mshea and everyone else, I love all these suggestions (in fact, I've been thinking along those lines for some time as well, for a DM-less boardgame-like session). Foxman, you could do something like in DDM 2.0: you have AC and one single Defense score, but each attack targets DEF(Fort)...

I think the wizard powers could be worded like this: Daily: Flaming Sphere or Freezing Cloud, Fireball or Stinking Cloud Other than that, great formatting.

Oh, just one surge and effects become At will for the encounter? Hmmm... now all those Arcana checks make sense... :-S Well, I think your intentions will blur the line between power and ritual, so I guess the main problem now is the feat offers power-like abilities with a lot of the...

I don't even need to look at the picture, you already have my vote. ;) I just printed the Castle of Shadows and glued it onto heavy... (whatsit called? "papel parana" in english :-S), cut them out and they look beatiful! :)

I've been meaning to do something like this for a long time, my idea was to use these pregens into a demo game or in addition to the Starter set. But instead of 8 characters, I wanted to do 16: one for each build in the PHB. One build is human, the other is... not. Why? Human is the...

Looking at the example seed, at first I thought it was overpowered. Then I realised you have to spend a surge to activate any of the effects - so you need two healing surges to slide a target! I think most combat uses are too expensive to be usefull (like spending a surge to Aid Another), but...

I like them a lot! :D I thought about something like this before, but you've done all the work ;) I was watching Firefly yesterday and I was just thinking "they're all humans*, and they're so diverse". It's not that I don't like eladrin and tieflings, it's just I think there are too few humans...

You mean like the green head of the Hydra from that old arcade game King of the Dragons? It spits a green slime... (though it doesnt push)

Unfortunately, the handheld versions are nothing like the original PSX game. It's the same world but with different races (I suppose they also show on the newer consoles: baanga, viera, etc) and a bit of a "childish" storyline - children are the majority of Nintendo handhelds' target audience, I...

No, it's not! A 10th level monster could easily wipe a 1st level party, nevermind the XP values. Why? Higher level monsters have much higher defenses making them impossible to hit while at the same time hitting the party without much difficulty, no matter their defenses (and dealing a lot more...

I love these! Option 2 would make a fun old school style game, if you like that feel, but Option 3 would work well within any 4e adventure, IMO.

Funny you mentioned it, I was just thinking about a Power Attack like feat for spellcasters/implement users: (Em)Power Spell As a minor action, the next power with the implement keyword you use does additional 2 damage (3 at paragon, 4 at epic) but you grant combat advantage to enemies until...

I agree. I like a lot of the utilities but they might be too situational or serve roleplaying purposes that are overshadowed by the other combat related powers - you have to pick "the best" ones, right? :\

Do they improve the initial multiclass feat benefit, like Sneak Attack every round (and not once per encounter), or they just give you the other features of your multiclass (like rogue weapon talent, prime shot, etc)? Oh, and I second the request for info on animal companions! :)

NintendoDS: Finished The World Ends With You and Dragon Quest IV. Both have special post-end chapters that I intend to play... but I still have Final Fantasy Tactics Advance 2 on hold. And Castlevania Order of Ecclesia is out, so I think everything else is gonna have to wait.

I suspect the ranger uses a minor action to grant the companion a minor, move OR standard action. Judging by the excerpt, most powers for this build will give the impression that both ranger and beast are moving and attacking (i.e. taking their actions), with all the slides and shifts.

Hey Scott, thanks for dropping by. :) I understand the reasons for no chargen, and I agree with them: I was the one kid reading the books cover to cover and trying to get other kids to play. It's been that way forever, even with other games, not just dnd. The DM must be able to hold his group...

Consider yourself one level higher! Great work! :D

It's in portuguese (Brazil), but there's pictures: Futuros Rpgs do DS [Até o momento + de 70] - NDS Brasil Fórum It's an "upcoming DS RPG titles" thread on a brazilian forum (I just lurk there sometimes). It's a bit old, so some/most of them are already out, but it might prove usefull (even...

What about the artwork for the counters? are they just copy-pasted from the MM or something new? Can you take a picture of them? thanks :)
