I've just started playing in a large group (6-8 PCs per session) and we have the luxury of having an INT based warlord and a CHA based warlord. I'm playing the tactical warlord and having a blast with it. Commander's Strike makes you everyone's best friend and in just two sessions has really...

Thanks for this! I've saved it for future use. In response to ruemere: DCs don't scale with level, they scale with CR. It is perfectly fine to have a CR 3 trap (or monster) in an adventure for 12th level characters as long as the players understand that no xp is going to get handed out for that.

Thanks all! Keep em coming!

Great stuff! I should add that I envision tunnels that lead off into other sections, so both the dragon and the beholders could have alternate exit routes. They may not even know about the hole.

Help me with a short (1-2 session) scenario please. When the PCs were less experienced, they were exploring a dungeon complex beneath a city. At the end of a corridor they came upon a room with three trolls. The three trolls were way too much for the PCs but through very clever uses of spells...

Thank you!

I recall reading rules for swarms comprised of small and even medium creatures in a published product. It seems like a mob of humans and a swarm of skeleton may have been an example. I want to avoid looking through 100 books and magazines on my shelf so any help narrowing this down would be...

Isle of Dread Beast of Burden (Dungeon #100)

That's a much better progression, especially since it follows the rules. Thanks! The concern I'm seeing now is when I am at character levels 2 through 5 (Fighter 1/Wizard 1 through Fighter 1/Wizard 4) of which combination of equipment and spells to shoot for (i.e. wear good armor and only use...

What I have in mind is: Dwarf F1/ Wiz4/ Runesmith1/ Abjurant Champion5/ EK 8 I'm looking for advice on spell and feat selection and equipment (magic and mundane), especially through the first 12 levels. We're unlikely to go much beyond that. I'm thinking early on he will be little more than...

Smithwicks is very nice indeed. The beer in the fridge most often is Shiner Bock because everyone who comes to my house at least likes it. It is just full bodied enough to drink on its own, but not overpowering to drink with a meal. It is just dark enough to appeal to beer snobs (which I...

This is all great. Keep it coming.

My group will be starting a 3.5 campaign set in Ptolus. We all find 4E to be acceptable to great but we'll be using 3.5 because: 1. Ptolus is a very well developed setting with lots of pre-made adventures and areas already made in 3.5. and 2. Many of the players just acquired a ton of 3.5...

From my limited experience so far it seems like a warlord is more useful in a larger party and/or one that includes a rogue. For smaller parties (say 3-4 total) a cleric would probably be a bit better.

If anyone knows what this paint is called, please chime in. It sounds like it might be the thing I need.

Company is Venture Products (they only sell to retailers) Purchased at Target Product name is "Wipe Works Message Boards"

I have wanted some tac-tiles for a while now but the company seems to have stopped making them. For those of you who don't know, they are interlocking squares with a grid that you can use for a battlemat. Now an office supply company has produced interlocking 8 in. x 8 in. white-board pieces...

Here is my first draft. I made this at 4th level since that is when I am joining the campaign. Rationale for all of this follows. Human Warlord 4 (Tactical) S 17 (1 added at 4) D 10 C 12 I 19 (1 added at 4) W 12 Ch 8 F +18 R +18 W +16 AC 20 HP 39 Feats: Weapon Prof: Spiked Chain, Tactical...

Some players are playing two characters. - I've got the rogue and the warlord. I fell in love with the tactical warlord but I may switch the rogue to eladrin simply for the teleport power to get around the issue of bottlenecks. The extra skill is also nice. For the warlord - if I go with a...

All good stuff. What about magic items/feats/powers to aim for as I level?
