    A suggestion re: subscription notification

    Just noticed my paid account had expired when I logged in and could not search. If possible if would be good to get some advanced warning via the registered email on when an account is about to expire. In my case things are tight financially right now so I am left without the means to renew my...

    Starlock: AC too low to be playable?

    IMC the Starpact 'lock has not had much trouble. She stays at range and makes sure to move 3 squares to get concealment. We have gone from level 1-7 so far without her death. Just my 2 play-tested copper

    With a subscription to DDi Character Builder, buying a PHB2 isn't necessary.

    For the record the character builder finally dragged me in after resistance on my part. I still miss my print magazines but I will also be buying a physical copy of the PHB II as are more than half my gaming group. We currently have 1/3 of the group with DDi. I also agree with the idea of...

    Spoiler, and question for Thunderspire labyrinth....

    Pretty much "protection" money from businesses and entry fees for traders coming in with a large amount of goods is how they are doing it in my current campaign.

    D&D 4E How long are your 4e combats taking, real time?

    I DM for a group of 5 players that have now reached 7th level. I would say our average combat time is 60-90 minutes unless I throw a cakewalk at them. Overall in most 4 hour sessions we get in 2-3 combats, a skill challenge and some RP if everyone is on their game.

    So a character falls in the Well of Demons.... (spoilers)

    Hmmm.. I had not thought about it being mundane. I had presumed that there was something magical in nature that kept the guardian restrained or that he was summoned when activated.

    So a character falls in the Well of Demons.... (spoilers)

    How is it a spoiler? I just mentioned the title of a place that would mean little to you unless you had read/run H2, which I did not mention in the title.

    Spoiler warning for H2 Thunderspire Labyrinth ..... .... ... .. . Last night I had a player fall into the pit that the guardian comes out of in the penultimate Well of Demons fight. What do you think should happen to her? I don't want her to just be gone and dead I want something...

    D&D 4E Wonko's 4E Auto Character Sheet + Custom Power Cards

    I do love Wonko's sheet for portability to other computers, most at work have excel but I am not going to install an app there. Also so far Wonko's seems to offer greater ability to put in custom work.

    D&D 4E Wonko's 4E Auto Character Sheet + Custom Power Cards

    True there is more there I have just not taken the plunge yet as I am still put out by the lack of paper magazines. I am sure I will get over it soon;) Especially if the reviews of the character builder keep coming back positive.

    D&D 4E Wonko's 4E Auto Character Sheet + Custom Power Cards

    Agreed I can't see paying $5-8 a month for a character builder. Save us Wonko you are our only hope :)

    How did you avoid spamming attacks in 3e combat?

    I remember that feeling when I hit 5th level in 3e and rolled poorly on a 5d6 fireball and all the targets made their reflex save. WoW things have sure changed ;)

    Why do you keep playing 4e?

    Let's see; More Fun! Easier to DM More exciting, faster, less repetitive combats, everyone gets to do cool things. Couldn't be happier. Here is hoping new players are not put of by the rancor displayed here often

    Changeover Poll

    Started a fresh 4e campaign to try the rules out and our group has loved it! We are now in the process of converting over a long running 3e campaign to 4e. 4e has even brought some players back to our group who had gotten burnt out on 3/3.5. Our group as a whole has always moved forward with...

    Wrath of the River King - Wolfgang Baur's Open Design

    Kind of kills the point of a review, I guess. I must not have been reading every forum close enough and missed the announcement.
