Wow... this thread is awesome. I was about to start on a set of mythology "handouts" for my game to deepen the world and explain some things and I was about 2 days from starting a similar thread myself. Already I've got what I need! Thanks! I hope this isn't too much of a thread-jack, but...

I do like Wildren (pronounced Will-dren not wild-ren) ...

Well, if the last few months of Dungeon have been an indication, I'm finding it harder to decide to buy a years worth prior to the price increase. I feel like the early magazines were so much more useful - lots of various adventures and articles I feel like almost any game could use... I really...

I don't think there's anything like this available publicly, but I'd be curious to see an archive somewhere of characters pasted from CharBuilder that included a question about if they've actually played with this character, how often, if they intend to continue, etc. I'd love to see aggregate...

Wow... Cyre on a planet they believe the Moruning has happened everywhere else.. they are the sole survivors... echos of destroyed buildings and artifacts slip into existence and you run around trying to figure out what happened, with the assumption that Cyre's leadership may have used a weapon...

Thanks for the replies... hopefully the OP is inspired by some examples of neat combat...

Does anybody have any historical examples of a city or fortress that was encapsulated by enemy walls/battlements during a siege? I have a city in my campaign that during a siege, magically they slowly built out walls around it and then built the walls inward. The war ended with the enemy army...

I thought early on (pre-release of 4E) the schedule was FR, EB, then a new setting for 2010 that was designed for 4E. I know they've changed their mind a lot of times. It also might be part of their gateway toward gaining gamers (remember the timeline was D&D veterans first, then try to hit new...

We level about every 3 sessions and threw out the XP and leveling chart. I respect people who use it, but it just hasn't ever worked right for the groups I play in.

Great job! I'm always about real data than eyeballing. Once wotc dropped pdf support I let my account lapse and decided to enjoy the stuff I had... kind of worked out that I haven't missed too much. I'll likely sign back on to get in at the cheaper price, but this certainly doesn't make me...

Seems reasonable to me. I'm somewhat ignorant, and my original post wasn't clear about that fact... it was just an assumption. I think they've done a much better job with 4E marketing than anything I've ever seen rpg wise... if they can take that same success and translate it into a sci-fi or...

I'm really hoping once 4E is pretty settled in (2011?) that they'll begin work on an alternity system using 4E mechanics retooled for a sci-fi setting. I wonder how interested they are in that, though... Alternity was fantastic but didn't seem to sell as well as they would've liked, same with...

Interesting ! I wouldn't suggest it's a new campaign setting, just a new set of adventures. Harkenwold is a forest and city in Nentir Vale if I remember correctly. Perhaps they're starting over but working within the same starting area. If we were looking at a brand new campaign setting I...

Both. I want to play the types of scenarios I want to... I don't want to wonder around for hours traveling or do quests I'm not interested in. WoW is great and it works fantastic for people, but I'm not interested in that anymore. I want to play in a world that I feel like I can make some...

I hope it doesn't get frustrating :0) That they don't release a piece of a class or feats that needs a keyword or something undefined (summoning, I'm looking at you). It's a tough line to walk... but I imagine it'll work out. I hope they keep doing this though, I'd hate for PH3 to come out and...

I like a lot of the individual adventures, but I felt too much that I was having to create the "Adventure Path" myself. To me they mostly feel no different than some of the other Dungeon adventures that might be set in a similar local (for instance, the recent adventure set in Fallcrest)...

Over a decade ago I used to do simming on IRC - basically it was freeform (no-stats) RPG weekly on an IRC channel. Usually an hour long. The Captain of the ship took the role of the Captain and sort of GM light (they got the ability to control events and NPC enemies) while each character played...

Weights of the Flaming Fist +1 These heavy weights appear to be made out of an unknown stone and have runes inscribed on them describing a training routine. As the monk makes the motions described the runes slowly wear and the understanding of the Form of the Flaming Fist solidifies in the...

You're thinking of the Necromancer.

Count me in! What was the speculation on it again... Elemental Controller? ;)
