    GenCon Pub Night Tuesday

    I'll have been up since about 6am UK time, so I'll be pretty tired and probably slightly spaced out but I'll try and make it along with Crothian. I'm not actually sure where the RAM is but I'm sure I can find it. :)

    So who's going to Gen Con?

    I will be coming over from the UK to be there. Doing True Dungeon for the first time.

    Role/Roll Playing

    I play RPGs to have fun, first and foremost. I do not understand why you think playing a statistically weak character makes you more of a man than someone else. Or why you have apply a label to this decision. Lastly, I simply do not see "rollplayer vs roleplayer" as an either/or choice. I...

    2011 ENnies Booth Volunteer Recruitment!

    Excellent, I have someone to staff the booth with! And we'll be handing over to the Fickle's, so that's good too.

    Sagiro's Story Hour: The FINAL Adventures of Abernathy's Company (FINISHED 7/3/14)

    Best Villain Ever PLUS Best Villain Death Ever! Wonderful stuff, and a great reminder to keep your character sheet up to date. You never know what's going to come in useful.

    [Thur 2pm-6pm] GenCon Noobies Game

    I really enjoyed the Winter Witch game last year at my first GenCon, and although I won't be signing up for this again this year (to leave space for those actually attending for the first time) I recommend that other people do!

    Achievements?

    I am reminded of Achievement Unlocked | Armor Games. Awesome little online game. I wonder if I have any achievements?

    Top 10 reasons every gamer should live in England

    It's also worth noticing that www.ukroleplayers.co.uk is not bad for convention listings and talk. Like Morrus, I've never been that fussed about having a local games shop. The regular conventions (the more I go to the more I find out about!) and the fact I have a lot of gaming friends means I...

    QFT. Thank you, Sep, for all the years of work you and your players have put into the game.

    D&D 4E Running player commentary on PCat's 4E Campaign - Paragon Tier

    Count me as another one of the "too many conditional modifiers at high level" crowd. I also follow the route of trying to avoid those kinds of feats and powers in favour of static bonuses. That said, having a 16th level Barbarian with about 4 things that trigger off "Reduce an enemy to 0hp" is...

    D&D 4E Running player commentary on PCat's 4E Campaign - Paragon Tier

    I was playing today in a game that's just seen us game at 15th level for the first time - dear holy shoot we pile out a lot of damage fast. This group, for four strikers, is just going to go crazy, and soon. Really looking to continuing to read this thread - with an ongoing story like this you...

    D&D 4E Running player commentary on PCat's 4E Campaign - Heroic tier (finished)

    QFT. There is a small part of me that feels like was a TV that got cancelled just before they finally finished it. :) Piratecat, you realise this makes you the Joss Whedon of ENworld, right?

    247 sessions, 15 years!

    I'm not allowed to give Sagiro XP again, unfortunately, otherwise I would but CONGRATULATIONS to him for an incredible GMing achievement! I'm not posting on ENworld so much now but Story Hours are one thing I'll always come back to. Sagiro's is THE story hour for me - amazing moments (the fight...

    D&D 4E Running player commentary on PCat's 4E Campaign - Heroic tier (finished)

    On the subject of encounters in 4e, last weekend I played a game and in about five hours of play we had two encounters. One was a very scary reskinned undead beholder (a creature "made entirely of eyes") that was a solo fight that nearly ended badly. Level appropriate, tense and difficult. The...

    Does 2e Skills and Powers count as a new version, for the purposes of this thread?

    What does your ENWorld name mean?

    I have nothing useful to contribute to this thread, sorry. I used to be called Tallarn on here, and that was taken from an old D&D character. I used the traditional "mashing syllables together until it sounds like it works" technique. About a year later I found out Games Workshop had also...

    Morrus gets married today!

    I am very much hoping to see you there - and maybe actually get a chance to game with you! I mean, I've talked to you, I've emailed you, I've had (some) beer with you... however, have so far largely failed to actually sit down and indulge in gaming with you. This must be rectified. :)

    Morrus stay out. Okay, fine, you can come in. Everyone else come in too.

    Just added ten of my finest English Pounds to the fund. Forgot to subscribe to the thread so had lost track of it!
