I´ll run the heavily modded FREEDOM flip-book module from the 1st box. I really liked how this module started: every player was going to be caught and put into the slave pens, and i plan to tell the players this up-front. However, a lot of NPCs who are going to be of core importance pop up...

Moreover, if RISK played you with your friends, and called you "D&D", would you be D&D? Hmmm...

And people like me are saying that this is too much. If i want to change Comyr into a Bane-worshipping tyranny because that´s what i like in my Campaing, i´ll do it. I don´t have to explain anything to anyone. See also: Gygax talking about you being the "final arbiter of your campaign." I´m...

I shouldn´t even answer to this level of hyperbole, but did you even read the FRCS? - Maztica is gone because it should have never been a part of FR. That´s the best reason there is. It´s placement was contrived, unnecessary and had only one reason: TSR hoped it would sell better that way than...

Absolutely. I still don´t like it, but more power to you in your campaign. In my campaign, however, if i say "Alustriel never existed, ever" or "the Dragonborn blood cult has a sprawling citadel in the Quivering Forest", that´s how it is. These boots are made for walking. This setting is made...

And here we have the problem in a nutshell, which is repeated in gaming groups and on the internet: "If you change details of FR go on! As long as those changes make sense for me as a lore-lover, of course." THIS is the root of the "lore tyranny" discussion: "I don´t mind your changes as long as...

I would pay good money for a complete copy of all threads every created on the site from the beginning - i love to browse through stuff like this. The first thing i did when i found ENworld was go back to the first posts archived and browse through everything ever posted (not reading even 1/10...

I still like it, but i think the opinion of many hardcore FRers have not changed. Candlekeep is still a hotbed of anger regarding the new FRCS, and the Wotc boards are only now slowly recovering. And as this thread shows: who hated it on first sight is mostly hating it now. Who liked it (like...

- The desert constantly spits out new races and racial variants. - Rule of thumb: does it move? If yes, then chances are good that it´ll be both poisonous and psionically active.

My final guess: + Cleaning away the dead bits of TSR-esque basic software + Cleaning away the dead bits of different HASBRO-initiated "lets all have the same system, company-wide" initiatives that failed + Cleaning away the debris that was generated when Gleemax exploded + Cleaning away stuff...

That´s okay if you keep it to a minimum There have always been rumors that the Wotc "system" consisted of several legacy layers of basically incompatible software. Held together by spit and prayers. Maybe they go the slash-and-burn way and finally free us of one of the slowest sites on the...

Got my adventure a couple of days ago - all i can say is, sending a free module all over the world as an appreciation for DMs is awesomesauce. Keep up the good work!

Isn´t it sad that, even before i clicked on the thread, i knew that: a) there would be experts calling the downtime anything from "unusual" to "a sing for lack of competence." b) Shemeska would give a little "remember Gleemax?" speech? c) We would get "it´s been worse in China" posts. I spend...

Discussion, regardless.

I´ve always thought that Blood Elementals should get that "pick PCs up and hit the others with their comrades" - and i added that beside my DDI statblocks by writing it down. Now, this took me 2 minutes: Wow... thats all i can say. I even threw in another necrotic power. And it´s so...

I like her column, and she surely knows what she´s talking about. When i told my girlfriend about the "shrinks your clothing a size number while you sleep" monster, the look on her face was absolutely frightening. It said: "I´ll kill that. And then i raise it and kill it again." B-)

Just drop Wotc a mail through the help system and clearly label it "i want to get an RPGA number." I got mine in no time, and i live in Germany. No cards anywhere over here. Hmm, now, Wotc, how did you know that i needed a Genasi city right now? Ah, i love how you can do new stuff in FR now...

You are not alone. Especially the organizational thing is a win. I always have one or two articles sitting on my desktop, waiting to be read. I can categorize them and still download the full issue. And i don´t have to sweat the crunch they bring - all that is done for me by DDI. In this regard...

Don´t be so defensive. Yes, that was a joke. I´ll try again: I didn´t say that one generic setting made the other redundant. I said that we don´t need another generic setting from Wotc because a) they have one published (FR) and b) they could publish others they own the IP for and c) there are...

Please reread my discussion with Mournblade. I never said anything about Golarion being bad or going away - but this thread is about what Wotc should learn from Paizo. And one things the OP mentioned was another generic gameworld with support similar to Golarion - and i don´t want that from...
