Cool! How did the Hambly Farm encounter with the ghoul scarecrows (Pathfinder #2) go? If I run Scions of Punjar, I thought I'd switch the scarecrow golems in that adventure for the much scarier ghouls. Richard

Hi, I'm finding this power a bit confusing. The text for this power says: Spiritual Weapon Cleric Attack 5 Daily Conjuration, Divine, Implement Standard Action Ranged 10 Target: One creature Attack: Wisdom vs. AC Hit: 1d10 + Wisdom modifier damage. Effect: You conjure a weapon...

Hi, Sorry if there's already a thread on these. I bought the warlord set the other day and they look quite nice, but can you write on them with any kind of wet-erase/dry-erase pen? And what can you use to write on the blank ones? They seem a bit too shiny! Cheers Richard

Session #13 Hi, Here's what happened in Monday night's game which got the PCs to 4th level (mostly) and brought the second adventure, Witness!, to a close. Next, the PCs are going out of the city with Sreedhar to the forest ruins of Gopura, then on to Open Design's Wrath of the River King...

What a great idea! I didn't know Brian was a twit - signing up now. Richard

Hi, I've been playing since 1980 and wanted to say I love D&D too (all editions)! Richard

The Khanduq of the Nightingale's Song This location is somewhere the PCs might end up hanging out if they move to the Maker's Ward from Flotsam: A khanduq is an Akhrani-style bazaar on two levels situated around a courtyard, typically with a few private guards to keep out the riff-raff. The...

You'll have to let me know how it turns out! Coincidentally, on Monday night, when we played this at the London Gamers club, another group had just finished the whole Curse of the Crimson Throne that evening. One or two of them came over to ask how we were getting on and were a bit disappointed...

Good idea - the PCs will have a guide with them so he could mention this. Cheers Richard

Hi weem, Thanks for the suggestions! Richard

They should be level 4 by the time they attempt this. Richard

It's not hard to figure out the slightly different terminology (eg "bruised" for bloodied"). Certainly didn't make it any harder for me to run the adventure. Cheers Richard

Monkey Temple skill challenge Hi, I've posted a draft version of a skill challenge set in the Feyshore Forest ruins here. Any thoughts gratefully received! Cheers Richard

Hi, I've designed this skill challenge encounter as part of an adventure set in some Indian-themed forest ruins. It's based on the Urban Chase example in the DMG. Any suggestions on how to make this more fun would be appreciated! Also, how can I make sure a monkey manages to grab something in...

Session #12 The Old Fishery Hi, Here's what happened in Monday night's game. This part of the adventure used the map and description of the Old Fishery (part of the Curse of the Crimson Throne Adventure Path, Pathfinder #7). 19th Maius (contd) Ella and El’em go to Mangesh’s houseboat to see...

Excellent stuff! I also used the DMG 3.5 supplement when I started work on my city, Parsantium (see sig), and used some of its district labels on the city map to mark what each neighbourhood is like. Your notes include a lot of stuff I haven't done anything or much about - I spent a lot of...

Hi, We really enjoyed Sellswords of Punjar too. It's not perfect - the map is a little small for the tactical movement that happens in 4e combat - but it's great fun and easy to fit into a city campaign. There's also a cool underground river which I expanded. There are some Story Hour posts in...

The Maker's Ward Here's some notes on the Maker's Ward, adapted from the excellent FR accessory, Calimport: The Maker's Ward contains many of the skilled trade guilds and some of the newest khanduqs in the city. While not a socially prestigious address, Maker's Ward is home to many tradesmen...

Session #11 The Floating Head Latest session was on Monday: 18th Maius (contd) After listening at the door to Madame Zeboltha’s chamber, the PCs decide to see if they can attack from two flanks. Sharden and El’em head outside into the courtyard and climb the stairs. Unfortunately the dwarf is...

Session #10 Cutpurse Alley Hi, Here's what happened in last Monday night's game as the PCs continue to explore the ground floor of Orloch Scragmane's base in the slums (see Sellswords of Punjar): El’em and Sharden guard the entrance to Cutpurse Alley while the others move down towards the...
