    List of iPhone applications for D&D

    Unless it explicitly takes advantage of mobility functions (like say ... telephony), there shouldn't be anything restricting you from using Apps on the touch.

    Is the DMG 2 recommended?

    I bought it, and love it. That said, I didn't buy it for crunch, I bought it for the Robin Laws brain dump about cooperative storytelling which takes up a good chunk.

    Short Rests?

    Correct. Think of being in the negatives as being analogous to when a professional wrestler is hit over the head by a chair. He's lying on the ground kicking and shaking his head, but can't do anything in the corresponding melee. Occasionally, perhaps through external help, he can get up and...

    Kalashtar and the Triliths...

    Being a huge Eberron fan, perhaps I can give some suggestions on how to tailor things; Historically Kalashtar's arch-enemies are the Quori. Beings from the realm of dreams. Now, the interesting thing is the CURRENT Quori are NOT the Quori the Kalashtar escaped from. When Dal Quor (the realm...

    It's Dark Sun

    This is true, and even currently (thought I expect THIS part to change eventually) you can even download every Dungeon and Dragon compilation that's been under D&DI. (That said the compendium will always be up to date).

    Monster Fluff

    One thing I would really like on all monsters is natural life span. Does the Basilisk I want to put outside the town live for 100 years? 500 years? It's handy when you want to have some folklorish type settings. (EG "Sweetheart terrorized these rivers for nearly 20 years!") I realize I can do...

    Brainstorming: Campaign "Pitches"

    This is exactly what I'm referring to in terms of a campaign pitch. I'm in a transitionary state currently with no game to run, so I'm thinking of just blasting out a bunch of pitches. Most creative types tell me it's not that they make the diamond in one shot, it's that through sheer...

    Brainstorming: Campaign "Pitches"

    An idea I've been mulling over is the concept of the "Campaign Pitch". Far too often I invest a lot of energy prepping for a campaign I'm about to run, only to find about .... 3 sessions in the players have NO interest in the actual campaign. Ultimately it leaves me with a lot of wasted work...

    It's Dark Sun

    Plus Drow in Eberron are NOT your typical Drow from Faerun.

    Shelter from the Storm - No B&W version?

    It does help on the file size for sure, for instance I leave the B&W files on my iDisk and I can read the module from my iPhone. The load times are exponentially different.

    D&D 4E 4e Dark Sun

    True, perhaps both directions are in the DM's realm of control. That way you can have your Jedi becoming Sith if the plot warrants (so to speak). Kinda like Paladins becoming Black Guards in 3.x.

    D&D 4E 4e Dark Sun

    I like this a lot, but I think a Preserver SHOULD be able to use a power with the Defiling keyword. Doing so should essentially change their status from Preserver to Defiler. Yet going the other direction would require a massive ritual / DM intervention.

    It's Dark Sun

    I think some clever ideas can work around the harsh requirements to make it fit the 4E design philosophies. For examples, perhaps mundane weapons are bone, early magic items are obsidian, mid-tier magic items are brass/weak metal, and only the highest level items (+5) are magical iron. I think...

    It's Dark Sun

    I think it's also going to be VERY important to reaffirm the 4E philosophy that Player Characters are a major cut above the rest of the populace. A lot of the magic and resources that are in discussion for being "Dark Sun-esque" or not might very well ONLY lie in the hands of PCs. Perhaps the...

    It's Dark Sun

    I'm not trying to start a ruckous, but I've seen your posts on both here and the WotC boards. I respect that you greatly enjoy heavy armor but I'd ask that you perhaps watch some of your wording. For example: The emphasis and the use of the word "some" makes the statement feel like an...

    It's Dark Sun

    Let's not forget the elemental power source is probalby in PHB4

    Explorer!!!

    I'm a big Eberron fan, and this looks like it fits the theme. I'm risking my $12.95 to see how it looks.

    Module 2 - Kazyk Revised Stats - SPOILERS

    Can I copy and paste these stats into WotC's monster builder? I've been thinking of putting the monsters from the modules into it, and was wondering if this was the RTF format they used.

    July PDF

    Thanks for the update. I have no problems with things taking longer, just wanted to know what the estimated schedule was (I'm a software dev, so I'm used to changing deadlines). Any chance the main page schedule could get updated when folks have free time? (Meaning are all further releases...

    July PDF

    Hello, I subscribed to the WotBS campaign PDFs. I noticed Adventure #3 was supposed to be released in July. Is this schedule up to date with all the latest information, or has the schedule been adjusted? When can we anticipate #3's release?
