    'Dungeons & Dragons' fights for its future

    There's a whooping 2 comments, ONE of which is: I think we'll be fine guys. The sky's still where it's supposed to be, cats aren't mating with dogs, and 3rd ed and 4th ed are/will still be around for all of us to enjoy or not.

    Interactive Dungeon: looking for programmer

    You've... you've missed... you've MISSED the SCREENSHOTS??? They're there, right under the first 3 tabs at the left (Mapping, Running, Combat Planner).

    D&D 4E 10 Things I Like in 4e

    You know what? I should playtest it. I have all the basic rules from that DDXP (thanks to the ingenious and hard working nerds of ENw). I should use those critters and create an adventure, then have my players pick a character sheet and run it. I think our SWSE game will have to skip a session...

    D&D 4E 10 Things I Like in 4e

    1- No more iterative attacks 2- Reach and AoO lessened, occur much less frequently 3- At-will/encounter/dailies 4- Races mad more significant with more useful/defined abilities 5- No more gnomes (at least in first PHB) 6- No more Druids (at least in first PHB) 7- Ranger actually a viable choice...

    Diagonal wonkiness scenarios

    Well, to you bud. To me, it makes the game a lot faster, a lot easier, and just a little sillier (actually, not really). I integrated the 1-1-1-1 in my SWSE game, and let me tell you, after our first space battle like that, we all (me and my players) expressed a sigh of relief at how smoother...

    D&D 4E 4E Liker - anything you worry about?

    Really, I'm fine with everything except two things: 1- Miniatures rules; when the devs/playtesters did their thing, did they actually playtest the new rules WITHOUT miniatures? If not, they're either not doing their job, or they want to force miniatures sales to their customer base. In either...

    D&D 4E Looks like 4e's combat is closer, and I LIKE it!!

    You missed something from your link bud: Your dude fired the bullet 230 feet higher than his target. That's why snipers adjust their scopes before firing. That's why one of the most important skills thaught in sniper school is estimating distance. BACK ON TOPIC... I'm very happy with the...

    Q re: wizard 'per encounter' power

    Reading the blurbs about the spells, i thought maybe it was possible that given "per day" spells eventually become "per encounter" spells as a wizard goes up in level, and possibly eventually "at will". In this fashion, sleep could be per day at levels 1 through 10, encounter at levels 11...

    Turn Undead

    Maybe the range is a base, like in 3rd ed. It's an increment, that imposes penalties on the attack roll each time an increment is reached. If we combine this with saga rules... Turn undead: Attack vs will squares 1 and 2: no penalties squares 3 and 4: -2 squares 5 and 6: -5 squares 7 and 8...

    Guideline for creating Feats/Talents/Powers

    The most important guideline is the following. If the feat is one no-one would spend a feat to get, it isn't good enough. If the feat is one that no-one would pass up, it's too good. If it's somewhere in-between, you're on the right track. The next step (which is a bit more complicated) is...

    4th ed, the Good & the Bad?

    The good and the bad? I'm pretty much fine with everything I've heard so far, even if some of it doesn't make 100% sense from my extremely subjective and uninformed point of view. I've enjoyed all iterations of the game so far, and have no rational reason to believe they'll screw the pooch this...

    Dell customer service lies, don't buy a Dell.

    I work in a retail store. Once, a customer ordered a part, and had to wait 2 years because of the the supplier. Not our fault. 2 years man. You waited 1 day.

    The status of the Cooperative Dungeon Project?

    Hi guys, There's many things to address, so I will start with the most important one for me: I'm stepping down. I have decided to do so a couple months ago, and only recently informed Mark about my decision. Simply put, my life has gotten quite filled in the past year, and CD's need hundreads...

    Cooperative Dungeon 04 -- When Heroes Fall

    CD's are a lot of work, and me and Mark want to give ourselves (and our team) a break, to be able to tackle the next one full tilt.

    Cooperative Dungeon 04 -- When Heroes Fall

    Fascinating. Mark played the beasts in a devious fashion (as they were intended actually). Too bad for you guys... you didn't get to see the MAIN dungeon. So close...
