    Mithril or Black Dragon Skin?

    Well, in an actual D&D game they'd be real babies, which kind of lets the caption make sense. Separates evil from Evil. Or D&D from HackMaster. One of those. :D

    Is it just me, or are WotC minis...

    They'd be less silly if they didn't come in random booster packs. But hey, what do you expect from cheap (quality, certainly not price) plastic mass production thingums? Warhammer quality these things ain't.

    What do you think about the Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting Book

    I'd say it's at least 90% fluff. Besides a handful of new rituals and some magic items, the only real crunchy bits are the easily ignored stat blocks. You could easily use it as a worldbook for any system you wanted to.

    Ranger Animal Companions in Martial Power

    I hope the Animal Companions advance with your character in a way that doesn't mean they'll die pretty much instantly if an enemy gets a hold on them. Maybe it's because I'm an animal person, but I never liked going through a dozen Animal Companions by level ten, or "upgrading" to something...

    What do you want from your Fantasy Roleplaying Game

    GURPS. B-) Say what you will, I've never felt like I couldn't do something I wanted to do with that system.

    Fiery Dragon has Sword & Sorcery license?

    If they were, they were chock full of direct Scarred Lands references anyway. Not that it stopped me from using them separately despite that.

    Idea: D&D TV Show

    And it shall not feature a band of children with poor acting (voice-over? Meh) skills, no villain shall wear The Silliest Hat Ever, and under no circumstances shall there be a thinly disguised Yoda clone. :D

    Death in 4e - An Obituary Thread

    Well I wouldn't have anything and everything dish out CDGs, naturally. But I definitely think orcs and similar foes would be rather likely to deliver them. Just me though, I'm not trying to tell people how the game is played. :) And yeah, it is something that my group enjoys. I know that not...

    D&D needs to grow up

    The Dark Ages line for the WoD, anyone? If you want medieval "grim and gritty" then it'll do you very well indeed. Magic, corpses, blood and guts, short and brutish lives, generally horrible conditions, monstrous monsters, etc. No, I'm not just trying to pimp another game. The WoD is horror and...

    Death in 4e - An Obituary Thread

    I'm of the opinion that the Players need to know that yes, the PCs can die if they (or their teammates) screw up. It makes the game more exciting and it encourages cooperation and intelligent play. If your character is never at risk when he falls, but at worst only has to wait a couple of turns...

    Why hate onthe drow? (Forked Thread: How is FR changing with 4E?)

    How is she sure it's his kid? Because she 's Qilué Veladorn and she says it is.

    Why hate onthe drow? (Forked Thread: How is FR changing with 4E?)

    Given some of the descriptions I've read of Qilué Veladorn... ;)

    DDI for $7.95

    I'm not sure how it works in Germany, but in the U.S. a debit card works just as well as a credit card for online transactions. I don't have a credit card myself, nor do I want one. My debit card is able to do anything a credit card can.
