That diamond covers a MUCH larger area then the square. I would say no, but thats how I am gonna run it.

Thank you! Thats all I needed to know, now it makes perfect sense.

For example, the Wizard in KotS has Burning Hands which is Close: Blast 5 The way I am reading it, you target an adjecent square and then everything within 5 squares of that gets nailed EXCEPT for the origin square. That seems a bit strange and awkward, and if I am reading it right, is similar...

Do you think a Kinko's could scan and blow up the maps themselves? I suck with graphic editting and would like to have a full scale map made. It would be awesome.

I personally am not going to tell my party which is which but work off visual cues based on things like "He seems to be a little less trained" ect.

I myself am going to let my 2 players just control 2 PC's each, I am gonna pick one of the two remaining (the warlord is gonna be counted) and use that as an NPC, and run it without any care for RP. I bought the blasted KotS as a straight up system test. I know my players can RP and I hate...

I gotta ask - How the hell have you been playing 4th Ed for a month?!

And dont put words in my mouth. I did not say "If you do not like it, Shaddup", although I was tempted to. I said "If you do not like it then don't buy it and quit worrying about it." That means that dont spend your money on it, and dont stress yourself out about the changes. Find a game...

Possibly. I would hope people are smart enough though to realize that a preview adventure simply cannot possibly contain everything about a game. It is a preview after all. Perhaps that is why we dont see one of each class as a pregen? They had to release the Warlord on the web, and we still...

Its not an explicit statement however he is repeatedly stating that since this is the intro adventure then this is the way the game is meant to be played and is acting in a manner that suggests that he believes that this is the way 4th Ed is going to work out. In my opinion, he is acting...

Besides the fact that it doesnt hold every single rule to the game in its covers? Not much else. There is absolutly NO WAY that the little $30 intro adventure can hold every single rule in the DMG and Players Handbook. And if you honestly think that then there is something wrong.

So you are psychic and can tell us that for certain, no if ands or buts, that 4th Ed's Players Handbook and DMG will NOT have these rules that you need? Until the actual sourcebooks come out you are basing everything off a level 1-3 adventure. And it is entirely possible that they decided to...

You know, its an introductory adventure created by a group of people. They may have decided to focus purely on the combat aspects of the game itself. That does not mean that you cannot, using the 4th Ed Rules, create a plot driven adventure. The thing in a RPG (my opinion) that needs the MOST...

*goes crazy for craziness!*

Thanks for all the tips guys. So far I got a few ideas to help out with the issues.

Hard minions I take it? What about beads? Or should I just make some crazyness up? :P Good idea on the guard drake then. I will let one of the players (the more experienced one) control one if I like what I see. Otherwise, I might just run a 3rd party member as an NPC or just really tweak...

Thanks for clearing that up Caine. I should be good for $30 bucks either last week of may or first week of June :D

Actually they already have decided their characters - 1 is gonna be the Dragonborn Paladin, the other is gonna be the Cleric of Bahamat. So we got healing. Just...not much else.

Thanks! This should help me out greatly alone. Drop their HP to one, and apply the minion rules to em is what you are saying? Are there rules for healing potions or should I just come up with "Cure Light Wounds" pots that mimic the cleric power? The beads are a good idea as well. Guard...

Thanks my friend. Did they ever put PDF's up for the KotS character sheets?
