[QUOTE="Cirex, post: 4184598, member: 63721"] Two big fears, two minor ones. [u]Minor[/u]: -[b]Getting the right setting[/b]: A few years ago I would have created a new World suited for D&D 4e but nowadays I got no time for it, so I'm planning to play at Eberron...but many things will have to be adapted...and I'm afraid that the outcome would be not good enough. -[b]Tracking marks and ongoing effects[/b]: As many people said, this could be troublesome for my players. The "Wait, the bard was singing? Ok, then I hit" line is just too common. I think that every player having a sheet to keep track of their own stuff will be enough. [u]Big[/u]: -[b]"3.5 was better"[/b] : If my players start with that, I will feel a bit sad. They are free to like whatever they want. I really like how 4e is going, and considering how much some of my players love B9S over the classic "Attack power, attack power, attack power" routine, it should be ok, but we will see. -[b]Miniatures[/b] : We only started to use miniatures last year, when I designed a mega fight against the BBEG of a long campaign and I wanted it to be perfect, so I created a seven different phases fight, with many ongoing effects all around. We liked how it worked, so I started to use the battlegrid for important fights...but I barely have any miniatures (till June at least), only the basic battlegrid (till June) and not much imagination to start using LEGO or similar things to "draw" tables, barrels, etc. I want to play 4e with miniatures, but I think I'll need to do something to avoid having clone fights like "Ok, I think I will take that corner again, while you two cover me".
