    I Have A Copy of Monster Manual 5.

    I was afraid it was going to be a collection of the illithid-related monsters from Dragon and Lords of Madness, but this sounds really cool.

    Borders Stopped Stocking D&D Minis

    I imagine he means War Drums, that is nothing to get excited about.

    Variant spell descriptions

    Every spell I cast is thematic or otherwise altered. If I play an Asiatic wizard, her shield spell is a parasol made of force. If I play a regal sorcerer, her mage armor spell is assembled and maintained by illusory squires. I like to make my spells flashy and, I hope, memorable.

    The Magic-Walmart myth

    Guys, let's figure this out or I won't be able to sleep at all!

    PHB2 Affiliations - How well do they play?

    I updated the Planescape factions as affiliations for a Planescape I ran last year, but I had to cut the game short because of a personal tragedy. When I was ready to run a game again, we decided to give Eberron another try instead. At first, I started working on making affiliations for all the...

    Wizards 2008 releases?

    This has been suggested since before the first environment book was even released, back when it was just Far Corners of the World at wizards.com. Despite all that momentum, WotC does not seem to want to publish a forest/jungle/swamp book.

    The Magic-Walmart myth

    Yes, we are real. We have players who want to sell magic items they don't want, and who know the market price for magic items they do want. We don't have the time to populate every single NPC and store in a community with appropriate magic items, nor the inclination to grind the session to a...

    Int = IQ?

    I kind of use it as a baseline to tell me when I'm playing a character who's more, less or as intelligent as me. I've been given IQ tests a couple of times and I have a rough idea of what mine is.

    Dragon #357

    There was a thread about it a couple of weeks ago. I haven't seen mine, and this is about the time in the month where I give up and pay for a copy off the newsstands.

    More wizards rumor mongering...

    I've seen some of the posts that've been deleted. These are the people who cannot stop posting hateful things about WotC no matter the discussion. What happened in this case was probably that the mods deleted a thread that had some merit, but broke the CoC in some tangental way. So the WizO...

    Piratecat - essential to ENWorld, or sacred cow?

    Piratecat is on his way out. Intellifilters are the way of the future.

    What's this I hear about Wizards suing WizKids??

    So a teacher, a garbage collector and a lawyer are standing at the pearly gates..

    Borders Stopped Stocking D&D Minis

    The same thing has happened all over here, and I'll tell you why it is. No store- not Borders, not Barnes & Noble, not Hobby Town, not LGS- can carry DDM packs where they're not under constant supervision. They're a great moneymaker, yes, but if you leave a box out it will be opened and after...

    What's this I hear about Wizards suing WizKids??

    The last I heard both sides were saying no legal action is planned over the patent. If someone went to court about it, they had a very sudden change of heart.

    Is the "official D&D product" really that big a deal?

    Really? That surprises me. It's been my experience that most people I encounter don't know much or anything about Kalamar, and are surprised to learn it has an official label. On the other hand, most folks know that Paizo now publishes Dragon, but the magazine's content is sanctioned by WotC...

    Do you participate in Polls?

    None of the options clearly represent my stance on the issue, so I have declined to vote.

    An interesting conundrum with the DI...thoughts?

    Comparing it to the "conflict of interest" that arises with everything else they publish, no. But in the case of adventures, I think it's pretty likely. The current $20 price is outrageous, the new formula WotC wanted to impress everyone with is getting older and showing its limitations, and...

    I'm done with ironic threads

    I'm tired of every preposterous thread getting its own satirical spinoff. It legitimizes the essential threadcrap by taking it elsewhere: in a new thread, you can say "this discussion is silly" without the immediate reply of helpful EN Worlders welcoming you not to contribute to the discussion...

    Asking what others would do about a situation that is going on in my game

    I would not allow evil characters because I don't find inter-party conflict to be fun or productive. It sounds like you're concerned about the conflict to come, too, and I think that's wise. Even after the cleric of Pelor is gone, this character is evil and the player is really hamming it up...
