July Compendium/Character Builder Updates

Didn't see a thread about it, so from the Gleemax forums

  • Psion Class – Early PH3 material, developed and ready to play!
  • Eberron Player’s Guide Data.
  • Information from May Dragon and Dungeon.
  • Updated Hybrid rules and information.
  • Ability to Duplicate and hide power cards.
  • Other changes to the character sheet and power cards such as primary background information appearing in the Summary text and bold faced headers on power cards.
I’m definitely looking forward to checking out the psion mechanics and playing around with different builds, and I’m guessing a lot of you feel the same. Just in time to combine it with the Kalashtar from Eberron.

While I’m excited about those changes, as a DM, the thing that got me really going was the inclusion of traps and hazards in the Compendium. That’s right – starting July 7th traps and hazards will be added and updated on a regular basis just like the rest of the crunchy information from the published material. I know this is something that a lot of us in the community have wanted, so thanks to everyone for submitting requests and feedback along those lines.
A few things that stand out for me, confirmation of the Psion in the CB, as well as the ability to hide and duplicate power cards. The big one though is the inclusion of traps and hazards in the Compendium!

WotC, if you're reading this - please include the ability to rename powers (with the original power name in small parenthesis below the listing) in the August update!


Patiently yours,
Daniel

Woohooooo!!!! Traps and Hazards! Awesomeness!

Ok so what else is needed?

Poisons, diseases, terrain, skill challenges and vehicles I think.
