After just over a year-long hiatus, my small group of players and I have resumed play of our long-running 4e epic campaign. We started this campaign just after the release of 4e, and it was at the time our "playtest" campaign -- as in "let's play this new edition and see if we like it." After...

I am DMing a long-running campaign that has made it into the epic tier. After making it to 25th level, the group took a break from playing that campaign, including recently playing a bit of Dungeon World. During those Dungeon World sessions, we introduced a new player to the group (and...

The article is here. Included is some confirmation about ability scores, the paladin class, and guidelines for applying a modifier or giving advantage/disadvantage. Discuss at your leisure. :)

A discussion of the bounded accuracy design move is up by Rodney Thompson. Here is the link: Dungeons & Dragons Roleplaying Game Official Home Page - Article (Bounded Accuracy). I liked the article. Discuss, if you please.

It talks about the DM Packet of the playtest materials. Here is the obligatory link.

It looks pretty good to me. It's up at this link. Creative use of themes for werebears, -rats, and -wolves.

Hello, and thanks in advance for reading and providing insights. I am looking at a combination of abilities and want some views on how you think they should interact. Here are the relevant parts of the abilities: First, the paragon path's action point ability... And second, the effect of the...

Compiled by Chris Perkins, it's an interesting trivia (and spelling for our strange words) refresher for those of us with a long history with the game, or those who have looked into the history, anyway. Here is the link.

The article link was broken when I tried to follow it, but this bit from the intro is nice to see. Edit: Oh, and the link to the article's intro page.

Found it here. I like that R&D is looking into rituals, as they are one of my favorite parts of the game. Sorry to say they can't pin down a solution that they like, though. The other questions were "meh" to me. Discuss, if you'd like.

I didn't see a thread for this, so here is a link. This is something I believe people had asked for. It makes me happy that we are getting it. :)

Dungeons & Dragons Roleplaying Game Official Home Page - Article (Monster Quiz) Refresh, too, as there are more than the 20 there (though with a lot of overlap). I tended towards 20/20, but a few in the mix tripped me up. I don't know if it's behind the pay wall (edit: It is not.), but it was...

Over at the DnD website, they have announced the class compendium book. Dungeons & Dragons Roleplaying Game Official Home Page - Article (October News) There is more, but here is a line from the brief release information: ...Class Compendium: Heroes of Sword and Spell. This product compiles...

I am loving the new Ritually Speaking article ( Ritually Speaking DDI Article ) over at Wizard's. They are all rituals that have no component cost; they just use a magic item as their focus. There are things life "Self-Holding Bag" that lets you fold a Bag of Holding into itself for easy...

I was playing around with the encounter builder tool on D&D Insider, throwing together some encounters for a game Sunday, when I noticed a listing for an Animated Statue (Level 2 Elite Brute). It fits my encounter pretty well, so I'd like to use it. There is one problem, though: I don't know...

I have some low-level PCs that are playing through "The Forgotten Forge" from the Eberron Campaign Setting. One of the first encounters in part three of the adventure is a CR 2 swarm of beetles (diminutive Vermin). I know that swarms of fine or diminutive creatures (like this swarm) are immune...
