    I need some beta-testers for an upcoming gaming resource...

    Just started it the first time. "Installation" was a no-brainer (just extract the archive into any directory - it now has a "permanent" place in my "4e" subdirectory of my "rpg" directory) Runs surprisingly fast and stable (.NET 3.5 is already installed due to the old "offline" tools from...

    I need some beta-testers for an upcoming gaming resource...

    Do you still need more testers? BTW: Any plans to also include "Monster Cards" from the Monster Builder or other sources?

    4e Power/Class Cards for Non-Character Builder stuff?

    Since the Character Builder still can't use houseruled stuff (or did they update it without me knowing?) has anyone made any own cards for the stuff that can't be done with the Builder? Things like: the paragon paths, the living blade, cards for "Song of the Forms" (and the other new powers), ...?

    D&D in Foreign Languages

    BECM (but not I IIRC) were translated into German as was every Edition of AD&D and 3.x (including the inofficial "3.75" Pathfinder ;) ), but only the 4e Core Books (PHB, DMG, MM) were translated ever before WotC didn't renew the contract with the German publisher (afaik WotC wanted to find...

    I don't know of Weems Fate Cards, but if you just need the complete text of the cards there's a Thread at WotC

    "You do your STR mod in damage" - add bonuses?

    Everything that adds to damage. Just remember that all instances that add to damage rolls won't add anything (unless specifically specified) as there's no damage roll.

    Any hints for running the 4e version?

    Thanks, that helps a lot. Other DMs who have already run it in 4e are still welcome to chime in. Another thing I noticed: Indomitability's Boon (via Death Boon) is granted "until it is used or until the end of the next extended rest" Is this intended? After the next extended rest there's...

    Any hints for running the 4e version?

    After almost 3 years of hiatus we might "continue" the War of the Burning Sky. Back in 2008 we played the 3.5 version untill adventure 5, which got horribly shortened due to the fact that the whole group wanted to start with 4e as soon as possible and we haven't touched any 3.x stuff in this...

    WotBS WotBS meets IH

    I was running Iron Heroes for a while before I started WotBS (3.5) and decided against using IH with it. While the special abilities of the IH classes can make up for the lack of magic items/spells from the PCs, WotBS is a REALLY magical setting. Almost everyone important (and certainly all of...

    WotBS 4E WotBS conversion discount?

    Strange... I can't find any trace of this download in my RPGNow account. I take it the discount was sent somewhen around march 27th this year?

    WotBS 4E WotBS conversion discount?

    When and how did the discount get to the subscribers? As a simple mail (then I'm sure I haven't got it anymore) or was it sent as a download file (then I'd like to know when that came so I don't have to check all my RPGNow orders/downloads) Thanks in advance.

    Can I retry Open Lock? (Also Take 10/20?)

    No. This houserule would disallow the use of Take 20 to open locks (because you can't use Take 20 with rolls that have negative effects if you fail). Besides... this houserule would also make lockpicks VERY brittle, as even a grandmaster lockpicker (Open locks +30) would break a lockpick for...

    WotBS Will WotBS be available after WotC pulls d20

    Section 6.1 of the current GSL (at http://www.wizards.com/d20/files/GSL_20080617.pdf ) states: " 6.1 OGL Product Conversion. If Licensee has entered into the “Open Gaming License version 1.0” with Wizards (“OGL”), and Licensee has previously published a product under the OGL (each an...

    WotBS Will WotBS be available after WotC pulls d20

    Wasn't there something in the GSL that forbid you to "update" OGL content to GSL and still keep the OGL product available?

    WotBS Will WotBS be available after WotC pulls d20

    The d20 license already expired but it should be easy to "rebrand" Burning Sky with just the OGL (if that hasn't already happened) But if the GSL shouldn't change till next year there won't be an OGL Burning Sky anyway because once the GSL version is out there can't be an OGL version out, too

    Tears of the Burning Sky: Firestorm

    The orb just clear the firestorm in the material world. The damage you take from the Burning Sky effect is due to the rip in the astral space that lets elemental fire bleed into it. Near the fortress the Dark Pyre also adds a connection to the negative plane into that, so you take both damage...

    Elven Accuracy

    Right... And luck may have it that the "1" the elf rerolled may surface as a "20" (as it has happened some times in our games)

    Found Spellbooks

    If you could just add spells to your spellbook then why do you have to buy a feat to get 3 spells instead of 2?

    Found Spellbooks

    Strictly speaking... you CAN add spells found in enemies' spellbooks into your own spellbook. It's called "retraining" and can be done each level. If you find a spell you like more than one of your own in an enemy's spellbook you can replace the spell on your next gain in level. Add MORE...
