[QUOTE="kaomera, post: 4883896, member: 38357"] I'm gearing up to get back into 4e, and I've been reading the Mike Mearls Skill Challenge articles in the DDI. There's a lot of interesting stuff in there, but very little on the actual procedures of implementing a Skill Challenge at the table. This is something I've been noticing about 4e recently: there's a ton of information that is at least potentially useful to the game (if you can get it out on the table), but not a lot of advice or instructions on how & when to do so. And as I'm leaning towards adding more details (like Skill Challenges, terrain effects, secondary objectives in fights, etc.) to my games, I'd like to get a better idea of what works and what doesn't. I understand that a lot of this is going to vary on a group-to-group basis, but are there any good examples of how a Skill Challenge plays out at the table out there, or would any of you mind posting an example of how you play them out at your table?
