    D&D 4E Is there a monster repository like iplay4e.com

    Ok, I love me some iplay4e.com. Great resource for extra characters when I don't have the time, a place I store my groups characters so I can review them, keep extra copies yada yada yada. But is there a place where people can upload/download monsters for the monster builder? Thanks!

    Feywild and the Forgotten Realms Cosmos

    Quick question concerning the Feywild. Since it is listed as a parallel world to the prime material, and in this case Abeir-Toril, do the Dieties of the Realms have influence here? Are they worshiped? I have a story involving Shar and Selune with my party in the middle. They have currently...

    When Do You Actually Roll Initiative & Clumping?

    I avoid clumping if possible. I usually write up encounter cards for the different groups. so I can lay them out in front of me and keep track of their abilities/when they go in combat. If you feel a monster has a high initiative bonus, adjust to what you want. Unless you roll your initiatives...

    Looking for a Playing Card Based RPG

    Castle Falkenstein. Completely card based game play, and even has a West supplement. It's fantasy with steampunk overtones. But can easily be adpated to just a western.

    Need help: Stealth/skill check in combat

    Ok. You're right. My interpretation of stealth was a bit different. Thanks for that. The think that bothers me, is the "at the end of a move action". In our game, the player had already moved in the previous round to gain cover. I made perception checks for all the bad guys who were in his...

    Need help: Stealth/skill check in combat

    I'm having a senior moment this morning, I had a player try to basically hide in plain sight(or rather behind a large cauldron) in combat. For the life of me, I cannot remember if it is a move action to use a skill or a standard or what have you. I looked it up and didn't see it. Now this...

    Monster question: Fire Beetle Fire Spray incur OA?

    Thanks. And no. She's never unleashed when someone has been right on top of her. They've all been at least a square a way.

    Monster question: Fire Beetle Fire Spray incur OA?

    This came up last night. In the 3 levels of gaming we've done(roughly 10 sessions) this hasn't come up. I ruled that it would draw an opportunity attack because it is an area attack. The dragonborn fighter was taking on a fire beetle. On the beetle's turn, it did it's close blast Fire Spray...

    Confused about Commanding a Beast Companion

    and Defend: Defend (Standard Action): Your beast com-panion or both of you go on total defense. If you are adjacent to each other, the bonus to defenses is +3 rather than +2. So since this is a standard action, and say you want to go on defense with your companion, you'll have to do something...

    Confused about Commanding a Beast Companion

    LOL no, I think I confused enough not to explain it correctly. Commanding a Beast Companion has a command for Move. See below: Move (Move Action): Your beast companion or both of you take a move action. The move actions need not be the same. Ok. Can the player issue the command as part of his...

    Confused about Commanding a Beast Companion

    So I run a 4e game every other week. I let one of my players create a beast master with raptor. According to his interpretation he and the bird can move at the same time, if he chooses. Ok. Taking this logic, then he could then have either or be on Defend. Correct? But if this is not the...

    Dungeon Delve question

    If this is the wrong place for this, please move. That being said. I like the book, and am going to use Delve 3 Orc Stronghold this week. But I'm confused about the "hilltop keep". It's referred to as a keep and as a "lord's" home. Which is it? If it's a keep, then I can see it as is fine...

    Dominate?

    Help. I can't seem to find exactly what the effects of dominate are? Looking in the MM, I find that the description in the Aboleth write up doesn't explain it. Either that, or I've overlooked it. Can someone point me in the right direction, please? Thanks.

    Need help with a possible skill challenge

    Great suggestions. I tried them in the game tonight. sigh... I had mixed reactions. My group is still focused on the immediate style of a skill check instead of challenges. One even called it artificial compared to regular play. I must admit, I'm still not sure how to run these things. I've...

    Need help with a possible skill challenge

    Hey all, I have an upcoming game where the PC's have followed the tracks of a band of goblin raiders back to their lair. This "lair" has been mentioned/referred to for some time in found notes and letters. It's a variant on the Barrow of the Ogre King from the FRCS. Basically, they've...
