    D&D General Why did you pick your campaign setting?

    I probably could've worded that better. I don't mean to imply that it's odd for people who are happy doing that. It just seems odd to me as someone who's used multiple campaign settings for different campaigns or adventures. D&D has a lot of variety to offer. I just can't imagine myself playing...

    D&D 4E What to do with 4th Edition

    This has got me thinking now... What if we could fold "daily powers" into "encounter powers" and just have "powers" you could power up by spending your surges? For example, you have a weapon attack power that normally does "2[W] and slides the target 1 square". But if you expend a heroic surge...

    D&D 4E What to do with 4th Edition

    I think @glass touched on this a bit, but it is an idea I am working with. First, let's rename it Heroic Surges (or Surges, for short). We're doing more than healing now, and "healing surges" is implying that it only does one specific thing. Its a wonder no one ever thought to do anything more...

    D&D General Why did you pick your campaign setting?

    Am I the only one that finds it odd that some people only play in one campaign setting all the time? :unsure:

    D&D 4E What to do with 4th Edition

    What if "starting a cohesive, vibrant community around 4e" isn't the right goal? If you're reading through this thread and following other discussions, sites, discord channels, etc, it's fairly obvious that everyone has a lot of different ideas about what a "clone" should (or should not) look...

    D&D 4E What to do with 4th Edition

    Who or what's not being included? Higher level play? Not everyone makes it to those levels. This became more apparent late in the 4e cycle when WotC started refocusing more on Heroic tier and never got around to more Epic stuff. Almost everyone begins with lower levels. That is how they learn...

    D&D 4E What to do with 4th Edition

    There's a hundred things that could be streamlined or simplified in 4e. There was a lot of needless redundancy, like individual powers for different classes (or different levels of a class) that had virtually the same effects. There were also a lot of extra mechanics and resources to do...

    What was the first music album you bought?

    After giving it some more thought, I may have been mistaken about what my first album was. It might have been this:

    D&D 5E (2014) Monster Manuals - Too Many, Not Enough?

    One of the best monster books of any edition, Monster Vault: Threats of the Nentir Vale is as much a monster manual as it is a campaign supplement. Every monster has a specific place and motive within the 4th edition default setting. The book is full of details and plot ideas for anyone running...

    Speaking of Dragonlance... (There's just too much untouched Gold Box goodness out there!!)

    Speaking of Spelljammer... (Played that, too. Let's face it, I was a D&D fanatic and a sucker for any computer games!)
