We started a 4e game of Zeitgeist on Sunday. Three of the players had played in a Zeitgeist game I ran online up until about a year ago, which cut off in the middle of The Dying Skyseer. I enjoy reading the logs of others, so I thought it would be fun to share back. Our Heroes So Far: Cazara...

And Samsaran is such a convenient anagram of Srasaman... :)

On the bright side, once Character Builder dies, I won't have any reason to give WotC any more of my money.

if you can fit it on a 24"x36" poster, Vistaprint will print it for ten to fifteen dollars and ship it for about six, I think. Much cheaper than the "over $100" you were getting quoted.

A lot of that will come with player commitment to it. There was a rogue in my recent group who was a very casual gamer. Unfortunately, her boyfriend had "helped" build her character with a bunch of conditional combos and cool but tricky effects. After being frustrated by all the things she had...

I'm actually the DM. I did use a screen for that game but I'm thinking of not using for my upcoming game. I keep track of the whiteboard stuff. I used to write "Dazed (se)" or "Dazed (eoWt)" for conditions that were save ends or ended on a player's turn (in this case eoWt meaning "end of Wilik's...

Oh yeah, I forgot about that! We ended up getting some business-card magnetic backings from an office supply store for about $6, which each got a PCs name. The monsters still had to be erased and rewritten at times, but delays were much easier with PCs.

Get a whiteboard. Put it up on the wall where everyone can see (we put ours on the wall behind the DM, but off to the side so it's not right behind him). List the combatants in initiative order. Use a magnet to keep track of who's up. Track statuses and conditions on the whiteboard, along with...

I had such trouble coming up with miniatures that I ended up making tokens out of all the art from all the adventures.

So, I had a Zeitgeist game running online on Google Wave & co-meeting for almost a year, that eventually died out. I'm looking to relaunch the game with a live group (a few of whom played in the previous game, which ended toward the end of adventure two). Here's the thing: I want to involve...

The map I ordered through Vistaprint. A 24x36 print of whatever image you send them on matte stock runs $9.99 plus shipping. They seem to keep their prices low by bombarding you with ads, though. :/ The NPC cards are actually 4x6 "photos" through Shutterfly. Upload jpegs and pick up 4x6 glossy...

Made my own, along with a few other props: Kudos to the Zeitgeist art team. This stuff looks awesome on the table!

I'm prepping for a new Zeitgeist game starting this Summer and I wanted to have a large map of Flint for the players to use for planning or keeping track of where everyone's moving. I could swear I saw a poster map for sale a year or so ago, but I can't find it anywhere. Alternately, is there a...

I'm going to spend that money on stuff to run my next 4e game.

Zeitgeist!

I intend to use the In the News articles in my upcoming (relaunched) Zeitgeist game. However, the portrait problem seems to persist. I just bought both the "Zeitgeist: NPC Portraits" and the "NPC Portraits Collection" at rpgnow and got two copies of the same file. One was named...

I'll be there, though my work schedule for the weekend is always in flux, so I tend not to be able to commit to anything.

Hi all, I was wondering on your opinion on the Serpent-Maned Lion in the "Night on Bald Mountain" encounter and how that interacts with Temporary Hit Points. When it hits with its claw, the target cannot regain Hit Points until the end of its next turn. Should this include Temporary Hit...

Looking forward to Next coming out so they can close out the errata on 4E and re-release the core 4E books with all the errata. I'd love to have functioning books.
