    Gears of Revolution: Notes on my campaign

    I'm actually quite interested to see how my players respond over the next few sessions when given the chance to track down the brothers (whether via Cippiano or their own investigations). Hopefully they buy some fire resistance potions and return for a grudge match, but I wouldn't be...

    Gears of Revolution: Notes on my campaign

    Just finished session 13, which I'll post about another day (it's 11.45pm here). Before going to bed, I thought I'd pop in and give a friendly warning to other DMs about the Arson encounter. It's deadly. My group's swarm druid Thornt went from 27 hp to -15 hp in one round (a combination of...

    Admiral o' the High Seas - Naval Adventure Rules (PF & 4e)

    Just to clarify, does the dignitary pack ($25+) include a copy of the PDF?

    Indeed it is!

    Digging for Lies: How does Distant Madness work?

    So if we use "exposed" to mean you've been hit by a relevant power but aren't infected until you fail a save at the end of the encounter, and "infected" to mean the PC is suffering the effects of the disease, should the powers read: "the target is exposed to Distant Madness. If the target has...

    Digging for Lies: How does Distant Madness work?

    The effects of the disease itself are pretty clear, but I'm not clear on how exactly it ends up infecting a PC. For example, the worm maw's Drain Thoughts power (page 12) says that "the target contracts" the disease. The eye of madness' Burst of Terror power (page 27) says "the target is...

    Digging for Lies softcovers now available

    Those pictures almost make me wish I weren't a subscriber so I could buy the softcovers... And no I can't buy them again. My wife has an eye for details and a strong right hook :)

    Help me with a fey-themed adventure

    In my :z: campaign, I am running a subplot involving the wife of one of the PCs having promised their first child to the Unseen Court in return for the PC's safe return from war. Erik's wife sara is now (or will shortly be) 6 months pregnant and Erik has recently become aware of her acting...

    Odd Development in Axis Island Module *possible spoiler*

    I made the same mistake, Bruize. My group is now halfway through Adventure 2 and the seal hasn't been mentioned again. It helps that the salary and stipend rules require the PCs to hand over the icons at the end of adventure 1 (unless they choose not to report them of course, but in that case...

    Gears of Revolution: Notes on my campaign

    Session 12: Fall of Indomitability Session Summary The sunrod landed square in the middle of RT3's camp, and Wilheim immediately moved to scoop it up and cast it back into the darkness. Even his fleetness proved insufficient and the semi-transparent crone circling the camp swept up into the...

    Help me utilise Dominated

    For any who were interested, it was the thief that ended up dominated. He got one non-sneak-attack shot off at his allies before making his save. I next tried to dominate the monk (to access his AoE at-wills) but missed, and then didn't get to use the power again. Still, that one round was...

    Ormazd's Campaign Log

    If I wasn't so in love with Zeitgeist, the events of this session would be enough for me to be starting a WotBS campaign. Oh well, maybe if one of my players feels like running an off-campaign...

    ZEITGEIST A chance to blow Zeitgeist's trumpet

    Over on the rpgnet d20 spotlight forum there's a thread asking for comments about zeitgeist. Only two responses so far (including mine) but if youlove :z: as much as I do, please drop in and give it a toot. Sorry, I'm not skilled enough on my iPod to hyperlink to the thread!

    Status of Adventure 3 - Digging for Lies

    Out of interest, is it solely annoying to be hounded like this, or is there an element of "at least they're obviously interested in the product"?

    ZEITGEIST Eight ZEITGEIST storyhours (and three for War of the Burning Sky)

    God I hope so! I'm going through Digging for Lies, and just can't believe how the AP maintains such an amazing storyline. Part of me wonders how much better received 4e might have been if a published AP like this had existed in the early days...

    Gears of Revolution: Notes on my campaign

    Session 11: Meeting with a skyseer Session summary While their companions paused to ponder what had just happened, Tok and Wilheim sprinted down the switchback to the crushed carriage. The changeling clambered into the wreckage and began lifting shattered timber from the pile, soon uncovering...

    Help me utilise Dominated

    In an upcoming :z: session, I get to use a creature that has an at-will power that dominates (save ends)*. The power targets Will. The PCs consist of a knight, a thief, a swarm druid, a cunning bard, and a centred breath monk. The fight will take place in pretty tight quarters from which the...

    Gears of Revolution: Notes on my campaign

    Session 10: Cloudwood Sorry for the big gap between updates. We had a LONG Christmas break... Sorry also for the two spoiler blocks. When I try to edit the post, there's only one sblock so I have no idea what's going on there. Session Recap RT3 soon regathered at the constabulary’s...
