I don't have any old school ass-kickers and dungeon crawlers in my crew (much to my dismay, sometimes :p) but it wasn't my intention to give them mechanical benefits for points (although I sometime give +2s for actions that make everyone on the table go "OMG HAWT!") I sadely can't accept giving...

Actually, I messed up in my description XD I was thinking more of something along the plot points from the CORTEX system (From anything Margaret Weiss) Basically, you could spend them to either augment your chance of success at an action (not really the point here) or use them to modify a...

Hiya folks! I'm trying to figure out a way to give the players more narative power in my weekly DnD game. I've been thinking using something similar to the FATE points from SOTC, but I'm still not sure. I wanted to know if you guys had any suggestion.

Thank you!

This is a brave new world, my friend, a brave new world. Although I am kinda nostalgic of 2nd edition. I should run a game sometime, for kicks. P.S. You got my name wrong ><

I know, it's an amazing feeling :p

I love it! Thank you all for the support :p Question to Danmar, though. You mind sticking my name somewhere on your blog? I'm a showoff at heart and I just have to ask for the "original idea" bragging rights :p If you want, let's work on a couple of neat critters, you and me, some time, I...

I must say... Efficiency is beautiful...

I understand your desire to make such a class, although I don't share it myself. But see it this way: While at level 15, all other characters are doing awesome things, having deep tactics and actually thinking before they do stuff (thus the intellectual pleasure of dungeon-y violence), this guy...

Well, for the grenades, yes. The mines are actual magic. I saw him sort of a tribal little wizard dude, making weird dangerous potions out of whatever he found (and it always explodes) with a little boom magic on the side.

Updated for fire damage. It hits against AC because it's a vial of some sort. It actually needs to hit the target, kinda like the kobold slinger's bullets.

If you remember the 3.5 book "Heroes of Battle", it does have a couple of pointers. My favorite would be to create fights inside bigger fights. Instead of statting a whole battalion of bad guys, have the player fight against 1-2 dudes while large scale battles are happening in the background...

Did that with a... Think it was a specters attack... or a dragon breath... "You guys all take 5. Except you, wizard, you take 20 fire damage."

Hey folks. Due to recent events, my crew lost a couple of players just before our secondary campain (we're running two campains in the same setting, with different DMs, alternating every week). So we're down to 3 players (I'll find more, the fourth is on vacation for a little over a month, and...

Added the HP!

It's not a question of view or explaination, it's a question of consistency (/s?). You can look anywhere through the book, and you won't find anything that uses a move action that isn't about moving. Another good alternative would be that you can get reach until the end of your turn, but you...

A charge is a standard action that makes you move up to your speed and attack. So yes, you could move up to your speed, then charge (effectively covering twice your speed, making a basic attack(so no powers) and grant combat advantage) And no, you can't shift into difficult terrain unless...

I kinda do like it, with one exception. The suprising reach feat. The only problem I do have with the feat, however, is the fact that it uses a move action to do something that is not movement. I honestly think that shouldn't happen anymore, it's a 3e-ism. I'd say something like : Whenever you...

Actually, when they get hit, they just blow up. Seriously, though, I'll post the HP is on my laptop, I'll post it after work tonight.

Well, the zombie weakness illustrates the beheading zombie thing pretty well. It's tough to behead something right in the middle of a combat situation. As far as dismemberment and zombies go, it's fairly simple. When you make a zombie bloodied, you've dismembered it (It's what I said). If you...
