    Fixing Sacred Circle

    I agree it's fine as is, Leader is a secondary role for a Paladin, Sacred Circle is great if you don't have a cleric and need that buff, Even if you do it's nice if the cleric has already spent his. That said, we houseruled it to also give +1 to death saves (Which feels right to us anyway).

    Words of Power?

    I half expect to see the sorcerer use this mechanic/idea. If not look out upcoming PHBs.

    Kill, Make Whoopie With, or Marry? 2e. 3.x, and 4e

    2e: I would make woopie, but the body's been cold for quite some time. 3e/x: I would kill, but too late, 4e already did it for me. ;) 4e: Woopie, I can't be faithful to just one game, especially such a crazy one :p

    Making your own power cards

    Since the Gold Amount is tied to the items level, can a formula not be entered in the UCS file that auto-fills/calculates the GP Value of an item? But, since their are so many variables, I can see that a large number of inputs would be required. If someone is doing magic item cards for the...

    XP for XMas

    I hope you get her a real present too. But a level's worth is a decent in game present.

    [Board Games] Settlers of Catan

    C&K has never taken us more than 1.5 hours. But we use the interbuild for 5+ players. We like the added tactics the game adds (like intentionally losing defense to screw other players) while still keeping the core of the catan gameplay. For the player wanting more hex setups: For 4 players...

    Top 10 boardgames on BGG

    Tigris & Euphrates is terrible, I don't know why it's on that list. Puerto Rico is pretty good, I don't know if it deseves #2. Surprised there's no Catan on that list to be honest, I guess "best" doesn't mean what's popular.

    Making your own power cards

    Thanks for the progress update guys, I am sure there are many folks here hanging on your every word. If there is anything us less computer literate folks can do to help let us know.

    Rough numeric comparison 1e-4e

    To be fair wizard and specialist are hardly much different in spell selection. I think he's only including full casters here though not dabblers like the ranger + paladin.

    What was so bad about the Core 2e rules? Why is it the red-headed stepchild of D&D?

    2e was what started me in D&D, one of my favourite editions of the 3 that I've played(I missed the 1e boat). It was very simple to use, but could do most anything I needed it to do. If I could change saving throws that would probably be my sole change. I'll probably run a 2e campaign after the...

    Order of the Stick 617 is up

    Hank is going to get promoted. He only seems to be going after Haley because he has to. He'll get the job and let Haley continue adventuring, maybe even help get Roy's body back.

    D&D 4E Homebrew RPG (4e based): Heroes of Legend

    I'm not attacking you or your work, relax, it's a summary of how I feel about it, which is all I had time for at the time. Here is some commentary then: -20 points for abilities seems low for a supers game, still in the normal range of D&D characters really. -This is further hampered by your...

    Are you a "problem player"?

    I wish I had more players like you.

    D&D III movie trailer

    Not Bad. Demanning, but not bad. The Wonderboy video would make a better D&D movie though.

    Are you a "problem player"?

    I am a bit of a problem player/DM. I'm a fair bit more into the roleplay/story aspects than the rest of the group(who to be fair are fairly new to the game and rpgs in general for the most part) and tend to try to force the group into roleplaying more. This might be a bad tendancy, but I'm not...

    Making your own power cards

    Awesome, I've been following(if not posting) this thread for a long time and this is an excellent idea. Unfortunately I have zero computer expertise to help such a project, but I wish you the best.

    "Balanced high," or "It's still balanced, but it's swingier."

    Has he actually played? Foam rubber my ass. I'm mowing down PC's left and right. Current average = 1 corpse/3 sessions. This is primarily with on level to level +2 encounters, nothing crazy. If the DM is bad at tactics than I suppose it might seem too easy for PCs, but half decent tactics...

    The New 4th Edition God-Killing Rules

    WoTC, Please, please do up the Raven Queen. You did Orcus and explained how the two have a powerful antipathy for each other as well as Orcus' goal of taking the Raven Queen's place. It would be nice to get the other side of the issue. Plus I can totally see a plot where Orcus manipulates...

    Nine lives optional rule

    I don't see the need. In the current campaign we've played 8 sessions and I've killed one PC already. Several PCs have gone from low life to almost dead in oneshot (and better rolling would have brought them below negative bloodied and to outright dead). Multiple PCs have had to roll the dreaded...
