    I Want More Nentir Vale!

    The Dragondown Coast is part of the same world as the Nentir Vale. Back when they first announced the now likely cancelled Nentir Vale Gazetteer there was a note in a WotC podcast I think that said the Dragondown Coast was the next area to be detailed after the Nentir Vale.

    Misfortune Cards: A DM Advantage Product

    These are some good card ideas! I use something similar in my own game, but are more equal opportunity mayhem. Purple Plot Twist Cards

    Purple Index Cards: On-the-Fly Setting and Plot Collaboration

    I too, am of the opinion that most of the introduce skill challenge cards tend to make things anticlimactic. I probably should remove those from my own deck as well. As for the DM vetoes on a few of the cards, I tend to keep those in just because of group dynamics. I'm fine with my players...

    VT/CB/AT integration coming soon to beta testers

    This is very good news for me, as I am part of the VTT beta, but not getting much use out of it yet. I wanted to use it to play with my far away friends, but it only allowed people inside the beta. I thought about using it for mapping, but the tileset available was too limiting. It should at...

    WotC Discontinues Minis: How Much Does It Affect You?

    This won't affect me too much, as I already have a large collection of the D&D prepainted minis, so this does not affect me too badly. I won't be able to get great representations of some monsters, and to acquire more I'll either be paying more money on the secondary markets or buying more metal...

    Purple Index Cards: On-the-Fly Setting and Plot Collaboration

    My group is still using these cards every session, and everyone loves them. I'm up to 158 cards with effects culled from many similar projects and a few original ones from me. We've since institute a new rule for card refresh, we play with a setlist of songs on in the background, and each PC...

    Fortune Cards Threads [Merged]

    I also am a big proponent of SabreCat's thread for plot twist cards. I've got around 160 cards in my own deck for my gaming group, with effects culled from a number of similar products and threads. But, I don't think I'll be using the Fortune Cards in my home campaigns, what we've seen so far...

    List of Broken Powers

    This almost exactly, or a wizard with beguiling strands. Players kept pushing into it, and the Encounters monsters aren't that tough in the latest season, at least until this chapter.

    List of Broken Powers

    Okay, what about Fountain of Flame (Wizard Daily 1), 3d8 damage and creates a damaging zone that lasts until the end of the encounter. Now, I can deal with the damage and zone, but its ENEMIES ONLY damage! I run Encounters at my local FLGS, and anytime a Wizard busts out this daily the...

    Superior Implements, ammunition missing from the New CB

    The Superior Implements are there. When you are in Marketplace in the Weapons section, click on the Category drop down menu, and Superior Implements should appear above the Implement category. If they do not appear make sure you are in the Custom Character creation section, and not in the create...

    Character Builder has been Updated!

    Made a Scout last night, but there's no way to get the off-hand weapon to display in the Dual Weapon Attack power. It always displays the primary weapon as the off-hand weapon, so unless your primary weapon is exactly the same weapon and enchantment as the off-hand its going to be wrong.

    D&D 4E 4E Essentials Modern

    That's essentially what I was thinking so far, just didn't know how well that would work.

    D&D 4E 4E Essentials Modern

    I was having very similar thoughts earlier this week, but with Star Wars in mind rather than D20 Modern. 10 levels of play might be too few, but I definitely think 30 is too much for Star Wars. My thoughts were along how would I make 4e style classes or builds out of the ones from Star Wars...

    Dungeon 185 - Bark at the Moon: Dungeons biggest adventure

    Just another point to add to the discussion: The first part of the adventure has less "new maps" than you think! The map with two cabins/farmhouses is actually a portion of the double sided poster map from The Slaying Stone adventure. Having said that, I prefer the use of the dungeon tiles for...

    Current state of the online Character Builder

    Check out this new thread from Chzbro. http://www.enworld.org/forum/4e-discussion/297756-temporary-fixes-character-builder-online.html Apparently the feature is already there in the builder, there just isn't a place to turn it on yet. So a work-around has been discovered. Create a blank...

    Casting Spells with Scrolls

    If you want to recreate the feel of a scroll casting spellcaster from previous editions, I'd look at the Power Jewel level 5 magic item. It lets you regain the use of an encounter power. So to create scrolls of spells, I'd have them cost at least as much as a consumable or potion of the same...

    The Dungeons & Dragons Virtual Table

    I wasn't too thrilled about this announcement, since I doubt that the pricing structure or terms of use will allow me to use it with my distant friends without DDI accounts. However, I just got an invite to the 'friends and family' Beta, so I'm hoping this will allow me to test it out with...

    Online Character Builder is LIVE!

    I wish there was a way to see the math, like we could with the old character sheet, for at least the defenses. It took me a few minutes to figure out why my Knight's AC jumped up a point, until I realized it had automatically given the bonus for masterwork plate to AC. I couldn't find masterwork...

    D&D "Flavors..."

    One way 4e could be made more 'old school' through rules variation would be to adopt some of the changes that Gamma World introduced. For instance, in Gamma World your abilities scores are determined by your origin (or your class, effectively). GW characters gain a 18 in the ability score...

    New CB Power Card Pics!

    If those are the format of the new power cards for the Online Character Builder, I'll be happy with that format. The symbols and patterns in the power name section will be really useful, especially for people like me who print them out in black and white. Now I can tell the difference between...
