Even now any wizard can have an infinite spell list ... the two free spells do not prevent you from learning new spells ... there are rules about this .. only some players do not ever read this because they just stop at the bonus spell for level.

The standard rule says you should round down at even levels and round up at odd level ... this prevents you from getting such problems ... every two level any class gets exactly the average points with no rounding problem ... :cool:

One of the things that upset me with 3 ed. is the idea that wizards, when gaining a level, just find a couple of new spell in their book ... coming from nowhere ( sorcerers as well, but they have a different story ..). Most of youngest player i know do not even remember about wizards having a...

I think this rule can be very dangerous, and if skillfully used will make the tactical game very difficult and challenging for most players ... anyhow it opens great possibilities for very expert players ... surely not for everyone .. i feel fighting movements will take more and more time ...

You can house-rule anything, but giving a fighter in light armor the same ac as someone wearing heavy armor seems to me a stupid thing ... unbalancing at least ... if you want to play a light armor fighter, you must learn how to use your mobility to avoid attacks, and take your risk, not just...

Along with the concept that diagonal count as the side of a square ( no more 1,5 times), we have to consider that in 4 Ed. Fireball ( and all the like) will expand in a squared space ??? Seems very odd to me :confused: ...

I just hope you are wrong ;) ... but only time will tell us :cool: .... maybe some kink of 3.75 will go on on his path ... I think there will be freedom for everyone to chose ... and besides ... after all, we do not know what 4 ed. will really be when June comes ...

Static encounters ... i use them sometimes, they are part of the ambient, BUT i make sure that my players will know in advance ... maybe a story, maybe they find tracks of the dragon, maybe a fleeing peasant tell them ... i would NEVER get my players in a situation they cannot survive, UNLESS...

Besides, i understand 4 ed. will mean they have to give up present adventure and most of their classes and PC ... many players became fond of their PC and doesn' t like to loose them .. if they are playing a campaing since 2001, like my players, i think they will not be happy to give it up...

Yuan-Ti (at least Purebloods) are cool :cool: !!! I use them in my game ... with their intelligence and wisdom they deserve an important role in all intrigues .. as they can confuse with umans and make proselites, they are fantastic acting in the swadows, behind the nobles !!

New is not always better ... despite few problems, i like 3.5 ed. .. i feel the idea that anything became suddenly bad just because there is a new release to sell, is not nice ( see Microsoft..) ..

I really thing BG2 is by far the best RPG i ever played ... all of what a RPG should be, or at least most of, BG1 second and NW1 next ... Ice Wind Dale was fine, but i hate the idea you just have to follow a story too strict ... NW2 was a real disappointment .. a lot of graphics ( maybe even...

I agree with most of your points ... except point 2 and 9 ... invisibility is non too unbalancing, and there are many ways to survive 'detect evil' for a skilled villain

The campaign i'm playing now is in his 6th year ... and yes, it is still fun ... ok, we play just a day every week, for 2-3 hours ... previous campaing ended after 5 years, but only because DM had to leave ....

You assume that 'fun' can be substituted with 'gamism' ... i believe this is an arbitrary interpretation ... in my opinion too much 'gamism' is very, very far from 'fun' concept ... and this is not the way D&D has always worked ... absolutely not. Of course it the assumption 'gamism = fun' is...

Really, i do not care too much about rings rules being tolkienesque or no .. after all Tolkien is important, but not the only reference in fantasy words and D&D ... is not a question of a different rule or two that upsets me .. what i really dislike is the subject of this thread, D&D4 turning...

Dragons are the elite of all mosters ... they should have the greatest magical powers ... i see them as pure magic in tangible form ... like in EarthSea by Le Guin .. They shoud be more, much more than just mindless brutes ...

I'm not sure to understand the new feat manyshoots for the ranger, so I will apreciate any help. Let's make an example. One of my players has a 8 lev. Ranger, with 18 dex. and skill focus lonbow. No magical or masterwork weapon. He should usually have two attack each round, at 13( 8Bab+4dex+1...

A Ring Of Spell Storing is very powerfull, can hold 10 level of spell in it, for a cost of 90.000 gp. I would like to scale it down, from 1 to 9 level, to make an affordable version for my players. Besides, the ROSS has no limit of spell level, up to the max. spell level of the ring is not...

Cool!!!! I've seen the conversion of Hungry Dead under http://www.enworld.org/cc/converted/view_t.asp?TemplateID=19. Very Nice. I plan an encounter that will shake my players a lot!!! Just a question (hope this is the right place to ask, otherwise tell me where I can post it). Does Magic...
