We currently do this. To keep players from metagaming we also roll a d6 along with the d20. If the d20 is even (and hits) we add the d6 to the average damage. If the d20 hits and is odd, we subtract the d6 from average damage. This creates a spread of 12 damage. It works very well.

The latest Essentials article can be found here: Dungeons & Dragons Roleplaying Game Official Home Page - Article (Powers, Implements, Feats ...) Some good stuff here. Implement proficiency, some updated powers (though not named), all races to be like PH3 races with flexible stat bonus and...

I'm just not sure that Skyships, Immortals and Red Steel is enough to differentiate it and give it a strong enough hook on its owm. In regards to FR, I think FR has enough that it doesn't have to take from Mystara, nor would it ingratiate the fans of Mystara either. ;) As for Birthright, it...

Bingo! The problem with Mystara, is that you can enhance any particular aspect of the world to give it a unique feel - which unforunately - at the same time destroys the Mystara feel. I just don't think there is a way to keep it Mystara and keep the old fans while making it unique enough to...

I agree with you on everything you said. I will just add, that Red Hand of Doom is an adventure that came out near the end of 3.5. As product options dry up, WotC seems to invest a lot more in module design and this seems to be where they have the most success with modules. And FWIW, I feel...

Your facts are far from correct. 1. Its not a system reboot. 2. Essentials has created a lot of discussion but I'd hardly call it fracturing the fanbase. 3. The old school feel of Essentials does indeed appeal to some non 4e fans so it continues to attract new players. 4. WotC continues...

Good job! I'd XP you, but I've done that recently so I can't. :(

Yep, I remember this too. Which really disappoints me as I badly want to see a new Mystara! Edit: I don't think they will ever reprint Mystara. That world was very traditional, being one of the original worlds and all. If they left it as it is, it wouldn't be that far removed from Greyhawk...

I think WotC chooses NOT to design adventures like Paizo. I don't think its a case of CAN'T. Since the start of 3e, WotC drastically reduced the number of modules they released (generally leaving that to 3pp). In 4e, its still the same but now the entire game seems to be targetted to...

Two points here. First, right before the change to the monthly subscription, IIRC, it was stated that there was concern about the long term viability of the site (or maybe it was just that you wanted to turn it more into a business). In addition, I remember multipe campaign drives for...

Ok.... :uhoh:

That seems rather silly. The farther you teleport the more noise you make when you arrive. Uh, what? Not saying your wrong, but that ruling seems silly to me.

It is one of the stranger rule designs in 4e to be sure. I think the designers firmly believe that condition save ends is supposed to be worse than condition until end of next turn (whether its yours or the monsters) but in reality its the other way around quite often. Having said that, I...

Morrus, I know you are looking for cancellation reasons. But this reason has kept me from both subscribing and it would cause me to cancel. Stability - ENWorld seems to go through fundamental shifts every 6 months or so. In terms of account benefits, plans, options, what you can do on the...

I honestly think you are a bit too far removed from your beginning days into the hobby. That, or your superior IQ prevents you from seeing the issue that some people have with complex tactics (and just so you know, I am not trying to be insulting here). The reality is this - the knight...

Those books were good or bad depending on the individual tables preferences. From a community perspective, those books ensured no one was playing the same rules ever again!

Doh! I would XP you, but apparently I already have and can't again!

I tried...but I'm in the same boat. ;)

I absolutely agree with Stalker0.

Last post wins the thread! Nice. I will have to remember that. Of course, if anyone posts about that (or anything else) in this thread, I of course will have to post again - just to win the thread! :D
