    E-Tools Limitations

    For what it's worth, everything in E-Tools graphically can be changes. The opening (splash) screen, the background (the athatch or whatever its called) and the icons. Perhaps the community will create some icons that are just a little more clear as to what they do?

    E-Tools Monte's Ranger

    I know some people have had success adding the Alt. Sorcerer from BoEM 2, so I imagine the ranger wouldn't be too much harder. Both of these are beyond my ability however.

    E-Tools: Where is the patch?

    It took over two years to get E-Tools finished and on the market and you want a patch the week after it comes out? I don't think you've been patient enough. :) At Gen Con, Scott Matthews said that it would likely be about 10 days until a patch came out. That was on Saturday evening, so I'd say...

    eTools: new extended stat block available

    Is there any way to get the system to list all the attacks? As it is, if just lists the first attack. For example, a 10th level fighter would be listed as +10 (longsword 1d8) instead of +10/+5. This seriously kills the usability of the stat blocks.

    [OT] Sad news, help me mourn...

    I'm mostly a lurker around here, but I've been around since 99. I work at a radio station (one of which is a big talk AM news/talk) and we only had very little information about what happened. I logged on to ENWorld and, thanks to Peter and others, I was kept up to date with first hand news and...

    GenCon was great!

    Hey, Klaus! I'm the guy who purchased your sketch of Legolas fighting the cave troll. It was great to meet you, and let me say again that your art is fantastic. I especially like your pencil sketch stuff. Of course, I've always been a fan of black and white pencil art. Keep up the great work...

    CR System--> :) or :( ?

    I love CR and EL, but its important to remember that its only a guideline. No two parties are the same, and its impossible to predict PC behaviour, dice rolls, etc. CRs aren't perfect, but decent CRs are better than no CRs at all.

    What are the odds of getting a good GM at Gencon?

    I totally agree. I would love to run some D&D sessions at a convention. The trouble is, there really isn't a lot going on in my neck of the woods, and I don't have the means to travel a lot. I only attend Gen Con every other year. I'd like to start some stuff on my own, but the damned RPGA is so...

    What are the odds of getting a good GM at Gencon?

    But it is up to the DM to ensure, or at least help, ensure that you are having fun. Especially in a competitive situation where part of the fun is trying to win. If you mess up rules and that ends up in the party getting screwed, then you are hurting their fun. If you are trying your hardest and...

    What are the odds of getting a good GM at Gencon?

    Here are my recent GenCon experiances: We played in the D&D Open, which was my first experiance with the event. Our DM was a guy named Nathan Christen, who was an excellent DM. He didn't know all the rules of the game, but he was happy to let us look up what he didn't. He was fair, he was nice...

    Book of the Righteous

    I picked the book up at the Green Ronin booth at Gen Con and had the author sign it. He wrote: "Andrew, don't look over your shoulder." He was very enthusiastic and seemed really nice. The book is indeed meaty. Its a bit pricey at $40, but you are getting a big book for your money. The cover is...

    Stat Block generator - update

    One of the things I liked best about your stat block generator was the ability to generate the Stat block to another window, choose "view source," and copy the HTML. There doesn't appear to be a way to do that with this program, which makes it less useful for posting characters to websites. Is...

    John Wick NOT Dead

    At last, my dreams can be realized. Thanks to these new "open source" cookies, I can finally achieve my goal of becoming the fortune cookie king of Chicago. All I have to do now is move to Chicago.

    [OT] www.dmb-bustedstuff.com

    Ok, I really have to chime in here. I greatly dislike musical arguments because it is impossible to define what is "good" and what is "bad" in relation to opinion. Better to argue the merits of the color "green" than discuss whether DMB is sucky or not. What, by the way, does skill have to do...

    Using Someone's Elses Rules

    Ok, I need a little clarification here. Let's say that you stumble upon a rule, such as a variant jump skill, that you wanted to use in a work you were creating. If the particular variant rule wasn't open content, would it be possible to rewrite it and make it open content myself? I mean, isn't...
