  • 09:48:38: #dnd thought: The king trying to short you gold has hundreds of soldiers. None of them could do your job?!? Think on that when negotiating.
  • 10:21:32: @newbiedm @DnDPrincessAria That just means they use too much facebook and they all want to friend you.
  • 13:54:46: http://twitgoo.com/29v9sx quite possibly the best present I have gotten this year.
  • 14:07:12: @JohnduBois @dragonchow I have and I have been sorely tempted to order one. But I have a very nice dice bag from #AnonyCon
  • 14:35:43: @JaredvonHindman You did get paid for them right?
  • 14:52:01: @JaredvonHindman That is why literary wizards rarely cast spells (Gandalf, Merlin, etc) if they don't cast they don't have to rememorize.

  • 08:00:08: @oodja WHAT!??!?!?
  • 09:33:04: #dnd thought: As a mercenary/adventurer tug on the villages heart and purse strings & fears. I you don't get paid you can't keep them safe.
  • 11:02:52: @GeekyLyndsay Happily oblivious to all the untis I don't need or care about. Who wants a hogshead of beer?
  • 15:54:19: @newbiedm Starting a new podcast? Or looking to join an exisitng operation?

  • 07:46:36: #dnd thought: As a mercenary the salvage from the dungeon might not repay your costs. Remind your patron expeditions require seed money.
  • 15:08:56: @deadorcs Glad it sounds like she got through OK. How about playing the log game, umm library reading room, & errr.... more sedatives.
  • 18:43:20: Started playing #Varo my alternate week AD&D 2nd Ed. game DMed by @oodja #dnd
  • 19:18:38: Slow start to #Varo. Everyone had their own thing to do. Alexi was doing his own thing buy land.
  • 19:20:20: Hrothgar spoke to the Duke of Vrolens to report about the world. Umberto learned of more bounty hunting jobs. #Varo
  • 19:20:59: Kiin & Tillam went to the Arsenal. Kiin bought a new sword & Tillam spent 5000 minar for research on the First Men (clockwork people) #Varo
  • 19:21:40: Now we are at dinner with Damen Ferrante. We ripped this guy off early in the game. Wonder what will be happening with him. #Varo
  • 19:29:34: We need to find what we stole from Ferrante and get it back. #Varo
  • 19:38:55: Ferrante's job will need payment. Kiin wants a monopoly on books shipping. Tillam has the trap & machine maintenance. #Varo
  • 19:43:23: Mr. Hu wants citizenship. Nero wants cash. Alexi doesn't know what he wants. #Varo
  • 20:19:47: Tillam was assaulted by the clokwerk jerk (a first man). He actually defeated him but lost his spider bot, 30minar damage to his home #Varo
  • 20:22:18: Mr. Hu is attakced by a zombie arm in a fish and went about his business #Varo
  • 20:54:55: Alexi has gone map shopping for some secret project. #Varo
  • 21:51:54: Caleb is being attacked in his shop. It seems some Uguntack and others hate him. #Varo
  • 22:32:16: Kiin and Mr. Hu are under attack whil trying to find a contact about Ferrante's job. #Varo

  • 08:35:10: #dnd thought: Remember the village might want more than just the "monsters gone" from that dungeon. As a mercenary take that into account.
  • 09:45:48: @DnDPrincessAria Woohooo.... We'll be glad to have you back. Good luck.
  • 10:15:39: @EldritchReverie @SarahDarkmagic that might be the plan. $10 pdf for books everyone buys. Otherwise stuff try to sell the book more than pdf
  • 11:32:11: RT @ATR_official: STREAM NEW ATARI TEENAGE RIOT ALBUM ON NME WEBSITE NOW! (pass on this link!) - STREAM NEW ATARI TEENAGE RIOT... http:/ ...
  • 11:38:59: @SarahDarkmagic have you ever run mid level 3.5? Building effective challenging encounters takes a lot longer.
  • 13:35:17: @Wizards_DnD RuleOf3 Q: Ranger's only get 1 quarry a round. Will essentials PhB rangers get to do it more often like thief sneak attack?
  • 14:57:07: @mudbunny74 @TheIdDM @BrainClouds @jelmore Extra dice because of the crit. doesn't, but SA, quarry, etc are part of the attack so max them.
  • 15:14:09: @TheIdDM With essential yes they can more than once. And yes I believe those dice should max out on a crit.
  • 15:16:44: @TheIdDM If the damage dice are "part of teh attack" before the crit is rolled max it. 1/2
  • 15:16:49: @TheIdDM If it comes as a result of the crit or some other rider a player activates after knowing it is a crit don't max it. 2/2
  • 16:02:09: @SarahDarkmagic true about ABV but you only get 2oz to sample at a time. I often volunteer at their fests & many folk are very responsible.
  • 16:09:03: @SarahDarkmagic In that regard their agenda is to encourage people to drink responsibly. They also strongly encourage taking the T.
  • 16:10:36: @SarahDarkmagic I do see the other-side of the argument. Unfortunately a DD program with a crowd that size would be rife for abuse.
  • 16:11:11: @SarahDarkmagic It also might leave them open to legal action if a DD got drunk because they cheated the system.
  • 16:12:52: @SarahDarkmagic DD program comments aside, are you planning on attending? If so I'll keep an eye out for you.
  • 16:15:41: @SarahDarkmagic Then I will keep an eye out for him instead.
  • 16:19:36: @SarahDarkmagic The smaller BA fests often have seating and some interesting panels (but only beer to drink).
  • 16:21:51: @SarahDarkmagic I'll have to check it out next time I'm that side of the city.

  • 07:58:13: #dnd thought: If PCs don't properly dispose of fallen comrades' bodies, then recycle them as well. Fighting undead friends should be tough.
  • 13:00:52: RT @TheAngryDM: #dnd Tip: No matter how rich and well developed your setting or story is, you will never make the players care, the ungr ...

  • 08:38:06: #dnd thought: Quest to the spirit realm to find & negotiation or interrogate a foe for info about his leader; lets frazzled DM reuse baddies
  • 08:42:54: @oodja It was partly inspired by #Varo and Nolio. Could you imagine how ticked we would be to have to FIND & DEAL with him!
  • 11:14:26: @ChrisSSims from 4E I'd pull healing surges, action points, limit power selection in general, remove skills & checks are stat rolls.
  • 11:19:10: @newbiedm are alignments even still in 4E? They were so unimportant after the switch from 3E, I think they effectively have been left out.
  • 14:40:11: @ThadeousC @ChrisSSims This sounds eerily like 0 level play. (But I'm sure PCs will be much more durable)
  • 15:11:17: @loganbonner probably +4 levels higher (hp, attacks, and defenses) with level +6 damage expressions. assuming 4E
  • 15:19:44: @loganbonner If it is for one of those fights I'd suggest level +6. I've seen a cheezed Paragon table take out a level +3 fight in 1 round.

  • 08:24:41: #dnd thought: Don't be afraid to revisit places. It lets the PCs see their impact on the world & use better strategies later on.
  • 09:45:11: I was excited for Greyhawk goodness with Dark Legacy of Evard, but the writeup for these encounters doesn't thrill me. :( #dnd @Wizards_DnD
  • 09:55:59: @tirianmal @Wizards_DnD You seem correct. Once I read the encounters description I understood that. But before then I had hope.
  • 09:56:51: @tirianmal @Wizards_DnD Even if it was the same Evard just traveling the planes it would have been cool/more interesting to me.
  • 13:38:43: @DnDPrincessAria I'm sure finals don't help either. is there anything we #RTDnD players can add to the obsidian portal page to help?
  • 13:41:42: @bandofmisfits @DnDPrincessAria @gwensdad @GenCon4James @UlfriknFritz @hungryclone If the rogues remember they might loot you for prezents

  • 12:23:53: @EldritchReverie Remember in Lating jubilex beigns with an 'I' #overusedIndyReference
  • 15:20:41: @DnDPrincessAria Aww you love me I feel all warm and fuzzy. :)
  • 15:36:55: #dnd thought: Try this next time you want to import another game's mechanics: take notes, then a month later recreate them in your own style
  • 15:38:05: Just backed these cool dungeon creation dice on kickstarter http://kck.st/fKtNdt #dnd #dice
