    It's not a fun deal for the troops either.

    Running the game without a map

    Thanks for the advice all! Though if you don't like the idea of the driver playing, I guess I better not tell you about my plans for Twister....

    Running the game without a map

    Let's assume your group is on a road trip in a standard sedan. Character sheets can be referenced, but only briefly (especially for the driver), Looking up stuff in books is OK, rolling dice is OK, but there's no map or table. Suggestions?

    Fortunately, RL has made it possible to attend this awesome-sounding event. Please add me to the list if a seat has been made available. I'm looking forward to having fun with everyone! :)

    Players don't provide wish lists... What would you do?

    * inherent bonuses as mentioned above * the "blessings" that I think are in the 4e DMG2. * Instead of standard reward, have the incentive be that a legendary blacksmith will upgrade some of their gear. Just have the dude increase the base bonuses, because those aren't very "sexy" and...

    Aeon (updated 10/9/14)

    I did some poking around but was unable to find the condensed pages of this story and the ones leading up to it. I know they exist, but where? Unfortunately, with all realities being equal and no absolutes to form the universe, the collected works may well be the object of worship by a...

    Dresden Files RPG possibly available at Origins?

    It's posts like that which make me wish we could +rep on ENWorld.

    [Penny Arcade] Do you use "Magic!" too much or not enough?

    Comic strip for context: http://art.penny-arcade.com/photos/700674603_mAVrc-L.jpg I put far too much time into thinking about this kind of thing than I really should. On the one hand, verisimilitude helps build the setting of the story and that adds to the player's immersion. On the other...

    Dresden Files RPG possibly available at Origins?

    That wouldn't surprise me either. I've got inside sources, too. I had a great dinner conversation with one of the authors the other day. He was telling me all kinds of groovy things about the book and all the attention to detail they were putting in. He got me so excited about the RPG, I...

    Saturday Night Dinner

    Kudos to me for waiting until the last day to ask this: but what time are the reservations? I keep re-reading this thread and I can't find it. Edit: Ah! 8pm. Found the answer hiding in another thread.

    Thank You

    Good luck, Scott. I've appreciated your involvement in the community. Now, wear a suit and get a haircut you hippie! Oh ... um ... never mind about that suit and haircut then.

    Primal Power new builds spoiled on RPG.net

    Yeah, everyone leaves the room when I break wind too.

    More Sigil to come

    I think the 4e cosmology is more Planescape-friendly, especially with the Astral Sea providing more variety of ways to wander the planes and . Alignments aren't as strongly typed, but that could mean more focus on the factions. 2e had that, but then they introduced the Factol Wars and suddenly...

    DM'ing questions

    I think that's a great idea. This is a group new to 4e. One of the reasons I wanted to do things this way is so that we could stumble around with the combat system and it wouldn't matter because the "prelude" characters were doomed anyway. I had originally thought about a group of level 8...

    DM'ing questions

    I've DMd 1e,2e, and 3e. After buying the DMG2, I want to try 4e. 1) How many encounters should I plan for a 6 hour game session? I am fully aware not all groups go at the same pace. 2) I want to have a sort of "running the gauntlet" series of encounters. The DMG2 give advice on how to...

    Game Mechanics small start versus all in

    My players like all the options. As a DM I've always felt that the PHB & DMG were a collection of what's potentially out there but not necessarily available. That's how I kept spells rare or unique in 1e/2e ... I just didn't have the scrolls available as treasure and NPCs didn't know it...
