    If you had 1 year to plan a weekend of gaming, what would you do?

    Cool. I discussed it with a few of the potential attendees today, and depending on how many people show up, what I'd like to do is some kind of "group play" where multiple adventuring parties are all experiencing the same thing, at the same time, although perhaps from different approaches. (I...

    Iron DM 2009 - FINAL MATCH - it's over!

    As I am only just now getting them myself, as it turns out noon was functionally equivalent to 3:30.

    I'd buy that in PDF. If I could.

    Iron DM 2009 - FINAL MATCH - it's over!

    I have a lot of commitments on Friday afternoons, so a later delivery date buys me no extra time. I'm willing to split the difference with IVV and take a 3:30 delivery, which means I'll get mine the same amount of time in advance that I won't have to work on it on Friday. Reasonable?

    I like a noontime delivery.

    If you had 1 year to plan a weekend of gaming, what would you do?

    It depends on the kind of planning. I have nearly all the Skeleton Key eAdventure Tile sets, for example, Photoshop, a wide plotter, and my projector. So I could get a lot of cool maps done in a year. As in, every square inch. If I knew what I wanted to run/play. And honestly, part of this...

    Zing! Zing! Ok, I have to admit, that really is my style. I'm trying to avoid that.

    Why I'm done with 4e

    Fair point, Steve.

    If you had 1 year to plan a weekend of gaming, what would you do?

    Anything D&D related, any edition, across one relatively uninterrupted weekend of gaming. What would you like to run? What would you like to play? Anything unexpected or irregular you think you'd want to prepare for?

    Why I'm done with 4e

    I'm just saying, it's a little unusual to barge into a conversation that doesn't interest you, merely to tell the participants that the topic of their conversation is meaningless and doesn't interest you, and they therefore (I suppose) need to talk about something else...? I'm guessing that is...

    Why I'm done with 4e

    You seem to be under the impression that the conversation must necessarily lead to some outcome, as opposed to merely being a conversation for its own sake. Which makes your own late-breaking and meaningless commentary unusual. Unless the goal you are attempting to accomplish is to shut down...

    Why I'm done with 4e

    You have a strange fascination with this meaningless thread.

    Spells which were not properly nerved...

    True, and a good one, and I appreciate the thought-provoking. You're about 3 editions ahead of me then. ;) Double the amount of BODY can also be accomplished by halving the base damage it does... Agreed, but I personally find it easier to just say, "Creatures that are bloodied suffer a -4...

    Spells which were not properly nerved...

    That's fine as a design principle-- and I like it just fine in HERO-- but it does make the spell more powerful, not less. Hit points are derived from Hit Dice. Saving throws are also derived from Hit Dice. There's already a "hit point" connection in every saving throw, via the advancing save...

    [Weekend Design] New Classes?

    A little more brainstorming this weekend, and here's the state of things (see attached jpg). Self-explanatory? Quick note about the Barbarian/Scout, Swashbuckler/Rogue columns-- the Arcane/Divine split has no relevance to a non-caster; rather, the split at this level is melee-based or...

    Iron DM 2009 - FINAL MATCH - it's over!

    Thanks, Thasmodious... I will do my best! By the way, your self-judgment above shows some good insight-- I expect you will do well in future tourneys (if you are not put off by the grueling experience this time around!)

    [Weekend Design] New Classes?

    Regarding the "psionic" variant of the monk and his affiliated brethren, is it: PSION PSYCHIC WARRIOR MONK or PSION MONK ??? etc. Whatcha reckon? And yes, for the record, this could force me to do some development work with psionics...
