Sticking with 4th ed, mainly because I've Dm'ed 3 and 3.5 for 6 years and I'm still burned out. Nothing I have seen of Pathfinder seems to promise relief from that kind of DM fatigue, though I'd still gladly play it if opportunity presented itself.

I beg to disagree I believe the OP had it right. the charge stops adjacent to the target (move ends) and the attack is launched. in no case does the charge attack state that an attack can be made any time during the charge movement, only at the end of it. In this case the defender reacted by...

Dead tree user here, so color me unconcerned over the whole pdf deal. the only way they could remove access to my manuals would be if they showed up in person and took them away. :heh:

Nostalgia kicked in upon re-reading this thread: I'm off to install P:Torment again! what a genius of a game.

Planescape Torment hands down, followed by BGII: Shadows of Amn as a close second.

1. Psionics: Very good, especially when used with the various variants taht make it separate and disticnct from magic 2. Tome of Battle: Never used it 3. Fighter Sux: Fighters suck 4. Wizard and CoDzilla overpowered to the point of game disruption: very tiresome and the main reason...

I vehemently reccomend Winter Rose by Patricia McKillip

good suggestions all... I'd add Anuna, The Battlefield Band, Moire Brennan and Kate Rusby

Same group for 18 yrs, D&D almost the entire way with brief exploratory forays into other genres. they are: Male 35 Carabiniere (Italian military police) Male 29 Data Coordinator Male 29 Grad Student Male 29 Hotel Receptionist Male 28 Grad Student Male 27 Software Engineer Male 26 Tour...

Nifty little thing! I'll gladly friend fellow ENworld members who want to give it a try.

Thanks all of you for the great advice! I'll scribble it all down and start planning encounters ASAP. thanks again!

I have recently begun brainstorming in earnest for the beginning of my first 4th edition campaign and my players are very much looking forward to the new system, to the point where they have come up with a consolidated background for all their PCs. So far so good, unfortunately they chose to...

I've been using a standard Endurance check for light armor (I don't count cloth armor as an armor as far as sleeping in it goes) and a difficult Endurance check for Heavy armor types. failure results in one or more healing surges being lost due to chafing, sleeplessness and other such discomforts.

Loved that series! It was partly responsible form my getting into D&D and roleplaying, along with LoTR and the Hobbit. I'm very lucky to have held on to my "collection" for all these years, and I'm still looking to complete it. Given how hard to find they are on Ebay and so forth in the US I'm...

Thanks for all the replies, your collected wisdom was invaluable. I'll stick to the RAW and see how it works from there!

My group is eagerly awaiting the start of our new 4e campaign, so far most of my players seem to really like most of the new mechanics, especially the focus on group tactics and whatnot. there are however two concerns that some of my old-timers have brought up: The magic system and the lack of...

Garth Nix anyone?

Yes, it most definitely can work... how do I know? my group gets to game only once a year. Don't get me wrong, it is far from an ideal situation... gaming once a month would be a dream come true! As it is it only works because this is a group that forged bonds decades ago, we are not only...

Just a suggestion, but since we mentioned theoretical encounters and all: Wouldn't it make more sense to pit them against a Solo? As in convert your Brute earth Titan into a Solo Earth Titan and see what happens...

You kidding me? 4e has a DM , that pretty much grinds good old DIII into the dust in terms of gameplay, rules and whatever else one can add to the mix... well barring graphics, but who needs those into a TTRPG anyways?
