Sounds a lot like my campaigns. Level 1 to Level 20 in 3 weeks. Doesn't leave a lot of downtime. Note: That's ingame time, not real time... that'd be quite insane.

That might have been a big problem. If it was taking OAs it shouldn't be taking then it would be near impossible for the rogue to get behind it to flank. That alone would have probably let the melee characters hit with their daily powers. Not to mention the dragon does a lot of damage on OAs...

The light's radius is the effective radius. Inside it, you can see well. Outside it, you can't.

Fear Aura? The white dragon doesn't have a fear aura... He does have Frightful Prescence, which is a standard action. How did the Warlord get hit moving up to the dragon? Only creatures with Threatening Reach get ranged OAs. Did the player's wait until the -2 to attacks was gone before using...

Only Adventurer wizards are probably going to wear leather armor. They need every advantage they can get. The more academic wizards probably snubb their noses at the thought of wearing anything less than silk. Hehe...

This might just be because I'm at a university... but so far D&D and drunkenness do not mix very well. We usually get people trying to mime their characters and end up falling down, throwing up, or passing out. Not to mention that the already horrible math skills D&D players have goes down to...

Hey, I said 90%, not 99.9%. :p

I'd have to agree with you there.

Eh, that's what I get for being underage. My limited experience of alcohol is beer and "trash can punch."

I don't really have an ideas about the monster itself, but the environment I can help with. Seeing as it's a large creature with a speed of 4, put it in a confined open space. Something like a large hall with 5ft pillars every 10ft. This will give your players plenty of opportunity to...

Yup, you need two targets. If you want to use it on one creature... just use Twin Strike. It's 90% the same thing.

DMG 42. Wine = Easy Ale/Beer = Moderate Liquor = Hard Use Endurance checks... DC increases by 1 for each drink. Failure gives -1 to all rolls. I just made that up... but it seems usable.

I never made the connection between Kobold Hall and Scalegloom Hall.... it makes sense now! But yeah... dragons are to be feared. The only thing you might have done differently is not using the breath every round. While Wizards tried to get rid of a lot of swingy mechanics, recharge attacks...

1. No, you just add what it tell you to add. In this case, Charisma. 2. As long as the power has the Weapon keyword, yes.

For the most part, it doesn't exist as it did in 3.5. There are still feats that modify powers, but they're limited. Let's see... feats that you might think of as metamagic: Arcane Reach Inescapable Force Golden Wyvern Adept (j/k, it's called Spell Accuracy) Basically, it's changed a lot...

They're not rules, they are guidelines. Their only purpose is to get you close enough to make it a decent challenge. Most of the monsters in the MM have fudged stats to help differentiate them from each other. Otherwise, you'd have all level 5 skirmishers having the exact same stats... Yawn!

The short version: Give them so many bonuses they can't fail. Did they roleplay well? +2. Aid Another? +2. Did they bring fritos/doritos/***tos? +2. Note: *** is a wildcard, not a curse. -_-

Most skills in combat are the action types stated in the Skills chapter. Bashing a door down is a standard action [DMG 64].

Yeah, there's a couple magic items I'm planning on kicking out as well. Sunrods (technically alchemical, but meh), anything that makes infinite stuff, etc. Well, not kicking out, they just "won't be available at any point." ;)

I see what you're saying, but the game mechanics don't really care. All flanking needs is for you to be opposite an ally and able to attack. Combat Advantage only cares if you can see the target (you can). Sneak Attack only cares that you have Combat Advantage. So the Cover never becomes an...
