    D&D 4E WotC Greg: 4E Campaign Report Part 2

    I had the same experience at DDXP with the Dragon. We beat it, but it felt like a hit point grind.

    Richard Baker on Orcus and Deity Slaying

    I want to know at what level I can start granting the townsfolk spells for worshiping me. :]

    The Unstoppable Black Dragon

    We beat it. I was playing the Warlock, crit'd with my daily, but missed with my encounter. Figured out through trial and error that Will was the weak save and kept shooting it with Eyebite. Several other big helps: 1) The DM rolled like crap the whole time. Dragon only got one, maybe two...

    Austin to Indy in 18 hours! (Seeking roadtrip homies)

    Will: There's a group of UD Dragon clubbers leaving on Tuesday afternoon (I'll be driving from Fairfax, so I won't be among them this year); if you're interested shoot me an email and I'll put you in contact with them.

    What's your DM Shtick?

    I have two paradigms that I can't seem to break: 1) The last adventure has world-shaking consequences. 2) The characters' backgrounds follow them around constantly. In fact, I usually start with a very vague idea for a campaign and then mold the particular adventures around their backgrounds.

    Worst...Idea...Ever

    I'm going to pick something off the wall, because I'm chiming in late: Medium armor slowing you down. It makes it worthless. Medium armor should cut run speed, heavy armor should cut speed.

    Favorite Non-Core Base Class (Redux)

    Went for Aritificer, but then, as far as D&D goes I'm an Ebberon whore.

    How did guns change medieval societies?

    The introduction of guns also meant that any climactic fights must have nearby doves flying by in slow motion.

    Star Wars games in the wake of RotS

    I bet it wouldn't be hard to adapt d20M or Grim Tales using the Psychic's Handbook. And Jedi Counseling 10 was the force lightning article; good stuff: http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=starwars/article/sw20030320counseling

    Star Wars games in the wake of RotS

    There was an old Jedi counseling article which made Force lightning into a power that uses an attack roll, and did the redirect thing that Yoda does in AoTC as a use of a Force point associated with the Block ability. Ultimately, though, I'd be tempted to go with adapting grim tales/d20 future.

    ENWorld Gencon Pickup Games?

    Next week, if it hasn't already been done, I'll start a thread for pick-up game signups. I figured I'd wait a week-1.5 weeks after registration opened so that people would have their official schedules worked out.

    D20 system to play Firefly?

    I actually used Spycraft for a Firefly one-shot; it worked pretty well. I'd definitely go Sidewinder/Future/Hot Pursuit for a long term game though.

    D&D 4E 4E in 2008? Fact or Fiction?

    I hope this thread sets off another rash of 4e threads, like "What should the pagination look like in the new books?"

    [Dreamscapes] Discussion Thread (with creator)

    I had a dream once. This guy was helping me get ready for a session, and he made this dragon. And then, the PC's totally didn't fight the dragon. But his effort was still appreciated, because, in my mind, I can still smell the acrid odor of burning PC hair in the fight that was not...

    In Auburn for the summer...

    Did you bump the thread? Who, me? Yes, me. Why, couldn't be. Not me! Yeah, I did it.

    Another new Batman Begins trailer

    As far as I'm concerned this is the first (live action) Batman movie. Sure Batman and Batman Returns are fine films (I own and enjoy both of them). However, the character portrayed in them seems more like James Bond in a bat-suit.
