Greetings.

Nightfalcon here.  If there still a spot at the table I'd be interested in taking an open seat.

Malek, no need to Scared, I'm old but not that old.  I haven't gone old school on any GM this entire year (it's been slow).

Seriously, I don't know what LuckyDee has been saying about me.  It might be true that I remember them inventing dirt but sand was already there and yes I have played games that predated polyhedrol dice but heck all the continents were in place by then. 

As for your GM'ing.  Been there, done that, on both sides of the table.  I know how hard it is to GM and how things don't always go as planned.  While I've run some campaigns that I thought went really well, I've had some that died.

Also I know you ran Hackmaster so if that is your style of game, I can roll (role) with that.  Mostly I want a chance to give 4E a try.  I went from 3.5 to Pathfinder  and while very happy with those decisions, I never gave 4E a fair shake.  It's like green eggs and ham, I might like it Sam-I-am.

I'll start rereading the rules and coming up with character concepts. 

In the mean do we know what others are playing so we're not duplicating roles in the group?
Okay, fair enough. Question - do you want a PM with a link to offline Character Builder with newest stuff or do you prefer to do it tradtional style, i.e. by hand.

Also a fair warning - at this point we have seven people applying (Thiebs decided to bow out) not counting one "spare" that contacted me via PM, so as a result one or two people will end up on reserve list (like I said aiming for five, maybe six person group). Who it'll be I'll decide after seeing the characters via mixture of personal bias and random choice ;)

As for roles I believe Xander is going for Kobold Fighter, or at least that's what he was talking about when I originally asked him)

Edit: As for items for DB fighter - I'd look for things that either add some more damage, or ones that give better mobility. So arms or feet slots I guess?

I think I'll go with a rogue.  While have the player's hand book, I don't have any of the subsequent books.  Unfortuantely my current economic situation is such that this probably won't change in the near future.  I also haven't been able to to find a SRD that covers things not in those books.  Themes/backgrounds/a number of the classes/races.  If anyone can direct me to a good online source, that would be great.

I'll have a look at char creation tonight. If anybody has any suggestions as to what I should play, feel free to enlighten me. Otherwise I'll work something out myself.

GAH. Fix to a typo in houserules - racial encounter powers can be used twice per encounter but only once per ROUND (not day as I written before for some reason)

Edit: ZicherCZ, you still with us man? It seemed you had your character mostly done, then you fell silent.

Sorry, Malek, still in - but RL, my job and accompanied travelling got the better of me at this time. I'll finish the equipment part of my char tomorrow. I'm sorry if I'm the one waited for.

There's still me.  I have to roll up my character.

And since you rolled up the Dragonborn Fighter, I need to think of something else to play.

Edit: Deva Cleric.

I've no idea what I'm doing.

Yeah, it's not just you - LuckyDee is still finishing up his character, and I don't believe I heard anything from Nightfalcon since his last post in the thread. You just stood out a bit more due to how fast you mentioned having character ~mostly~ done ;)

On unrelated note, after thinking about it some I am nixing the escalation houserule, at least at this point. Looking at the numbers people have been producing so far with their characters, giving out attack buffs doesn't seem as necessary as I thought it might be at first.

One encounter and half PK later, you'll change your tune...
