    What are some of your favorite Magic Items from previous editions?

    I had a half sea-elf ranger that loved the anchor feather Token. Used it on enemy ships at the begining of combat. (Swim up underneathe and hit the brakes!)

    Barbarian Playtest Experiences

    I am playing a lvl 3 Earthsoul Genasi Barbarian with a +1 Battlecrazed Fullblade. (I also took Warrior of the wild) Most fun I've had in a LONG time. If I crit with my Avalance strike against a character that is my Quarry, I do in the neighborhood of 60 points of damage.

    What other settings should get the FR treatment?

    My 2 coppers: A 100 year jump is, in my opinion, not enough for some things to change. When you have Elves that live 1000 years plus, it's hard to do enough in 100 years that they would even notice. Now, I'm not saying that I want ANY setting to jump more than 1000 years, I'm just saying that...

    Conquering the World

    Birthright, done correctly, is a LOT of fun (we actually used just the system, and set in the Realms). Birthright done poorly is like anything done poorly. It allows for players to work their way up, and really rule a land.

    What really happened to the god Mask in FR?

    I like the idea of the God of Thieves hiding, and not even the other gods knowing where to find him...

    [4e] Metallic Dragons

    Traditionally Metallic Dragons have always had two breath weapons. One is usually damage, while the other had a slow or sleep type effect (or various other "status ailments").

    Historical Perspective: 1980s "60 Minutes" segment on D&D

    I, too, am a part of the "Burned Books Brigade." I started gaming in 1980 (at 8 years old). The odd thing is that my VERY Christian Grandmother didn't care at all that my cousins and I played D&D. My mother (who never set foot in a church after she moved out of her mother's house) was stupid...

    Who Will Get the Axe?

    I found Lizard's post to be fairly on point. I agree with most of what he said. Formerly Dickens, you seem to have some personal issue with Liz. Hope you don't meet in public? That sounds threatening. We spout such vitriol at each other, and for what? For posting our OPINIONS? For...

    Anyone tried a fighter with reach yet?

    I know that the RAW says that the secondary damage from cleave must be adjacent, but as a DM, I would allow the target to be either adjacent to the player OR the target, as long as he was within reach See my poor attempt at a diagram.) P = PC with reach weapon and Cleave O = Original Target X...

    Dragon PC's, or can solo or elite monster PC's be balanced

    Sounds great. That also keeps the Dragons in question from being too concerned about treasure. Right now there are more important things brewing. What about having Bahamut and Tiamat each inspire one dragon to join up with the PCs, to keep that "dominion" idea going. After all, neither...

    Dealing with Healing Surges

    Sometimes you can just not let them rest. If they try to rest when you are not ready for it, maybe something even worse than they just beat finds them. A group that stops to "recharge" after every fight is kinda metagaming. The world does not stop turning because you stop to camp...

    Divine Challenge at the end of your turn

    Thanks fer clarifying your position here, "Me to the 4th". I see what you meant. Perhaps he could have said "I hope you guys DON'T argue like this in game." personally, I think Smurfy, Loki, and most of these guys seem to be the types to save these discussions for the afterparty. I love...

    Single PC Game

    Although I never have a shortage of players, I like the dynamic of a one DM/one player game. It is really fun to run intro games for new players and such. Remember to use PC style NPCs to help the survival factor. Also, it's often fun to run solos for your regular players between sessions...

    Dragon PC's, or can solo or elite monster PC's be balanced

    First off, I have to say that I am of two minds here. If this was a regular gaming group, I would be the first person to scream MUNCHKINS! That being said, this is your lady and her mom? Awesome, dude. My girlfriend games with me, and her mom is awesome, but lives across the state. If...

    Divine Challenge at the end of your turn

    Calling the guy a threadcrapper is kinda rude. He was stating a valid opinion (one that I share) about the conversation at hand. Granted, his opinion was about the conversation, and not about the TOPIC of the conversation, but at least he weighed in politely. Am I now threadcrapping for...

    Different Flavored Auras

    It was my impression that untyped stuff always stacks, thus two untyped auras would stack, wouldn't they?

    I have a job.

    Definately congrats, man. I know that you have been in dire straights lately. (Not the band, then you would be worse off.) Good luck, I hope the new job is something you love doing, no matter how well it pays.

    Why hate onthe drow? (Forked Thread: How is FR changing with 4E?)

    I don't know if this has been mentioned, but Drizz't was a two weapon wielding FIGHTER before he ever multi'd into ranger, according to the books themselves. I dunno if this matters to anyone, but it kinda messes with the game-design idea that two-weapon rangers are based on him.

    Half-Elves: Half-Eladrin?

    To be fair, I have done a fair bit of "Springering" (Which I hate, as a term. Lets refer to it as being a Revisionist Historian, or RHing for short, huh?). The difference is that my players TRUST me, and for anything I "take away", I also give back. Not necessarily in tangible benefits, but...
