    Looking for an unmarked map of the Flanaess

    I gave it a shot, thanks for the heads-up! Question though... is there any way to save the CC file to larger than an 800x600 jpeg? I can't seem to find anything in the preferences that allows you to adjust this and at that resolution it's too small to use.

    Which WotC settings in 4th Edition?

    Awesome!! While I fully expected to see this, it is nice to have that confirmed... :cool:

    Looking for an unmarked map of the Flanaess

    Yeah, unfortunately I don't have CC (and a bit too pricey to get just for this...). :( Wow... these look fantastic . :) Unfortunately, as you point out, there's only a few regional maps and what I need is a whole map of the Flanaess. I would even happily stitch these together in photoshop if...

    Looking for an unmarked map of the Flanaess

    These are good resources Grodog, but what I'm looking for is an unmarked map of the Flanaess (no placenames, borders, etc.).

    Help me Poison my Party

    Another option might be to take a page out of the 1e Anti-Paladin's handbook - the 3-Stage Poison. Three different elements, which on their own are harmless (so the assassin could eat the same food as the target), but when subjected to all 3 combine to poison the target. One element could be...

    High Level DnD PbP: Can it be done?

    I'm just going to ramble off some of the tricks I've learned along the way... 1. Run fewer, but more impressive battles. Take the time to make each combat encounter a memorable one. Find ways for the combatants to take advantage of/interact with the battlefield. What you don't want to do is...

    Looking for an unmarked map of the Flanaess

    I'm working on a 4e Greyhawk campaign and I need to find a map of the Flanaess (ideally a topographical map) which is otherwise unmarked - that is, no place names, borders, etc.. The bigger the better. I'm moving the timeline forward so naturally some things, including some of the landscape...

    Which WotC settings in 4th Edition?

    You must be mistaken, I know nothing of this... "Lloth" you speak of. If some backwater world can't even be bothered to spell the Demon Queen's name properly, then well... :cool:

    Which WotC settings in 4th Edition?

    I'd also love to see Greyhawk updated for 4e. They just need to revamp the setting in order to better leverage it strengths. I've mentioned this before... GH has the most impressive array of uber-villains of any setting, those on the perifery just need be brought in, given their own territory...

    Dark Sun, 4th Edition

    While I wouldn't mind seeing a HC campaign setting somewhere down the line, it's not on my Top 3 wish list. It's a bit of a one-trick pony setting IMO, though it does it's trick quite well. Somewhere 4 or 5 years down the line sounds good to me.

    Nostalgia Campaigns

    The only game I'd run from your choices would be an Iron Heroes game. I wouldn't run 3e/3.5e for nostalgia's sake, but I have in the past run Basic D&D games and can see myself doing that again. But 1e, 2e or 3e? - No.

    D&D 4E 4E at the Printers!

    Excellent news indeed. :)

    Pathfinder 1E PPP (Post Pathfinder Poll)

    I question the wisdom of going the route of creating a whole new rulebook that only modestly improves the existing game, rather than just sticking with 3.5e. That way you're not potentially fracturing an already small market (3rd edition holdouts). And one wonders how long will the new book be...

    Raise Dead: A nice big bone to the simulationists

    If you're going to keep Raise Dead, et. al. in the game, this is a very good way to handle it. Me happy. We have heard though that you have to be at least Paragon-level in order to be raised (it sounds like Heroic tier characters who die, are done for good), and even though it is available...

    Armor & Coins - please, No.

    What's ridiculous about it? Personally I like the meatier, 1.6 oz coins which is why I'm going back to the old standard for my 4e Greyhawk game...

    D&D 4E Looks like 4e's combat is closer, and I LIKE it!!

    I remember discussing this a few years back, so here's a few things to keep in mind when talking about bowshots... Let's take your medieval longbow and a typical "war arrow". An arrow shot for 2 second's distance loses roughly 40% of it's initial speed and 60% of it's energy by the time it...

    Lava Rules..

    Yeah, and I expect that you could have any number of lava-based attacks (hurled, possibly spell-based, etc.), it'll just be full-on immersion that would kill you outright...

    Wizard Spells 10-16 Two Page Spread

    No, that's incorrect, you don't gain 1/2 your level towards damage. If you did, you'd see it factored into things like the damage high level monsters inflicted and you don't.

    Minor Tidbit -- Me likey no Spikey!

    I've been lucky enough to win 3 character creation contests over the years, but the WAR comission is my greatest score. :) Grenloke is fighting Hela, the Eryvael. Yeah, that Hela. The background leading up to this battle is rather plot heavy, so bear with me for a bit... When Hela fell in...
