And if people think they did it on purpose, people will feel that downloading the torrent is okay, because it is "sanctioned" by WotC. And if even one person who would have bought the books without the torrent chooses not to because of it, WotC suffers from the loss of a sale. All of which...

And trust me Korgoth, Lawyers are scarier than Ogres. :D --G

Exactly. In the game I playtested, my star pact warlock had powers from each pact. Some of them were chosen for synergistic benefit (Half-Elf with encounter bonuses to diplomacy, intimidate, and bluff? Sign me up), others were chosen for pure pwnage (infernal pact powers do more damage)...

I'd just like to say that I really appreciate your responses to 4e, Lizard. I have been playtesting for quite a while, and really like the system. But I've also been playing in a group of dedicated roleplayers with a phenomenal DM (Keith Baker). It's been very nice to get an unbiased outside...

When next you run the adventure, you must give the kobolds three rolls on Mearls' kobold success chart: --G

I would think that discussions of Greek Mythology might be the only place where rape jokes are appropriate. Zeus was a notorious transspecies rapist. --G

Nah. Really, it's more like judging a game system based on the intro adventure. --G

Would it be rude to mention that I was a playtester. We had a full copy of the rules months ago. Pbbttbth!! :D By the way 'Russ, what happened to your shoulder? You should go see a chiropractor. :D --G

Lizard, Props for publicly acknowledging a change of heart. Has this epiphany moderated any of your other views on 4e? In other words, are you now leaning toward making the jump, or is this more of a "Well, it's not as bad as I'd thought . . . ." comment? I think that now that you've...

And all is right with the world. The road to the cup goes through hockeytown. Go Wings! --G

Wow, all that brain damage only to realize that Psionic Repair is a level 2 SHAPER power. Since the psicrown is a power trigger item, my 'forged can't even use it. SIGH. --G Mods, please close.

Hi! I need some assistance pricing out an item for a warforged PsyWar. I'm thinking that I'd like to get a psicrown with the following powers: :1: Concealing Amorpha, Greater (Shaper 3) :2: Psionic Repair (Shaper 2) Can someone help me calculate the cost? I've done this three times and...

Here's something I think we could use: Themed encounters. F'rex: I want a 3 page section of different types of kobold encounters, complete with an XP budget and a variety of kobolds from the MM. A reason for them being together in this particular configuration would also be nice. --G

Karach blade. --G

Either they're exclusive, or they're like the rogue powers that have a little kicker for characters of the correct "flavor." I think it's likely that many of the warlock powers will be fey, infernal, or shadow, but that they can be used by any 'lock. I also think it's likely that warlocks of...

I think your math's off. They only need a +5 from strength. Now, depending on what race the characters are, that's not impossible at fifth level. In fact, that works if either of them put a 17 into their strength or dex. +2 for race (half-orc or elf w/ weapon finesse) and +1 at level 4 gets...

A safe bet would be +3. I believe that's what skill focus provides. --G

So then you're saying that there's no problem with WotC's departure from the OGL market, right? Because if the OG movement has been successful, then there's no problem with WotC moving to the GSL, since WotC is no longer necessary to drive that market. Since the GSL permits companies to...

That may be a bad example. IME, you don't want every character to have every imaginable skill. For example, dungeoneering is a skill that only one or two characters in your party will need. It's not a skill that is mandatory for participating in exploring a dungeon. Instead, it's a skill...

Clearly, the problem is that they mixed up the map scales between Eberron and Keep on the Shadowfell. --G
