    D&D 4E WotC, DDI, 4E, and Hasbro: Some History

    WotC has the computer game licence again. I wonder what they can do with that.

    Info/help on the Star Wars Saga RPG?

    Are you talking about saga edition? There have been a few versions. I'm running Dawn of Defiance for Saga edition at the moment. It is a pretty smooth system, similar to 3e/4e DND.

    Rejection for DDI article isn't so bad

    Yeah, I agree. Bioshock being a very notable exception. On my playthrough I had to save all those little sisters.

    Rejection for DDI article isn't so bad

    I didn't think it was too vile, but he is a villain. it involved a threat to a child that he had kidnapped, one that the PCs would hopefully save. It was a minor point I think, as it could have been changed to an adult easily enough, and not the main reason for the rejection anyway. The code...

    My Red Box experience [looooong]

    Excellent. Great players, great DMing. Excellent. Extra kudos to that not-so-good wizard. :D.

    Rejection for DDI article isn't so bad

    I got my rejection last night (well daytime in the US I suppose) while I was falling asleep drunk on the sofa. Some very useful feedback (thanks Chris). I think I'll have to do more research on previous articles published on DDI and more time polishing the submission (damn you typos). Has...

    Warhammer FP:Rule differences between 1st and 2nd edition

    I finally decided to give up trying to get a reasonably priced 2nd edition copy of Warhammer FP and now have a second hand 1st edition copy on it's way. I know there were lots of rule tweaks between editions and was wondering what changes people would suggest I import. Changing the XP...

    Rejection for DDI article isn't so bad

    That's funny. I was just thinking about something similar yesterday. Paragon+ characters vs armies of mooks. Clouds of arrows as a Hazard, swarms of soldiers. House rules for multiple attacks against groups more than 5 levels lower than yourself, similar to the old 1e/2e rule for high level...

    Legends and Lore - Nod To Realism

    We used to change the term for odd creatures that were "blooded". That skeleton would have been Deboned.. :D Same with the powers, we would alter the in game fiction to suit the situation, if needed. So mind blast would interfere with what ever magical control mechanism, animated the skeleton...

    Rejection for DDI article isn't so bad

    Not too long to wait I suppose. My own fault for dilly dallying. Getting a personalised rejection letter from Chris Perkins really got me motivated to at least try a submission. I'm nearly more excited to get the feedback :D.

    Rejection for DDI article isn't so bad

    All over the map really. I suppose you can't read much into the delay. Who knows what pile your submission is in.

    Rejection for DDI article isn't so bad

    Has anyone sent in any last minute submissions? I sent a couple on the last day of the window. Still haven't heard anything. I suppose with the Christmas holidays coming I may not see a reply until well into the new year. Just curious to see if anyone has submitted around the same time as me...

    Dungeon Mapp 1.2

    Cool. I'm going to see if it will help with my Star Wars game. If so, definite buy. Not sure if it possible, but it would be great if you could import high res jpgs and connect them to a grid.I use the ipad at the moment to show the maps to my players. Although we keep things fuzzy and dont...

    Dungeon Mapp 1.2

    Interesting app. Is there a youttube video of it working? So I can see I'd used it in my games. Unfortunately it's a euro or two out of impulse territory for me. Can you upload pictures to use as maps or do you created them in the app? I have maps from the Dawn of Defiance adventures I could...

    Should strong players have an advantage?

    In my mind it would only be cheating if there was some competitive angle to the game. I suppose you could play it that way, but if this person's extra charisma is contributing to everyone's experience then that's a net gain in fun for everyone. It can also spur on other people and gets everyone...

    I raced a slug to ENW...

    There was a guy on one of the previous threads on meta here that did posted some test results and said the text was delivered very quickly, but it was the images that held everything up. I think he said he was a web designer. It was from last year sometime.

    Legends and Lore - What Can You Do?

    I want very little from 5e, but this is one thing they need to do. Mix with this the combining of powers by power source. I want to run some combats on the mat and others by the narrative. It should be easier to do both play styles. But the 4e combat core and action economy is very nice. I...
