Mark of passage does not let one slide an opponent more, it only let's one shift more. So the opponent is only sliding one square. But Mark of Passage is still a great feat to use with that power or with Footwork Lure.

Good point indeed. This is about the only way to play an assault swordmage. Opponents that don't move to attack you will end up getting taken out of the fight early because you can usually teleport into a flanking position and hit them for more damage. It makes assault swordmages into a sort of...

I don't like the magic item that mimics the class ability of the assault bond swordmage. It seems a little bit like giving away the special flavour of a class. However, I might get over it.

Until this moment, I had never thought of the possibility of PHB17. My bookshelf is so screwed.

I have found that much of the bread-and-butter of getting rid of opponents in 4E relies on push effects (less on pull and slides are always better, but harder to get). A good DM puts in lots of terrain features to make use of, so pushes help. Additionally, my warder has used pushes to drive...

That's not an answer. Indeed, it doesn't even seem to make much sense.

Form of the Winter's Herald is awesome. It really limits the ability of opponents to get to the other PCs, especially if the warden gets out in front of the other PCs. For your 3rd level, I recommend Earthgrasp Strike (assuming you're playing an Earthstrength warden). So far, no opponent my...

The damage should not stack, but the effects could.

If one is not going to implement the thematic and story elements of the game into the mechanics, then why have different mechanics? This kind of thinking drives people to Champions and the Hero System, which is not necessarily a bad thing.

Still a fluffy bunny.

5 Assassins for the win. Or the loss. They can only do big damage after a couple of rounds and they have crappy HPs. They wouldn't last long enough to do their big damage.

No, the optimal number is one (no matter how many times its remade) or one.

Check out book 1, page 14. All the rules of the seeds are there.

Speaking of which... can I remake Wil as a Seeker? ;) I should note that in my game, I allow a greater amount of retooling than suggested, but usually coordinated around the release of new products. Sometimes, if I think a PC isn't as effective as they could be, I'll throw a magic item their...

Indeed. In a D&D translation of Tolkein, one could quite plausibly have the Dunedain as a population of half-elves like those in Eberron.

Funny, I was looking through an old White Dwarf magazine the other day and an article in it had a write-up on the deities of the lava children.

Perhaps you are thinking of The Goblin's Lair adventure pack. It was, I believe a boxed set with an introductory material. That had way more than three rooms, though.

They say dialogue from other players?

I found that, given the maps the PCs were working with, that there was a tonne of pushing and sliding of monsters, especially into pits. One duergar guard made her saves five or six rounds in a row to avoid going down one pit! And this was from players who had, with one exception, never played...

Go to the library and look for books about the spy movie genre. There should be a book of standard plat structure and cliches that you can use. tvtropes.org is a good place to start. Look at the various plots and copy one. Start here: Espionage Tropes - Television Tropes & Idioms
