Yeah, I just ordered the print version. The rules looks really good. OD&D is cool but the rulebook is a mess. I appreciate having the clones to clean it up for me.

Some of the text appeared a little smudgy to me but my biggest complaint is that the end papers were a little stuck to the first and last pages which caused me to tear a little bit of the first page to get it unstuck. The copy Iin the bookstore I looked at had the same problem. Also, is there...

No, but it's an interesting idea. Github would seem to be perfect for any sort of collaborative work.

sweet, thanks! and it works - just preordered my mm and dmg along with a kotd bundle of trouble which thanks to the discount I basically got for free!

I just got mine yesterday and it is absolutely beautiful. I just wish it came out a couple of years ago. Now it has to compete against 5e for my attention. :erm:

The only reason I stayed playing 3e as long as I did was because the ogl allowed 3rd parties to produce the kind of adventures that I wanted. I still find that I have little interest in wotc adventures and plan on converting my old necromancer games modules to 5e. Without an ogl, 5e will be...

Great news. Now, when will wotc actually tell us about it?

Yes, this please. It would be really great if they got some cartoons in the rulebooks. The absolute best thing about the new HackMaster phb was the kodt comic that explained combat. The DCC book has some nice comics as well. Why does D&D have to be so serious?

Their PR dept. is certainly dropping the ball. We shouldn't be learning about new products from third parties like this.

They should change the name from D&D Next to D&D Forever.

See http://www.cardhunter.com/ for how to make a 4e-like turn based game. It's really quite fun.

It seems like their biggest problem is that much of the multimedia stuff is out of wotc's hands. The films rights are tied up in court battles and hasbro seems to whore out the video game rights to the lowest bidder every time. 4e was the most video game friendly ruleset D&D has ever seen and...

Looks good to me although I'd prefer the tables to be larger. d12 tables would be better and give the poor d12 something else to do.

It makes a lot of sense doesn't it? The elf half (agile, pretty, and smart) and the orc half (strong, ugly, and dumb) cancel each other out and you basically end up with human stats. Actually this thread made me remember my favorite part elf, part orc, part human character - Makri from the...
