Depending on how I'm running a particular campaign or "Adventure" I sometimes utilize a more realistic structure to durability for items. Particularly shields and weapons. Shields constantly getting hammered on will eventually fall apart. (See 13th Warrior, and the engineering dispute). With two...

As a guy who's played Dungeons & Dragons since 1982, and played every iteration all the way through Pathfinder into Starfinder. I've found 5E D&D to be the most streamlined and smoothest edition to date. I love what they learned and applied to the game system, the bounded math, with fewer...

I'm interested in seeing what comes with the common, uncommon and rare magic items. But as far as the gold for magic items, currently as presented in 4E. It's simple. That's purely mechanical wealth to provide your characters with options for things they find, or acquire by means of hook...

I'm going to agree with Infiniti2000 that without sited sources, and this being cleared up in a errata or something similar, where everyone can get it looked at. I'll continue to do what I currently do. When you are dying you are in that condition state, and are no longer bloodied as you moved...

Now just give some of us an alternative method to pay other than PayPal and you can have even more money!

My instincts... "I've got a bad feeling about this.." I think your happy little medium is going to be upset quite a bit. Unless YOU the DM take a very firm and direct honest approach. Let your friend Jake know your honest concerns. Right up front. Let him know she's not even on the island...

I've just got to say, keep it up Truename. I'm enjoying this thread. And am really glad you didn't let any of the naysayers drag you down. Your idea has merit and it is quite interesting.

Let me give you personal anectdotle evidence of their choice. I wanted to buy the PDF. They do not offer it to me. I did not buy the hard copy. Lost sale, directly by their action. I represent a group of 7 players. In that group one player bought a book, for all of us to use as necessary with...

Yeah, I remember it fondly, when my D&D books and some my old Transformer figures, were added to the fireplace one day while I was out at a friends house. And I called home and heard. "Your books have met the Fire God." Yeah, I'm still salty about that. Where as my friend, his books and...

I'm terribly curious, based on what he mentioned, (Please don't respond Damaran). If he loaned the file out to someone to use, ala loaning your book to a friend. And say he did it via a flashdrive, with the files on there, ala a bookbag full of books. And he didn't keep any copies beyond say a...

To CleverNickName, the silence has been just surreal. cross-posted at WotC One thing that has me thinking a little is. Imagine the stock holder, who just heard that a subsidiary of the company he owns stock in (Hasbro), in a completely unexplained move, just cut off a revenue stream that...

I'm going to be blunt as a customer. They can take their ball away from other companies, that's fine and its totally within their rights. I'm not even getting into that aspect, from a perspective of whom they hurt as a result of this action on the reseller's end. Those companies agreed to some...

I have purchased all my 4E books as pdf's, and actually have hard copies of the core set as well. Actually that's the only hardcovers I've got. It's 2009, and I use a laptop and a home computer, often simultaneously. I must admit I've been caught completely and totally off-guard by this move...

I used to, initially, then realized they just didn't fit the style I was making, so I stopped using them. But I've seen stuff like it back in the early days.

Well I work the graveyard shift, and in my down times I've been building the cards. Last night I finished, the Bard cards, and got a good way through the Avenger, leaving me the Avenger to complete tonight and the shaman, and I will once again, have a card for every power. And it's easy to just...
