Hey folks, I'm really excited about these tiles, so forgive me if I gush a bit. The first set includes 6 thick, card-stock pages that you separate into more than 35 individual pieces. The pieces range in size from full-room to single, one-by-one accessory pieces. Because this is the first...

It's not going unnoticed Wow, tough thread to wake up to. :D Not to churn out a response from the bland-o-tron, but this is the best I've got right now: We hired two more developers over the summer, and we're working hard to address this issue. I'll be back here, and be more specific, as...

WotC Monsters Very helpful. -Jesse Jesse Decker Development Manager RPG/Miniatures R&D Wizards of the Coast

Order of the Stick is good stuff - several folks in WotC R&D check the site every week.

4d4 x 10 gp.

Yep - renamed to speed climbing during development.

That's just not ... natural. -Jesse Decker Game Designer Wizards of the Coast

311 Bard Prestige Classes Jeff Quick wrote the worldspeaker (he's a freelance writer, not on the Dragon staff). It fit better with Patrick's other bard prestige classes than in the article it was originally part of, so the staff moved it. -Jesse Decker Game Designer Wizards of the Coast

Me too. It's also not true. That sentence in Dragon is an error. The wild empathy class ability works like Diplomacy (but on animals, of course). It does not require ranks in Diplomacy (or skill ranks of any kind). Sorry about the mix-up.

Scourge of Worlds preview There's a free preview DVD in Dragon issue #309. Take a look if you want to get an idea of what this whole "interactive DVD" thing is.

Send an email to dragon@pcspublink.com. They can fix it.

Bow & Blade = Green Ronin As several folks have already pointed out, Chris Thomasson and I are going to write Bow & Blade for Green Ronin. It's not a Wizards product.

Nicely Done I honestly believe that there's no higher praise for an adventure than that simple sentence. Nice job, Drake_DM.

DM Screen Quality It'll be four panels. Nope, we bought special suck-resistant cardstock for this one. I've bent the production sample that's sitting on my desk around quite a bit, and it seems like it'll survive a stay in a mailbox just fine. How did the spell templates and other...

Dragon Index Thanks for the ideas folks--good stuff. I'm really interested in making something like this happen on the Paizo site. I've talked with our new web guy (hi Rob!) a few times about just such a project, and it's high on the list of web projects for the year. This is a great place to...
