D&D 4E Original 4E Monsters

Sounds good - I was actually just thinking last night how things like a 4 square radius are really quite a lot larger in 4e than they were in 3e. Thanks for the info!

A mini manual

I redid the compilation, and hope it's glitch-free this time.

I didn't do your back page, legal stuff and opted not to add a cover image. If you want either of them added on, just let me know.

If anyone finds a glitch just hollar at me.

Awesome, thanks! The only thing that jumped out at me is we lost which melee attacks were basic (so used on opportunity attacks and charges) - the little m vs. big M that I'm doing until I get access to the icons that wotc uses.

Anyhow, this will be great for me to print up and use at the 4e-ish game I've started running

This one I can fix, might can even get the icons. I'll see what I can do.

From memory, I think the Iron Smasher is the only critter in the list that it isn't just the first attack.

Some thoughts.

• I would be hesitant to create a new condition unless you expect that condition to see quite a lot of general use. I certainly wouldn't call it diseased since a variety of diseases should have different effects.
• I would use a tag to represent Disease effects. That way you can provide immunities, save bonuses, and allow powers and rituals to interact with all diseases. If the bodak's immunity is any indication they already do this.

glad to help. The coolness of the product makes the effort easy; more monsters always rocks.

I've added a link from the PHB Lite thread to the compilation. If you need the link updated give me a shout.

Cheers,
