    Announcing: The Dreamworld Database

    When the database is released, will it be in accdb file format or mdb? Or will you make an executable out of it, so that anyone can use it?

    Whats the go with shields?

    Was there any real info on how shields work from the recent D&D XP? I remember shortly after 4e was announced that there would be a difference between a "sword & board" fighter, over a "longspear dex" fighter. So what do we know about the rules for shields? How do they know work differently...

    Starting wealth for 1st level characters

    Did anyone else notice that the starting wealth of 1st level characters seems to have drastically gone up? Where am I basing this info on? The character sheet for the halfling paladin. At 1st level he starts with plate mail and a heavy shield. In 3.5 full plate costs 1500gp, so is this just...

    Feat that gives Dex to Damage?

    If you look at non core books there are two options - one from Ronin Arts Feats for higher level fighters (or something like that), and Heroes of High Favour: Elves which has Improved Weapon Finesse. One needs a Dex 15+, Weapon Finesse and BAB +6, and the other I can't remember off the top of...

    Am I the only one?

    17 week mark is today (Wednesday) and the next scan is in 2 weeks and that will be the earliest that we may find out. I have always been of the opinion that I want it to be a surprise when a child is born. Now it boils down to - do we want to have two names picked out or four? We are having...

    Am I the only one?

    My wife and I are expecting twins, so unsure when they will actually pop. The due date is July 16th, but that is 40 weeks, and the obst told us 37 weeks is the max and anything from 28 to 37 is likley. And to cap it all off, yes these will be our first children. So twins to start off with, and...

    Current release date for the 3 core books?

    Just wondering if June 6 is still the release date for the 4e PHB, DMG and MM? I went to the local store to put the books on pre-order and the guy there wondered if I knew something that he didn't, as he said there is a "rumour" going around that the release date has been pushed back. So just...

    GENCON 2008 - Who's Going?

    Due to my wife currently being pregnant with twins and meant to be giving birth in mid July and in reality should be giving birth by end June, there is no way we are making the flight with 2 months olds and lugging them during the con. As her expectant date is roughly the time of GenConOz (held...

    Help Me Find Dark Fantasy Novels! Please!

    Wow, so far no-one has mentioned Anne Bishop. All of her work, but especially the Black Jewels trilogy is very much dark fantasy. You get to meet Saetan, Daemon, Lucifer. The whole overtone of the setting is very dark. Her duology of Sebastian and Belladonna is also dark with incubi (male...

    Forged In Magic for Non-Arcanis Campaign?

    I have the original Forged in Magic, not the revised, and I definitely think it is fit for any setting, not just Arcanis.

    [d20] Alternate arcane spellcaster

    Originally when I thought of a Travel discipline I was thinking like the read magic/detect magic one - what spells would you give at the appropriate levels - expeditious retreat, fly, dimension door, teleport, etc. But I never put it to words as I wasnt sure if that was useful. Looking at your...

    Is the Dnd Insider website meant to be separate to the Wotc site?

    As the title states: will www.dndinsider.com eventually be a separate site to the wizards site? or is it meant to be content that will continually be found on the wizards site?

    What did Gygax get up to?

    One of the hypes of this year's GenCon to conincide with the 40th anniversary was that Gary Gygax would be at the con. With the announcement of 4e I have not heard what things Gary got up to. Did he give a speech at the opening? Was there a bust up between Gygax and Arneson? ;) Do any...
