The Campaign Builder's Guild

My only problem with the mods is that i don't know what order to do them in, as they seem to counteract each other, or require a certain order of installation.  So that is my main concern

Actually my main concern is that the second game isn't working, i keep getting this message

"Error installing iKernel.exe: (0x10000), and i have no idea how to fix that, dispite looking on the internet.  If anybody could give me a hand, that would be great.  

thanks a lot

My computer broke and i've been forced to reinstall all of the games I had with no memory, and i figured this would be a fun excuse to replay the baldur's gate trilogy.  I never used any mods before this, so i figured now might be a nice time to start.  Problem is, I want to make sure i can get the mods i want in the right order without screwing everything, and a lot of the mods i've found lack any real description.  Any recommendations?

No, because in a 4E all of the PC classes are distinct powerful beings who can do absurd things on a regular basis.  Like for example, the mages ability to reuse there abilities between combat.  So unless they in the middle of a fight, the 4E mages can be just as crazy in terms of high power magic totally changing of the society.  It would be just as powerful in terms of world changing events as 3E, the classes are just as powerful

2E might be a little use more accurate

Building off my last point, if you have magic at your hands you can live in some crazy locations with almost any sort of life style

Quote from: Kapn XeviatIt depends on what kind of magic there is in the system. Some systems, like 3E D&D, have spells for everything; if someone in the world would use it, there's a spell for it. In 4E D&D, though, non-combat spells were turned into Rituals and only the ones that are used by players were published: a "water the plants and watch them grow" ritual wasn't released.

I, for one, think magic would probably be similar in ends to modern day breeding of crops/farm animals and modern day pest control. It would push the maximum arability of the land up, and you might be able to squeeze a few more people per square mile of farmland.

When it comes to 4E you still have a problem about how everybody has spells at there disposal.

Cultures, ethnic groups, back ground, societies, deities, the megaverse, characters, structure and races

Kindling- I think the game itself can merit to that lol

1) Yeah, its partly that but I think it really boils down to lazyness.  WotC knew there was a balance issue, and wanted to solve it with mimimal work.  So they do this kinda crop out, because they just make it a combat game and cut out Everything else, in a way to avoid the arguments.  Simplify aligniment to avoid those arguments, cut out back story to avoid those dicussions, simply ignore world consistency ect ect ect.  But your right, in the end, it actually would make a great supplement for the minies.  Your totally right when you say that 3E miniture game doesn't make much sense compared to the actual 3E game, and you could say 4E, if it wasn't a table top, it could be a fin way to make the minature game a legitimate game on its own.
2) Yeah, that is a bit of an irony there, i'm kinda confused why they did that

Thank you Vreeg, that is a very good clarification.  

yeah, my deal about 4E i that it resembles a wargame in-terms of design more than than say, a table top.  Does that make Wargames bad?  certainly not.  It doesn't make 4E a good table top through . If 4E was designed as a war game openly, i think it would be a better game.  Would it be a good wargame?  I can't honestly say, i don't know it well enough comapered but hey...

wow, that is thinking outside the box, through this can go in a really creepy direction.  I love the alien theme, i'm really interesting in seeing how the world's mind set is different

Yeah, they are wonderful, in such a horribly dark way. red is better..

And i blame crazy thread on gravity, its most likely its fault

Song of Ice and Fire is intended to be a very serious work through at heart, about deconstructing the fantasy genre and producing a realistic and logical story.  It is still funny but its main goal isn't humor, and i Feel Warhammer, which is still a good storyline game humor aside, is really aiming for humor in its horrible horrible universe (see also the orks), and its grimdark setting is almost a thing of humor.

Actually i think the world is so crapsack that it is almost borderline parody, you need to have a sense of humor to possibly get through it, it is such a cruel evil existance.

Basically, as my planet is larger than real earth, it has a vast underdark that streches down almost 30 miles total, through it varies in deta, only half of which cna substane human life.  Near the surface we have tings like real life caves and what not, but the offical underdark starts about a mile down.  Near the top you have humanoid cities, and ancient civilations (drow, deep dwarves, deep gnomes ect), but as you get further down the populations decrease, until eventually it becomes inhabeted by only ancient evils long forgotten.  When you thing you've reach as far down as you can go,  you might find that you've in fact reached a new plan located at the bottom, an entire new realm run by the gods of the underground.  There.....well you don't want to go there.

It is absurdly morbid.  Again, i'm not saying that is a bad thing, but that world has almost no good fraction in the world.  The good guys are the Imperian of Man essentially.......and that says a lot
