Just skimmed through it, mainly looking at what you did with the rules. Here are my first thoughts: WOW! As Darth Vader would say "Impressive, most impressive" I totally like your approach with archaic armor! I had so many headaches thinking about this and your solution is IMO brilliant...

Well, when I started to study Computer Science people said pretty similar things. They said "In 10 years computers will be as intelligent as a human". I had a good biology teacher at school and just thought "guys you have no idea how the human brain works" Well this was 1990. Then came 2000 and...

I have seen lots of people getting frustrated because they don't hit anything. I never have seen anybody got frustrated because he put a 20 in his primary stat. If you put your twelves wisely into the other stats you normally will be fine. Humans can pull off the 20 trick pretty easily because...

Well, a d12 heavy blade would be better, since it gives you +1 average damage for each die, which would improve damage with encounter and daily powers significantly.

Ah, ok... sorry, I was talking about the WotC boards, forgot that you can't search here... Well, you have to spend a feat for the Bastard Sword, and therefore it should be better than a weapon you can use without a feat. Some people recommended to create the Fullblade, which is a superior...

Uh, I really recommend skimming through some of the threads which are about this topic. From my POV to sum it up: Bastard Sword is a superior weapon and therefore rightfully better than a Greatsword. Some say, some two weapon powers only work with Greatsword, some say they also work with...

Yeah they have to do a superior two handed heavy blade or I will get mad and cry and... whatever :D

Half Elfs get all the cool feats that humans get, and with Action Surge and Human Perseverance they are definitely balanced. Tieflings are difficult, but they have powers which give them to hit bonuses which is pretty powerful in 4e.

As a side note: Since there is that argument about how bad wizards are on the WotC forums, I have just made a short analysis comparing AC to the weakest defense of a monster. I only did the first 152, but it seems that the average difference is about 4.4, which favors flexible casters over...

Well, it is impossible to create a rule to cover all possible situations. In that case you could rule that the chest exploded, with a some of its contents destroyed and a few surviving coins, but there is a case in the chest which survived. The case is locked, skill challenge continues. The...

Well we all had fun, and it was a low complexity challange. It did not take much time. For more complex tasks it is indeed important that every character can participate, though. What I wanted to illustrate is, that in a skill challenge, each roll should mean something. Depending on success...

Well, I would recommend everybody to read this on skill challenges. Skill challenges are not "roll this skill x times and don't fail y times" One example of a skill challenge we had last session: DM: "There is a chest on top of the pile of silver and gold pieces" P1: "I will look at the...

Better they answer any questions than none. And the only real issure currently with the rules is one broken power, and that's not so easy to fix.

Since distances are non euclidian on the 2D board, they also should be on the 3d board. A short, nice but sometimes pretty wrong way to estimate sqrt(sqr(a)+sqr(b)) is max(a,b)+min(a,b)/2.
