    Fortune Cards Threads [Merged]

    Because it separates players into groups based on disposable income. The cards allow you to do more "cool things" based on the amount of real world money you spend on them. As a person with a small gaming budget, and who abandoned CCG in 2000, I have no interest or money to invest in a deck. So...

    discovering remaining HP's of a monster

    I tell players when a monster is bloodied (as required for lots of rules) and also frequently announce when a monster is "Clinging to life" sometimes with a graphic description of a nearly severed limb, disembowlment, etc. Clinging to life is notoriously vague, but it serves as an...

    Greatest or best ever?

    playing -- a MURP game where we were fighting undead goblins in a lair, I could hit the broadside of the barn. One of three PCs went down and two of us were left fighting back to back in a burning hallway- the dead PC had started with a magic sword which was good, but not incredible. His body...

    Climactic Sacrifice of PCs

    I did this at the end of a campaign, and it did fall flat. I felt like I was offering them a choice, but one weakness is I was offering the players a choice, not the characters. They had traveled back in time to when humanoids had appeared in the world. It had been a mystery because hordes...

    How do you deal with Battle Standards?

    My party uses the Inn sign from the inn they all owned before they became adventures. The inn burnt down in the second session, but the group is still known as the Angry Badgers. The symbol is a heraldic badger (like hufflepuff's symbol) but carrying a flagon of beer. Later when the group...

    Hybrid Paladin Warlock Suggestions

    hybrid challenge is terrible. - we had a paladin - multiclass warlock that did really well. His key features included a throwing sword, and the 3rd level enc warlock Teleport/burst. He actually played alot like a swordmage, marking and then teleporting away. The combo he built his character...

    Why did you stop subscribing to DDI?

    We are having alot of the same issues: When CB went online, I dropped off. lack of support for off-line character builder. Fix monster builder, I'm addicted to this even if it does lose triggers for immediate actions, recharge numbers and aura descriptions EVERY time I load a monster. It does...

    D&D 4E New to 4e and joining a Monsterous Campaign

    Keep in mind that in 4e, there are other options for healers: Warlords, Bards, & Artificers all work well for a person new to 4e. ardent (psions) druids, shaman and rune priests are a little harder to play well. If the party is mostly humanoid - Orcs, Gnolls, Bugbears are all good for...

    BAD Patch to monster builder

    do NOT update your monster builder sure many of the RPGA monsters were poorly designed critters from the MMI with new names, but others were actually useful. A "Patch" that does not fix known bugs and removes content? No thanks. I wish I had finished reading the thread here before...
