Does not follow. I can claim an orange is an orange, without also having to concede that an apple is an orange. We will not know for sure whether this is a an apple or an orange until we see the finished product (or its AoN equivalent) but I do not see any reason to assume Paizo is lying just...

(Bolding mine). Yes, if you exclude the things that make them different, then they are the same. Yes it is. Apologies, for saying that you had ignored them; I could have sworn that line was not there when I first responded, but you post does not say it has been edited so I must have just missed...

I could, but @pemerton has saved me the trouble. Although your nitpicking two of their examples while ignoring the one that you could not nitpick does little to convince me you were asking in good faith. EDIT: Sorry, you did not ignore it. I somehow missed that part of your post. :unsure: :oops:

Fair enough. In the grand Star Trek tradition it gets a lot better after the first season or two, but OTOH even at its best it mostly wastes the interesting premise so I can understand people's not wanting to watch it. Ah I see. I do not think it can be physically the same body we saw in...

Good point, I forgot that bit. Edited.

Just as a note, this is not true. The number of at-wills, encounters, and dailies (even aside from utilities) will always be broadly similar pre-PHB3, but it is not identical even in the first PHB. I do not think Blue meant it in an edition-warry way, but it is a common edition-warrior talking...

There are a lot of tasks that need doing to keep a ship running long term that can be ignored if you only need it to work for a few hours - you don't need to worry about routine maintenance or shift changes. You might worry about damage control, but if there is nobody available to do it you just...

I consider that to be a good sign. It meant the writers of this show did not want to bind the writers of a possible future Captain 7 show. If they thought there was no chance of its happening, that would not have been a concern.

Riker transferred to the original Titan from the Enterprise-E, not the Titan-A. The latter was new at the beginning of the season (albeit with a couple of bits incorporated from its predecessor), so a few weeks old at most EDIT: not counting the year's timeskip. We do not know exactly how long...

The first bit of the session was taken up by introducing the new character for the player whose previous character died last week. Then the PCs did a bit of exploring and eventually ran across a pair of quite scary undead. The fight went better than the previous week, in that nobody actually...

Thursday: Tough fight but nobody died.

My assumption is that it was damaged by the skirmish with the Titan (plus it needed work to strip out the fleet-mode circuits or whatever they were called), and they decided it was not worth the effort. Especially when there were persumably a bunch of ships that were in a similar boat but newer.

OG Data's emotion chip was a separate thing he could switch on and off - he experienced emotions, but not in the fully integrated way he is now. At least that was my take on it.

Not necessarily. @soviet was responding to my bringing up the 4e model, where the crit dice you roll are not the same as the basic weapon dice (other than occasionally by coincidence). There is, technically, a slow down compared with a regular damage roll, if you do the normal damage roll...

After a bit of preamble, the PCs saw a ghostly rider run down a villager, while ignoring them. They intervened, and the ghost continued to ignore them. After casting a spell that does damage to evil creatures, and noting that it did not damage, the party's oracle cast another spell which allowed...

Sunday: Ghost knight not evil. Parlay!

I played a full 1-30 campaign in 4e (as well as a few other bits and pieces), and that was literally never an issue. Even the super-casual players were fine, not least because it was right there on the character sheet.

Max normal damage, plus a little bit in the form of dice usually (magic weapons added a die per plus, and heavy-crit weapons added an extra die or two whether magical or not). It is my preferred model - the max damage means crits are reliably significant without getting too ridiculous, and the...

While I agree with the general premise that you get free-archetype feats all the way up, and (absent a campaign-specific restriction to the contrary) they can be from any combination of archetypes (subject to the usual requirement to take two feats before the next Dedication - again unless...

I (now) think that was a deliberate things to highlight the contrast with the bright and hopeful . Which is not a terrible idea in principle, but I think they overdid it (some more than others). AFAIAC, that is exactly how they did play it. He did not say as much out loud, but that would have...
