Wow, I really wished you had used my XP addition.... It really allowed me to sort on the fly, rather than have to hunt and peck through the list to find the "right" challenge.... Oh well.... Aluvial

Link Broken....

But then what? If you don't use it in initiative, when do you squeeze and attempt to grapple? If it is only when someone "enters" the area, then am I too assume if you avoid or break the grapple and are already in the area, nothing happens to you? That's not right. Aluvial

How do you adjudicate this spell if it is used as a trap? I had to roll initiative and treat it as a summoned creature because I used it as a trap. Is this correct? I understand that creatures who "enter" the area are affected, but what about those who "start" their turns in the effect...

I'm surprised that this hasn't come up before in my game, but it hasn't. Evard's is a 20' radius of tantacles that are 10' long; correct? If so, then do the tentacles have 10' of reach outside of the area of effect (in order to grapple those within range of the tentacle)? What do you think...

Thanks for the advice. I suppose I'm having problems with the whole "sub-class" thing, and the attribute pairs (coupled with race abilities). Anyhow, I can't believe that after 20 some years playing DnD, that I'm having trouble with character development.... Thanks again... Aluvial

I need some help... I can't believe I am SO lost trying to figure out this new system. I am supposed to be running a test game of 4e for my 3.5 group. I need 6, 6th level characters to play in as a party. I'm designing the adventure, but am having the worst time trying to figure the...

Hi all... I've added a column from the other excel sheet that had the XP on it to this spreadsheet. I fixed all of the names in the other, so all the xp should be correct. I don't have Open Office. I've renamed the file version as 1.1 Aluvial

I just got the email too. I ordered on Feb 10th... and no books. Stupid slip-case, which I've seen, and is very nice... good quality. Crap, after this, and seeing all of the errata that's piling up, and the fact that I'm NOT EVEN playing 4e, AND that I've already stolen the books...

No, there is no rule in 4e for it, therefore, there is no penalty. You are not to worry about such trivial matters in this system because they are just not "fun." Seriously. You don't worry about nitpicky details because that detracts from the "fun" of the game. Did you check the DMG? Aluvial

I have a problem with the homepage too... Everytime I open it, some BAD music starts and art flashes... Everytime.... Now I have to keep the page open... all the time... Crap. Aluvial

I played the pregen wizard. How did she score 30 points in one shot? EDIT: I'm looking at the sheet, the most damage that I can see is the Acid Arrow... with a crit, that's 20, with +5 acid a round... Anyhow... our dwarf scored a crit and did 41 points... which was A LOT...

A beta test for the apps (I'm sure there is in-house stuff being done, right?) would be best. I love the trial by fire aspect of computer betas... get the fans in there to nit-pick it to death, and usually, you get a better product... Aluvial

Hey there crowd. I'll begin by saying that I mostly lurk and pick brains about rules and such around here... Not much of a poster, don't really think about it much. So, I'm writing this as much as a way to organize my own thinking about the new edition as anything else. To begin, I'm 36...

Well, we opted for a compromise. I ruled that you could sing nearly indefintely, but that the magic of the song had a limit. Right now, each "song" per day, only lasts an hour. There are plenty of items, both in the rules, and out, that will fix this effect. Just ask my bard about his...

I am having trouble figuring out HP. At 1st level, is it your class number + your constitution modifier or your con score? Do you add any con bonuses when you level? and this is the biggest... Am I to understand that you don't roll for HP each level???? What!?? Aluvial

Do all magical items basically have the same DC number based on the spell level for calculating saves? Do you ever add in the user's relevent ability modifier? What about for scrolls, potions, and wands specifically? If not does this chart look correct? Spell Save Level DC...

This is a really good point.. And something that I missed... But then, I think they must of made some type of mistake, and the text should have read that the bonus was based on the caster's prime ability modifier to spells, not just Int. Worse, it makes a lot more sense to just say that the...

Let's not forget the filibuster. Strom Thurmand of SC holds the record at 24 hours, 18 minutes against the Civil Rights Act of 1957.... I don't want my bard doing that, but I would think that about an hour seems about right... still a VERY long time considering encounters in DnD. Aluvial

That's where I have the problem.... if it were at least a minimum of 23, then it would say that. This is (as far as I know) the only spell that partially does the calculation for you... and if that is the case, then the spell starts with a base 21, with a minimum of abilitiy of 12, which is a...
