    "Per-encounter" Classes allowed for a new campaign - need critique

    I had basically been thinking the same thing for my next campaign, if my current one ever goes boom (not going to happen soon by the look of my last few sessions :) ) I like your list, I personally have always picked Sorcs over Wizards due to the fact that there isn't as much of a pain of...

    Dragonmarked Inquiry, out of left field.

    Have you finished the rest of the series? The mindflayer ends up getting toasted by I think Pierce and he whole operation is destroyed. Altho that doesn't go to say that there can't be more of them out there :) But I think dealing with 3 mindflayers already is enough for the party *evil grin*...

    Dragonmarked Inquiry, out of left field.

    Heh think I gave my players a sentence for goals and one for quirks :P Some of the more important ones got a background sentence. They all jumped into the roles well and definately gave me more ideas for fleshing out some more NPCs :) Cheers, E

    DM Burnout or DM Frustration With His Players?

    In the Eberron Campaign that I run, our group also decided to keep up a journal (we keep one for our other campaign as well) but the DMs don't write them, the players do. Each session one person is appointed note taker (we try to rotate and even out the load as much as possible) and they take...

    Dragonmarked Inquiry, out of left field.

    Ok just finished DMing an amazing session so I thought I would spend a few minutes telling you all about it :P Plus I wanted feedback on if anybody else had tried something like this and have it work out. Note: All the players LOVED it, even the player getting grilled :) Background: The...

    How do you cope with only 4 characters in a party?

    Currently DMing a group with 6 players and me, honestly I have had to turn away other people interested in joining due to the fact that there are already too many players for my liking as a DM. A few things contribute tho, we already dont have enough space on the table for the current players...

    Little help finding a Castle

    What type of Castle are you looking for, the classic stone and mortar type or something totally different? Cheers, E

    Pictures of our encounters

    Brilliant, frelling brilliant!! Do the DDMs fit underneath the stands? If so I might just have to go buy a bunch of pizzas for the stands :P or just convince my group to not throw thiers out over the next week. Cheers, E

    Political Intrigue and Investigations

    Check out the PDF Dynasties and Demagogues. Its a great place to start, it even comes with its own adventure :)

    Secret doors...

    Are the doors hidden or just have "secret" combinations on them? I would rule that the elves get the normal chance to detect them but that they have to find the correct combination or "key" to open them. I just finished running an adventure where the party had to find a "Codebreaker" and then...

    Which ENWorlder Would You Want to Meet?

    Heh, its due to the fact that the co-worker just happens to be my room-mate as well as one of our other gamers. What be Battletech? I am totally up for drinking the day away... I am sure we can scrounge up a few more people :) Cheers, E

    Combat Sleight of Hand

    I would actually add a few things, one is the choice of using SoH "defensively" with concentration and the second is that the SoH only fails if the AoO is successful.

    Combat Sleight of Hand

    Thats pretty much how I would rule it, can I ask where you got all the info on it? A few of us spent most of a day reading thru the SRD and PHB to find the rules... Cheers, E edit: I would also only allow the AoO if the defender made thier spot check.

    Villian Exposes

    I can understand this and it is my preferred gaming style as well. My issue comes in to the fact that most of my players like to have thier hands held storywise. I have tried to allow them to pursue whatever they want, they are getting better at it but still prefer to be shown the next step...

    Villian Exposes

    Well its the morning after the first playtest of the Exposes. I actually really enjoyed it and seemed to get a positive reaction from my players, maybe Blarg and Backbeat will post up on what they thought of it. I'm not the greatest at writing out dialogue or "boxed" text but managed to get...

    Villian Exposes

    True enough, tho I doubt I will be doing much conversations. Mainly just events and BBEGs monologing. Tonight will be the first chance I get to try it out, forming ideas as I type. Kinda excited and hope it works out well. Cheers, E

    Villian Exposes

    Could you elaborate on how you use it in your campaign? Under what situations and how much you reveal? I am thinking of it as a chance to recap the last session and jump start them into the next session. eg. The party just finished clearing out an ancient giant Ziggurat in Zen'dric and are...

    Villian Exposes

    Had forgotten about dream sequences, only issue is that some of the party members don't actually sleep, silly warforged. But they do have a "spiritual" sponsor that hasn't been played up much, maybe its time to implement something. Thanks for the suggestions so far, keep em coming. I might...

    Villian Exposes

    I would be interested in hearing how your GM managed it. I am flexible either way, not going to be giving them alot of info, maybe BBEG has a small convo with a "Shadowy figure" that seems to be his boss. One interesting thing is that one of the PCs, the Changeling Rogue/Crusader who is...
