I've sketched out maps, and have general ideas where monsters should be located. I'm running into a few problems.<ol> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Is there an optimal way to create encounters? I know there's the n +/- 1 stuff in DMG1, and there are encounter generators online. Do any of you have a suggested method or generator that you use?</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Spy char creation: I'm debating about how character creation would happen. I want to have some MI6 continuity, and I doubt a Paladin, Druid or Shaman(-ish) would be employed as a spy. Should I say that it's "heavily recommended" that people hybrid-class as a ranger/thief/fighter? If so, how would you handle DEX being a dump stat? My initial thought would be to take an existing array and replace the lowest stat with an 18. How would you also handle hybrid-class restrictions? Should (for example) Hunter's Quarry/Sneak Attack become an at-will, rather than an encounter?</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Stealth rules: Any thoughts about stealth takedowns? If a PC successfully sneaks up on an enemy and performs a takedown, should the enemy be considered a minion and be insta-killed?</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Anyone have a preferred map creator program? In an online group, our DM is using a whiteboard app/Skype plugin called IDroo.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Does anyone see other potential red-flags? I know that the entire campaign will be railroaded/linear, but I suspect that the D&D campaign topic would be enough to keep interest.</li> </ol>Thanks, everyone. I appreciate it,-CastX7</blockquote>
