    "It's a joke name, sir."

    IMC we have a fire-breathing Dragonborn fighter named Trogdor right now. He loves to burninate and of course took the enlarged breath-weapon feat

    Do you not play WOW? Forked Thread: Wil Wheaton plays and reviews 4th.

    I have played WoW on a casual level since the beta and I love it. I also love 4e and all the versions of DnD before that too. In fact many of the people at our weekly 4e game are the same people in our small WoW guild for the occasional 5-man dungeon. I don't really see anything at odds...

    Thunderspire Labyrinth

    Has anyone had trouble with the Murklemor fight in the Horned Hold? It is turning out pretty grim since the two rooms easily get combined into one encounter.

    Thunderspire Labyrinth

    So far it has been a been a great adventure for my group. I find it expands the difficulty and assumed skill from KotS a bit, which is good imho. I love the potential of the seven-pillared hall, lots of intrigues going on there that the players are just beginning to realize. The players...

    D&D 4E; Official Supplements & Modules You'd Like to See

    A true complete out of the box super module. By that I mean all of the maps, tiles and minis needed for the entire thing. Throw in a download or CD of handouts and sound effects to boot. I would pay in the $100+ neighborhood for a good one.

    [w] + ???

    Thanks for the quick replies. fba: Is there somewhere else for the Weapon keyword? what I found on pg 56 in the PHB says: Weapon: Many martial powers, as well as several divine powers, can be used only if you’re wielding a weapon. (You can use an unarmed attack as your weapon.) A weapon’s...

    [w] + ???

    Probably an easily or already answered question but my search-fu is weak apparently. When you hit with an attack you usually do damage with a code that looks something like: X[W]+Y where X is a multiplier and Y is usually a stat bonus. It also seems to be that you add an additional variable...

    How Are your Books Holding Up?

    So far my gift set has held up well and I never had any smudging problems. Adventurers Vault also is holding up well. Overall no complaints.

    PHBII Classes Confirmed

    So now that we have more definite info on which classes are in and have seen more of a few of the classes any further speculation?

    Does everyone take Superior Weapon Proficiencies?

    IMC out of 5 players (Fighter, Cleric, Warlord, Rogue and Warlock) so far only the Rogue has gone with a weapon feat to use a rapier.

    D&D 4E Running player commentary on PCat's 4E Campaign - Heroic tier (finished)

    Great write ups as usual. It is a lot of fun to see how others DMs are handling 4e. I too will have to try to emphasize the interactivity of the environment for my players although there were some good moments in KotS. Thanks for the inspiration.

    How are the new races coming along?

    If our group is any indication the new has been well received. 1- A righteous Human Cleric of Erathis 2- A brutal Half-Elf Inspiring Warlord 3- A sarcastic Tiefling Starlock 4- A fire breathing Dragonborn Fighter (Trogdor anyone?) 5- A troubled Eladrin Rogue

    4E is unacceptable

    Not to side track a "pail and shovel" post but I keep seeing a few people say this about combat but it has been the farthest thing from my own 4e experience so I just wonder if it is a certain module or a certain party mix or something else?

    Siege of Bordrin's Watch - Scales of War Up

    Just wanted to second the comments about the maps. Please WotC give us useable maps.

    If Paizo had gone 4E ...

    There Paizo is not as obviously better than the pack, IMHO. It is their modules I used to buy/subscribe to and would love to see in 4e

    Skill challenge vs. acting it out

    I am DMing KotS right now and I have found that we have RP-ed almost all of the skill challenges. I find that the two systems blend well together and I give modifiers based on the role-playing (usually +/-2) That way someone with a real life 10 cha can still portray that 18 cha diplomaster.

    If Paizo had gone 4E ...

    As a 4e player that gets a big Yes. It would be great to see a Pathfinder AP for 4e I loved their products and was saddened when I had to let my subscriptions go.

    Slow site and supporters

    I am not looking for special treatment but I am looking for a greater number of users to actually support the site. Any method to encourage this while temporarily helping with the performance issues would be helpful. Ideas?
