    How Many People Play Table Top RPG?

    Companion characters as PC

    Isn't that the point? FWIW I am having good success with using Companion Characters for PCs in the following situations: 1. Absent players; 2. Players who want reduced options; 3. One shots; and 4. Flashbacks where players play NPCs.

    E2: Kingdom of Ghouls & Group Skill Challenges

    That is how they work now, or at least how they can work. SKill Challenges have a very flexible design and should vary according to the desired result. FWIW the group skill challenges you mention are appropriate in some challenges, especially to represent the progress of time. It also...

    Demon Queens Enclave - Session Reports

    I haven't achieved 6 encounters in 3 hours (we use minis and have 5 PCs), but I average 1 encounter every 45 to 50 minutes. This is even the case with complete newbies to the system. You achieve it by acting fast on your turn and knowing what your options are.

    4E: Intro adventure/group suggestion

    Yes its in the first 4e one (155?) Another good low level Dungeon adventure is Remains of the Empire for 4th level PCs. I think its in Dungeon 162 or there abouts.

    4E: Intro adventure/group suggestion

    I ran Heathen as my first D&D4e adventure and it was awesome. It is 5th level though.

    Orcus of Necromancer Games says "You were right, I was wrong"

    I agree that could be the issue. However, I thought that had all been changed in the last GSL iteration.

    Orcus of Necromancer Games says "You were right, I was wrong"

    Is that the case though? It isn't clear from Orcus' posts. The GSL is out and 3PP are finding that adventures (above all products) are possible and profitable to publish under it. Did Necormancer encounter an issue with the GSL or was it some other reason?

    Orcus of Necromancer Games says "You were right, I was wrong"

    Not really. I am interested in recent developments in 3PP with the GSL. OBE stopped for very specific reasons (rules material is difficult to do) and Adamant seems to have come to the conclusion that adventures are the most viable product under the GSL. As such, I am genuinely interested in why...

    Later core book printings

    Awesome. So has anyone confirmed errata in a later printing of a D&D book that they own?

    Orcus of Necromancer Games says "You were right, I was wrong"

    I would be interested to here what those lots of reasons were. Though 3PP rules material is proving difficult under the GSL, adventures are prime candidates.

    Later core book printings

    I admit I could be wrong. The statement was made a while back in relation to Star Wars Saga with an implication it was a company wide policy. If people could confirm that errata appears in later editions that would be cool. FWIW the decision not to would make sense from a business POV. WotC had...

    Later core book printings

    I am pretty sure that WotC's stance is that it no longer updates its book by printing. Instead, errata is added to the Updates, and significant errata is included in later books like Stealth in PHB2 and Skill Challenges in DMG2. As such, you may be waiting for a long time.

    How the hell do readied actions work!

    Its really not that complicated and IMO is written very clearly. Dracosuave and others have given accurate explanations, but to reiterate, its a reaction, so: Ready Action: To attack any enemy that moves adjacent to me. Trigger Action: An enemy moves adjacent to the PC. Reaction: The PC attacks...

    I would like to play all of them too. Specials mentions to Fighter, Wizard, Shaman and Warden.

    Demon Queens Enclave - Session Reports

    I am interested to hear how going to Urlvrain first is going to effect the state of play. In my PbP, the PCs went to Lareen first, then Orontor, both due to personal subplots created to give the scenario more connection. Lareen is a PC's mother :) and Orontor was changed to Oloraena, a drow...

    Seekers of the Ashen Crown

    No one is meant to work it out. The short cut is there to reduce the dungeon down on the return at the end of the adventure. However, to disallow the shortcut altogether would have been poor, so they provided just enough clues to make it feel like you could work it out, but not enough to...
