Why can't clerics cast wizard and sorcerer spells? Hmmm... we could just have one spell casting class i guess. It would simplify things. Seriously, the same argument can be made as to why can't clerics cast fireballs... the basic casters are specialized to some extent. Just like I wouldn't...

Uhm, you said in your first post the cursed item "is the plot" of your adventure. Not one of many. Is it safe to say without this "plot point" your adventure path falls apart? This sounds like a bit of a railroad to me, as all the disgruntled player has to do to get rid of the item is "follow...

If that answer was known I think someone would have already taken that ball and run with it. ;)

Very funny stuff... "Humor" tag is needed so those with their briefs tied in a bunch can avoid these things ;)

Are they looking to get a piece of the MMORPG pie? Definitely. Are they anywhere close to the ability to get more then a crumb of that pie in the next 12 months? I doubt it. Role playing is still a social event that takes place around tables... even those that might play using a virtual...

Another vote for MERP... my group had alot of fun with that game. A simplified Rolemaster was the perfect vehicle for us ;)

so, not signing the GSL keeps all their OGL products safe from the GSL blacklist. i find this rather exciting... wonder if publishers will find a common 4e logo to use? as an aside, this might be the same route the gm-type software developers could take to dodge the GSL's software exclusion...

Your doubts echo mine. There is no way my players would pay $15 bucks a month to game when we could do it for free or for a one-time price with the other VTT options out there. Guest passes would be ideal, but to run a game weekly with five players you would need 20 passes for the month...

Very doubtful. The FBI generally does not get involved in this. It is the Music and Movie Recording industries filing of the digital world's equivilent of a search warrant with internet providers that get people snagged. People get served with civil lawsuits and basically a buyout offer if...

This would probably fall under Trademark / Copyright Infringement and or Counterfeit Goods. The Motion Picture Industry and the Recording (Music) Industry actively enforce their rights when it comes to their products. Publishers in the book trade have yet to unite to enforce any applicable...

I believe he is referring to the Straflight classic computer game... or am i wrong Wulf?

I think the poll options are overly simplistic. "Offends me personally" did we have to set that with italics? Where is the third option "Doesn't offend me personally but I can see how it might offend others"? So, I voted "Offends me personally" even tho it doesn't, but it is closer to the...

Maybe being focused in a career you are most suited for makes you just a tad more lucky when it comes to taking damage. Since HPs are abstract in the first place I don't see the problem with adding a HP to those that follow their race's favored class. A skill point would not be enough of a...

Just about 40% of my order was canceled... no idea which... didnt even think to check my email until i saw this thread.

Missing UA from first edition... it was pretty much core in all the groups i knew

Let's see... just started playing in a Warhammer 40k game... soon to start playing in a C&C game and plan to start DMing a C&C game with some of Monte's tweaks before the month is out. I'll be buying the 4e core books but whether or not I get time to play with them is another question ;)

Heh... the letters to the editor were amusing... I just don't think I've ever considered letters to the editor worth reviewing ;)

Why would WotC allow anyone to dilute the Dungeons and Dragons trademark? (we all know KenzerCo had a license for use of the D&D trademark due to the Dragon CD issue). Why would WotC even want an Advanced D&D game out there competing with their D&D brand? It isn't going to happen.

First I want to thank Rocco for bringing down the PDF price so that myself and others can sample his wares before possibly opting for the print version. It was a gentlemanly gesture and much appreciated. Now to the quick review ;) The revisit of Social Class from 1st edition's UA brought back...

Just ordered a PDF of issue 0. Thanks Rocco for adjusting the PDF pricing for those of us that want to sample before diving in with both feet ;)
