I'm somewhat amazed there are zero posts in this forum but hey, first time for everything! If you like giant robots shooting rockets at tanks and heavily armored tanks sometimes just running those robots over then this is a game for you. Battle Tank: Escape from Giant Robot Island is a...

I like Invisible Castle and more for ease of reference and to track how many die rolls people make I usually require they make an account, be logged in and always use the same exact name for their character.

In my games the players get to know the results of each attack before they interrupt it. I say 'The Zombie gets 22 vs your AC'. I feel not giving this kind of information is like not mentioning there are torches on the walls and then expecting players to grab a torch to resolve a plot point.

I would suggest seriously considering Daggermaster as a paragon path for a Sorcerer. Hard to beat critting on 18-20 with all your powers, and Sneak of Shadows gives you some extra damage once an encounter as well. The Powers are pretty weak for you though given that you'll have no dex...

Small is the worst racial 'power' out there and there is nothing given to Small races to make up for this. However Halflings have great feats and Second Chance is hard to argue with. Tempest Fighter is a natural outlet for them and with the recent nerfing of Double Weapons a simple pair of...

Feytouched is a brutal machine of teleporting doom in mid paragon. The sad part is that a Swordmage or Hybrid is better at it than a pure Warlock is. My problem with arock is that unlike some other classes there is no obvious way to build a good one and there are many ways to make a lackluster...

While this version is certainly more permissive than the last if I were to want to create a system ala True d20 or M&M I would much rather clone the system and alter my Frankenstein's Monster to my preference instead of signing on to this.

Realistically speaking you don't take your protective gear off when in a combat zone or disaster area. You might take off your boots and gloves and helmet, but you leave your vest on. In D&D terms the fighter prolly takes off his helmet, gauntlets and loosens his boots. All stuff that can be...

Really the GSL has only one purpose in the business model WotC needs to create with 3rd party publishers. It needs to make the 3rd parties want to put the GSL log on their stuff and be bound to WotC and therefore provide free advertising. If the GSL doesn't do this due to its arcane nature...

The rest of the 'mop-up' section is irrelevant, the point of the players winning is to get that XP. What you are suggesting is if someone is getting bored then the PCs get less XP. Which they will have to fight more later to make up for. I expect most players would revolt. If you want fights...

That's not cunning, its cheating or a house rule. Since you obviously approve I think its a house rule, but it is not RAW. The easiest way to get millage out of Undead is to use wights, once the PCs are all dead you can call it a day. ;) Whenever I need a new undead creature I open up the MM...

Just level the Red down to 5 as per the DMG guidlines. -2 to Attacks, all Defenses and Skills, -1 to damage. -64hp since its Solo Soldier in Heroic tier (8 per level x 4 for Solo) That should be much less killy, a 7th level Soldier will just laugh off the efforts of a level 2 character.

For PHB races anything with +dex is good, I would Say Elf and Halfling are better than Eladrin. If you include Dragon Magazine then Gnolls are good Rogues, about Halfling calibur. If you can use the MM, then Bugbear is the Rogue King.

Stining Cloud and otehr 'damage when you enter or start' effects mean to me that the caster uses them and then the party does everything they can to force monsters into it. The monsters should also force PCs into these squares. I do say you can only take the damage once per turn, so if a...

Bloodiron is very nice, but I still have a soft spot for Wraithblade (dragon 364). Getting your Sneak Attack multiple times a round is a wonderful thing.

Who needs Eladrin Chain when you can take Chainmail Agility (MP p141)? Then you can use Veteran's Armor like a normal person. :)

I would definitely require them to swap an at will for it with the at-will they swap becoming an encounter maybe. I think letting them get Twin Strike for a Cha Paladin with Hammer Rhythm would be nasty.

Out of 4 At-Wills, you use 3 different attack stats. 2 Dex, 1 Str, 1 Wis. The Wisdom one should at least be ranged 5.

I hope you have this same issue with all the magic that gives you game benefits. Otherwise you're saying it's ok for a Wizard to take an ordinary sword and infusin it with magical energy to make it +2 Flaming, but its is not ok for him to pick up a +2 Flaming Battle Axe and suck the magic out...

I do two things. I give out Ritual Components as treasure as others do. Ritual Scrolls cost the same as a using a Ritual once to prepare. If you have mastered the Ritual on the scroll it casts as a Standard Action. Otherwise use the normal rules. So the Wizard has a Scroll of Arcane Lock that...
