    Primal Items are up now instead of tomorow

    Did anyone else think 'Someone's been watching the old DnD cartoon' when they came to the Temblor weapons? :D

    D&D Heroscape

    Have you seen any of the planetary/campaign tile sets that GW put out for its minis lines? I would LOVE something like that for dnd if adapted to a grid and meant for dungeons. They dont even have to be textured so long as they interlock. Cast in grey, black ink wash, lighter grey drybrush. Done.

    It's Dark Sun

    Nature is always going to be there so long as life still exists. It might be a twisted mockery of what existed before hand, but you're still going to have ecosystems and cycles that happen in somewhat predictable cycles. Nature still exists because of this and so the archetype of an exaggerated...

    It's Dark Sun

    The feywild doesnt seem that horrible a fit to me, although your mileage may vary. I've always seem the Feywild as Nature 'turned up to 11', an exageration of the natural world. The Athasian Feywild would thus be even MORE dangerous to the unprepared individual and as the Athasian natural...

    Ampersand hot hot days of Summer

    Because Gencon's the place where things like this gets announced. *shrug* The lead up into it is to generate buzz for the announcement. It's just marketing. The fact that people are curious means it's working. :D

    Why the beer hate? (Forked Thread: What are the no-goes...)

    It seems a bit silly to me. I view gaming as a social event, so as long as no one gets disruptive, I'm all for anything that lets people relax. I dont even mind smoking, so long as they do it outside.

    Ampersand: Draconians!

    They actually did that in the official setting under Sovereign Press' reign, interestingly enough. The Noble Draconians were good Draconians who were formed when, in an act of desperation, the bad guys started using Chromatic dragon eggs. Not exactly the results they were looking for, so most...

    The Revenant DDI exclusive race

    Heck, just wear a closed helmet, or a hood with face mask. I'm sure they see adventurers doing that all the time. That and them hogging every dark corner they can find.

    Ampersand: Debut and Exclusive Content (Assassin Class)

    Thanks to a steady supply of anime, the media depiction of ninja, and what various people call to mind when the term is brought up, has drifted a bit from the old depiction from bad 80's ninja movies. When people think ninja, they tend to think about people leaping from tree to tree, feet a...

    DDI Changes - PH3 Previews! New price

    To be honest, I'd love the visualiser if it was done right. Something more for making character portraits/images for the character generator. Something else to consider...tying in a visualiser to 3d printing technology. A service where they would take your visualizer input, and convert it into...

    Jumping Jack Spiders!

    ...I always thought those things looked kind of cute, myself.

    Ki versus Psionic: Power Sources Do Battle (in a semantic sort of way)

    Over at RPG.net, Mearls has said they're sticking with Elemental and Shadow, although he didnt provide any details on the theme behind either. If I had to guess, considering the Elemental plane is the home of primordial chaos, AND demon kind, it'll be the DnD equivalent of Chaos from...

    Supernatural Season 4 - Spoilers

    Brotherly love at its finest. :D I dont think me and my brother ever took our fights to quite THAT level though.

    Supernatural Season 4 - Spoilers

    Looks like Castiel got a bit of a stern talking to. That, and/or found out something about Dean he didnt like. He was down right snippy near the end there.
