Blue/Green Age relics with skins of chitin or bone instead of metal. In service to the Sorcerer Kings, Elemental Spirits, Avangions, etc. Domain Powers/Feats from Divine Power make this inevitable. Different material constructions, refluffed as psionic items, etc. What about elves, or...

The funny thing about the movie behind-the-scenes: James Spader thought the script was awful, and took the job just to make money. Or so sayeth the wise and mighty Wikipedia. ;) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stargate_(film)

Except that the Swordmage, as well as the Drow and Genasi, are not exclusive to Forgotten Realms. They are exclusive to the FRPG, but only in the same manner that the Druid or Bard or Gnome is exclusive to the Player's Handbook 2. All material in the FRPG, as well as the EPG, are made to be...

Might be true for 3e, but that is wrong now. It's all developed and balanced by the same people who do the hardcovers now. And frankly there's been far more stuff labeled broken from the books than from Dragon.

No. Playing an undead version of your old character is an option, but it is not the default. The default is you're any dead person brought back to unlife. Well, because they're being tied so heavily to the Assassin - which btw is a) no more profane than the Avenger (and neither is the rogue...

Exactly. It's not like we're talking the shambling dead here. There are plenty of undead stories of fast, agile undead. Plus, with the focus on rangers, rogues, assassins, and (kinda) pursuit avengers and predator druids it's obvious the designers are going for a stalker/predator feel for...

Uh, it does state that basically you don't die until you want to as part of the final destiny. Sounds pretty true immortal to me. And the mechanics plus their racial feats make it near impossible to fail Death saves.

Well, there's also the part where kings, devils, and even gods eventually die. The free soul exists til the end of time. Or he gets bored. Whichever comes first. Maybe he gets bored and causes the end of time. ;)

I don't know where you got that. The consensus I've seen is that it grants at-will flight as long as you move a minimum of 2 squares a turn, since it doesn't grant hover. Customer service agrees.

[/LIST] Assassin is pretty much guaranteed to be Dex primary too. And for all we know it may have Con as a secondary. What? The fluff is "you tell the gods and Fate to go f*** themselves, and they have to accept it." How is that no the very definition of awesome? Actually, it's one of the...

Actually, we've had that for two months now - the Dominant Winds Sorcerer utility power in Arcane Power. Which coincidentally (yeah right) also just happens to be 16th level.

As the very existence of the Revenant, as well as pretty much every single source on the RQ other than PHB1 says, Queenie does not hate undead. That is a purely player based misconception built off limited (at the time) info that become the popular but inaccurate view. The truth is that she...

I still think Birthright can work well as an entire updated setting. :.-(

Yup, that's pretty much what I mean. Assassins can be the good guys too - James Bond, Jason Bourne

If they don't get the same amount of support the book races & classes get, as far as new feats/powers go, eventually they'll fall behind to the point where they're completely underpowered. The Tiefling Fighter support from MP is a good example of what I mean - without the support of MP...

It's no different from the PHb1 classes being exclusive to PHb1, or the PHb2 classes being exclusive to PHb2. The big question is how much future support will the Revenant and Assassin get? The Gnoll (the only current Dragon race likely to remain in Dragon, and even then some speculate it'll...

Maybe in earlier editions, but not in 4e. In 4e druids recognize civilization and progress as part of the natural order. It's when you get into rampant unchecked despoiling of nature like the goblinoids do that the druids get mad.

Actually, if you take advantage of their Int bonus by taking all the Int-rider powers, and play up the teleportation too, they make pretty good Feylocks on the Feytouched track. The Int bonus also means they make fairly good Storm Scourge Feylocks. Really, the only reason to say they're bad at...

Except that dragonborn (dray) and githyanki/zerai (gith) already existed in Dark Sun. It wouldn't be a stretch to add in the others.

Oh, I know that's what was said before Eberron actually came out. But it's not 100% true of the final product.
