4e One Year Later Tome Show Podcast

June 10th, 2009 by Mike Shea

Last week I was one of a handful of guest bloggers who had the opportunity to discuss the past and future of D&D 4th Edition with James Wyatt and Chris Perkins of Wizards of the Coast on The Tome Show, 4th Edition – One Year Later. Listen in awe as I break James Wyatt down into a long pause followed by a very audible sigh of despair after my stumper of a question.

One of the best tips I heard came from Phil from Chatty DM where he described his six to eight session mini-campaigns that let his players explore different characters more often than longer campaigns. I may try this myself after we finish the current series of published adventures.

Enjoy the podcast!

#dnd tip: Making an enounter more WoW-like isn't always a bad thing. A lot of designers spent time on those battles.

Received the Death Dealer 4e adventure: http://bit.ly/cTyqKO The critical hit tables alone are pretty cool. Hope to run it soon. #dnd

Really enjoyed the @newbiedm's first Minicast on passive perception use: http://bit.ly/d5SwPm #dnd

@Trevor_WotC Thanks for the plug! Improved Mindflayers coming on Thursday! http://bit.ly/9I770e

#dnd tip: Powerful Solos should have some interesting effect when they become bloodied. Earthquakes, avalanches, or tidal waves of fire!

Bought two copies of the Harrowing Halls #dnd tiles: http://bit.ly/b7tybC - they look pretty cool in action: http://yfrog.com/jy67698331j

@wilw There are far worse ways to spend a weekend than building a #dnd game!

Wanted to repost the release of my most recent D&D DM Tip Video: Building A Portal Prop: http://goo.gl/fb/r60l

#dnd tip: Every magic weapon should have a cool name and at least a sentence or two of background. Where did it come from?

#dnd tip: You don't have to use D&D minis. Wacraft minis and McFarlane Toys can work just fine in many circumstances.

@gamefiend take some pics of the 3d terrain!

#dnd sneak preview of my "How to Build a Portal Prop" video: http://bit.ly/aC4zvt so you can build things like this: http://bit.ly/b1aNNG

#dnd tip from @newbiedm: AWESOME resource for fantasy names and titles.http://www.lowchensaustralia.com/names.htm

#dnd tip: Don't try to force your game to be a certain way. If you're group is out for a laughing good time, make it so.
