All my minions wear red armor ...;)

Compare it to the Half-Elf racial power. They get an at-will as an encounter power. your statement does not follow. At least, not without additional support. :)

The convince part should be easy. The book says to reroll if the total modifiers is less than 4 or more than 8 before racial bonuses.

In terms of the mechanics availble thus far for 4e, I would say that description was: Disarm*, Grab (Pin) and Intimidate. Failed check and downed opponent quick draws a small blade to deflect the heroes blade as he recovers his original weapon and the fight continues. A successful disarm is not...

The playable Doppelganger race is at the back of the Monster Manual. I more concerned with the silliness some of the forms provide, particularly those with origins other than natural. As I mention above (in this post), mostly silliness, though you could argue that appearing as an Astral...

Well, I hope the reason for the lack of responses is because it's not obvious how many varied shapes this currently allows for. Here's the list (Thank you Withak and your sortable monster list): Aboleth Servitor Astral Stalker Blood Fiend Angel of Protection Angel of Valor Angel of Valor...

Just a quick look at men's versus women's weight lift records (http://users.pandora.be/tom.goegebuer/WR92_M.htm was the only one I could find good comparisons of men-women in the same weight range), the reality of the matter is women in the same weight range as men can lift comparable weights...

Absolutely. My primary reason for be a literal as--rules lawyer, particularly when it comes to 3.x. 4e's relative language slackness may make it less frustrating for people in general, but it does make harder to discern RAW or RAI by carefully reading. I won't too much into this rant, but one...

Which works well with his statement that Hunter's Quarry was an example of how to word it if they had intended it to affect only one target ...

I would think it's per enemy per encounter. Here's why: Sneak attack is triggered once per round but deals more damage. The Warlock's curse allows you to mark multiple distinct enemies. Each curse is a distinct effect. Each effect is triggered once per round. Of course, I can see the other...

I think he made a typo. Lurker37's example works if the initiative order is Striker, Paladin then Enemy. By the way, I stumbled upon the answer to earlier question. Marked is a condition described in the Combat Chapter (a reference should be made in the Divine Challenge ability and it should...

On a related note, when a power marks a target, is that target marked per the class's standard mark (ie, Divine Challenge) or is it just marked for purposes of following up with something like "If target is marked, get X benefit"? I am asking because the Paladin gets an encounter power (or is it...

Just as a quick comment, I would replace the +1 AC of the half-Earth Elemental with a defensive encounter/daily stance or immediate interupt (at the extreme it could Immediate Daily Interupt gain resist X until end of your next turn)

Okay, the Doppelganger's Change Shape (and the Succubus's for that matter) allows Medium Humanoids. By my reckoning, that means: >EN World ate my list of every medium humanoid in the Monster Manual< Some are really cool options (Yuan-ti). Some are perhaps a case mistyping creatures (How does a...

I would make the lightning push the target and the Acid either deal more damage or maybe reduce AC until the end of your next turn. (edit: I need to hit refresh beore posting :P) By the way, since several races get an ecounter power and half-elves get a class's at-will power as an encounter...
