    Design & Development: Warlord Article UP!

    Good point. If there was a rule that say "the warlord had to see the target in action at least for 1 round before to use this power" which it isn't. THe warlord can enter in combat, win initiative, hit the moster before it even move and gain the bonus. "hey guys, this monster that I never...

    Design & Development: Warlord Article UP!

    this make me think. in Larry Niven discworld it was hypothesized that luck was actually a kind of psionic power, following from that 4e martial classes are not really martial, but psionic and have the power to alter fate to mkae come up some increduibly inprobable circustances, but not for more...

    DDXP characters - unexpected tactics?

    That was the source of many of the problems with 3e, at least if the legends are true :). Apparently at the times when they tested 3e they played characters as they expected the players to play them, the fighter as a frontline combattant, the cleric and druid as healers with some combat...

    Goblin Picador

    GURPS come pretty near, I think :) For the climb DC is trivial, the GM has just to adjudicate how hard he think the action is and pick the appropriate DC. For the attack, it looks like a touch attack, obviously the dragon can't dodge, maybe with a balance check to stand up, or -4 to hit from...

    Goblin Picador

    Good question. also if a goblin harpoon you there will be a rope that cross the battlefield, if there are thre more picadores there will be more ropes, and the pcs are moving and the goblins are moving, and the other monsters are moving. Think if there are columns into the room or obstacles...

    Jason Bulmahn Speaks about DDXP(His take on the system)

    How true, that is why I liked 2e spheres much more than 3e domains.

    Jason Bulmahn Speaks about DDXP(His take on the system)

    My impression is that it is not true anymore, or at least it is to a lesser degree than before. Classes seems to be much more alike than they was in 3e. there are stil some differences but are minor if compared to before. In 3e you could have a situation when without the right class you would be...

    Armor & Coins - please, No.

    this. I think that most of the fluff changes have in part to do with that, for example the old elves, halflings, etc are under the SRD, that is still and presumebly will be public,and everyone can use them. But the new elves, dwarves, etc will be under the new license and are WotC IP The same...

    Armor & Coins - please, No.

    Yeah, Einstein was great at dodging. Nobody could lay an hand on him into a fight (yeah, it could have been Hawking, but I have still some good taste)

    Armor & Coins - please, No.

    And now we know what you need for the raise dead ritual and similiar.

    Your choices are Kill, or ... Kill

    Just hit them harder than you can, then, after they go down, check on them, if they are important to the plot they will be still alive, if they are not, screw them. After all, they are just NPCs, for gawd's sake. ;)

    Move a monster into another

    OK, but a little disappointing. Another nail to the 4e verosimilitude coffin, I suppose. Thanks for the answer, anyway

    Move a monster into another

    No effect in the sense that it don't happen (i.e they don't move/stop moving)? Maybe it better with an example. Let's say a rogue use postioning strike on a monster and slide it back 4 squares, but in the square where it should stop there is already someone. What happen? the monster stop in...

    HUGE SCOOP! Chris Perkins confirms my suspicions on unlimited Rituals

    I'm sure that is just one or two feats away. Well, incantations were ny favorite part of D20 modern, so I'm glad to hear this.

    Move a monster into another

    I'm just curious to know the official rule. There are too many powers that move creatures around to there be not one.

    Move a monster into another

    For those that partecipated at DDXP, with all the powers even 1st level characters (and mosters) have that move a monster around, it ever happened that a PC, or monster, moved another into an already occupied square? What is the official rule for what happen in that situation? It can't happen...
