[QUOTE="Rel, post: 4651451, member: 99"] Just an update to say that we finally started this campaign last night and I had a ton of fun. I'll be keeping a record of how the 4e rules as well as these house rules worked in play in a different thread (I'll post a link here after I get that thread started). I wanted to also mention however that we adopted a version of another house rule I found here at ENWorld. You can read about it here: [url]http://www.enworld.org/forum/4e-fan-creations-house-rules/246377-skills-get-sead.html[/url] Basically it boils down to rolling exploding d6's for skill checks (and only skill checks, not attack rolls). You roll 3d6+Attribute Bonus if you are untrained, 4d6+Attribute Bonus if you are trained and 5d6+Attribute Bonus if you are trained and have Skill Focus. All dice explode (i.e. if you roll a 6 then roll that die again and keep adding until you don't roll a 6). We decided to try this out until the PC's hit 2nd level and see what we think. As I said, I'll post about how it works out in my other thread. [/QUOTE]
