It's nice to see that my statcards template are working :) I suppose the best way to fit long text is to avoid using pictures and trimming stuff: removing some text, abreviating some keywords (sometimes even removing them won't hurt the statblock), etc. Take a look at the original DDM rpg...

Ok, done! :D For now, it's only the statcards template. I've removed a lot of the stuff I meant to add to the style/game files but never finished. It's supposed to work. :) There are two styles, one is standard card size (9 per page), the other is BIG (4 cards per A4 page - just remember to...

Yes it does: the one line fields can shrink and the combat text field scales down to a 6 size font. I dit fit a Goblin Hexer on a previous iteration of it ;) (hard to read, but not impossible) I'm not in my PC right now, and the template (though functional) needs a little lapidation, but I'm...

My god, sir! :O This is even better than what I was doing (one npc per build, levels 2, 6 and 10 - wich is when you have an "all new" power selection). For once, I'm grateful I'm so very slow! Well done!

Hey, what do you think of these? EDIT: sorry, I hit "post" before attaching the .jpg :blush: I edited what I believe to be knight_otu's template, wich borrowed from the DDM RPG stat cards. I've been working on it reaaaal slow, but it works for both monsters and PCs (I have a BIG style, wich...

"Oh look Mr Vampire! Look how beautiful I am! You see how soft my skin is? Yes, Mr Ooze, I do smell this good." Stuff like that ;) Also, most zone powers say that creatures that start their turn or enter the zone are affected, so you can lure enemies into a damaging area... though the rules...

Some suggestions I've seen: * instead of teleport, shift 5 squares, ignore difficult terrain during this move * cast one cantrip per encounter (might not work for eladrin wizards) * reroll History or Arcana skill check (or maybe a lot more skills - as an ancient race eladrins could be the...

I think you're looking for the NPC Magic Item threshold in the DMG (next to last chapter, in the NPC creation guides). Also, I think that some characters could benefit from choosing a couple of extra powers and/or properties from magic items as a bonus: they would be like extra feats or class...

Actually, this IS great for travelling! Camping in the woods, mountains, mosquito infested jungles or even muddy and wet swamps is NOT the same as resting among the fine satin sheets and feathered pillows of the duke's guest rooms! I had thought about outdoor resting never replenishing all...

I suppose the Swordmage gets that feat and the rogue doesnt because the first is a defender and part of his job is dishing damage through opportunity attacks (i.e. basic melee) when enemies move, while the second is a more-or-less squishy striker whose job is to move around dishing damage on his...

Nice idea. Remind me of a Sanctum, from Mage: the Ascension. I think you should also require a monetary cost to mantain the place (cleaning up, stocking materials, etc) and/or a healing surge cost for a year and a day (see the create teleportation circle ritual) to keep the magic going.

Love the show, but sadly never saw those books. :( But now that there is a season 8 in comic book form, with thousands of slayers all over the world (and a lot more combat magic than we used to see on the show, btw), wouldn't be too far out to expect for an 'upgrade'... ;)

Nice to hear how things went. The real question is: did they have a good time? :) It did look like averaging damage was a better way to go, but playtesting is so very important. I didn't care enough to think about your "healing the dead" rules. There are so many things that go unoticed or...

Your parents should love combat encounters for this to work: there's no exploration, no skill uses, no roleplaying - it's a game of war! If they don't know anything about rpg, make sure to tell them this is only a portion of it. I should know! I could never introduce my lover to d&d with this ;)...

So I was preaching to the choir it seems! LOL :lol: I suppose shared resources only work 100% when you're playing multiple characters (like in DDM skirmishes). Aside from that case, it would have to be an agreement between players to use this rule. Is that meant to replace AC, the defenses, or...
