I think its pretty safe to say either: a) No one at GF9 has any experience with 4e combat using miniatures (or any fantasy miniatures gaming, one could argue) or, b) Those persons who do were not involved in this project. I mean, this looks they have a prototype made and everything. I hope...

Hmm after looking at the contents of their first offering, I wonder how well thought out it is. Most of their counters are designed to sit adjacent to the miniature base. As those that use miniatures know, most fights involve a lot of melee and movement... and these counters will just get in...

I can see this happening... as it stands there is only one set being released this year, plus the Beholder set. Anecdotally, from other forums etc, it seems to take a lot of effort and time to plan/create a minaitures set. And from some more anecdotal information, the last few attempts haven't...

I am really jiving off of the bits released for the upcoming Planes Above. I also really liked the Primal Power stuff as well. It fills a nice niche IMO, being the forces between the gods and the primordials, creating a useful reason as to why the World hasn't been overwhelmed by Chaos or the...

"Ah, yes. Mayhaps this lamp isn't bright enough! Surely we can continue the Ritual someplace brighter, where we can make use of the brave and intrepid souls at The Hanged Man tavern. I hear many practitioner's of the Arcane and Divine frequent there!" Ferris feels like things are getting a...

I hit the currently have DDI and the survey ended... I thinks its specifically for people that don't have DDI and want it, but something is stopping them.

If we outside can make 2 checks per turn, could we also make 2 Aid Another checks? My Bluff and Intimidate are abyssmal.

Ferris, thinking furiously, tries to come up with a way to keep the guard from ringing the bell. I hope the other two follow my lead... "Ser Watchman, there is no time!! By the time the City Guards arrived we would be pools of blood and guts..." I hope thats what Onee do. "Luckily, I know a...

I tend to fall on the side of "As a DM I get to decide who plays in my game". It sounds control-freakish, but as a Dm I put a lot of extra time and effort for my games and since when we play it is at my house I don't feels its unreasonable to have that opinion. We have alternating DM's, so if...

Good advice. A few times we have watched a movie or played a neat little Hobbit/LotR boardgame and had a blast. (I would recommend the game if I could remember the name of it)

Weem!! You've....changed...why, I barely recognize you! New haircut? :D So as to not threadcrap, glad to hear you enjoyed yourself Votan. From other anecdotal evidence it seemed as if those running the 4e demos hadn't being doing a consistently great job in the past. I don't know if its 4e...

This thread had been approved by the CRTC.

Yeah... for as much as I wish my PHB's weren't errata-ridden, I understand that any game will have its revisions, and one as complex as D&D and tactically rich as 4e will have a lot. I am pleased that errata has made available, and that this errata'd information will be compiled in a less...

Bringing this info over from another thread: On Sunday night I kept track of the 2nd of 2 combats 5 players Chaladin, Cunning Rogue, InferLock, Laser Cleric, Assault SwordMage and an NPC Cleric who will only participate as a last resort. All 3rd Level... most Dailies have been used in the...

Lol, I'd love to see Bann-ur come charging out with ink smeared on his face and a mop on his head screaming "I'm a monster! Arrrrrr!". Oops, just noticed you have the +9 Bluff...we'd be better off supporting you. My bad. grumble...frackin' skill monkeys making me look bad ... grumble

We try to play every Sat...although because of a new player we are switching to Sun. We are all childless so we usually play between 3:30-11 ish (sometimes end earlier or later). A good hour or two is spent on socializing, character upkeep (3 neophytes to RPG's) and meal and smoke breaks. We...

I would also be curious as to how many rounds... On Sunday night I kept track of the 2nd of 2 combats 5 players Chaladin, Cunning Rogue, InferLock, Laser Cleric, and Ass SwordMage Only the Rogue is optimized (by me for a new player) but 4/5 players are new to 4e (3 are new to RPGs!) and are...

"Quickly, Ser Watchman, I hear the Onee hate the presence of bravely wielded steel, and surely your sword arm is trusty!" Ferris attempts to beckon the guard closer. What in the name of Dayna is an Onee? Nice save Luinnar! I think if we have to distract again, I suggest we go with Alnar's...

Nice idea, I like it! I experienced my frist major bit of grind last night in our weekly game. This is the first time we have had 5 players, and 3 are still kinda new to RPGs in general (this is their first campaign) and one is a bit rusty with 4e (been awhile since he played). But after a 2...
