    Assassin Shrouds on Minions

    Thank you... Based on the wording of each, I think it is pretty clear that you are making an attack, and that attack is dealing damage on a miss, thus the minion wouldn't die. The only reason it is doing the damage on the miss is because of shroud, but you don't get the additional shroud...

    Assassin Shrouds on Minions

    You can think of it that way, but it's not a power or written up as the normal power blocks are, so that doesn't matter. Anyone have the actual wording on the "minions not dying/taking damage on a miss" rule?

    Twilight, the Uncertain Knight, and the Distressed Damsel

    I must have poor comprehension skills or just oblivious, but I saw nothing in the first movie that seemed out of the ordinary in terms of relationship abuse. Even in the second movie, although there were the werewolves and their rage, and house that affected the one werewolf dude's girlfriend...

    Assassin Shrouds on Minions

    There are no rules for missed attacks hitting something else that I am aware of. If this is something your DM is coming up with, you've already stepped into house rule territory, so why stop there? This situation would never happen with the current RAW... There is no such "If attack misses...

    Assassin Shrouds on Minions

    I think it depends on the wording of the "minions don't die on missed attacks" rule. Depending on the wording, it might only affect POWERS with a MISS component that still deal damage ona MISS (like most Daily's have). But it could also mean ANY attack that happens to deal damage on a miss...

    Is a dying character still bloodied?

    Well what about other effects? If you have ongoing Poison 5 (save ends) and Daze (save ends) and go to negative hit points, are these effects still on you? Do you have to continue to save?

    Magic: the Gathering - Duels of the Planeswalkers

    I got this for XBox. It was fun for a bit. But they SERIOUSLY need to have a full deck builder. They also need better multiplayer options.

    2010----In Remembrance.

    “Comedian Zach Braff was found dead inside his 32,000 square foot estate in Beverly Hills, California this afternoon, as an alleged suicide,” the report read. “Beverly Hills police were called to the scene at about 2:00pm EST. today to find the actor with an empty pill bottle at his side.” “No...

    Does height give you any advantages?

    Does height give you any advantages? Seems like a relevant answer to the question posed. In fact, that is the first thing I thought of, but since Mengu beat me to it, no need to be redundant. I'm not sure if squeezing is also an advantage/disadvantage of height, or if that is strictly by the...

    Vulnerabilities: an underutilized mechanism?

    So, Green Slime is vulnerable to both Radiant and Fire. So if an attack has both keywords (Radiant and Fire), does the Green Slime take 10 additional damage (+5 from Radiant and +5 from Fire)?

    Missing Archetype - Martial two-hander wielding striker?

    Not sure this type of response was called for, especially for someone asking for advice on these boards. Just sayyin'. This is the route I would take. What he is looking for is basically the Barbarian. Make the flavor changes as needed.

    Tell Me Everything There Is To Know About Push, Pull & Slide

    So this would negate alot of the functionality of Storm Pillar then, when used in conjuction with forced movement powers. I always allowed my Wizard to drop a Storm Pillar near an enemy, then Action Point Thunderwave and push them a few squares through it to rack up some damage.

    Can someone tell me the difference between these two feats?

    First off, this is a copy/paste from Character Builder. Secondly, BOTH these feats are from Dragon Magazine 377 (according to Character Builder) Maybe it is right in front of me and I can't see it, but... They are worded differently, but do the same thing. Why have two differently named...

    Spartacus: Blood and Sand - Official Trailer

    Looks like a combination of 300 and Gladiator. And I thought HBO's Rome was good. This looks awesome! Spartacus: Blood and Sand - Official Trailer

    Nixies

    I don't see how that is edition bashing. It is a fair statement. One I happen to disagree with, but a fair statement or concern to have. @Zaran: D&D ISN'T just "all about" combat, unless you make it out to be. It is really good at giving you ALL the information and rules you are going to...

    December Rules Update Available

    Well, in the previous edition, you had a -2 penalty to hit when using TWF. So how would Twin Strike look if it read: Attack: Str -1 vs AC, two attacks Damage: 1[W], each attack ???

    Take a look at this Avenger and..

    Maybe I am asking stupid questions because I don't have my books in front of me (and I am not familiar with the Avenger or Armor of Faith), but... Why would Charging affect Armor of Faith? It seems like an out of place statement to make. Kind of like stating "Swimming doesn't affect Armor of...

    Marking/challenging

    Creatures know what conditions and effects are affecting them. Marked is a condition. What they don't necessarily know is any additional effects that could trigger off of those conditions. A creature will know when a Fighter marks them for example, but won't necessarily know that the...
