I know you're being sarcastic, but the sad thing is some player's brains see no fault with this plan. :(

If that's true, do the new marks supersede the "you can only mark one foe at a time" general rule as well?

Not to derail the conversation, but does that there are no longer trained-only skills? I can see that getting a little silly, where even the dumbest fighter-type can point out that this is INDEED the holy symbol of Dugong, whose religion died out thousands of years ago. Also, I heard you can...

Interesting. Does that mean a character with Quick Draw could drink two potions a round, as long as they spent two minor actions? Or are there further rules limiting how often you can be affected by potions? (I'm guessing no, but you can't be too careful...) Also, does drinking or pulling out a...

How representative is this compared to other classes? Does a fighter or wizard have a similarly complex stack? How big a factor is race in this? I don't think five triggers is terribly too many things to keep track of, but then I've been playing for a long time and very meticulous about my...

I, at 30, am the youngest player in a group where most are in their mid-30's. I started back in the mid-80's with the Red Box (precocious little scamp that I was), and played pretty much every edition up until now. I'm guessing the actual numbers will be skewed towards an older, 25-and-up...

Working in the IT industry professionally in a development role, I see a lot of commercial ideas also end up abandoned due to lack of resources, most of which never get beyond the design phase. This is not endemic to community-supported projects alone. As a disclaimer, there do seem to be a...

Exactly. In this case, I think it is less an issue of "Is this right or wrong?" and more an issue of "What can we learn from this?" Shrieking at each other about whether this is fair use or theft should really be secondary to trying to determine (a) how to prevent this from happening in the...

I agree, such a law would likely be almost impossible to enforce in any practical manner. However, downloading electronic versions of the books that you own the physical copyright to is a sticky legal issue. For the uninitiated, it is known as format shift or fair use ; the same loophole that...

What about in this case? I, like many others, have preordered the books. The company has already taken my money, but has not yet provided the product. Legally, I own the product now; am I not allowed to view the material I have already paid for? Yes, I agree making it available to anyone who...

The problem with that is that very few, if any, of those licenses are owned by WotC, and with the current state of copyright law in the US (where the game was primarily developed), they could find themselves in some very hot water if they reference any of that material. I'm not a lawyer, but...

I have a group of 2-3 who are currently looking for a game. We're all 30-ish, 2 experienced 3.5 players and one who's been out of the game for a while. The game would be alternating Fridays beginning on the 28th correct? We are already in a game on the 'other' Fridays, but that should not...
