    Some book questions

    Hey guys, I'm a college kid on a budget and was wondering what books were worth my money. I've got the core book, but that's it. Specifically, I've been looking into the APG, DM screen, DM guide and either the Bestiary 1 or 2. Any input on these would be great. What I'm really interested in is...

    What's new?

    I've only read through the first core set of 4th edtion books (PHB1, MM1, DMG1), and was wondering, is anything new been added to the system? I essentially switched over to Pathfinder, to give 4th ed a bit of time to mature. Sorry if this is kind of vague, but I'm just looking for vague...

    Do You Ever Give Characters Magic Items?

    Herp Derp Well, I certainly wouldn't expect a reward for returning something someone lost, and CERTAINLY not an amount equal to or above what was lost. My feelings are that magic items being found on monsters is a bit unrealistic. I almost always prefer to either gift magic items or at least...

    Save or Die: Yea or Nay?

    Sometimes... I think it can be a good thing, but it really depends on the group. If it's a mature group and the save is not something frivolous, like a random encounter, it can be a very nice tool. If the group is immature, and there would be much qq, then it may not be such a good idea.

    Fighter Bonus feats?

    Would a fighter need to have the prerequisite feats to pick up bonus feats? Ex. Would a 1st level fighter be able to take Greater Two-Weapon Fighting, or Whirlwind Attack? They are both listed as fighter bonus feats, but also under the bonus feats are listed Two-Weapon Fighting and Imp...

    Magic Shields?

    Are there magic shields in either PHB, PHB2 or AV in 4th? Sorry if the answer's obvious, I really don't have time to look extensively and just glanced at the indexes. Any help please?

    Evil Campaign Advice

    Anyone have any good pointers for running an evil campaign with the DnD 4.0 Ruleset? I have already discussed and told the players that it isn't going to be a 'do what ever you feel like and get away with it' type of evil, it is going to be more subtle. Thanks.

    Bard supplements

    Is there any way that you can get a bard to be able to disable traps? A feat or something hidden away? I am making a bard and we do not have a rouge, so I might be forced to be a rouge. Thanks again!

    Have you had a problem with "character dumping"

    Sometimes... It's a problem when you have a whole party turn over and have to change the direction of the campaign. Then again, I did have pretty random players who didn't seem to care, so maybe it was just making me angry.

    How is 2nd Edition?

    I am interested in trying out 2nd edition. I am wondering, what is it like? I have played 3.5 and 4th editions, so compare it to them. I understand that many people believe it is an extremely broken system. Is this true, and how so? What is the feel of the overall system? Thanks to anyone that...

    PHB2 classes too tricky for newbies?

    From what I've seen, all the player needs to do is read their class. That's all anyone really need to do. Know and understand their class. If they have question's, they can ask you, if you don't know, you can ask here. If the question pops up mid-game, make something up for the moment, and ask...

    Well, my gaming group and I are in school and we have next Friday off. We want to play Thursday night, Friday afternoon and night. Probably a good 13-15 hours of gaming. I am looking for advice on running a marathon adventure. How do I keep them interested long enough to finish it and keep it...

    I can't do without the 9 alignments

    I'm letting my player's do whatever they want, because there is no longer any "Protection from Lawful", that I know of. If someone wants to take unaligned and make it more specific by saying Neutral Good, let them. All alignment is in 4th, for me anyway, is to let me get an idea of their...

    Homunculus?

    One of my PC's want to become a Lich and be able to create a Homunculus. As far as I know, neither of these options are actually available. Does anyone have anything to do either of these? I'm thinking that I could just whip up a ritual Homunculus if need be, but I'm interested in what everyone...

    D&D 4E Mass Combat--Anyone run some in 4e? Have practical advice?

    I would just basically have a regular fight happen towards the PCs and just describe the rest as it happens. Be careful not to give away everything though, only major things such as siege weapons coming in and major enemies nearby. Just how I would do it....

    What book should I buy?

    Hey everyone. My birthday is coming up and being a teenage boy, this is my time to get a DnD book! My group already owns the three cores, Adventurer's Vault and the FR Campaign Guide between us. My question is what book should I get as DM. I am thinking between Draconomicon or Open Grave. I...

    Forgotten Realms Map

    I was wondering if there was a Forgotten Realms map with a decent resolution out there. The book our group uses is not mine, and would like one for my own reference, as I am DMing. Thanks.

    Aiding anther for a skill check?
