Essentials was a mistake
Except for the new expertise feats, I love those.

>Thread Starter: What was the party composition of your last 4e game?

Elf Hunter ranger / Tinker Gnome Artificier / Changeling Desert Wind Monk / Half-elf bard (with mark of storm) / Dwarf Fighter

Was an Eberron campaign, sadly died before it got off the ground.

I honestly like the idea behind the classes, plus the imbalanced hybrids are fun to build with/for.

People just seemed to be discussing their specific kill team, I just wanted to know which version I should play

>>49505818
Standard killteam for rules that dont work with every army, Limiters on what can be brought, and having to take a whole squad instead of the ones you want.

HoR for a feeling of custumizability, allows 2+ armor, typically removes MCs and gives you neat little almost HQs.

Well there are those siege drill things for Krieg on FW. Functionally I think they'd be no different in operation than your normal SM force- it'd still be treated as deep striking. You're just doing it from the ground instead of the skies.

I suppose you could cook up some homebrew rules where a certain radius around a deep striking unit now counts as difficult/dangerous terrain, maybe the vehicles have a bonus to tank shocking.

Okay, so my party is about to get into a fight where it's almost certain one or more of them is going to die, and it's almost certainly going to be one of the two medics, because the enemy they'll be fighting is intelligent and has fought them before so the enemy knows what's up and who to target (also, one of the medics has made some tragically poor decisions about the calibre of their defensive gear).

So if one or more party members die, I can hand them an NPC sheet taken from the soldiers nearby, but the next stage of the session after the fight it doesn't make sense to have anyone other than specifically the party at the scene.

What should I do for players that have had character deaths, then? The NPC soldiers probably wouldn't be let in to the next stage, and there's not time to introduce additional members to the crew.

>The NPC soldiers probably wouldn't be let in to the next stage
Why not? And would it be possible to put a prisoner room after the BBEG?

>>49503869
You might want to think about the assumptions you're making here.

do you have friends to play? if yes, then you dont need to buy anything

repost:
Basic rules for dnd 5
http://dnd.wizards.com/articles/features/basicrules

A simple straight forward module
http://www.dmsguild.com/product/186488/A-Most-Potent-Brew--A-Basic-Rules-Adventure

If you enjoyed it get a core rule book, monster manual and dungeon masters guide and off you go

One golden rule for dungeon mastering for your journey: "don't say 'no', say 'yes, but...'"

if you dont, then find a group that can show you how it works. either way you dont need to buy anything to try it out. only moving forward

>>49503364
Well, he might need some dice. Or a dice-roller app.

>>49503364
Many thanks for the informative post. I'll look into it in detail this afternoon.

I have some friends that also want to start playing the game, but just like me they have zilch experience with the game.

What about the game sets that are being sold, like the "lords of waterdeep" or that "starter set"?

>>49503373
Which dice would I need then? I've seen lots of fancy ones in stores before, but I have no idea which ones are necessary to play this game.

My apologies for these silly questions. I should look this up, but while I'm at it... Well.

All the best
Jonathan

I wish you luck, OP.

I hope senpai notices you, OP.

Mark sounds like a real cool dude

Any? Any boardgame is /tg/ by nature.

>>49502283
He's asking for recommendations

>>49502283
Well of course, but which ones would you personally recommend? There's a difference between acknowledging they exist and actually liking them.

He killed a villain and took his icy cold heart as a memento of all the evils that exist in the world that the paladin fights against. The sheer hatred in the heart has preserved it and the Paladin keeps it in a jar that he carries in his rucksack.

last time we got some good discussion on some of dp9s other properties and a lot of discussion of the heavy gear universe.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what to add to the OP >>49501442
