    My Brawler Fighter and how fellow players complain

    Hmmm total idiot. I would hate to play in one of his games, probably... I think you should now build your character around using improvised weaponry. That should give you the Passive Aggressive Lv2 perk. ;)

    D&D 4E Is it me or are 4E modules just not...exciting?

    While on average the 90%* is probably right. I think different groups would use different parts of the "stuffing". So what to cut. And those little extras I'll use to had some extra to the scenes, even if I just tell the players outright after or whatever. Reading through encounter after...

    Legends & Lore: Skills

    See Starwars Saga Edition for why this is not a good idea.

    D&D 4E Is it me or are 4E modules just not...exciting?

    Yeah the horned hold was pretty good too. I had a disgruntled Duergar drinking at that half-orc's tavern in the SPH. The Lads solved a little problem for him and he left the main gate open and drugged the Orc guards. The hold itself had a lot of potential. If I ran it again I'd have the...

    D&D 4E Is it me or are 4E modules just not...exciting?

    I agree, I found that dungeon quite dynamic. My guys found a secret passage from the kitchen into the main room*. I also put a beholder in there in a secret tube under the main alter. It is the chamber of eyes after all. This was one of the best dungeons. in the adventure when I ran it. It is...

    How do you make Liches interesting?

    I agree. I'd use the lich "monster" stats as a template and work from there. I do really wish that the Monster Builder would allow me to make NPCs by dropping in PC powers, use monster templates and monster themes. It really could be a fantastic app for making very detailed NPCs. But ho hum...

    P2 - Demon Queen's Enclave - so this is the best WotC module, really?!

    I agree, I think as a setting H2 pips P1 to the post. However as an adventure P1 (and P2) pips H2. The adventure in H2 is totally inconsistent and terribly constructed and nearly impossible to run with any kind of story making sense. It is a crying shame, it cool have been a cracking adventure...

    Which edition change changed the game the most?

    Definitely 3e changed the direction of the game the most.

    Why did you stop subscribing to DDI?

    I'm running SWSE at the moment and I wasn't that trilled with the Dungeon/Dragon stuff and since I didn't have a need for the tools I unsubbed. Money is a bit tight this year also. I might sub up again after the summer, depending on what game I run - maybe a savage tide conversion.

    Firefox says EN World is an attack site?

    Bingo, showing up in stop badware StopBadware - enworld.org Maybe the recent spate of ant-wotc ill feeling and badness has coalesce into something malevolent, something that's lurking in the forum and now tries to spread itself via your browser.

    Star wars - which version?

    Hey, just started running a Star Wars campaign (Dawn of Defiance) myself, firsttimer here. I sourced Saga books from amazon.co.uk and bookdepository.co.uk. I bought the original booj and the Force Unleashed at decent prices. We are having a blast(hehe) so far. Character creation is straight...

    Dungeon Crawl Classics RPG from Goodman Games

    The 4e DCC seemed to have stopped coming this year 2010. Thats a shame. Although I always though they should have published adventures for both 3e (PF compatoible) and 4e. In fact DCCs and the new essential classes go hand in hand I think.

    How I would take the Rules Cyclopedia to (new) School

    My own mental thinkering on weapons: On shields: Using those rules above I would then take the Weapon Categories from 4e and assigning some of the cooler weapon properties from 4e to them. So maybe axes become High Crit weapons to a proficient character, with the additional of the Brutal...

    First-time DM--Where Do I Start???

    Okay, here's my 2cm: Keep It Simple Stupid: As a first time DM you're going to have a lot of balls in the air, so keep that in mind when designing your encounters and adventure as a whole. Keep It Focused: It is tempting to have these big rambling byzantine plots and setting and details. But...

    First 4E video game to appear 2011.

    Isn't there a lawsuit by Hasbro against Atari - something about them wanting to pull the licence? No mix. Either it is a mistake or Atari have left the reservation...

    Dungeons & Dragons #2 out today!

    I'm having trouble sourcing it here. I'd rather a paper copy sent to me - I'm not trawling through comic shops looking for it. Anywhere to buy online that will ship cheaply to Ireland?
