    Combined Magic Items - cost?

    An alternative: The cost of the "combined" item equals the cost of each item summed as if they were each one level higher than they actually are. Example: Level 1 item (360 gp) and Level 3 item (680 gp) costs the same as a level 2 item (520 gp) and a level 4 item (840 gp). This appears to be...

    How do you roleplay your character?

    Mark me down as "choose more than one option" AND "different options apply depending on the game/group". In my current game I'm doing a fair blend of "be the character" and "character is story element" but I've played plenty of games towards the gamist end of the scale and enjoyed that just as...

    Strategies for Missing Players?

    Our group has 4 players + DM. We don't play if someone misses a game. However, we also have a strong group that has played consistently together for years. We plan our games for the same day/time almost every week and are prepared ahead of time when we play an alternative day/time or miss a...

    Nice premade fantasy tokens?

    D&D Monster Vault has 10 pages of cardstock/cardboard(?) tokens that are pretty good including "resizers" for some critters to make M creatures L and L creatures H. Find for about $20 at most online shops. Even without the 4e monster book (included) it might be worth it.

    Houston (Atascocita) - Group needs tank for BBEG!

    I play D&D with a great group of people. We've played together for years. We're short a body lately. Wanna play? Qualifications (in no particular order; these are all important): 1. Mature: We're all over 30. We sometimes act like we're over 30. We prefer to hang out with people that do the...

    Bored the :):):):) out of me. The blood puns were stupid and the "Macy's Parade" references were predictable. Rich, get back to either advancing your story or telling good D&D humor.

    Pay to Play at FLGS?

    Swords and Superheroes in Kingwood (Houston), TX, is the one that expects you to spend $5.00 after you've been there for 1/2 hour or more. I've never been in the place, so I don't know how strictly they enforce this policy. Supposedly this is particularly enforced for D&D Encounters on...

    Pay to Play at FLGS?

    I heard this weekend about two game stores in my area that have a "pay to play policy" for their game areas. One of the stores asks that you spend at least $5.00 if you are in the store for half an hour or more (whether playing or not) and particularly applies this to the D&D Encounters and...

    Mike Mearls Ruined Everything

    He's number 1 now. He's also number 7 for "ruined everything". Mike Mearls ruined Google.

    Real Astral Diamonds!

    Dude, c'mon. This isn't one Astral Diamond. It's a large cache of raw Astral Diamond material that can be cut into tens of thousands, or even millions, of Astral Diamonds. I'm in. Brent, Level 23 human warlord (tactical presence)

    would Essentials as a Kindle book be a good idea?

    Also, part of the "Essentials" is the bits that you use to play the game. Electronic versions of character/monster tokens aren't very useful.

    Hit Points... Up or Down?

    I never thought about it, but this is EXACTLY what I do; maybe even for the same reasons. I'm not going to think about it that hard. :) Hm . . . seems to be a lot of this going around.

    Are you in the RPG closet?

    I tell everyone I'm a gamer if it's reasonable for it to come up. I commonly discuss my vacation time as including my trip to GenCon. I work for a geographically dispersed company, and we often have online meetings of various sorts. Anytime I introduce myself if part of the intro includes...

    Shadows Over Camelot - Sunday morning

    Alright . . . I'm going to go to the picnic at 10:00 and bringing Arkham Horror. As long as weather is cooperative should be a good "all day" picnic game.
