wow, some nice ideas. Thanks! I thought about this some more, what I am most concerned of is the PCs becoming to weak, eg the math not working out. As some of you pointed out, thats just three items per player to take care of. We, as a group, really like the concept of signature items. Our...

I love DMing 4e, but there is two things getting in my way because they tend to suck up time I would rather spend otherwise. XP, because they tend to force a certain speed of advancement. No problem not using them, though. And treasure. Getting 4 useful items to my players each level feels...

hmm, the Paragon Tier published Modules are great. Better than any other 4e modules, imho. I used both SoW and the H1-3 modules as resource in my campaign, but I run neither of them as a campaign. You can find great resources for the H1-3 Modules on the wotc boards, though. (Using H1 and H2 +...

Just tried to get some data on the subject: out of 2000 RPG players registered for NRW at Spielerzentrale (biggest german county, total database search is not possible) 45% are willing to play DSA, 40% are willing to play D&D or Shadowrun. The WoD Systems are not easy to compare, because of the...

No. At least not in Germany. I'm pretty sure of that :)

Hmm, I still remember using the bullywugs, giant frogs, tigers and all kinds of Derro. The Derro Raver are very powerful, btw. But were a fun fight.

Just to give you some feedback... I love your conversions, have used a huge number of them during my ongoing campaign (I guess about 10 different ones) and am looking forward to the Frost Giants since I found these threads... which was around level 5 or 6 or something... but don't feel rushed :D

hmm, concerning the art books vs. actuall books... yeah, I kind of feel the same... but, I love the background comming through Dragon Magazine (Playing X, Demonomicon, Codex of Betrayal...) and I still have the art books... that makes the 4e feel more complete to me, than it actually is, I guess...

Our campaign is know 20 sessions long, and I started reducing Enemy HP after the 4th or 5th session. I reduce the HP by (Level+1)*2... exactly what you propose... it works great.

I like the system and our campaign runs better than any 3e campaign before, but... It needs... 1) More races, classes and monster. I guess after the second wave of core books, the game will feel complete. 2) Revised monster hp (is reduce every monsters hp by 25% to get the combat lenght I...

So far, our campaign went from level 1 to 7, and combat got faster with every level. I guess it is a combination of better team play and more daily and ecnounter powers.

I try to avoid "Kill 5 orcs, take their stuff" encounters... most encounters in our campaign are meaningful... still, more than 45min and I get the impression they are to long...

There are allready to well fitting "plug ins"... Dark Heart of Mithrendain and Claws of Tyranny. (I will try to use both of them) They add some nice RP opportunities, too.

As that is basicaly the way I do dungeons, thanks for pointing me to those adventures. I might use the Level 11 one (scaled down a bit) for a delve into my campaigns big dungeon.

Sounds good! I hope to combine this adventure with Dark Heart over Mithrendain (Dungeon #157) and maybe Claws of Tyranny (Dragon #366) ... the first one seems to be an easy fit as a prelude. The second one seems harder to pull of.

I like that idea. I think I will use it in the paragon part of my campaign :) ... some kind of item of resurection, maybe even usable for the whole group...

In my campaign: Heroic: The characters start unknown and end well known in a small area. A village and a town they adventured in mostly. Paragon: The characters are known in their home country and neighboring regions. They end up being nobles, high ranking members of guilds etc. Epic: The...

I gave Graz'zt a couple of more thoughts... this is what I got... :) Graz'zt can easily be behind everything, but I think most players would just feel cheated. I think it is important not to have him *plop* out of nowhere near the end of the campaign, like Adimarchus in "The Shackled City". Or...

Hmm, maybe it would be good to find a couple of monsters to properly theme Graz'zt. To me, Demogorgon is all about fiendish apes and Orcus is rather uninteresting without his undead. These monsters could be used during the whole campaign and the players will start to connect their actions to...

Yes. I like it a lot. And the 4e Graz'zt is medium sizi, should be a perfect fit. Yes, but that does not really make the players 'hate' him. What I miss is themes to explore to tie adventures to him (like Orcus - Undead, Demogorgon - Savage Beasts)
