    D&D 4E 4E port of 3.0 Devoted Defender; comments welcome

    Here's a Fighter paragon path based on the Devoted Defender prestige class from 3.0's Sword and Fist. I'm looking for balance suggestions, particularly. The intent was (a) to give the fighter some of the ally-protecting abilities of the paladin, with a grittier and less magical feel to them, and...

    Help: How to "bond" a party?

    I'm finally getting my feet wet by DMing a Planescape game, after a great many years spent only on the players' side of the screen. It's been a long time since I've tried to put a campaign together, but the first several sessions have gone pretty well. Enough so, at least, that I'm beyond the...

    Pathfinder 1E [PAIZO] Dungeoncraft articles?

    So apparently, with the sale of Dragon Magazine to Paizo Publishing, the online version of the Dungeoncraft article series has been removed from WOTC's site, which is rather a shame. As I'm not exactly keen on picking up 7 back issues just to get one article in each, does anyone know if they've...

So we had an unexpectedly tense session tonight. Our...

    Help! Player struggling to learn to DM...

    So I have a bit of a problem. I'd like to DM for our small group once in a while, to give the usual DM an occasional break. I'm a reasonably creative individual, I love world-building, I like telling stories. But I ran a quick one-on-one session with the usual DM as the player, to test the...

    Protection against stunning and confusion?

    So the group I'm playing in is currently deep in the bowels of the earth, running into a lot of mind flayers and umber hulks. As as result, it's a total Will save fiesta here, let me tell you. Last night it came within a hair's breadth of being an ignominous TPK, with the entire party stunned or...
