I'll mention now that I'm really enjoying Madness at Gardmore Abbey now that I've started it. We're two sessions in, and it's cool. Session one Session two As for ZEITGEIST, we're two sessions into it so far as well, and it's definitely awesome for a group that wants more story. I think my...

Edit: It looks like the spot has been filled now. Thanks! I have an opening in my long-running Friday night game in the War of the Burning Sky campaign. We play using MapTool and Skype on Friday evenings. The PCs are currently 17th-18th level, and it's a pretty balanced party. If you're...

Well, I'm still new to the game (only started at the beginning of 2010). I have one group that I've gamed with in-person since January 2010 (we've added two players, but the original five are all still there - and we just played today!). I also have my online group that's been running since July...

For what it's worth, my local library currently has one 4e Player's Handbook on shelf, 4 4e DMGs and 1 DMG2. They also have one copy of the Pathfinder Core Rulebook (which I had previously checked out before buying my own copy) and three copies of the Pathfinder Bestiary. They also have a few...

I haven't given Gary XP in a while, so I thought I'd flex my Silver Subscriber muscles and do my part. For Gary!

I originally planned to do this long ago, but since I'm only getting my ZEITGEIST campaign going now, well, better late than never. I've finished putting together a MapTool file for the first ZEITGEIST adventure (4e version), The Island at the Axis of the World. The framework is my own, not a...

Could someone XP Umbran for me? He's apparently been awesome too recently for me to re-XP him. I had no idea I could link to a specific post via the number. Yes, it's annoying to lose the context, but there've been times that I've wanted to link to a particular post on my blog or other places...

Got it, thanks. I'm not much of a video gamer, so I didn't get the 3/4 perspective reference at all. Also, it's so annoying that permalinks on EN World don't work properly if your number of threads per page is set differently than the person who shared the link! Sigh. I was still able to find...

I'm currently running three separate 4e campaigns, plus occasional games at the local store or conventions. 4e has gotten me into blogging about the game, which has in turn led to making new friends and going to GenCon. Yep, I love D&D Fourth Edition.

Could you explain these terms? I don't think I've heard them before, and I'm not quite sure what you're getting at... but it sounds interesting!

Thanks for the follow-up! For what it's worth, Darkfire does require an attack roll. But if the intention is for Faerie Fire to just work without an attack roll, that's cool.

This apparently exists, as Dungeons Master has had some posts from a D&D camp counselor: Confessions of a D&D Camp Councilor ? Dungeon's Master More Confessions of a D&D Camp Councilor ? Dungeon's Master Confessions of a D&D Camp Councilor: Year II ? Finding the Ideal DMs ? Dungeon's Master...

I'm excited to have FINALLY gotten my ZEITGEIST campaign off the ground on Christmas Day. We had a blast with the first session. Now I'm prepping for Act Two, and I was a little puzzled by the Rebel Investigator's powers. - Fey Mists does the same damage as the Shillelagh, but it also blinds...

I make the powers fit the situation. I have no problem believing that the vicious words of a skilled bard can even inflict psychic damage on the undead. A fighter is intimidating enough to taunt all sorts of enemies into rushing toward him. If it seems counter-intuitive, I find a way to make it...

kitcik: As someone who enjoys 4th Edition D&D, I can tell you that I don't like Fortune Cards at all, and we don't use them in my games. I play games at the FLGS, and a few people use Fortune Cards there; most do not. I see it as an experiment from WotC, one that, based on my limited...

Well, note that if you do +1 per level, you'll actually get +29 over the course of your career (you start at 1, so the first +1 is at level 2). Which means that basically PCs already get +1 per level. If you're +6 to hit at level 1, you're probably +34 to hit at level 30; under your proposal...

For my online game (myself as DM, 5 regular players), I'm the only one who DMs for this particular group of people, but I know that two others also DM for other groups; maybe a third does, too (I'm not sure). For my family game (myself as DM, 3-4 regular players) I'm the only one with DM...

I said 2-5, but upon further reflection it was actually 6. I play and run a ton of D&D 4e. That's 90% of my gaming. I played three sessions of Pathfinder in a campaign that never really got going. I ran a two-session game of Gamma World (the adventure that came with the box). And at a...

First, keep in mind that I'm still a relatively new player. I've been playing for about two years, and almost all of that has been D&D 4th Edition. In home games, I've played with four different DMs including myself. One of the four is a woman. She ran four or five sessions last summer. In...

I'm not sure if this is a new thing or not, but I've noticed that the permalinks to individual posts in forum threads contain a link to the page number in the thread, which doesn't work properly if you set your number of posts per page to be something different than whoever is clicking on the...
