In our War of the Burning Sky campaign, I give everyone three action points per game session. It seems to work very well. I also allow them to use an action points to "cheat death". (Although I've still had character deaths...)

Wanted to know if anyone knew the answer to this. On the Dungeon Submission Guidelines Page: http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/submissions For Encounter Format it says: "Encounter Format See below for a copy of our encounter format. Use this format to generate all tactical encounters...

I made a new Meetup site for online D&D if anyone is interested: http://www.onlinednd.com/ If you play online, how do you play? Email? Message Board? IM? Virtual Table Top? We use MapTool, which I think is awesome: http://rptools.net/doku.php?id=maptool:intro If you don't play online...

We have an opening for another player in our War of the Burning Sky game. We use MapTool, a very nice open source java based VTT which can be found here: http://rptools.net/doku.php?id=maptool:intro We meet every Tuesday and Thursday from 10pm-12am Pacific. The party is currently 5th level...

Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute...there are forums outside of EN World? :confused:

Great DM's understand what style of game they are running: http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?t=197954 They also understand that there is no one best way to run D&D.

Just a bump to say I told you so. :p

One of the girls in our group (ok, the ONLY girl in our group) is the chattiest in the bunch when it comes to 4E talk. Did none of your girls watch the videos on YouTube? Or read the designer blogs? Both of these greatly appeal to the token gamer girl in our group.

That's not a problem for me. I'm playing a cleric (combat medic) using it with armor spikes and a (non-proficient) tower shield and wand in hand.

Found most of my answers in the FAQ, but still wondering about the defending property.

I wanted to see how effective the tower shield is for someone who is not proficient with it. I still get the full shield bonus, the only penalty I see is "A character who wears armor and/or uses a shield with which he or she is not proficient takes the armor’s (and/or shield’s) armor check...

I think they just need to make it easier to find people to play with online. Or make the game so successful that every town has a gaming group. I also run two solo games (one through MapTool and one through email) in 3.5 and I've had no complaints about balance. The best part about a solo...

Speaking of miniatures, has anyone else noticed that the "Bloodied" mechanic is is similar to the morale mechanics in DDM? I've always liked having something kick in at half HP, even if it was just "save or flee".

IIRC, the basement was a decent sized area. The tower was small but appropriate enough for the number of archers they had to defend it.

That would be interesting. I ran a module that was designed for 1st level characters against a party of 4th level characters. The monsters were Dobbin, the evil twin of Grigs (Jimminy Cricket people). Instead of pitting the party against a dozen of these guys, I made a mob from DMG 2. It was...

Well the goal probably isn't to have 20 creatures attack one target at the same time, but a crit is still a crit and will kill a first level character. Years ago I killed a low level character with a scythe wieldling grimlock who scored a lucky x4 crit. The player was a little bummed that he...

I concluded a 2nd edition FR Dungeon module yesterday. It takes place in a three story manor house with dozens and dozens of jermlaine. The party was 4th level, but these little 1 HD, shortbow carrying critters with sneak attack posed a huge challenge for the party when attacking in large...

You are using a "3E mindset". Do they know there will be iconics? Assuming a pronoun is used where the gender is not defined, which do you prefer to see? If you don't care then don't vote, but the poll is to see, of those who do care, which one they prefer to see over the other. And yes, the...

The poll's not flawed. If you had to pick between one or the other, which would you pick? Don't like the poll? Don't vote.
