    D&D 4E What Changes Do You Hope They Make To The 4E Rules?

    Yep it looks like a lot of you folks got your wish. I have no love for the ruleset within SW Saga, simplified skills, tougher 1st level, etc. not for me. I "initially" very much liked Tome of Battle..., but once I got a chance to play it and seen it in play in the games I DM, I found it...

    D&D Brand Manager of Fluff

    Quite often, but does it provide a valid guessimate that said popularity translates into sufficient sales that WOTC should invest in the cost of developing, designing and printing said books. I believe it is very difficult to judge if a specific theme/topic has the potential sales for...

    D&D: High Fantasy vs. Sword & Sorcery

    S&S, brutal Conan style flavor (definitely medieval), magic is still both wonderful and scary for the common folk.

    D&D video games license to Infrogames extended til 2017

    Doubtful, as Infogrames is a French company. The French government is very likely to loan them money to keep them afloat indefinitely, no matter how much they screw up.

    New laptop?

    Not good for gaming, e.g. no Half-Life 2 (+ episodes) if that is still a requirement. See this UK thread http://www.hotukdeals.com/forums/showthread.php?p=534477

    New laptop?

    Be mindful that Dell actually does not make their own laptop, they purchase them from manufacturers and then brand them "Dell". ASUS and CLEVO are two that I remember, but there are 2-3 more actual companies that make them and then sell to resellers like Dell, HP, etc. Also size of the...

    Poll/petition Sign the "KEEP DRAGON MAGAZINE' poll/petition

    Other I am waiting to see what WOTC's DI comes out with. Despite being a long-term subscriber to Dragon (only 14-16 issues short of a full hardcopy set), I pretty much just looked forward to the comics. The "archery" issue, which repeated content from the core book really irked me. Over the...

    How thick does plexiglass/acrylic need to be?

    It's been many years since I used plexiglass (note that there are variations of plexiglass plastics, such as acrylic), when I was still in construction. The worst part I remember is that it scratches very easily (acrylic sheets are more resistent to scratches and flexible versus hard plastic...

    http://www.professionalplastics.com/cgi-bin/main/co_disp/displ/prrfnbr/85259/sesent/00 http://www.rplastics.com/plexiglas.html The prices look pretty reasonable to me, the shipping costs will definitely push it up. Recommend that you search for a source near you and borrow a pickup truck to...

    Enough with the PDF table of contents already!

    I believe WOTC uses Adobe InDesign for their publishing tasks and its a simple File (pull-down) left-click "Print to PDF" - check "current page", or more likely they just have a macro pre set with "ALT P... something custom" for the current page. The output PDF can be preset to low quality up...
