    [Adventure]: Murder at Midnight (DM: renau1g, Judge Ozy)

    @cabana - no it can't, I effed that up. Papol isn't grabbed.... too bad.... Effects that End a Grab: If you are affected by a condition that prevents you from taking opportunity actions (such as dazed, stunned, surprised, or unconscious), you immediately let go of a grabbed enemy. If you move...

    Post-by-Post games. How do they work?

    Yes, for sure. as the DL stuff is pretty tied to the setting, it might be best in the non-living worlds, else you'd have to hack the adventure to fit that setting. Combat is typically handled with either a mapping software (I use Maptools as it's free and reasonably easy to use), or via...

    Am I the only one who doesn't like the arbitrary "boss monster" tag?

    Naw, they just bought 3.5x cuz it was DnD obviously. Not because they liked it, just like 4e is a wild success with every player of every previous edition buying books left and right.......... 3e did a lot of things great and aligning all XP for classes into one progression table was one thing...

    Post-by-Post games. How do they work?

    Hi Grimmjow, There's essentially 2 types of PbP here. One is the regular PbP, where DM's post whatever game they're looking to run here and how many/what they're recruiting: Talking the Talk - EN World: Your Daily RPG Magazine Typically, it will be either 4e or Pathfinder, and 4-6 players...

    [Adventure]: Murder at Midnight (DM: renau1g, Judge Ozy)

    The half-elf appears to be wrestling with something in her mind as the honeyed words of duo roll over her. "Well, you're probably wondering who I deduced your employer and that is because I'm aware of the man you're hunting. You are seeking Vilk, is that not true? Well, you are definitely in...

    well it's around 12:30 there, so he's probably rolling out of bed now ;)

    [Adventure]: A Knight in d'Argent Manor (DM: renau1g, Judge: Luinnar)

    No he didn't, it had like 12 hp or something before the initial attack. You still have it, sorry that I missed the note, my background is set to white, so the font is a bit hard to read for me.

    Am I the only one who doesn't like the arbitrary "boss monster" tag?

    For the monstrous ones, I'd say it's pretty easy actually. Just as dwarves, humans, even gnomes and halflings can train in a "class", why couldn't a hobgoblin learn the same thing as fighters, they're probably more likely than a gnome. For goblins or kobolds, why not pick up some dirty fighting...

    I enjoyed the War in Tethyr book from teh Nobles series, because of the paladin in that book also. War in Tethyr - The Forgotten Realms Wiki - Books, races, classes, and more

    This Weekend @ The BoxOffice: 2012_Aug.27

    I had no idea Hit and Run was even coming out until I read the preview on Box Office Mojo. I saw a commercial for it on Saturday though.... Premium Rush looked pretty weak from the commercials, I really didn't get what it was about, another (IMO) poorly marketed movie. Ah well, Lawless comes...

    D&D 5E (2014) What 5e Dragon type are you most looking forward to?

    I love them, they had a pretty badass mechanic too, the countdown to unleashing the brutal attack that was associated with their disaster that added a sense of urgency to the fight.

    [Adventure]: A Knight in d'Argent Manor (DM: renau1g, Judge: Luinnar)

    I appreciate the honesty :), but I had forgotten to include cover in the attack against Lilli so it was a miss and you still have your shield

    Novas and Workdays, Big Fights and Little Fights

    I like the idea of the set-pieces and the smaller fights, but if 4e's martial powers only being usable 1/day destroys the game for some people because it is too hard to imagine, then this is even more difficult to see as non-gamist. As for the quoted comment, Johnny, what resources could you...

    Am I the only one who doesn't like the arbitrary "boss monster" tag?

    Or, I can save tons of time adding NPC levels to the goblin and have one statted out for me. One reason I gave up on 3.5e DM'ing was spending hours carefully crafting the NPC BBEG and getting one round killed. In 4e, I can search for an appropriate leveled Elite foe and tweak for all of 5...

    [Adventure]: A Knight in d'Argent Manor (DM: renau1g, Judge: Luinnar)

    FourMonos - the charge was a free action so you still have a standard (or AP) and as it doesn't fall on your turn, I believe there's no interference with your normal actions. But! As an immediate reaction to getting hit by the charge the drow disappears from view. Uses Eldritch Escape

    Am I the only one who doesn't like the arbitrary "boss monster" tag?

    The great thing is that with the fancy templates, you could make any monster a "boss" monster, it was super easy to make a regular orc into an elite orc and possibly into a solo creature (although I make it a point to never use a solo on its own, too boring). The minion thing.... yeah, it...

    [Adventure]: A Knight in d'Argent Manor (DM: renau1g, Judge: Luinnar)

    You didn't think it would be that easy did you? Between the eldritch blast from Artemis, the wind buffets of Nathantiel and the fiery might of Malakai, the elf collapses under the assault, his body curled into a fetal position in a completely useless attempt to protect himself from the infernal...
