    Chicago Gameday XXII is March 21st: SIGN UP!

    To my esteemed 4e DM: I'll probably be rolling up another warlock pretty similar to the one I used last time, though I may switch pacts on you. I'll try to get you the character sheet as soon as I can--I'm in the middle of prepping for my own 4e game for Wednesday, so I'm a bit behind.

    d20 modern Failed...why? (or did it?)

    I own several of the books, but only really played once or twice. I'd like to give running it another shot sometime, simply because some of the setting possibilities are nifty, and the system is more or less familiar to anyone who's played D&D in the past ten years. Expanded from above: I...

    Great Finales

    My Wednesday group just recently wrapped up a campaign that I’ve been a part of since August or so, I believe. Playing 3.5e D&D with a DM (MarkCMG) who doesn’t pull any punches, we somehow avoided TPKs and advanced pretty quickly. It was fun getting a chance to play some really high level...

    Using elements of 4e to make "3.75e"

    I never had much of an issue with the 3e skill system, but I can see some merit to the 4e system. The question would be how to implement it without gimping classes like rogues that get quite a few abilities from the number of skill points that they get. Does anyone have any thoughts or...

    Using elements of 4e to make "3.75e"

    So this past EN Chicago gameday, I finally got a full-fledged introduction to fourth edition. I definitely enjoyed it, though I didn't feel the immediate "oh man, this is SO much better than last edition" that I got going from 2e to 3e. For the time being, I doubt my infrequently DMed game (a...

    Streets of Shadow = Sewers of Shadow

    I think it's a great set of tiles...but as you both note, it's very very poorly labeled! That said, sewer tiles are pretty useful for a city game--you never know when your players are going to decide to just hop into the sewers and go following some unintentional red-herring that they picked up...

    Chicago Gameday XXI was November 8th: Aftermath...

    Yeah, I don't think I actually signed in on the sheet, though i did grab the ever-important nametag....my bad! :) I'm bummed I missed what sounds like an epic...2 battles in your game buzz! Your warning about umber hulks is well noted. :)

    Chicago Gameday XXI was November 8th: Aftermath...

    Another great gameday--I'm just sorry I had to leave in the middle of it. Thanks to Vyv and all of my fellow players for giving me a very solid introduction to fourth edition. I'm a big fan of the warlock, even if I couldn't roll to save my life this morning. (Seriously, did I hit *anything*...

    Forked Thread: Chicago Gameday XXI - Return to the Slave Pits - PC planning thread

    Vyv, I picked up an excel sheet online that looks okay to my 4e n00b eyes, but I'm not sure. Regardlessly it's filled out. I still, however, have a question about the rules: I picked the ritual caster feat. How many rituals do I get? Also, I'm still playing around with my mundane equipment...

    Forked Thread: Chicago Gameday XXI - Return to the Slave Pits - PC planning thread

    I put up a preference in the main thread (on the first page no less :p): In any event, the character I've been working up piecemeal throughout the week is a half-elf deceptive warlock (so fey pact powers). I think we're missing one role, but personally, I'm most interested in sticking with...

    Chicago Gameday XXI was November 8th: Aftermath...

    An update to my iPhone quick-post that signed me up. I'll go ahead and make my own 4e character for Vyv's game--do you have a preferred method for making up ability scores? The default array, or point buy, or something else entirely? For the purposes of role-coverage, I was planning on making...

    Chicago Gameday XXI was November 8th: Aftermath...

    buzz, it'll be a day chock full of 4e for me: breakfast, the slavers event run by vyv, and your afternoon 4e event. Apologies for any typos: posting from a cell phone!

    Chicago Gameday XXI Planning Thread; our date is Nov 8th

    At this point, I'm leaning towards not running something this time around, just because it looks like there's a lot of cool stuff to play. If there's a ton of demand come time for the sign up thread, I'm willing to try to run some 4e D&D--perhaps another conversion of an old module.

    Chicago Gameday XXI Planning Thread; our date is Nov 8th

    I'm rather tempted to run something, but I'm not really sure what I want to run. Laziness and my desire to play some of the fantastic looking stuff already posted may have me sit back and play twice this time around. I'd run 4e but I need an adventure and Id also much prefer to play the game...

    Chicago Gameday XX was June 14th: AFTERMATH

    Welcome to the boards and more importantly, yes, he was. The sorcerer got pummeled by the group and then fumbled his sorcery check and killed himself with backlash from his own magic!

    Chicago Gameday XX Planning thread: June 14th is our date

    I'm terrible with titles and have been swamped with minor things like graduating and packing for a two week vacation to Europe, so I apologize for the lack of updates. ;) 6 players. No experience necessary. A willingness to be as cinematic and badass as possible is required.
