I obviously can't speak for future stories, but there is a story featuring them in them in the Eberron anthology... I think the title of the anthology is something like "Tales of the Last War."

Here's my logic: The default for an attack is normal damage. A brute's attack is shifted up one category to high damage. An AoE attack is shifted down one category to low damage. A brute's AoE does normal damage. If it's an at-will attack, do at-will damage. Otherwise, do limited damage...

Well that's embarassing. >_> I actually wrote this thing up a couple weeks ago and just updated it with the new math. At the time I thought I'd not allowed d4s as usable, and I swear I did a search on "d4" and didn't find anything before replying... My bad.

Not a rounding error so much as an issue of terminology and imprecision thereof. Specifically, when I say "-25%" and "+25%", what I mean is multiply by .75 or 1.25, respectively. Thus a low-limited attack is actually 15/16 (~93%) of a medium at-will, and a high limited attack is 25/16 (~156%)...

You may want to ensure that the players are on the same page as you. Explain to them that a round is 6 seconds, every minute is 10 rounds, and if they spend 3 minutes sneaking around for the flank then that's 30 rounds the paladin's going to be by himself against the monsters. Of course, if...

So... It took me a couple reads, but if I understand correctly, your gripe is that someone who runs a meetup group voluntarily passed along some marketing for a (presumably) relevant program and you're annoyed by that because you disagree with some choices the company made? Even my own summary...

Ah, that's interesting. Glad to hear it!

Here's an idea I've had to manage aggro in an original game. Each player has a certain color of stone. Whenever they attack the monster, they add in some number of stones to a bag. More damage = more stones. The "tank" would have attacks which do relatively low damage but put in...

I think tonight for dinner I'll have ghoti with some au gratin ghoughpteighbteaus on the side.

You know, this thread is three years old and still gets resurrected every couple months. I can't help but wonder how many sales of Dread can be traced back to this thing popping up and someone new finding out about it?

Rhymes with cow.

There are, but you can either scale them (a centimeter is about 40% of an inch) or just measure. Personally, I played Savage Worlds on a grid, so I never measured anything...

Replace "inches" with "centimeters." Heck, you could replace them with feet, rods, or light years too. Units don't matter.

That's an angle I hadn't considered. Sarcasm, as everyone on the internet knows, does not translate well to text, and if that was what they were going for then their choice of first line to introduce the character is... very questionable. At the very least, while I hope you're right, there's...

"We elves walk ancient paths." Blech.

I got it for the 360 as well. Flavorwise, it's got a very G1 feel to it. It's set way in the past and we get to see the establishment of some important relationships (e.g. Megatron/Starscream). Gameplay wise, I'm enjoying it. Not crazy about the campaign play because it's fairly limited, but...

One thing I'd recommend is the use of more forces. The first SW game I ran was set in their Necropolis setting, where the PCs each were lieutenants and each had 2 or 3 soldiers they controlled in addition. The net result was that the battles were large, i.e. as many as 15 people on each side...

Well *that's* a failure of imagination if I've ever seen one. If profits < expenses, then they've lost money, and I can think of a great many ways that that could be true.

Anyone else playing the new Transformers game? It's pretty sweet.
