So, I'm going to play a Wizard in 3.5 for the first time and people are advising me to play a Diviner (specialist in Divination) and giving up the Evocation school. Apparently this is a very good combination. While I'm quite fine with becoming a specialist instead of a generalist (especially if...

I'm GM'ing a Warhammer Fantasy RPG game (second edition) this Saturday and I as wondering if I could draw from your experiences on a few questions I had. One of DnD 4e's best points is that it has very solid ideas on how much treasure to give and how many monsters they can handle. How do you...

So, I decided to venture into the world of online gaming, downloaded maptools, downloaded a heck of images etc, and came towards a little problem. I really haven't a clue how to build village, city, forest or an kind of map of map in maptools really. I can fiddle around with the images and...

I'm wondering, which lores do people like best from Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay (2nd edition)? Personally I'm stuck between Lore of Light and Life. Both have healing properties, I actually prefer Light (has a spell to heal others AND a decent offence spell) but I'm drawn to Life because I'm...

I've noticed something that annoys me. Certain classes, do not have proper access to feats that increase ones critical hit range to something larger then 20. If a Strength based melee class reaches epic tier they can get a feat that allows them to have a critical hit with a 19-20. Most Arcane...

Does anyone know if Wizards plans to sell the PHB 2, Monster Manual 2 and Dungeon Master 2 together as a core rule book gift set like they did with the first ones?

Does anybody know if there's a Warhammer Fantasy Roleplaying game demo somewhere? I would like to run it but I can't seem to find any. Also, what is a WHFRPG about? In DnD it's by default (your campaign may vary) go in, kill things, steal their treasure and maybe save some people. Or maybe...

I made this thread so that we could gather all the feedback for the monk in one place. Feedback designers can actually use instead of for example proclaiming our surprise that it's a psionic class. I'll start off: The At-Wills lack an upgrade for level 21. Usually at level 21 powers do extra...

The Half Elf Emissary (Bard Paragon class from Arcane Power) has a really weird class feature. At level 11 it gets the following: Now, the odd thing about this is that I presume that if someone plays the Bard, especially if they choose the Emissary paragon class is that they want to be "Face"...

In the Warhammer setting, wood Elves seem rather xenophobic. Correct me if I'm wrong but they don't seem to like visitors and don't mingle with the other races. However, if you're playing a roleplaying game the races WILL mingle. How do you solve this? I'm thinking specifically of (wood) Elves...

I've been thinking, what makes a Necromancer a Necromancer? In 4th edition some of the classes have been reinvented, given mechanics unlike previous editions. Classes do not need to be a direct translation from previous editions. Which begs the question, what is the essence of a Necromancer...

Goodman Games I noticed that Goodman Games is bringing out a book with the Necromancer class in it... I hope it's innovative and good. I wonder who's be writing it? also on another note it seems that the Eladrin book has been pushed back. I wonder why? Oh well, gives me more time to write my...

I could have sworn I saw a nice link in a post the last week here but I can't for the life of me remember what it was. It was a link to a site that hosted RPG wiki's for campaigns. It had places where you could write characters, decide what information was available for the pulic etc. Anyone...

In 3ed if you were in the average human city there were Clerics available for healing. If you were deeply injured they were your best chance (if you could afford it) If you lived in a Druidic society somewhere in the woods I assume that Druids would be the best healers. While they don't have...

Let's say for instance that you have a player that wants to play a Drow character, his concept is that she's a dancer who does "performance art" with her swords. Originally a particularly bloody performance which used slaves that were deemed to be slow workers. Another part of the "Performance"...

Has anyone noticed that the Necromantic Rituals which were scheduled for Monday seem to have been replaced?

So, I'm busy creating my setting. Creating ecologies, economies, political systems, deities, theology, clothes, culture etc etc etc. However there's one question I can't quite answer. Most of the larger cultures have a large capital city (let's say 10.000 people on average) but I'm not sure how...

I've been thinking of making a Rogue build inspired by the harlequins from Warhammer 40.000. They're known for possessing an unusual amount of agility, even for an Eldar (the Warhammer 40.000 version of Elves). It would be an Eladrin with the Rogue class that would use the Artful Dodger class...

I'm curious, what kind of Eladrin do people like best? We have the default version, perhaps best portrayed (fluffwise) here and in the "Races and Classes" book (although of course also shown in other 4th edition products). I bet that people have made their own homebrewed versions. Could you...

Does Fantasy Grounds support the 4th edition ruleset?
