    If anyone still has an invite to spare, I'm really looking to and play with Wave develop widgets for my group. I've requested on from Google, but nothing yet. Thanks if you can help me out. spuppett at gmail dot com

    Imprisoning the PCs

    I think that if you can get your players to buy in, go for it. Playing through a senerio where there is only one outcome and that outcome is player defeat is dreadful. As a player I would be much happier to go along with the 'Okay guys, here's what's going to happen'. Since you're asking...

    Primal Power Excerpt - Stonefire Rager

    I've noticed that a lot of stuff lately (as in Resilience of Stone) has had a 'roll a d20. On a 10 or higher, do something' rather then just 'make a saving throw' Are the two different? Should you not allow save modifiers to these rolls?

    Scale of war synopsis??

    We're playing through it right now and having a pretty good time. What we're doing though is rotating DMs at each 'modual'. I started so I didn't really have any gaps to fill in, though the current DM, running The Shadow Rift of Umberforge, said he had to reorganize some things due to either...

    Tell me about your favorite game store

    I like this one too. I have one a bit closer to me in the Quad Cities, and I do go to it a bit more, but Critical Hit Games is a lot cleaner.

    CS response to Dying Condition question

    I like that infocynic. I'll probably play it that way too, though it hasn't come up too often.

    Save that ends the effect

    How is changing it to 15 keep them from rolling 20s? Just 'cause they're good, I wouldn't change the game.

    D&D 3E/3.5 Converting old 3.5 module to 4e

    I think I like that. I'll run with that and see how it plays out. Interestingly enough, that comes out to +7 (+5 for DC - 10 + 1/2 level(lvl4))

    D&D 3E/3.5 Converting old 3.5 module to 4e

    vic - Yeah, it is. I bought a pack a long time ago that strung 3 DCCs together into a campaign for lvl 1 - 10. I never got a chance to run it, so I thought I would now. cardinal - 3.5 says DC 15 Save Vs. Reflex, but +15 Vs. Ref seems kind of out of line, especially for lvl 3-4 PCs. Cryptos -...

    D&D 3E/3.5 Converting old 3.5 module to 4e

    I've got this black dragon (lvl4) fight coming up soon and he's started to rot from the inside out. Now in the module it says anyone who makes a melee attack must make a Fort save (DC 15) or take some acid splatter dmg, lets say 1d6+4 from pg. 42. What I'm wondering is what does that Fort...

    New DDI aps

    Not impressive, but helpful. YMMV of course.

    Is it fun??

    I'm actually using a pre-made adventure and this comes up as a 'what if'. I know the likely hood of it happening is small, but it sounded kinda cool, but also could be a bit of a let down/ WTF was that moment. Nothing in the adventure hinges on this happening. I have a few 'exrta encounters'...

    Is it fun??

    I hope this is the right spot to post this. I'm thinking of running a little scenario in our campaign (4E), where if all the PCs miss a saving throw, an encounter starts. It turns out after 2d4 rounds, they realize it was a hallucination. Any dailies, arrows, potions, etc. they used are now...

    D&D 4E 4E Sleep Question

    Thats how I ruled it.

    D&D 4E My take on 4E Stealth

    Perhaps the general rule is/should be: Allies can grant cover. And the exception is/should be: Unless they are smaller

    What happens with reliable multi-target powers?

    I agree. If you hit at least 1, then you've hit and used your power.

    Mechanical effects of alignment

    ...And good riddance I say. I know that at least for my campaigns alignment has been strictly fluff. We dealt with evil people, motives, etc., but there was never a need, for us any way, to codify alignment.

    Friggen Laser Beams

    You're not supposed to come up with appropriate special effects, but if the ones supplied don't suit you, change 'em. Wizards can't be expected to cater to everyone, at some point they have to make a decision, right or wrong especially with something as rules agnostics as the way a blast of...

    How many players is Keep on the Shadowfell designed for?

    It's not really a new problem, you still had make adjustments in old moduals, though now it sounds a lot more stream-lined.

    DMG Excerpt: Customizing Monsters

    I don't know. That seems like something that 'Ask Wizards' or something in that vein is for. If you need to know right now, make it up, then get an 'official' reading when the session is over.
