Updated I updated the sheet to add a portrait area on page 2, and changed the Senses box a bit on page 1. I added colored rings to the AC, Initiative, and Speed bonuses on page 1 to correspond to those on page 2. There's no way that I know of for a user to input a graphic into an Acrobat...

At home, at the dining room table. We've hosted the games for years because my husband or I always GM, and we have all the stuff. Every now and then I'll play at a game store or convention.

The tokens would make it easy to run and track combats for that module. Personally I prefer pictures, but the numbers would help for clarity. Nice set, especially the recommended minis list at the end. Although there are some newer minis (such as guard drakes) that you didn't mention. Thanks...

I love your sheet Weem, and it addresses the very problem that caused me to try to design my own character sheet. People forget they have abilities, and don't use them when they should. There's no easy quick way to see them on the default sheets. In my case I made a Conditional Effects...

...and Darkness appears to refute any claims of brokenness, and allude to his fun party trick. :D

I haven't used Kate Monk's site, so I can't tell you what happened there. Hopefully it will come back up. For historical names, you could try SCA College of Arms - Education Articles, which has a variety of medieval and renaissance period names from different cultures.

Thanks for the index of rituals, it should be quite useful to have them in one place.

Except for the bonus to NADs at level 1, this is a fairly common house rule. My game uses the exact same adjustment. It is more common to grant a raise to three ability scores at the 4/8 levels (instead of the default two) in the house rules I've seen, including my own. I don't think yours...

Your system sounds very interesting and well thought out. I am running a War of the Burning Sky game, with a significant battle coming up in the next module. I will compare this system to the combat resolution rules provided in the module. I like the feel of yours, and may run it this way...

Welcome to ENWorld! If you are interested in coming up with builds that take maximum advantage of the rules, you might like the D&D Character Optimization section of the forums at Wizards. They really delve into it and come up with some unique and effective (sometimes broken!) character...

Yes, I have taken a look at the files in a text editor. I wasn't sure if it was pulling the information from the Compendium, or from an internal database, but the data is definitely not encoded in the output file. :( I'm not about to make something that would knowingly violate the GSL, so...

Thanks for the compliment! I tend to feel the same way, but removing them would be good if the goal is a more streamlined simple sheet, especially for new gamers, pregens for convention use, or kids. So I may do a version without them, but like you, I want to see where a given number came...

It wasn't so much a modification as made up from whole cloth. The Fire Forest module ended with them leaving the Forest, and Shelter From the Storm began with them entering Vidor at the edge of the swamp. There's a brief mention of the hundreds of miles of ground to traverse between the two...

For those of you running regular 4E games (weekly-ish for months on end), how many people in the group have DDI subscriptions? 2 (out of 7 people living in 4 separate households) How many of those people spend time behind the DM screen for the group? 1 How many are players only? 6 How many...

There are all sorts of magic cloth armor intended for casters, but they are rarely chosen because most casters take leather proficiency for the 2AC. This new feat lets you have the option of wearing cloth, still paying a feat, and having the same AC you would have with leather. I think it will...

Thanks for posting your notes on the travel upriver. I think I'll use some of that, although I will probably have the river freeze, as in the module. I had them traveling downriver via keelboat in the first place (keelboats are a good choice going downstream, but not up). I did my own...

Keeping in mind that I started before the official 4E version came out, I ended up removing Torrent altogether. The information was imparted by a different NPC who didn't go with them, with one of the players adding some more. I didn't want them to have 3 or 4 NPC's hanging out with the...

Posting here has caused me to reconsider adding Reliable to daily and encounter powers, thanks to all the comments. The problem with making everything reliable is having to then change Reliable powers to have some *other* benefit, and that can cause a chain reaction of changes that need to be...

.doc is a Word file. I have Word on my Mac, which I used to read the file. I believe that Pages will read .doc as well, but I don't have a current version of that installed.

I won't argue that the combination is against RAW, because it seems futile to do so. However I find it distateful to combine an item power with another item in that way. It's *different* than a wizard creating a flaming sphere, because it's an item making the zone. You use the item power of...
