I think metaplots are great and look at each one as great campaign outlines and opportunities to put my PCs in the heart of world-changing events. The only time they become troublesome is the risk of sidelining the PCs or railroading them along the pre-determined script. Wrath of the Immortals...

If I remember right, Paizo can sell the issues they currently have stock of and can sell pdfs of the rest (just like they're selling pdfs of older edition TSR stuff). For some reason, though, they can't sell pdfs of magazines the currently have on stock, so they have to wait until they run out...

But has WotC *said* anything about it? I don't know if describing something as being good business practice is any guarantee that WotC will follow. They might just as easily go the AOL route and just make cancellation so complicated that anyone who subscribes for a month will just stick around...

If anybody's interested in an update, here's what happened: My intent was to play light and show the kobold's as incompetent trap-setters. I was even looking forward to one of them trying to bullrush a PC into the 4' pit. What came across, though, was "this pit is obviously bait for another...

That and basic, human common sense. Like some, I miss the crafting and profession rules from 3.5 and will likely house rule something for them in my 4e campaign. Even without them, though, I trust a player or DM to be thinking being enough to decide whether someone has smithing skills or not.

Y'know, I never would have thought of this concept if I hadn't seen this thread. But now that you've planted the idea in me, I love it. Limiting divine casters exclusively to rituals feels very S&S novelly and could easily be explained away as a world with very distant and disinterested gods...

Brother, I'm right there beside you. As a big Scarred Lands fan, I was thrilled to see how closely the PoL fluff aligned with the backstory to Scarn. However, my version for 4th ed. will be a revision rather than a progressing timeline. This will allow me to not only find ways to introduce...

Wait, for reals? Teleporting and mind linking? For being otherwise really pro-4e, I've had the hardest time jiving the crunch of the paladin with the fluff of what I've always thought paladins were. It sounds like it's a larger problem than I'd feared. Is there any indication that these...

Good idea with Ninaran. I'll have to mull that over a bit and see if I can fit it in. My plan was to kick off that first encounter with a little levity and have the PCs come across a very poorly disguised pit trap in the road. When the characters stop to wonder why someone dug a 3' hole in...

levels? How many levels does this adventure cover? I understand the sample adventure in the Eberron campaign book doesn't quite take the party to second level, does this one pick up right where that left off or is there some adventuring that needs to happen in between. What level will the PCs...

I've really come to appreciate the .pdf format of the books available at RPGNow, being especially drawn to the cheap price tag connected to the old TSR stuff. I'm looking for any opinions about what some of the older gamers (you know who you are) think about the 2nd or even 1st edition AD&D...

chapter 2 It looks like it's going to be weekly updates for this story. Hope I finish before the release of D20 Trinity. By the way, I'm pretty new to the Story Hour format, so I'd appreciate whatever feedback you'd care to offer. Especially along lines of ideal post/chapter length and...

With Aberrant and Adventure! already converted to D20, I figure it won't be long before Trinity makes its appearance. Fans of the original game will remember the detailed world of the future presented in that game, as well as the convoluted metaplot that ran in the Darkness Revealed and Alien...
