    Game mechanics for Eberron Mind Flayer research lab / John Carpenter's 'The Thing'

    I'd suggest using the Savage Creature template from "There Is No Honor" in Dungeon 138.

    ...in which case you blast him with ordinary Fireballs.

    Pirate/Nautical-themed encounters

    Savage Tides? I have those magazines. Sadly, I can't simply run the AP because one of my players went through it with another gaming group.

    Pirate/Nautical-themed encounters

    I'm planning a pirate-themed campaign, so I started brainstorming possible shipboard encounters. Some of these are Eberron-specific, but most are general enough to apply to any setting. 1. Another ship passes within hailing distance: -- Lyrander magic ship -- Lyrander sailing ship -- merchant...

    Good Feat Choices For A Cleric

    Brew Potion is decent. Otherwise, if there are any prestige classes the player might like to use, a feat that leads to one of those would be good. If he's built as a melee cleric, Power Attack isn't bad, either.

    can you sell pdfs?

    Likewise, it is physically impossible to buy the original of the pdf. Instead, you get a copy of a copy of a copy of a copy...out to the 30th or 40th copy, if you count the copies that get made on all the routers and switches between your PC and the server.

    ENWorld Gameday Minneapolis/St. Paul - any interest?

    :) I've tentatively added everyone who's expressed interest to the Microlite game, but it would help if everyone could confirm that they're definitely "in" for that event. Also, if we get any more people, we'll need a second event. Could I trouble someone to volunteer to run a second event?

    New Microlite20 thread

    Hmm...has anyone tried to convert Eberron-specific material to Microlite20? I'm planning an Eberron game, and I'd like to use Microlite for the rules. However, I'm not sure that the "classic" Eberron elements (shifters, warforged, artificers, etc) can easily be translated into Microlite20...

    Just a friendly reminder - IE Sucks.

    Frames are still useful today for certain ajax uses.

    ENWorld Gameday Minneapolis/St. Paul - any interest?

    Okay. So far, the following people have expressed interest: sjmiller mcrow morgul97 masshysteria Firevalkyrie resistor Should I sign you all up for the Microlite20 game? Alternatively, is anyone else interested in running something? It would be nice to have two events available; I'm hopeful...

    Just a friendly reminder - IE Sucks.

    Well, more than one year, anyway. I was using it back when they called it Phoenix, and it was definitely usable. Despite there being a few sites that didn't behave properly when viewed in Phoenix, it was usable long before they renamed it Firebird. Internet Explorer 6: August 2001 Mozilla...

    D&D 4E Anyone know a Pro-4e site?

    Nay! Nay, I say! Hmm. Wait, no, that's not right. Elephants trumpet, horses neigh. That one always gets me :P

    ENWorld Gameday Minneapolis/St. Paul - any interest?

    @ mcrow: Saturdays are less convenient for me, so I'd really like to stick with a Sunday. @ Primitive Screwhead: I'll check with the fine folks at the Source to see about the 27th. When I reserved tables, I wrote "20th or 27th", and they called me back saying "We have you signed up for the...

    Are you tired of being told you hate 4E?

    I couldn't vote in this poll; there's no option for "I'm a 4e skeptic, but people haven't been telling me I'm a 4e-hater."

    Charging

    Yes, I think: Enemy charges you, then you take your readied attack, then they step out of a threatened square to 'finish' their charge, and you get an AoO before they finally attack you. HOWEVER, their charge may be stopped in its tracks by your readied attack, in which case the AoO wouldn't...

    ENWorld Gameday Minneapolis/St. Paul - any interest?

    @ Winterhelt: The Source is only open from noon to six on Sundays, so we can't really have a morning time slot unless we host it elsewhere. @ Piratecat: When I played a Round Robin game at Gencon, we just created characters on the fly in the first half hour of the game. It worked pretty...

    ENWorld Gameday Minneapolis/St. Paul - any interest?

    For me, the Source is the better location, so I went and talked to them about hosting a gameday on either Sunday, April 20, starting at 12:30pm. Since the Source is open from noon to 6pm on Sundays, we'll only have one timeslot. Now we just need some people to come and some events to play!

    New Microlite20 thread

    I've started running a casual Microlite20 game on IRC. So far, we've managed to have six encounters between two sessions without a single round of combat. It seems slow, but IRC gaming ALWAYS seems slow :) I'm thinking I'll really notice the speed of Microlite once a combat starts - those...

    How did you get your Wii?

    Mine was a Christmas present. I felt like a five-year-old again when I realized what I was opening :D
