Props to Monte for not kissing 4e butt. 3e/3.5 has always been a viable system, and it’s good that “The Cook” remains one of its’ best proponents. I suppose it doesn’t hurt that he led development on 3e.

D-a-D looks great. It’s original in it’s implementation, and I’m sure it serves a niche. If I can guess, I’d say it’s 3.5 players who don’t want all the story and immersion of Pathfinder, but who don’t have time to homebrew encounters. D-a-D would run great off a laptop.

I play 4e almost exclusively now, but I’m still a huge Monty Cook fan. He’s one of the good ones.

I became a member and the community there is very strong. Currently a few of us got together so that even when the weekend hits you don’t have to wait that long for new content. Our NPC-a-Week may not be from Monte but we are doing our best to ensure a quality addition to your gaming experience that is as easy to use in a Dragon’s Delve campaign as possible. That having been said all NPC-a-Week, Monster=a=Month, and Lair-a-Month should be very simple to lift almost wholesale into any other sort of campaign as well. And, to top it all off we have at least secured conversions of our Something-a-Sometime stuff in 4e, Runequest, Castles and Crusades. And at the least an Iron Heroes conversion of the NPC-a-Week.

Like Monte said, the community over there is awesome.

I’m extremely intrigued, this whole thing has a very ‘Diablo’ (the first one) feel to me that I simply love. A single dungeon, that branches off and connects to various places in interesting ways, and contains a myriad of monsters and creatures that aren’t necessarily related but can interact in interesting situations. Hopefully it turns out very much like that!

An interesting concept. I'll have to head over and look at those first six rooms. Thanks for getting the interview. Wimwick´s last post: Skill Focus: Endurance

As a 4e DM, I wasn't sure about this but it's pretty tempting... RichGreen´s last post: Player's Handbook 2 Excerpts: Feats

With regards to 4E conversions, there are some of us members working through conversions on the dungeonaday forums.
