    How to use Graz'zt as BBEG

    Plain Sailing, great idea! My current heroic tier campaign is about a cult of Iyachtu Xvim (Son of Bane, he was killed when Bane reappeared in the Forgotten Realms, his cult prays to him as the God of Human Supremacy) using the Church of Bane to help them commiting a powerful ritual that will...

    How to use Graz'zt as BBEG

    Until recently, I did not really care about Graz'zt. After the release of his 4e stats I started reading some lore about him (The Dragon 360 article and BoVD stuff), and he started to grow on me. I like the (4e) idea of him being an ex-archdevil, as i think he would have some of the devils of...

    One major thing I sure miss...

    Same here. I, too, am rather disappointed. I was so looking forward to the stuff Necro had planned and I was really hoping they would come back with old strenght... oh well, maybe it will happen once the GSL is changed.

    How about an "Adventure" prefix in the 4e Fan Creations forum?

    Titel says it. I think an "Adventure" prefix would be nice for threats about creating and converting adventures.

    What are your plans for the paragon tier?

    My heroic tier campaign is up and running well. I planned it to finish with the PCs hitting 11th level, and it looks like we might get there by the end of the year. I offered my players to change characters after that point is reached, some of them will take that opportunity, others will not...

    [Help] Upcoming 12 hours session and low on ideas

    wow, great ideas. This will help me a lot :) I like the "Orc on Grell" Idea a lot... and thanks for reminding me to insert cool terrain to the arena... maybe I will add a battle on boats, that would be quite cool, I think :)

    [Help] Upcoming 12 hours session and low on ideas

    Our group finaly managed to find the time for a long, all day weekend session... and I am somewhat low on ideas... The group consists of 5 characters close to 5th level. here is what I have planned: They just killed a dragon. The session will begin with celebrations due to the parties victory...

    Escaping from a Drow prison

    I had a very similar situation once (Players were held prisoner in a Drow outpost). I would let them come up with ome ideas. Try the "Say yes" policy. Make their ideas work, or they feel they have no chance, anyway. I used Bugbears instead of Drow as prison guards. Fooling drow easily can kind...

    Recharging Encounter Powers

    The problem is, only players who have allready spend an encounter power would benefit. Thus, it does not fulfill design goal 5. (No drawback for careful players)

    speeding up combat by halfing hit points

    I would rather use a recharge system like Stalker0s (Posted in the houserules forum). Making all encounter/daily powers reliable will just add headaches once more of them are available. And as you progress in level, it become less and less of a problem. Missing with your single cool power...

    Did the blogs section change ENWorld boards?

    You could add either a "Blogs" tag to generel or add a blogs forum, where blogger who think their articles might be of interest to all of the community can post a link to a specific article. I think, if possible, the forums should host the discussion about the blogs, but the blog space could...

    Treatise on adding power recharge mechanics to 4e

    As Irda Ranger suggested in the other threat I, too, would remove the "you can only recharge once you are out of encounter powers" clause. That's imo necessary to fullfill number 8 of your design goals. Otherwise, I think it is a great system. You could of course, just use action point, but I...

    Did the blogs section change ENWorld boards?

    You know, I love the EnWiki. I think thats where houserules, new monsters, campaign storylines and gaming tipps, etc. should go, after having been discussed in the forums. It could be the "Product" of the ENWorld Community. Blog posts about stuff like "10 reasons why 4e is not WoW" can as well...

    Alternate Hydra

    I love the concept of making the hydra a multi-monster beast. Brilliant! I do not think using minions is a good idea, though. The heads need to be somewhat tougher. (I would give them something similar to Zombie Weakness though. A crit should cut of a head, no matter how many hps it has left.)

    Did the blogs section change ENWorld boards?

    Using the front page to promote blogs is a good start. That was the reason why I was looking at them today :) I guess, you need to find a way to promote the blogs as part of this community. Like the old reviews section. That was not overlooked, think.

    Did the blogs section change ENWorld boards?

    I love reading the enworld boards (being more of a lurker myself), and always did. I rarely look at the blogs section though. Today, I did. What I found there, were a lot of the entries I was missing on the boards since the release of ENWorld2. I thought the launch of 4e was the reason for...

    Exactly. I would not expect the PHB2 to be 'crunch" only. If we like it or not :)

    Keeping track of bloodied, marked, etc...

    During our session yesterday, a player in my group started using her rings as markers, because the chips we usually use were not at hand. It worked brilliant. I guess it is somewhat like the pipe cleaners. If I could just get a bunch of colored platic rings somewhere, it would be perfekt...
