    When status effects annoy the players

    Tell them to suck it up. Seriously. They're complaining that their PC's are affected by monster attacks. Poor diddums. What do they expect? Their characters to be invulnerable super-heroes? If they're so bothered by it, then maybe they should devote some feats or powers towards ending status...

    D&D 4E Your thoughts on the 4E bard and other classes?

    With the plethora of options available through the Character Builder, every class can shine through the rules alone. But what really brings a character to life is how they're played.

    Reccomend me some material for adventuring in Mythic Greece

    I'll second that. Most of the GURPS history books are excellent, regardless of edition or system.
