KotS a week early. It works really well with skype for voice chat. Anyways if you want to play drop me a pm with your contact information. Later, Rzach

I just finished my first game with my new drow pc. Fun... Lots of Fun... Their encounter option is cool. It really makes them effective as a rogue when they need to be. On the other hand they are missing any other abilities besides the encounter power. So far they have seemed on par with the...

Yeah it's ROLEplaying. But the human feat in 3.x made the other races choices seem worse. I played an elf sorcerer. Lagged behind the party in effectiveness. Played a dwarf fighter. I wasn't as good as the human fighter. It's not apparent at first level. Not even second or third level...

Best. Classes. Ever. But seriously I like the new class designs. They are well designed and function as they should. Anyways back to Drow Rogues and Orc Warlords. Later, Rzach

maybe its not that humans suck so much. Maybe its the fact that in 3.x all of the other races seemed like poor choices in the face of the bonus human feat. 8 years of humans...... Now you look at the 4e races and realize that playing an elf or dwarf is a good choice. A choice on par with a...

Jail cells can hold Eladrins if the doors are solid and there is no way an Eladrin can see outside the cell. Teleport requires line of sight. Later, Rzach

In point 14 you mention that the wizard has 3 near identical rays. This has been pointed out as not being true already. But did you know that a wizard is not affected by a burst that he casts unless the power states other wise? That is covered in the dm rules in the adventure. Also the origin...

My group only has three players currently. I am allowing my players to use the two extra characters as npc's who journey with the group. Each of these "npc" characters is controlled by a player during combat. Outside of combat they don't really matter much. They can contribute more if the...

I hate RP experience both as a player and as a dm. When I first started playing oWoD larp I played a Tremere who was very manipulative. Now the very fact that, after every game I played in, the ST made statements on how effective I was as my character should have gotten me at least one...

I bought my copy from Waldenbooks on Saturday (17th). So I presume other stores should have copies on their shelves. Later, Rzach

Having ran two sessions this weekend of 4e using my copy of KotS I can say I will never go back to running or playing 3.x. 4e is where my money is going to go. Later, Rzach

I really liked 3.0 when it launched. I played a sorcerer with spells from the Diablo expansion. For a while the game was fun. Then they started making splat books for the classes. Ninja of the Crescent Moon.... Suddenly the game was not so much fun. But we still played and we made house rules...

So how many people are running 4e games with KotS this weekend? I ran my first game today and will be running it again tomorrow. Now I just wonder if I will be able to get the 4e main books early..... later, Rzach

Rules SPOILER below. Edit: Guess it's not need now. Cool that so many people have managed to get early copies. Later, Rzach

Well I was supposed to have a birthday party today but everyone cancelled.....(My actual birthday was a few days ago but no one could get off work then either..) So I went to the mall this morning to visit the game shop and see if they had a preview copy of the KotS. After looking at it I...

The cleric was a spellcasting class in 3e. They needed a high wisdom to cast upper level spells. Really I don't see much of a difference between 3e and 4e in that regard. In fact every edition of D&D promoted this kind of play style. If a character didn't place their best stats in their primary...

What I really like about the Raise Dead issue is how it allows me to create an adventure or entire campaign out of returning a person to life. This idea keeps running around my head so I thought I would share it. Say a king is killed. He is in the prime of his life and well loved by the...

I am pro 4e. I have burned out on 3.x. While I don't hate 3.x, I am not it's biggest fan. But when a company tries to fix a game my curiosity gets the better of me. From a rules perspective I am curious about the fixes to 3.x game mechanics. So yesterday I went and downloaded the Pathfinder...
