So in looking at the grapple feat, the last line says: • Creatures that are one size larger than you don’t automatically succeed on checks to escape your grapple. Under combat and grappling, it says nothing about this. Under the condition it says nothing either. So, is it an omitted rule...

Awesome news!

So one player gets hit by a power that stuns until the end of monsters next turn. Since this is not a 'save ends' power, granting an immediate save to player by another player will not work? Is thier a way around these powers?

Two things on this. Since you still get the same amount of actions do powers like rain of steel enact for both bodies? Also if one is hit by stun, are both bodies affected?

I'll start by saying that I have never bought any product done by Monte Cook (exclusively). I have always felt, however, that he is creative and an innovator. It has been fun watching (with envy) his gaming career. What hooked me about Dungeonaday.com from the start is the concept...

This came up in last night session. Target is marked by fighter, pc2 moves past marked target provoking OA. Since an OA is an attack, the fighter gets to make an immediate interrupt against the OA? True or False?

Spell Specialization - The wizard can choose to specialize in a damage dealing spell. Damage dice are raised to the next higher die type. Spell Brutalization - The wizard can choose to specialize in a damage dealing spell. That spell is now brutal 1. So far the first one has played very well...

Here is one of the leader aura's that monsters can have in my campaign: Leader Aura aura 10; Any minion in the aura gains an (encounter) save versus damage. Also, as long as the leader is alive, all minions in aura get +4 to hit, +4 to armor class. Depending on how good the leader is changes...

I know I was really disappointed in how 4e 'fixed' the economy for all levels of D&D. They went to a totally gamist view on it to make it work. It destroyed my perception of a 'Fantasy' economy. I did not like it. Nor did my players. Looking at the Adventurer's Vault, especially alchemical...

We are developing and playing a version of 4e which we call 'bloody' D&D. Here is how it works. Old-Timers like myself will recognize a lot of it. :) All Characters roll 3d6 for stats 7 times, take the best 6. They apply racial bonuses to the stat. The following chart gives the character...

I saw a while back on the board where someone had made a cut and paste errata file for 4e. I cannot find that thread again. Can someone point me to it?

I am one of those nerds that really likes to have a good monetary system. I really liked Gary Gygax's system of equating prices to dollars, so everyone has a real world reference to what value they have. When I heard that 4e was going to have economics taken care of I almost had a masturbation...

This was discussed very recently here. I want a recap. This is my understanding: Saving throws are made vs. effects and conditions. Effects can have conditions which they apply. If an effect deals ongoing damage of a type, only the effect with the highest damage of that type applies. A...

What does PEACH stand for?

So we gamed last night. 10 players, all 1st and 2nd level. I had an encounter in mind that I thought might challenge the characters. A Hill Giant. Level 13, made it elite, against 10 characters should present a challenge, but not a lethal one. I presented the liar, the characters where in a...

Gaming session 'starts' at 7:00pm. Ends at 4:30am. Start of a 'new' homebrew campaign, set 200 years after the finish of the 'old' homebrew campaign (having lasted 4 years with 90% original player participation). 9 Steaks on the grill (plus 10 hamburgers), 8 new characters rolled up, 58...

Made this awhile ago. Figured I would post again after some slight revisions. Form Fillable to follow. Suggestions, Comments, or Criticism, let me know! Enjoy! http://www.4eplayer.com/download/4ECharacterRecordSheetv2.1.pdf

Last night we played KOTS. For myself and 1 other player, we had tried it once before with the lite rules and a made up scenario. For the rest (4 players), it was their first experience. They all liked it. The out of combat stuff played like we play any edition of D&D. It was fun, and due...

In anticipation of 4e coming out we have not played our regular campaign. Instead, we rolled up characters for Basic Fantasy (http://www.basicfantasy.org/main.html), the closest OGL vehicle to the D&D I started with. I must admit I have NEVER used the 3d6 method. I decided to try out it. I...

I just made another 4e retro style character sheet. This one is all on one sheet. Enjoy! I used Soutane and Soutane Bold for fonts if the fonts are wonky for you. You can download them for free here: http://www.fontyukle.com/listele.php?sayfa=59&harf=S Edit: Got done with a form fillable...
