    Valorous Smite in 3-D

    Yes, I asked the same question of the WOTC boards. I just wanted to be sure and get more feedback; I was right to ask for more opinions, because the 7 x 7 x 4 volume observation came from these boards (that is what I meant because I was just including the volume above the paladin's head). Many...

    Valorous Smite in 3-D

    How do you apply the paladin power Valorous Smite in 3-D? The power description says: "Each enemy within 3 squares of you is subject to your divine sanction [...]". The second part of the power comes after a melee attack and affects each enemy within 3 squares of the paladin, but I cannot...

    D&D 4E Introducing 4eTurnTracker!

    Thanks for sharing the upcoming stuff and your vision. I really think that you should include PC powers as well, but likely it is easier to implement monsters first. After all, surges, HP, effects, and so on are just like powers. ;)

    D&D 4E Introducing 4eTurnTracker!

    Thanks. It looks great. What about powers tracking? I really think that is a missing key feature. :)

    D&D 4E Introducing 4eTurnTracker!

    Thanks for the new release. Later on I will provide additional feedback on layout and button position. B-) I really like the button dividers, but there is still something not working for me in their sequence and groups. :hmm: Generally, speaking what do you think of ribbon interface? Monster...

    D&D 4E Introducing 4eTurnTracker!

    This is the second message. If I have time I will prepare a mock-up of the user interface. However, I would do something like this: Group 1: Next Turn, Delay Turn, Ready Action, Jump In Group 2: Action (was Apply Effects), Show/Hide Creature Group 3: Step Back, Start/Stop Encounter, Step...

    D&D 4E Introducing 4eTurnTracker!

    I am posting two separate messages. This one is about initial feedback. Maybe it is too much detail, but I like to work this way. ;) 1) Action Point Counter. Action Point counter should work like other counters. At the moment, when you use an Action Point, the Action Point is added to 0. For...

    D&D 4E Introducing 4eTurnTracker!

    Yesterday I spent some time preparing (playing) the next encounters for my campaign. (Too many things happening at the table, the combat is still too slow. :-S) By the way, I used at the same time Combat Manager (CM) and Turn Tracker (TT) to simulate the game flow, thus I can provide additional...

    D&D 4E Introducing 4eTurnTracker!

    I use DnD4eCM to track initiative, but your tracker is really a good start and looks promising. :) First of all, I think you need import from Classic Character Builder and Adventure Tools, but these will come in due time. B-) Then, I really like the movable task panes and the fact that you can...

    DDI VT Beta thread

    Derek, thanks for the report. I have a couple of questions that remained without a reply on the WotC forum. 1) What about screen resolution? How would it look like on a net PC with 1024 x 600 screen resolution? 2) What about double monitors or projector? Is this feature supported? If those...

    Question about Sleep (Wizard Attack 1)

    As DM, while running the Kobold Hall final encounter, I missed three sleep saves in a row (it can happen when you let the dice fall where they may ;)). The outcome was like the final scene of Tarantino's Grindhouse, with the monster beaten by all the characters around it. It was pathetic and...

    Flanking around a corner

    Just to let you know, I got a confirmation email from Wizards Customer Service. You can be flanked even if you have Cover (+2 -2 = 0) and Combat Advantage is still applicable. :hmm:

    Question about Sleep (Wizard Attack 1)

    True, but in my opinion the name in this case is misleading for the casual reader or old editions players. Generally speaking it looks like there is no fixed rule for Keywords (or at least I was not able to find one). Some Keywords include two effect while others refer to only one. Please...

    Question about Sleep (Wizard Attack 1)

    I was referring to the name and Keyword of the spell. :-S I would skip this part of the explanation since you can be either if favor or against any likely explanation (magic vs. physics etc.) You cannot wake up simply because the saving throw rule has precedence over any other rules...

    Question about Sleep (Wizard Attack 1)

    Or sleep. ;) I have found it. :erm: There are two more rogue powers that cause the unconscious condition: knockout and garrote grip. In both powers, the "Hit" effect includes one additional save condition: "If the unconscious target takes any damage, it is no longer uncoscious." Thus, since...

    Square of Origin of a Close Blast

    I am sorry to object again. They blasts fill a square area in any case, since they are squares. Furthermore, "the origin square is not affected" by the blast is an exception to the rule because that square is filled by the area nonetheless (there is overlapping of two adjacent squares). Nowehere...

    Square of Origin of a Close Blast

    They are both square areas. They look like polygons, but I stated that I drawn them like that to highlight the contradiction. Just imagine the blue area as a square and you are done. B-)

    Square of Origin of a Close Blast

    Hi James. :) Yes, customer service gave the same common interpretation I received in this forum (thanks eveybody so far), but was not able to solve the apparent contradictions in the wording of the rules. :-S I will likely open the case again tomorrow.

    Question about Sleep (Wizard Attack 1)

    Well, Sleep is defined in the Keywords (PHB, page 55) as "powers that cause sleep or uncosciousness." Yes, as in the case of sleep power. You are uncoscious and asleep. :) The matter in my opionion is simple: we have an exception ("Sleeping and Waking Up", PHB, page 263) that could work...
