Greetings! Excellent! Definitely, the party will have to pay off various Royal debts. Gotta keep the Moneychangers and Minters happy! Indeed, that Innkeeper will be an important source to ally with, and keep their confidence. Definitely have to have merchant-friendly policies in place. Oh...

Greetings! *smiles* Great stuff, there Eridanis!;) That action is taking place, hmmm....south of Sharnogg.:cool: Semper Fidelis, SHARK

Greetings! Well, Kishin, such being *condescending* was certainly not my intention. It is simply my observation with both the vast majority of people here and elsewhere that I have discussed this with. In both contexts, "Nah, John. I don't care for 4E. It seems too video-gamey* Or-- "Yeah...

Greetings! PREACH ON, BROTHER!!!;) Totally. Dragonblade hit it right on the head. I know--from DMing so much--and dealing with uber-powered wizards and sorcerers--they weren't *invincible*--but just *ONE* of them required a Panzer Division*! to properly shut down, so that not only the rest of...

Greetings! Honestly? Be ruthless, and totally brutal in a staggered series of encounters...or even the segue into a whole new scenario, and just rip them down. "TO THE GROUND, BABY!";) The thing is, *YOU* must put a lot of thought and effort--remember who you're dealing with here--into...

Greetings! Oh. Well, Wayside, I suppose you can ignore whomever you like. I don't understand what so many people such as yourself--apparently--get all worked up over someone saying they don't like 4E, or critique 4E, as being "too videogamey". It's a description that many people feel is apt...

Greetings! *TOTAL WIN* my friend! These are outstanding! Oh yeah, it's all of this kinda stuff I'm thinkin' of! These are very cool, Ysdars! Semper Fidelis, SHARK

Greetings! Well, under the circumstances, Mrs. Gygax doesn't *need* to "run a business" or do much of anything--if she so chose. She has every right to grieve; every right to retire; every right to not do *anything* with Gary's IP's. Having said that--she seems to be moving in some direction...

Greetings! Outstanding points, Remathilis!;) A bit of a tangent--but when I remember in some of my History classes at the university some of the professors would assign various textbooks to the class, and sometimes, many of these books were written by some fairly obscure scholar somewhere, and...

Greetings! Indeed, my friend. You're quite right. The factionalism is a certain reality. The grand party could prove to be very interesting, with many different NPC's, several factions represented, and always new opportunities! Semper Fidelis, SHARK

Greetings! Very, very good! I love these ideas! WOOT! Semper Fidelis, SHARK

Greetings! Good stuff, Justanobody! Very interesting... Semper Fidelis, SHARK

Greetings! The group--The Company of the Silver Dragon--has recently conquered the capital city of a powerful kingdom. One of the members--is the new, de-facto king of the realm. The group has agreed with the offer of a Noble Vizier to have a grand party at the palace, to give their retinues...

Greetings! Ok. The group recently captured the capital city of a powerful kingdom. This kingdom--the Kingdom of Sharnogg--is somewhat of an ancient Persian culture. The kingdom has been around for hundreds of years, and controls millions of people and creatures. The capital city has over 1...

Greetings! I play WOW. I'm quite familiar with WOW's system. I also play Rolemaster, and D&D 3.5; Computer games--almost by definition, are simpler. The entire interface requires considerably less knowledge and active input from the player, compared to a Tabletop RPG. It's simple. Many people...

Greetings! Well, Twinbahamut--I agree with his observation that you are being *obtuse*. For one thing--I don't especially have any *negative* views on 4E. In my post earlier, I was simply rephrasing what others--who have said 4E is too *video-gamey* for them. Now, I personally don't care...

Greetings! Hey there my friend! Cool, cool. I'm glad you like it. I have had some opportunities to play with some of te gang here on occasion.:) They like epic tromping about in Thandor! Great stuff though. I think it's always good for high-level characters to grow and have to deal with other...

Greetings! Well, Mal, no. The example I gave has *NOTHING* to do with WOW's or any other video game's *POPULARITY*. Ok, I'll try this again. All video games tend to homogenize character classes. All video games tend to highly simplify combat mechanics, movement, what have you. All video games...

Greetings! Mal, right there. I'll see if I can give you a crystal clear example. In WOW, all of the classes are pretty homogenized, with similar powers doing *X* damage, but with a different name and slightly different style. There's some variation with the different classes, but there's a huge...

Greetings! Gee whiz. Ok, for all of you guys that are thrilled with the *video-game* cross-polenization, etc, and don't *get it* what people's problems are? Damn, gang. I know you guys are smarter than this. What's got you so blind? Look, it's simple. We're all talking about these...
