    The best class for solo games

    Man... two rogues or a rogue+ranger group sounds like an awesome campaign. Keep to the shadows, develop some really stealthy things trying to keep the enemies at bay. Lots of stealing, diversions, traps... man.

    H3 Pyramid of Shadows - I Have It!

    Hmmm... I wonder based on the images if you have any suggestions on what to use for Arborean miniatures.

    Any Thurderspire (H2) aides?

    Does anybody know if Wizards is making the art available from these anywhere? I purchased the physical adventure but want to give the map of Thunderspire and The Seven Pillared Hall to my players. There's a lot of great images and handout stuff, but it's all in the book and I'd rather just give...

    D&D 4E The grindyness of 4e combat: anyone tried a solo monster yet?

    I've found that elite and solo monsters work best when paired with an interesting locations. Doesn't necessarily mean it has to be particularly dangerous or evil to the characters... just enough to make things dynamic with lots of movement, blocked views, positioning, and even better if there...

    Treasure of Talon Pass now available

    I think it's pretty large... 20mb... so maybe it's just taking a while to get up and going. I'd suggest right clicking and doing "Save as..." and then just look at the finished copy. Adobe's preview while you download settings may be on and giving you trouble. Looks pretty good... I'm eager to...

    Macroless Quick View Page for the Wiesbaden Wondersheet

    There's certainly bugs, but this is the most promising sheet out there right now. The more we get the details to James, the more quickly everything can be ironed out... any tips on bug tracking that'll help you make the corrections?

    Thunderspire Labyrinth

    We're about to start. I love the location, I like the individual fights and how you go to different halls and explore. The plot needed some tweaking but there's more there than KotS imho. Here's what I did Spoilers :-)

    New Power Sources

    Didn't Spy Craft have a "social combat" system that made social encounters and such as complex as combat with as many rolls and options and such? I've always liked the ideas as a supplement and felt it'd be neat as a sourcebook... Domains & Demagogues by WotC...

    Magic Missile and Opportunity Attacks

    Oooooh, I see! I didn't realize that. Thanks for the clarification.

    Magic Missile and Opportunity Attacks

    What's the advantage of allowing wizards/warlocks to use their respective powers as "ranged basic" attacks instead of them just being your at-will? When else can you use a ranged basic when you couldn't use a similar at-will?

    Awesome... thanks, James.

    4E Sorcerer vs Wizard?

    I wonder if there will be power chain type buffs as a class feature. Something where your first arcane spell gets a roll that sets your "tone" for the rest of the encounter... maybe makes your future spells cold based, or allows you to use a certain chain of at-will/encounter/daily versus...

    DDI Progress

    I understand that, but on the flip side how much money does it cost to run the Dungeon/Dragon side of DDI that they're eating up right now? It seems to me that last year someone pitched a business model and right now they're eating some major costs for dungeon/dragon/wizards.com when some basic...

    4E Sorcerer vs Wizard?

    Now just to decipher what "wild magery" means. Interesting!

    4E Sorcerer vs Wizard?

    Interesting idea about the wild mage. I sort of thought that's how they would've done the Warlock class - their dark pact gives them awesome power but there may be some chance that their powers damage them or their allies in the process. Maybe the Sorc will fit that role a little bit more.

    4E Sorcerer vs Wizard?

    Any word or speculation about how this class will be different than the wizard? Without the basic mechanic difference from 3.5, I'm having trouble how this isn't simply adding more wizard options... and can't seem to figure out how the basic mechanics will change. I'd love to learn more...

    Any Thurderspire (H2) aides?

    I suggest heading to the Cartographer's Guild if you want to get better at map stuff, grab textures, and share these there.

    DDI Progress

    I can't believe how slow they are getting this taken care of. Even if 10,000 people worldwide signed up for DDI they would be getting 100k a month revenue extra. You can't tell me that isn't an incentive to invest in some people that can actually get something done. The application in my sig...

    Breaking the Dark Wizard BBEG stereotype

    Looking over some recently released adventures, I frequently see a dark wizard as the BBEG. Sometimes it's something like a Dragon or some other magical end beast, but as far as characters as the bbeg wizards fit the bill. I understand why... cool magical effects let them do neat things...
