Why is that? What about it isn't for you? PS

Eberron by a country mile. There are so many fantastic campaigns you can do, each of which makes perfect sense. Dragonmarked houses - with most houses able to support a campaign by themselves Nations - you can easily make a nationalistic campaign Noir/crime - you can make so many noir...

Meh. We got the wizard to high levels in every single campaign. In fact, frequently our campaign goals were "keep the wizard alive until 5th level, then rule the world . . . " Sure characters died in droves, but you could literally make another 1st level character on other peoples' turns in a...

But I'm a sacred cow! PS

Grrrr. Despite knowing I have no time to game in October . . . dang it! PS

On a less irreverent note, while I don't like Planescape and despise the Great Wheel, I see no need to excise either of them. I've been ignoring them for 30+ years, I can keep on. :D PS

My initials? ;) PS

I've taken to handing out the Easy/Medium/Hard DCs and letting the players decide which they are trying to hit. Have you thought about asking your players a) what DC they want to try for and b) what they get out of hitting it? Something like "I'm trying to fast talk the guards. I'll try the...

The $100 level currently gives you 140 figures. That will grow as stretch goals are met. It's another pretty ridiculously fantastic deal. PS

I have bailed on XP. I'm trying (with various levels of success) to devolve game responsibility to my players. One of the things I've handed over is leveling. My players tell me when they level up. Generally that's as soon as they get tired of their powers and want more. :D In another...

This definitely ranks as one of the weirder necromancies. . . PS

That's one way to go. Another way to look at is that by Epic tier everyone should have had an artifact at least once. IMC, the PCs had and lost both the Eye and Hand of Vecna, one of them is wearing a permanent uncontrolled Contact Other Plane effect, another has a dragonmark that is growing in...

The Hammer is a pretty reasonable weapon for a 20th level character to tote around. It's +5 enhancement, the damage (4d6) is about equivalent to 2 of the +1 enhancements like Flaming or Frost, the thunderclap on throwing has a terrible save DC, but a nice effect, so that's probably a +1...

You might want to allow full character rebuilds now that the players are more familiar with your game, and everyone is more familiar with the rules. In our first 4e game we did that at 3rd level. No one fundamentally changed their characters, but everyone shifted something a little bit. PS

Your guys are still pretty low level, and character resources are scarce, but have him look at Skill Powers and some of the skill monkey feats. Some let you use one skill for another (Arcana for Intimidate, frex), and others give you bonuses or rerolls. Also, let him hit hard DCs with that Heal...

At first I was "oh no! not DDI!" then I realized it was just the magazine articles I never read anyway. Whew! I can still use the tools. PS
