    Only three old Classes in PHB2?

    "Classes- First letters D, R, B, W, I, T, S, S, 5 of which are completely new to D&D" I do not think we will have duplicate power sources... PH2 will have Primal and two others I believe. Couldn't "S" be for Shadowcaster? Shadow is a confirmed power source. So, Druid, Barbarian, Sorcerer...

    DM's Screen in August???

    Hey us Star Wars Saga players had to wait almost a year! :)

    How many encounters in a day?

    In KotS my group went through the Ambush 2, outside kobold Lair and inside kobold lair in one day. Due to travel time they did the Dragon Burial Ground in one day by itself. We're gearing up to go into the Keep so I'm not sure how it'll play out inside the dungeon. I will say that by the time...

    Flanking & Combat Advantage

    See we were on the fence. Logic plus LITERAL reading of the snippets in KotS support it, game design and past editions do not. So we were a little torn.

    We played KotS and have a couple of rules questions! (HELP???)

    Oh and if you are say... -5 and you get "healing" for 13 are you now pos 8 or stabilized 0? And when you go to 0, what do you have to do to become positive again?

    We played KotS and have a couple of rules questions! (HELP???)

    If you pass your Death & Dying save, do you continue each round until you get healing or fail three? Or does that "stabilize" you then? We assumed that you continue to roll it and if you hit three fails before someone uses Heal skill or a Healing power, you die. Is that right?

    Flanking & Combat Advantage

    Hello all, We were playing KotS and had a question... We are long time 3e players and understand how flanking works (opposite sides, +2 to attack, and it puts the mob under "combat advantage"). NOW, rules as written in KotS SEEM to imply that is another PC comes up on a "non-flanking" square...

    KotS question: A2 => A3 (spoilers)

    I ruled that the waterfall wasn't a raging Niagra Falls type, but a simple little thing that with a couple squares of double movement they could scale. It kept the action up. Now my group ambushed the kobolds outside and then when they were down to one or two left, one kobold ran up the...

    Need WOTC Offical to deal with the half-elf pregen/Keep of Shadowfell before release.

    The problem isn't an error in the stat block that affects game play (it doesn't... people are being WAY too critical of pregens in the preview adventure). The problem is that people want to know the entire Half-Elf racial benefits list and are pissed that they can't figure it out from...

    April preview

    I miss Mat Smith's previews. Go back a few months and look at how decent the previews were. This, and the last one or two, have been complete garbage. Seriously man, this is horrible. At this point we should see serious coverage for Keep on the Shadowfell, all three 4e core books (at least the...

    D&D 4E 4E at the printers...but we don't see it until June?

    ACTUALLY I have a friend (one of the gaming group) that worked at Berryville Graphics where the HP books were printed. They printed them mere weeks (2-3) before release date. It was NUTS. He'd have to work 12-16 hours, they were under guard (even to the bathroom) to make sure they didn't steal...

    D&D Experience: Two Page Spreads on Display

    I'm VERY surprised that nobody has commented on the size of those pages... definately not 8 1/2 x 11 portrait... :)

    WoW is becoming DDM

    If they are the same scale as DDM then it looks like more PCs to me. Sounds great. :)

    Core Rulebook Gift Set Discounted on Amazon!

    That is about my situation. I'm sorry, with the internet the value of the FLGS is mostly gone. You don't NEED them to get groups together and meet new players. In the past (pre-90s) that was the way and it was grand. But now they don't add anything, most tend to be elitist, unknowledgable, rude...

    Races of YOUR World

    For me I am pretty much scrapping any "homebrew" and going as close to core 4e mythos as possible. It actually REALLY is similar to what we've been playing for many many years and this way, since my DM prep time is about gone since I recently went back to college to get my Master's, I can easily...
