[QUOTE="JeffB, post: 7028093, member: 518"] Overall, this sounds like a blast. I need to remember to check out your Blog. To" solve" combat lengths when I ran 4E (my perspective- others like the length of typical 4E combat) 1) adopted 1/2 HP to most monsters, on the rare occasion 3/4 for a "epic" fight or main villain. 2) added many "two hit minions" 3) Exploding dice- roll a 10 on your D10 for damage, roll again and add it in. Etc. Makes for some brutal moments on both sides of the screen at times. This worked well for us. Because I ran fewer fights (than typical of published 4E adventures) and instead ran important "scene based" fights, along with my tweaks, We simply could squeeze in alot more overall adventure in a session (which was the point, as sessions were not weekly) Edit- should add, we only played up to similar levels..11-12 and used Essentials.
