It'd be nice if when the same post sets off two notifications (because it's a quote and in a subscribed thread, for example), you only have to visit it once to clear both notifications.

... assuming no one decided to kick off MAD with Dispel Magic/Greater Dispel Magic/Mord's Disjunction. And the odd 1dX rounds and 1dX+Y rounds durations weren't exactly easy to track either. But I do think effects initiated by players should have been consolidated to 'until end of next turn'...

I'm hoping you're talking about an 8-minute round here, not an 8-minute turn (which in 4e speak is one character's actions). Of course, I'm hoping the OP is, too; 8 min for everyone's actions isn't bad, 8 min for any one person's (other than the DM if there's a lot going on) is terrible.

Action revised.

being small on difficult terrain isn't fun Tana stands up and tries to close with Bandit 2. move: stand up standard: to E8 If Tana is hit by a ranged attack, she will use Fade Away to become invisible until the end of the next turn. If any of the bandits within 10 squares of Tana actually...

No one has acted yet, so it's not retconning anything ...When the bandit's arrow hits Tana it slows as it passes through an arcane barrier, losing most of its force. Tana uses Channeling Shield when she's hit, so the damage is reduced by 8. Channeling Shield (Immediate Interrupt; encounter)...

No one was after taking their actions, which was why Tana burned a level 5 daily; it's her only long-ranged power short of throwing her sword (which is a farbond spellblade, so it's not a completely useless move). But despite the comments in KD's sblock, it's the bad guys' turn. We don't get to...

Initiative as a skill in Star Wars Saga Edition pretty quickly created a situation where effectively every class got one less trained skill, because every PC would train in initiative.

... when invisible castle isn't working.

I'd prefer to just mention immediate interrupts after opportunities came up for them, but I seem to recall you not liking that. Could be wrong.

Also, there are some feats and class abilities that can change the stats you use for melee basic attacks.

Melee basic attack is your "I'm not using a power." melee attack (though the D&Di character builder will make a melee basic attack power card for you).

Tana, gnome female swordmage 5 Tana begins walking up the hill to close with the bandits, stopping to point her blade at one of them and let a burst of arcane fire envelop him. move: as far up the hill as she can in one move climb check (1d20+2=22), probably 3 squares straight ahead unless I'm...

I've played in one campaign in almost 20 years of D&D that made it from first to 20th. I went through 3 characters in it, though.

Ouch. Annoyingly, the bandits seem to have realized that despite being a 3' 8" gnome, Tana is the toughest person in the group (or at least has the most hit points) ... I'll post her action when I get home from work this evening.

Tana is fairly alert. Here you go initiative (1d20+3=16)

... which was kind of silly. If you don't want people to play paladins, why not, err, not put them in the core rulebook?

It's not hard to argue that paladins in D&D ought to be lawful good holy warriors. Heck, I might have posted something to that effect back around the 3.5->4e transition myself. But the thing is if they are, is the paladin really a viable core class in the game? The classic D&D paladin occupies a...
