I was worried about this, but luckily when they got to the caves one of our players was missing for a couple of sessions so we conveniently had his character guard the wagon. As I remember tho, outside the caves there is a little hidey area where the sentries keep watch, surely it would be easy...

This, this and more this! Hoping that lots of extra options are in the DM's guide

I don't mind this approach. They are getting talented individuals to create what hopefully will be exciting adventures, this keeps the core wizard staff free to work on expanding the core rules more (it will be interesting to see what Mearls and co are working on after a taking a well deserved...

I do agree with the point you make around 13th age, a lot of the abilities are in the hands of the gods, so to speak and indeed that is what turned my group off the system (plus the background/skills system, they prefer a hard and fast list of what there characters can do). They often felt...

I have to agree with you here, I mentioned in a previous thread that one of the downsides I was seeing to 5e was that from a mechanically perspective the monsters teased so far don't seem very interesting, a lot of claw/claw/ bite + A.N Other stuff. Hopefully not all monsters are like this...

True, it is always down to personal preference, and we do all have differing tastes (thankfully :) ) I guess i do prefer a little more complexity, but also something that just felt a little more innovative. As an example I think that advantage is a great mechanic, I just wonder if they could...

Hi all I appreciate we've been inundated with 5e first impression, but for what its worth I thought I'd share mine. Firstly, my experiences of 5e are as an owner of the PHB, and someone who is currently DM'ing the starter set. My group and I have have been playing since 2nd ed, and we pretty...

I've always used Leisuregames in the past, been reliable and prompt

Seems a wise move to me. I'm guessing the 4e model of splatbooks wasn't particularly profitable, after all I guess it is catering to a diminishing base (those who already own the system), I can't imagine that seeing Martial Power 2 encouraged many people who didn't own 4e to buy into the...

I think Hasbro has signed a deal with Nestle where you get a free character in every pack of cereal ;) Going from the snippets posted on here from inside sources it is very difficult to work out what they have in mind, I would edge towards a char gen app, or some online suite of tools, I hope...

Arrrrghh no sign yet on Amazon.co.uk, hope we are not left months behind here in the uk , so want to get my grubby mitts on the lot!!

Well I live in the UK and have been a supporter of the Seahawks for about 15 years now, I guess I just like supporting the unfashionable underdog! I really hope they can win it, but I agree with the comments that the Denver O is very strong, I think they'll likely win by about 14 points.

Hi So the next campaign I run will be in 13th age. I'm transitioning over from 4e, so I think my DM'ing style and focus will have to shift accordingly. In regards to this I have a question about icons: i) How do you handle relationship conflicts between PC icons, ie if one member of the group...

Sadly I missed out on the kickstarter for this, however I'd love to get my hands on the print copy, as the game looks amazing and fits right in with a campaign I'm wanting to run by what I've read. So I was wondering, does anyone know if/when the print copy would be getting to UK shores or...

Again thanks for all the replies, this path sounds better and better the more I read about it!! I'm glad that it plays to 4e as well as I really enjoy this system. Another question (sorry!) It seems there are several areas of downtime within the path, is that correct? I ask because I have a...

Thanks for the replies! Just a quick question, I'm planning on running this on 4e, because as a DM I'm put off the prep work for Pathfinder campaigns, however hows does this path run through PF, reading over the intro material I wonder if its a more natural PF fit?

Hi All Its my turn to DM for our 4e group, and they are wanting to try something a little different from the standard 'lotr' style fantasy, so seeing the reviews of Zeitgeist, I thought i'd give it a blast through So as a DM of limited experience, what tips do people have? are there any...

I'm rolling up a monk forthe first time and was interested in the theme fro its +2 to unarmed attacks however, the character builder doesn't seem to add this for the monk powers I've chosen, only my basic attack, even though the powers are listed as Monk unarmed? Is this correct or a bug in...

Thank you :) I'm looking forward to the class, a lot of powers sound great fun! I love the thought of monsters hitting themselves, could lead to some memorable moments!

Hi I'm starting a Paragon tier campaign and I'll be playing an Eladrin mage(enchanter) and he's picked Hypnotism as one of his at wills, and I just have a couple of questions regarding its use. i) Can the attack part of the power be used to make a creature hit itself? Our DM has a tendency to...
