    Adjudication for Dwarf Tossing

    I am actually more interested in the 'Unwilling target used as projectile' variant. END COMMUNICATION

    Ok, we will try to talk again tomorrow at 9:00 pm eastern (6:00 pm pacific). Dimdim looks plausible, but it has a 4 person limit for speaking at any given time. The glittercom seems to be a reasonable option, but perhaps not quite ideal given the complete lack of in application help files...

    Ok, dimdim does work. Getting used to enabling audio for all participants is a bit of work. Erydes and I are in this room: http://my.dimdim.com/lordzardoz/ I am not sure if you invite by e-mail. I am sure you have to register to the site first. Then visit that link while logged in. END...

    That time frame might work for me. I would prefer the Friday though. If you want to try dimdim.com tonight, just post a time in this thread. END COMMUNICATION

    Sounds like a winner to me. Do we want to give it a test run tonight or tomorrow? END COMMUNICATION

    I am not too familiar with much in the way of chat software. I was not aware of the skype conference call limit. Teamspeak sounds fine to me. END COMMUNICATION

    I think the first thing we should all do is select a real time chat mechanism for all (or at least most) of us to be able to have a real time conversation before we make any plans beyond that. END COMMUNICATION

    Adjudication for Dwarf Tossing

    The use of a ranged power seems like an interesting idea, but most powers I am aware of require a standard action to use. We are already using a standard action for Strength vs Fort as per the 'Move a grabbed opponent' option. As a DM, I might allow the use of a power for a willing projectile...

    Adjudication for Dwarf Tossing

    The subject of dwarf tossing in D&D 4e came up in a conversation just recently. After putting way too much thought into it, here is what I came up with for the series of required actions. 1) Grab attack - Str vs Reflex. (Standard Action). Typical resolution 2) Lifting the dwarf for a...

    Dwarf Tossing I would presume that for Dwarf Tossing, the following would need to happen: 1) Grab attack - Str vs Reflex. (Standard Action) 2) Move a Grabbed Object (Str vs Fort) allows me to move 1/2 my movement. I presume we can determine the distance of the throw with an Athletics...

    MortonStromgal, it is not a question how how much most of them enjoy the game that I run. I am not the only DM at present in the group. The problem is that as much as they like D&D, they do like to do other things more then D&D. Not even having Arenson or Gygax as the DM would be enough to...

    I am actually a bit surprised how many other people fell into the Sunday Game habit. It looks like the majority of you have much more reliable / consistent games then I have managed to have. With my current group of players, the typical reasons for cancelling are as follows: Player A: Heavy...

    Actually, as long as we have any leader class, we have healing. The Warlord would be fine by its self. This party will be quite durable, I think. My Barbarian can add a small amount of temp HP. Warlord Inspiring word is good for 2 healing surges per encounter. Cleric's Healing word is also...

    Tyrants Rage is from the Primal Power source book. Regarding the baseline starting hp, here is what I see in the Character Generator app Human Warlord, 11 con (NPC) 23 hp == 12 + Constitution score Goliath Paladin 16 con, (Fusion Cell) 31 hp == 15 + Constitution score Eladrin Rogue, 14 con...

    This thread has nothing to do with a given edition or rule set. The question is about how and when you actually manage to run your games. For the past 3 years, I have had a mostly stable group of 4 to 5 players. I try to run the game once a week. In a concession to the real world often being...

    I took Geography / Mountain to get +2 to Athletics. The details are in the .pdf copy of the character sheet I sent to you. Quick summary for Tyrants Rage: Atk: Str vs Will Hit: 2[W] + Str, target is Dazed (Save ends) Miss: Half damage, target dazed until end of my next turn Effect: Enter...

    Well Morrus, that makes two of us. I can work around it, but the problem is very bloody screwy. I have ruled out cookies and security settings for Firefox on my side of it (though not in any truly definitive way). My best theory right now is that this probably has something to do with either...
