I don't play D&D! (or even d20) I spend most of my time these days with WFRP & Savage Worlds. I've really been enjoying the departure to other systems actually..

I don't want them to win me back; I'm enjoying Savage Worlds too much! Thank you Wizards, for driving me away and causing me to try other products. I owe you a debt of gratitude...

I'd probably rule that you need 8 adjacent spaces, so that players can't cherry-pick too much. You also get into more trickyness when you get into Burst2, burst3, etc... As a side note, I want to make it clear that I'm in favor of the idea that a game system should support what you want to...

I experimented with something like this a while ago. Rather than doing the 'you fail a check' route, I went for 'Roll-twice and take the lowest'. To me, that approach feels a little less like rail-roading, but still gives a statistical variation. (it works especially well in situations where...

Well explained, Garth! The idea isn't to have each character covering all roles, but for each class to allow for benders of different roles to be made. Perhaps rather than trying to make each bending role work as a single class with variable options, we should construct a separate class...

That seems like a great idea - It fits in with the combat style of avatar really well. The one thing is that if you did this, you'd need defense powers for non-benders as well... Could a list of generic defense powers be made, tied to role and/or power source?

Forgot that doduo did. oops! (got tricked by the whole 'doesn't use much flight' thing) All the rest: Sounds good!

I think it's more about having a reward/incentive for putting in all that work. It would, of course, be entirely optional depending on your play style. Who said that paragon adventures have to get extraplanar?

An interesting idea, and one with potential merit. I do have a few issues with it though - The chief one being the feeling of "I'm playing a Leader!" "I'm playing a Striker!", rather than "I'm playing an earthbender who trained in the way of the sundered shard" (although this could arguably be...

Bingo. Although I would advise letting trainers customise/choose the stats of their own pokemon. Luckily for us, Pidgey has the Flying type... Multiclassing is far more of an 'and now I'll start to dabble in this' system. I'd advise modifying the Hybrid rules to suit the theme of pokemon...

That sounds like an interesting approach there, Matt. Any chance of getting a writeup on the specifics? (including any notes you have on how you're planning on doing costs)

A Brief thought on the class/type/role front: There was someone a while ago that was working on a 4e-based superhero game, who treated the different roles as different classes. Depending on which role you had, your powers would behave differently (much like variations in warlock pact powers)...

Will trainers have their own stats, HP, etc? What if, as a part of the story, A trainer has to sneak into a compound, or fight a human enemy without their pokemon, or even fight a pokemon by themselves? Would such a situation be evenly matched, or would the side with the pokemon be much...

Flee! Flee for the hills!

"You don't think my level 30 fighter could drink 250000gp worth of ale? Just you watch..."

I'm another one of those people who doesn't like having to litter treasure around his dungeons like chocolate in a garden on Easter. ...But neither do I like handing my players a book and saying 'go wild'! ...Or walking around with the GDP of a small nation in their pockets... For this...

Hey Outlaw, liking the new iteration of the rules! Especially the reworking of the Defiler. Very nice. A couple of things I noticed with the wizard: a) The 'Preserver of Life' feature is titled as a daily, but the body of the text refers to it as an encounter power (personally, I'd say that...

There's an old double-disk mix CD called Future Funk that has some good stuff on it. I don't have the names of the artists though, just the tracks.. Inspection, Clank, Space Junk, and Born Slippery are probably the best. Also, depending on what mood you're trying to capture, there's a whole...
