In the normal progression, a party earns treasure each level equal to the value of two at-level items and one item each from level + 1 to level + 4. The Inherent Bonuses progression removes the level + 1 and the level + 4 item values, so the party gets the value of two at-level items, one...

Those look cool. Since my group plays virtually, I've just been using the image files from that newspaper clipping generator Morrus linked, but it might be fun to send out a 1-2 page PDF with several articles in it.

If you still have that spreadsheet, and no one else has done it already, I can probably figure out the math.

Ambivalent. I'm only reading the packets, not playing them, but I'm concerned that they're throwing the 4E baby out with the bathwater.

:D Alas, I almost certainly won't be at GenCon. I'm not really much for cons, although if friends are attending one I've been known to concurrently visit the city in question -- last year I went to Chicago during WorldCon when my buddy's book was up for the Hugo. So I guess a party in Indy...

Or perhaps, bail money included at sufficiently high pledge levels...:devil:

How about a backer-voted adventure PDF? So you guys put up a poll of the ideas you've been kicking around, and then backers vote on which one we want to see? What I'm actually looking for when I refresh the Kickstarter page is new pledge levels, though. I would have jumped on the PirateCat...

My active characters are both multiclassed hybrids with a specific schtick that lines up with their flavour/history. One is a human ensnaring Swordmage|Warden hybrid who is about to multiclass into Wizard at his next level (21). He's the stickiest defender I've seen in terms of keeping a single...

Cool. I'll post what I end up doing with them, so other DMs who haven't already integrated them somewhere else have another option.

Distant Madness I forgot to mention in my last update that Vesta made his distant madness save, and was cured. The players had been very paranoid about the possible effects of distant madness and asked everyone they could think of for help before their first extended rest. In a way, it was a bit...

That looks awesome. I wish there was a 4E variant.

Back at it in the new year! Pure RP tonight. First, the PCs decided to call on Nathan Jierre, hoping he might know something about Distant Madness. Unfortunately, he didn't, but he reminded them of a few things they'd forgotten -- the "blue sun" events on Axis Island, and he and Bela talked...

Feat bloat is a significant problem, especially at higher tiers. There are way too many feats, and too many of them are fiddly situational minor bonuses.

I'm a serious gamer by the OP's measure. I run and play in all 4E games currently, be it virtual tabletop, play by post, or the live tabletop WotBS game I started running that's been on hiatus for a while. I grew up on gold box basic and then later 2E AD&D, and although I did play in d20/3.x...

Had another session on Wednesday. The constables sent a runner to Nevard's henge to make contact with Pazumu the orc shaman and ask if she or anyone else there could help with Vesta's distant madness. Then they took Kaja back to HQ and locked her up. Since my players tend to act like adventurers...

Nice to see you back. :) Even with your breaks and buffer adventures, you guys have run way ahead of us.

Sent. :)

I'd love it if you'd post your update here. My WotBS game has also stopped for about 6 months, and I'm not sure if it's going to resume -- one of the players is in the game with one of her kids, and is currently in a custody battle with her ex. It's a real shame, too, because it's the kid's...

Good session last night. We started where we left off, and I had Bela arrive with his transfer papers. The PCs weren't hard to find, since there was still quite a commotion at the Gun Alley Stage where the battle had taken place. They recognized Bela, although most of them didn't know him well...

Oh, the warlock has Dual Implement Spellcaster to make good use of having a gun-wand in each hand.
