well, that was fast and exactly what I was looking for. I'll keep my method for a few more month and then visit Mr. Modenkainen.

I'm glad to see this thread - I'm looking for similar help/advice. I don't worry about the PC discussions. My feeling is that once they decide their general approach to enemies (kill, give to authorities, other), that is the approach they will usually use. Also, their internal discussions...

I teach ESL in Korea and play D&D in classes about 7 times a week. I've been less than inspired by 4e magic items so have usually created my own. For all magic items I give to the players, I create/print/laminate magic cards with Magic Card Set Editor. It's a great program and the cards look...

should I feel shame for not knowing what a vorpal sword is? I've heard the term (and "the vorpal network" of podcasts) and could easily look it up, but people need some mysteries in their lives.

I don't necessarily disagree with you. And I've been beating this horse myself - it wasn't a criticism of you or anyone of us. Moreso, it what was me commenting that everything has been said about this, multiple times. Which is what forums are for, I know. In fact, I'm not even saying we...

Just sayin'. And not saying it shouldn't be beaten, but....

The truth is, I would have done the same thing as you did as a player. As a DM, I would have done something different. As a bystander, I wish you would have done something different. It is clunky, but it makes for a great story. Which when I'm playing is less important than my capabilities...

Yep. :eek: I'm a professional DM. HA! :D I love saying that. :lol: While I'm a professional DM, this doesn't mean I'm a great DM as I'm still learning a lot and have only been doing it for a year. Ah, well, I like to say I'm a professional DM, but it might be more accurate to describe me...

Thanks jbear, b/c like you, I'm stuck at Gorilla Bear (lvl 8). Gorilla Bear? What a lousy waste of a monster. However, seeing that you are Jbear, a level 8 Gorilla Bear, I hope I haven't offended you.

Thought I should share info about the Notion Ink: adam tablet. It's been talked about a lot in tech circles, but is finally getting ready for release. notion ink: adam tablet It should be ready for pre-order later this month. It's much more powerful than the ipad, has a ton more features...

No one has heard any comment from WotC about adding houserule capability to the New CB, have they? I just find that odd and unfortunate.

Ah yes, I remember you now. You were a player in the infamous Korean prostitution calling card CSI-thread here on Enworld. I would love to find D&D books in Korea, but it seriously doubt that will happen.

I've already thought that through in the past couple hours, so that's good to know you agree with that potential plan. I've laid the groundwork for other powers behind the scenes though the building of temples on newly acquired land and sacrificing of villagers to other, darker powers that...

Don't know and I wonder if that sale would still be happening. But I bought this actual map box set for $6, which is almost free - and it comes with three thicker than standard double-sided maps.

I'm fascinated for several reasons. But first, I don't know of any gaming products in Korean. And for that matter, I didn't know there were any gaming products in English being sold in Korea. I used to live in Seoul but live in Ulsan now. Can you give me any info at all about the Seoul...

Cool. So if you want to try this site, send me a private msg and I'll have bookdepository send you the 10% off intro offer. Good deal for us both. :D

In hindsight, I'm fine with it except for my present unease of how to proceed. It certainly wasn't what I was planning. But I do want to allow more meaningful choices from my players, so this a solid step in the right direction. I did ask them very directly where they wanted to go earlier in...

Great advice and example BENINHB - thanks. They'll need to meet a contact before sailing to the island to give them some basic info which will allow them to brainstorm (and me to steal their ideas) more effectively.

Um, yeah. My excuse is I'm still new. And I didn't really think about it. And the kids I'm playing with have no idea. Yeah, I'm pretty humbled....

I have a couple of the map packs (GameMastery Map Pack: Lairs is excellent), but I take my maps with me when I DM so gluing them to foamcore doesn't work well for me. In general I've avoided most of these Map Packs b/c they are real tough to keep together in-play.
