I tend to go on RPG PDF binges, particularly at Christmas for whatever reason. But I've even scaled back on that after buying a ton of d20 content a few years back that I've for the most part barely touched since moving to 4E. Now, aside from ~1 4E book or box a year -- Shadowfell box last year...

I must spread XP around before I can XP you again, but I love the idea of running stuff out of chronological order at the table. Now I'm thinking of ways to incorporate that into my games...

Wow, that's really cool.

Last night was the battle against the bizarre psychic creatures called forth from Simon's wand. I didn't adjust anything, so it was a 1,250 XP encounter for 4 level 5 players -- making it just about level 7. It pushed them pretty much to the limit; the worm maw grabbed and mauled Vesta...

Awesome. :) We've slowed down enough that I'm not adding anything to the campaign, but I read your results and interludes with great interest all the same.

I hope this AP keeps getting recognition. I'm running the 4E version, and I love it and plug it all the time.

Ha! I had no idea Nock guns were a thing. I just assumed you named them and the goliath after yourself. :D

First Digging for Lies session tonight! Session Notes The PCs decided to go straight to the Expo, although since Reginald is a junkie who spends a lot of his stipend on drinkable/snortable consumables, I did give him a Streetwise check to recognize that the Expo and similar events tend to...

My PCs tonight: "The lesson from Macbannin's suicide is that we need to kill more suspects instead of arresting them!" :P

Phew! It's been a while since I posted. Things have been pretty ridiculous for me all summer, and it looks to continue through the fall, so we're squeezing in sessions wherever we can. We had one in July-August, and are starting Adventure 3 tonight! Session Notes The PCs arrived at Macbannin's...

Dang it, looks like the image links are only temporary! I don't think I saved it, I hope it's cached on my desktop browser. Edit: Yes indeed! Fixed the link above.

Since my Vekeshi Mystic PC advocated that Gale use non-lethal methods, I made this clipping for the end of adventure #2 :

I'm cautiously optimistic. Looking forward to seeing the playtest iteration of the mechanic.

Or not so shortly. Vacation followed by 12 consecutive work days, many of which were 12 hour stints. Ugh. Read through the clippings, and love them. My game reconvenes next week for Dying Skyseer wrap-up, so it will be a perfect time to introduce some of the clippings. I'm also going to do at...

I'm on vacation, but my PCs are just wrapping up Skyseer, so I'll be checking these out shortly. :)

Session Notes After confirming that Macbannin was still breathing, the constables took stock of their surroundings... and realized the exit was barred. Viveen headed for the exit, and looked out to see Leone Quital enjoying some fine wine and cheese. Quital informed her that he wanted the Doctor...

I have pretty reasonable players, but also, when they captured La Grifoni Grinyande, they actually turned it over to the RHC, so I expect them to continue doing that until they are no longer in the RHC's employ. If it gets to that point in Paragon or Epic, I doubt there would be any buyers for...

Session Notes A shadowy figure darted around a corner, and then Macbannin and two knife fighters emerged from the entrance. Murdok quickly charged up to engage the knife fighters, but Macbannin's abjuration aura made it tough to do much damage. The others retreated past one of the gates and...

May I suggest, if that comes about, that you consider using video chat instead of audio chat? I've found it makes a huge difference in RPGs. For me, it's Zeitgeist, hands down. The individual adventures so far are all extremely strong, on par with some of the best standalones out there. When...

I'm only speaking for the 4E versions, here. I've run 1.5 WotBS adventures and 1.9 Zeitgeist adventures, and have read or skimmed the rest of what's available for both. To me, reading through the adventures, there was clear development from WotBS to Zeitgeist (and within WotBS, for that...
