    Hi, Do you think it would work with one GM and one player? I'm looking for something new to run for my wife. We're both fans of the books. Cheers Richard

    Spikes of the Manticore

    Hi, Does this power allow the ranger to make two attacks on the same target? The "one attack per attack" line under Attack has confused me and I think I may have ruled incorrectly that it can't be used in this way. Thanks Richard

    Thanks for the compliment! Having said that, although 4e is quite a different system as far as combat encounters go, the rest of the game runs exactly the same as earlier editions of D&D I've run, whether 1e, 2e or 3.x. I think we're all just enjoying exploring a new games system. If your...

    Good luck - let me know how it goes! The Golden Scimitars adventure is going pretty well so far but I'm now doing some thinking about the overall campaign plot and how to follow things up once this one is finished. As a reminder, the plot is this: Vrishabha, rakshasa lord and former rajah of...

    Short Old Quarter encounter 1. Two arcanists from the Esoteric Order of the Blue Lotus have an argument/magic pissing contest in the street. They are both a bit drunk and are demonstrating their respective powers to each other. • Himaghna is a vanara mantrika (sorcerer) – a monkey-like...

    Notes for a New Campaign City, Parsantium

    Yeah, I think that's the best thing to do. I'm probably going to use group stealth checks (as per DMG2?) after this first skill challenge. I ran the last full session of Wrath of the River King on Monday so I need to get working on this adventure for next week! Any encounter ideas? Cheers...
