Drop me a message if anyone's ever running an epic tier game. I can understand why DMs wouldn't want to run it, but I've always wanted to be in one.

I think that one key to it might be limiting immediate reactions per player for a PbP game.

Also, have any of you read or heard of the Sly Flourish's Running Epic Tier D&D Games ebook?

I bought it for ~ 4.99 on amazon for Kindle. It is full of great advice for how to actually make an epic game not bog down and for how to actually challenge your players.

good stuff

Immediate reactions and interrupts are always troublesome. Maybe have the players state their default course so the DM can resolve it (For instance, Kadaith uses his immediate reaction attacks on the first non-minion enemies that trigger it)? The DM gets more work, but it's less troublesome than repeated retcons.

I gots one more reroll for this round, so silver, reroll that other save for Dom.

I generally like the player who you grant a throw to, to actually make the throw, just for future saves. That one was fine, but just for the future

EDIT: Will get monster's turns done in the morning. Oh and Caleb, you don't have to make a post about getting the THP's from your boon. As long as they get transferred to the Character Status' on the map.

Ascy, unfortunately activating the THP requires a minor action and you're fresh out of those. You'll have to wait to activate it next round.

So now you're sitting on a 31 + 2 AC, 39 HP, 0 THP.

Has that been errata'd? From all I can read in the EPG and offline character builder it says free action.

From the Online Compendium
Quote:
Healing Infusion: Resistive Formula

Encounter (Special) Arcane

Minor Action Close burst 5 (10 at 11th level, 15 at 21st level)

Target: You or one ally in the burst

Effect: The target gains a +1 power bonus to AC until the end of the encounter, and you expend an infusion crafted with your Healing Infusion class feature. The target can end the bonus as a free action to gain temporary hit points equal to its healing surge value + your Constitution modifier.
That looks like it is a free action to me.

Aah you're right, perhaps when I added it to my sheet I was reading it was a minor and now it's a free...or maybe I just messed up THP!

Made a small correction to Initiative -- Infernion has not gone this round, yet he has an X by his name as if he has. Nevermind just saw he was on the previous page.


Looks like Infernion is up and then TW1, TW2, and Devil to close the round.

No problem on the Second Wind, it's not strictly RAW but with a glass cannon under its command it only makes sense. Of course, I do believe I'm entitled to a saving throw:

(1d20)[16]

And the reroll, in case of success: (1d20)[4]

SONOFA

I couldn't have rolled one 10 on my Dice of Auspicious Fortune for the day, just one?

I didn't realize she also has ongoing 10 fire damage too.

(1d20)[10]

Reroll if necessary: (1d20)[13]

Well at least she's no longer burning to death.

So, I'd suggest y'all kill that cultist before he summons another of these devils.

Ok, well you are still dominated, because that is the one I was saving my reroll for, but you are no longer burning, yes

Does Kadaith still have all his buffs? The previous post didn't have them but I don't see why they would just disappear.

All this time I forgot Mai has 7 points of fire resistance. No idea how much health that would've saved her over the course of these fights, but I'm sure it would've helped at least some.

Regardless, this has turned into a pretty tight battle. So if the strikers are doing too much damage, turn them on the party, eh? Well played, Celtic, well played.

Save vs Ongoing Fire - (1d20+2)[18]

Forgot about about that. I don't think it matters that much though thanks to the resist from the dragonfire, unless there are followups that require the ongoing damage.
