I love Tekken, too, but 4e reminds me not at all of Tekken. Whether you like or dislike surges is a subjective measure, to be sure, but whether they make the difference between a half-hour combat and a three-hour combat is not a measure of their Tekken-ness. I question whether surges causes...

I can't say I'll do a good job, I know nothing about 4e druids, but if no one else steps up, I will run the Irregulars. Hopefully, PA drains soon and twilsy gets back to us, but I am willing to do a (probably bad)job of running the Irregulars in the meantime. I checked the news the other day...

And one last bit: I've seen a lot of people describe HP as concrete over the years. It's a constant thorn in my side, and why I'm so happy bringing up a new generation of gamers. I've heard that HP should be concrete since 1e, the idea making 0 sense all the way, and I've accepted it as one...

Yeah, I can see that. It's really not. The HP system is and has never been an honest attempt to represent purely physical damage. I get that you see this more since 4e. 4e forces people to face the issue, because it actually takes its own flavor seriously. Let me say this plain, with bold...

If it were me, I'd run the campaign, and there would be danger to the PCs' treasure hoard. However, they would have hints about it, maybe even very direct hints, if they seemed not to get it. If they choose not to place any safeguards on treasure after being told it isn't necessarily safe as...

I am in agreement with Mercurius. Give us who are tired of 5e rumors a break. Take the 5e threads away from the places I check for interesting, semi-rational discussion. Make general once again be a place for non-edition based threads.

I approve of your idea of handling a small party of cannibals as a skill challenge, but I want to take them all. This adventure, I don't know whether it's your running of it or the writing, but I care for our campmates. I want to take all these cannibals at once, or as much as we can. These...

No. The essentials books contain the rules, the same rules used for 4e play. Yes. I've seen pretty much every side of this. I've played PHB characters next to essentials characters, essentials characters next to PHB characters and Dmed for both at the same time, including during the campaign...

Oh, I've got you covered, I have a bunch of...waaaiiiit...you wanted non-pornographic images. Huh. I'm just gonna go quietly reflect on how much my personal standards of beauty differ from western civilizational norms now. Don't mind me.

Except that still happens in 4e. A cleric can only heal one person per turn. Randy may be able to second wind, but that is still a very much inferior solution to getting his own cleric healing. Randy the Ranger using his second wind in 4e is not unlike Clark the Cleric hitting things with his...

I do that, too, regardless of edition, but it only makes healing even more mechanically similar to surges. In 4e, healing is X per day, internal to the character, in old Es with no wands, healing is X per day, internal to one character(the cleric).

I prefer 5 and a DM, though I'm willing to go as low as 2 and a DM. Though, it's been many years since I didn't have a line of players, necessitating capping my game at 5. More than 5 and encounters get wonky in ways I'm not always prepared to adjust for, because there are simply more...

Hey guys, been sitting on this for awhile, but I've been too shy to ask for it, until I saw another player request a game. I'd really like to play Paizo's Kingmaker AP in 4e. I feel I could RP the crap out of it, and I don't think I'm the only one who'd bite. That being said, I make a...

I'm also in for cannibal hunting.

I thought it was funny. Also, it's nice to know there are other people tired of the rampant 5e speculation that has been going on lately.

Satoshi turns to Kjula and returns the bow. "Greetings to you as well, though I am no warrior. I am, however, interested in doing what I can to right the wrongs of this day." As Satoshi speaks, he seems to become more animated, more excited. "A well entrance, you say? If these goblin...

The excitement begins to take root in Noriaki, as well. His movements and speech become more animated. "Yes, this could work. But who to do the farce ceremony? I can put on an official looking ritual, but perhaps it would be better if it were someone unarmed. I know not every member of our...

If the statement is "Yes, we are." then sure, but I've yet to see statements from WotC calming people down if that statement contradicts what people are worked up about in the first place.

It seems to me that if you have a problem with procrastination and avoidance, and RPGs are a means you use to that end, then you need to address the problem of procrastination and avoidance. If you just cut out the means, you may well end up finding another means.

Satoshi takes the rope and examines it for a moment, to figure out how it works, then he follows Dossk.
