    Confused about gold totals (4e)

    4ed has a known problem that character wealth depends on the level he started adventuring and on the size of the party, since DMG provides different ways to calculate wealth of new character at arbitrary level (3 magic items + money parcel) and wealth gained adventuring (treasure parcels)...

    Major Diaspora NPC question (Spoilers)

    Honestly, as cool this plot may be, I have troubles believing Obscurati would not realize that their founding member is hopping around in Flint RHC all the way till adventure 8. And likewise I doubt that they will have any problems abducting her as soon as they know it. Maybe she was trapped in...

    Custom Creature (Lurker)

    "3 squares in one of 8 directions" seems too arbitrary to me. Why not 2? How can it know the cardinal directions of the game grid? I'd introduce some system to the teleports, like "towards the attacker", "towards the weakest/bloodied person" or even "towards the nearest female" (if you can want...

    ZEITGEIST 1001 things PCs are totally allowed to do in Zeitgeist campaign

    Delft will have a word of advice for players... Thankfully, they didn't announce their affiliation with RHC, so it'll take some time for Kell to track them. Meanwhile I'm planning on Cippiano stepping in and pulling a small favor for the party as a mean of expressing his gratitude. My main...

    Ragman [spoilers]

    Thanks! Just checking that he's not a part of the plot later on. EDIT: btw, I decided that his name is caused by the fact that his victims are literally torn apart like a rag, I guess your initial reasoning was different.

    Skyseer - smugglers plot

    Smugglers provide another link to Gale, but more importantly this plot is a convenient excuse to meet with the Family. I guess if you're running a one-off, you can simplify the crimilal map of the city and remove Morgan Cippiano completely, with Kell providing support both to Gale and Creed.

    Ragman [spoilers]

    He seems to become a secondary focus of attention of two eladrin PCs, who decided to become ruthless vigilante, "the ones Flint deserves, not the ones it needs". Since they need only 4 hours for extended rest, they want to spend 2 extra hours every night chasing criminals...

    Ragman [spoilers]

    This isn't stated outright anywhere in the adventure, so I wanted to check the meaning of Ragman "The serial killer of Parity lake". Am I right that: a) Ragman as a whole is just a cover up for killings of Lorcan Kell gang? b) sigils under the bridges that cops attribute to him are actually part...

    ZEITGEIST 1001 things PCs are totally allowed to do in Zeitgeist campaign

    (numeration is off in the previous post) 36. Attacking Lorcan Kell in the middle of the Theatre of Scoundrels scene. 37. Surviving the ensuing fight with 25 thugs (with more arriving) with clever usage of psionics, "resist 10 all" power of Bloodcut armor, one big chandelier (say hello to Axe of...

    ZEITGEIST Zeitgeist Softcover Compilation?

    BTW, speaking of Kickstarter, what's the general stance on which Kickstarter results are available to backers only and which will be released for subscribers (or buyers through RPGnow) or maybe will be available for separate purchase? I've learned of Zeitgeist well after Kickstarter ended...

    ZEITGEIST MAPS - The Biggest (and Best) Problem with Zeitgeist

    Perhaps I'm blessed with especially thin hands =) But I've used projection whiteboards for some time and I didn't have any problems.

    ZEITGEIST MAPS - The Biggest (and Best) Problem with Zeitgeist

    As I said, I've never actually tried this, but it sounds viable for me.

    ZEITGEIST MAPS - The Biggest (and Best) Problem with Zeitgeist

    The best option I've heard about, not actually tried, is projecting the map to a table surface, this combines best of the "printing" and "digital" worlds, but requires expensive projector... For now I'm using battlemaps and printed maps, usually not up to full scale. I'm not sure if there's a...

    ZEITGEIST 1001 things PCs are totally allowed to do in Zeitgeist campaign

    20. Planting a grenade in Dafton's pocket 'to give a plausible reason to arrest him' (how could I miss this one in the first post)

    ZEITGEIST ZEITGEIST in legacy character builder

    I've sent you a PM with some info about the program in question. Perhaps these exact materials should not, in fact, be stickied, despite being very useful both for players and DMs... Regarding other fan materials, some links are given in Resources section of the main web site, maybe a separate...

    ZEITGEIST 1001 things PCs are totally allowed to do in Zeitgeist campaign

    AKA "What is NOT considered derailing". Add your examples in comments. 1. Spending over an hour of real time detailing Royal/Fleet square security details 2. Immediately posting guards (PC, not allied minions) near dutchess room. And eavesdropping on her. 3. Rolling two successive natural 20 on...

    ZEITGEIST ZEITGEIST in legacy character builder

    Humongous thanks to the OP, this will help a lot. I wonder how many players of 4ed know about that little program-which-should-not-be-named... This .part seems to be based on original player's guide and not the expanded version (i.e. no theme powers apart from the 1st level), but I think I'll...

    B-Team Stats

    I'm not sure about which team, adventure or gaming system you mean, but in D&D 4ed general approach is that monsters/NPCs/mounts have 1 healing surge per tier (heroic/paragon/epic). I'm not sure where exactly it's written down, Rules Compendium comes to mind.

    Design Philosophy behind Steamsuit Pilot PP

    Can we actually hope to have "Extended Player's Guide ver. 1.1" at some point of time? Or maybe just a collection of such suggestions from developers of this campaign, maybe in the errata wiki section.
