Out in front of the house, the two haflings looked bemusedly at the swirling cloud of shadows, at each other and then shrug. They both fix Horto with a glare and as one scamper closer. Holding their daggers high they do a complex little duet, scampering in and out of the Fighter's space, their...

Even with the cover provided as the Hafling Thief dives behind the corner Charlie's star strikes true. It sinks deep into his leg and she hears him cry out in pain. You can't see him anymore but you still have a minor and a move action. Your turn too, since I don't think anything Charlie can do...

If we're looking at this from the perspective that everything in a given round is sorta happening all at once then this is fine. If we're looking at this from the more rigid perspective that stuff really does happen in order of initiative then Charlotte will need to move down the hall in the...

Just a reminder . . . In addition to healing words and other powers that allow others to spend healing surges, all characters have a standard action Second Wind that allows them to spend a healing surge. I believe Dwarves can use their second wind as a minor action. Also, a character can...

The suddenly conjured cloud of writhing shadows envelops the two Hafling Thieves, but they are nimbly able to avoid the clinging dimness. The painful burn in his chest still smoking, the Elven Archer takes several quick steps forward and shifts his aim to Ranver. He lets loose another arrow...

I'm assuming that Ranver's still AFC for now. Starting at battle joined on the previously quiet flank, Ranver moves closer to the Human Wizard and summons another arcing Lance of Faith. Even though the shadows cloaking the elf make him hard to see, the blinding arc of radiance strikes true...

The Dragonborn Paladin roars and runs down the stairs and towards the menacing Elven Archer. Your turn.

That is exactly what I had determined.

In 4E, moving diagonally from one square to another does not require any extra movement. So, with a move of six you could go horizontally 6, vertically six, diagonally 6 or horizontally 3 and then diagonally 3. Stairs are considered difficult terrain. This is my own rule, not a rule from the...

I have updated the OP in the IC and OOC threads to both have updated links to the web stuff. What else would be helpful that isn't there?

Chasing after the hafling thief, Charlie sees him dart to the left around a corner. From his footsteps, she can tell he's just barely out of sight. In desperation, Varilar chucks a dagger at the Elven Archer but his throw misses by just a hair's breadth. None the less, he can tell that the Elf...

The elven rogue shouts instructions at his compatriots and races up the porch towards the imperiled Wizard. He attempts a graceful one handed vault over the railing but misjudges the maneuver and lands squarely with one leg on either side of the wooden beam. Failed the initial acrobatics check...

I've found that in 4E, artillery are by far the nastiest monster roles outside of Elites, Leaders and Solos. Brutes really suck for the front line guys (especially if there's more than one) but artillery do as much damage as brutes, are tougher to get to and can pretty much menace whoever they...

Unless there are any complaints, I am going to only be keeping the large resolution map from now on. A little less work to do on my end, though it's not that much work to begin with.

With a screech the last guard drake falls to wooden floor of the porch in a gurgling heap. The thief in the darkness south of Zarathas shrieks, "NOOOO!!!" and rushes at Zarathas, slicing him with his dagger. He fixes Horto with a glare, then turns and nimbly flips himself over the railing to his...

The tiny star of steel whistles past the fleeing hafling, burying itself deep in the pitted plaster of the old building's walls. As for the elven archer, Charlotte can see him out of the corner of her eye. The string on his bow still thrums with the release of the arrow now buried in her...

The long missing Elf finally makes his appearance. He creeps past the window Charlotte's standing next to and pads down the alley. Grimly, he takes long and careful aim at the wizard standing near the mouth of the other alley. He let's the arrow fly and it streaks to its target, smacking the...

Now that we've been into combat for a while now, could everyone let me know which map-size they've been using? There are two, the 1666 pixel wide version (500KB) and the 800 pixel wide version (150KB). It'd be super keen if I only had to maintain one size and I noticed that in Firefox and...

Near death, the remaining guard drake lashes out wildly in the direction of Zarathas, its teeth snapping closed on empty air. Your turn! Sorry for the slow down over the last few days. Hopefully we can build up momentum again.
