    sandbox campaign - map size/scale?

    Sandbox I've been running a 4e hybrid sandbox game the last several months. At the players request, we chose our sandbox to be Skullport, in the Forgotten Realms. The players found it, and the unique characters they could develop in that realm compelling for storytelling. I broke the city...

    What adventure module defines D&D to you?

    To answer your initial question, my gut reaction is S4: Lost Caverns of Tsojcanth. This module captured, at a very early stage for me in my gaming experience, the best of "getting there" and "dungeon crawls" and mixed in a healthy dose of new and unique creatures; new, unique, and powerful...

    alternate 3E dual-classing idea...

    Lilaxe, based upon your initial assertion, I believe the existing dual classing capabilities of the game would work exactly as you describe. A dwarf fighter/cleric, with the only notable exception at 1st level, when they would be all fighter or all cleric, but with an approrpirate feat...

    4E, Ashen Crown, and Dungeon Crawls

    I agree completely with the reviewer's assertion about 4e. I've even gone so far as to introduce a number of "home-game" elements into my 4e campaign to speed things up. Here is an excerpt from my 4e blog here on ENWorld with regards to pacing in 4e: For more on the topic you can check out...

    Classic 1E Mods in 4E?

    I've done a few conversions for 4e. I love the classics. I ran Keep on the Borderlands for Origins 2008. I ran White Plume Mountain, Ravenloft, and Halls of the Fire Giant King for Origins 2009. I'd say my favorite of all of these was Ravenloft. That was SUCH a great module anyway, and it...

    Suggestion for compromise on Wizard's PDFs

    As I once heard a distinguished business person say in a speech, "When the horse is dead, dismount." I look forward to mining through all my back-catalog of 1e, 2e, 3e, and all my new 4e books and magazines for new and innovative materials through DDO someday in the near future! I can imagine...

    Maze spell: do you allow it?

    No spell of the level (16th) can do what this spell can do without a save. It is ignorantly potent against elite or solo high level BBEG's, which makes it inherently overpowered. Any spell in which the DM is FORCED to change their encounters to fit the new, expansive powers, something isn't...

    Would you listen to an official EN World podcast?

    Morrus Podcasts are cool. ENWorld needs to expand this aspect of community to include the best podcasts, and perhaps even interact with them. That is a win-win.

    How many of you have made your own RPG?

    Guilty I did a quasi-medieval fantasy rpg that was a mish mash of my favorite stuff from D&D, Hero, Stormbringer, and Rolemaster. I referred back to it for the 3e open call rpg world submission. I think I've got a sci-fi game in me somewhere, as well. Fun!

    Dynasties and Demagogues

    I'd be interested in a comparison between this and the Battle of Wits from Burning Wheel. I'm really interested in the mechanics that would drive kingdom building and the other side of the fantasy campaigns, and integrating this into the 1e, 3e, or 4e mechanics. I think this gap is...

    Pathfinder 1E Will Pathfinder be the fix?

    Barcode... IBTL? Hardly. Have faith, good man. So, do you have the itch? Is it scratched for you? Will Pathfinder scratch it? Do you have a game that scratches that itch for you, and how did you get there?
