    False Equivalencies in the Edition Wars

    Let's see if we can't put everything into perspective here.... People who take the time to post continuously on message boards are, obviously, very passionate about their games. I often wonder when they ever find time away from the forums to actually play the games that they sometimes defend so...

    Putting a positive spin on the PDF debacle

    Whoops! I didn't realize there was already a thread like this before I posted mine. Maybe that's why it got locked. :erm: At any rate, I have pledged to make a purchase from at least one of my favorite third party publishers this month -- something I have not done in a long time for financial...

    Pledge Your Support for 3PPs

    Whatever reasons WotC has for their recent actions are no longer relevant to me. Ever since 4th Edition has been released, they have repeatedly shown little or no regard for their customers or their fans, and have only succeeded in alienating them further from their game and diminishing their...

    A Feat for an Additional At-Will?

    Uh, yeah. Humans will still have the additional at-will selection above every other race... Did you really think about this question before writing it, or am I missing something? "Comforting"??... :confused: I guess a lot of perceptions are based on what somebody's looking for. I'm just...

    A Feat for an Additional At-Will?

    From a design (i.e. balance) standpoint, it's not a good idea as written. First, it mimics the racial feature that humans gain. That diminishes the value of playing a human making it less attractive for players. Plus, it allows human characters to effectively double-up on their advantages...

    D&D 4E 4e - Power Cards (Full color, Heroic Tier, pdf)

    Update! Racial and Feat Power cards added UPDATE: I've added racial and feat (Channel Divinity) power cards on a seperate thread on DA. Any future related items will be posted there as long as space permits.

    D&D 4E 4e - Power Cards (Full color, Heroic Tier, pdf)

    That's an excellent idea! So, why wouldn't you do that for your regular players as well? The less you have to consult the books, the more time spent playing the game. Plus, it'll add less wear and tear on the manuals (I've heard they're rather delicate this time). ;)

    D&D 4E 4e - Power Cards (Full color, Heroic Tier, pdf)

    I'm a very efficient person. I don't like to waste space or effort needlessly. So despite what you're sure of, I cannot fit any more than two double-sided cards per page unless I alter the size of the cards themselves. Trust me, they're as compact as I'd like them to be without getting the text...

    D&D 4E 4e - Power Cards (Full color, Heroic Tier, pdf)

    Great! I should probably 'market' these as high-quality prints so that everyone knows what to expect. I'll have to consider making lower-res versions for people who don't have access to higher quality printers and inks, or just aren't interested in the monetary investment. Like I said, these...

    D&D 4E 4e - Power Cards (Full color, Heroic Tier, pdf)

    Glad you like 'em and thanks for the feedback. I printed mine on an HP Deskjet 1400 series at 600dpi, so I figured not everyone might get the same results. Quality will depend on the printer model, among other things. I should see how 300dpi looks; probably not very suitable for these. The...

    D&D 4E 4e - Power Cards (Full color, Heroic Tier, pdf)

    Why is that shifty? Wait. Let me rephrase that... Why is that shifty when anyone else that used the art for, say character sheets (Shado's comes to mind), or anything else, it isn't? If anything, I wish I could have gotten a better quality scan (or more artisitic ability to reproduce them) for...

    D&D 4E 4e - Power Cards (Full color, Heroic Tier, pdf)

    I made a small announcement about these already, but they're buried behind n-teen pages of another thread. But a few have managed to find them and the feedback has been considerably good, so I'm re-announcing it where others can find it. The complete set of heroic tier power card can be found...

    Making your own power cards

    Done. I've posted them, as well as the complete set of Heroic Tier cards in pdf format on the Dragon Avenue forums. (They allow for larger files sizes to be uploaded, otherwise I'd also post them up here.) They're a different style than what a lot of others are doing, and they're not for those...

    Making your own power cards

    I feel like I might potentially hi-jack the thread over other conversations, so I might start a new one before long. In the meantime, for those curious few, I used Paint Shop Pro for creating the images, then Word to insert the text in the appropriate areas, and a pdf compiler to convert the...

    Making your own power cards

    An Alternate Design I've been quietly watching this thread for the last few days since the official release. Like many others, I love the idea of using actual cards in play for the new system and admire the effort and talent being displayed here. However, I found that none of these examples...

    Align this character.

    Here's the problem: Everyone assumes that they can simply pinpoint every action or description to a single, defined alignment per the rules. If only it were so easy... but it's not. You must account for motivation and intent by one's actions; not just actions alone. That's why there are so many...

    Expedition To.... / Which Expedition do you want to see next?

    How about something new instead of rehashing everything old and cashing in on the nostalgia? Seriously, is it that hard for WotC to come up with some NEW ideas that they can rehash ten years from now? Now that the rant is out of the way, there's only one Expedition book that I would be...
