As far as making something that is "rules legal," the DM has a ton of latitude in interpreting improvised actions; see the box on PHB page... 193! Holy crap, [MENTION=6984687]200orcs[/MENTION] was right!
With 4E, I don't think there is an option other than having one or two combats per session. Haha.
You get through a whole combat in one session? You must not be playing epic levels.
I think running 4e levels 21-29, 3 hour sessions, I managed to never have to end a session in the middle of a fight. But it wasn't easy and we certainly weren't doing more than one significant fight per session. Some took the whole 3 hours. That was with monster hp reduced - standards about 2/3, elites & solos 1/2.
Wait, what? Limited how? The search functionality and filtering is something they knocked right out of the park!
Maybe it was bad when it first launched? I certainly don’t recall that being the case, but it’s possible. Definitely not the case as of right now.
Nah, I’m gonna side with writers over librarians on this one.
Use your books. Break in the spine, dog the ears, carry them in a back pocket, make notes in them.
If you’re someone who doesn’t hold on to books, and gives them away or trades them for more books at a used book store once you’ve read them, skip the notes part. Otherwise, your house ain’t a public library, it’s your house. They’re your books. They aren’t sacred artifacts, they’re copies of a book of which there are millions of other copies. If it isn’t a rare book, don’t worry about it.

Soon, you’ll be able to use a variety of authentification methods/sources/whatever the word is. Amazon and it’s subsidiaries are awful when it comes to authentification.My biggest problem with D&d Beyond is that I can't sign into my account. It's paired with Twitch, which is tied into my Amazon account, but there's something mysterious going on that Amazon won't let me sign into Twitch. Twitch won't let me create a new password, etc. It's just a mess. One of my groups I'm DMing has created a campaign on it, and I can't even sign in to it.
Hmm... you are correct. I recall having a lot of trouble looking up general rules questions (as opposed to statblocks or class writeups). However, it appears to have improved drastically since the last time I tried using it that way. Any esoteric thing I search for gives me something helpful in the top few search results.
Another sacred cow bites the dust!
Honestly, I kind of enjoyed 4E at lower levels. It wasn't what I would call D&D, but I saw the appeal.
But epic level play? Yeah ... a single person's turn could take an hour.
Never saw a turn take longer than about 15 minutes.
