    Infinite XP Machines (respawning foes & XP)

    have the spirits not be malevolent they are re-fighting the same war, and cant really harm the party...maybe just make them run in fear on a will attack or something the party can eventually find the reason for the spirits not being able to rest and are award XP for the skill challenge /...

    4E, the Grind and Why I Play

    gotta agree with the OP it seems that classes are......you have +11 bonus and do [w] damage and an affect...isnt that sweet cos so does my charcater and so does his.... Seems a lack of variety, especially in utility and 'difference' and feel. spells just dont feel like spells anymore Its a...

    Improved Grab keeps killing PCs

    despise the 3e grapple rules...how easy is it to grab a cat or rat I find CQF just a bad band aid trying to cover a sceptic rule If you are playing house games and not to any living rules then just cut out grapples if a rule is killing the fun, why use it

    PHB 2 power creep

    Hmm. strange that. My dwarf warlock is currently 7th level. He is impressed by the damage the elf ranger does, but as he does more than the party fighter and paladin, he is happy. I get more irked that having +11 to hit seems not enuff rather than doing 2d8+d6+10 damage isnt enough!! I think...

    Anyone else not feel "the grind"

    I find combats go one of two ways.... either the party utterly overwhelm the encounter pretty quick and all its done save a bit of mopping up after 1 or 2 rounds OR a lot of encounter powers have missed, or done poor damage, and after 3-4 rounds all EP have gone, item powers used, a number...

    Am I the Only One Totally Apathetic About Power Sources?

    OP No, you are obviously not alone Things have a different power source name, but they dont 'feel' different. Even on the occassion they get close to some difference, maybe say primal, it gets a bit lost in that everyone sorta has +10 to hit to do a similar affect, as mentioned above So...

    Am I the Only One Totally Apathetic About Power Sources?

    100% agree. as basically fighters and wizards attack the same way, its an attempt to seperate them by tone ven though mechanics are the same one of several reasons i have dumped 4e.

    Perhaps a small boycott?

    began my boycott about 6 weeks ago by realising actually 4e is just a rubbish minis game when it comes down to it, so sold all my books and modules!!! Admin here. This is a superb example of trying to incite and inflame an edition wars argument, and is exactly what you should post if you want...

    Forked Thread: Bought Savage Worlds, what should I know about it?

    Triple Ace - Hell Frost this is a new publication due very soon almost traditional based fantasy game using SW I adore SW, but as it stands i dont think it does fantasy well. It is excellent for pirates and cowboys and pulp. At Conception I even used it to run an Equilibrium (the movie)...

    I'm bored with it all.

    try something with pirates POTSM or something pirates loves to kill things and take their stuff their are dead easy to get into character for they are dead easy to fill in back stories for and give lots motivation you can sneak in political intrique and romance without the party knowing...

    What rule system am i looking for?

    I dislike games with an active defence as its a pointless excercise and 1 roll too many BUT if you want to use it, you can in DND 4E take the monsters attack bonus and add 20 This the DC of the AC roll (or fort, etc) the PC needs to make Monster has +10 to hit and needs to Hit AC...

    What should I choose for my next system?

    SW isnt complex, BUT I grant you the explorers edition isnt the best rulebook to navigate round

    savage worlds is fairly close, DLR especially with magic having consequences thankfully, SW doesnt suffer from the grind that is No 3. on your list

    Players roll a defense against NPC/Monster attacks.

    if u use tiny adventures on facebook the mechanic is: assume monster always rolls a 20....so if a beastie as +5 to hit i need to make an AC roll of 25 i roll d20 and add my AC (say 17 or wotever) to try and beat 25 takes away a number of dice rolls from GM and players only have themselves...
