Thanks! I spent a long time thinking about what a sweeping compromise proposal would look like. I made a spreadsheet of planes and aspects and went through everything with the information I had at the time (since obviously act 3 hadn't been written yet!) to try and make it as internally...

I could also really use the link to this. With 4E DDI going away, I'm working on migrating my stuff and my players' stuff, and having even a subset of the Zeitgeist content would be a big help.

That's cool. Pemberton is one of the reasons they're dead - the lethal damage to both of them was dealt by his duplicant exploding during the battle, although Viveen had been using her minors to sustain a buff zone rather than healing either herself or Murdok, and that would have kept them both...

OK, no willy nilly resurrection, but it does seem like they almost have the pieces. - The bodies were retrieved and stored in the absurdist web before shifting back to the material plane by removing Ob amulets. - Reginald is a spirit medium so he can communicate with and thereby locate their...

They took down Vicemi, with Macbannin sacrificing himself to prevent the rez, but Viveen and Murdok both died. Time to figure out if resurrection is a thing.

I'm back! No recap quite yet, but we're on our annual 1 week drinking / D&D / boardgaming vacation and doing the final sequence in Schism. They recruited Macbannin and he gave them intel on Vicemi, so when everyone convened for the "preliminary" vote they dropped in and kicked the party off...

All of them. It's the same group and all of the same characters. Rock and Murdok are even still married!

I knew I'd abandoned this thread, but I didn't realize I never even posted an account of Rock Rackus and the Ruby Rod of R'lyeh! Dang. I'm pretty sure I wrote one, so I'll dig it up and add it to this thread. We're still going, although we had a few major slowdowns over the years with people...

Congrats on doing the conversion and on finishing your run! My group is finally on Schism after 5+ years so I think we're going to take a bit longer than you did.

Awesome! My players were intrigued by Rock, and made some effort to convince him to be a force for good after talking to him in prison. They weren't sure if they'd succeeded until I assumed the role of Rock in one of our sessions and sang this little tune... (lyrics here) Later, during a...

Your group has passed mine! Yet another thread I can mine for nefarious purposes. :D Very interesting reading. My group is about to do the Pardwight scene - my thread is a little behind. We'll see how it goes!

I must spread some XP around before XPing you again, so I'll just say: pretty much this. It amazes me how they managed to take such a clean rules framework and build such a fiddly game around it. It could have been spectacular.

Using the MM3 Lolth who automatically dominates everyone who hits her? I'm surprised it was such a cakewalk -- MM3 and newer, even tougher solos are what I was thinking of in terms of creating set piece "boss battles" in 4E epic tier. Sadly Quinn Murphy's At-Will blog has disappeared from the...

I'll say this as well: I think from a monster/encounter design perspective, 4E at epic tier offers a lot of, well, epicness. Most published adventures don't take advantage of it, but RangerWickett and all of the adventure authors so far have shown a willingness to design crazy setpiece battles...

Both ships were impounded in my game, and Risur kept the Grifoni, since it was an unlicensed/unsanctioned vessel. It actually became the PCs' ship, which they thought was fitting since they were very pleased with themselves for having captured it from a ship that had no guns (the Impossible).
