    Gunslinger in core?

    Over 100 responses votes yielding less than 5% yes votes. Seems like gunslinger is unwelcome to the core rules.

    D&D 3E/3.5 Perspective on the Edition Wars - salute to the 3e Camp

    'm NOT sure I agree, the sun has NOT set on 4E, since the sun is not yet near the horizon for 5e, still over a year away. And I am unsure why that matters? New 4E products are still being produced. Am Unsure if this is aiding or hindering "editions wars". . I have listened to 3E & 4E bash for...

    Is a Small Longsword type=slashing?

    In the REAL world a short sword IS a Thrusting (piercing) weapon. And daggers can be Thrusting (Stiletto), but I "think" most daggers are slashing as well. But we live in the REAL world while our Chars live in our fantasy worlds which sometimes does not mirror the REAL world perfectly. That is...

    D&D 3E/3.5 3.5E Player's Handbook II - the book that invented combat roles

    Pure gold, EnWorld won't let me XP you again, so soon. I believe Team concept existed in early D&D when you only had Fighting Man, Cleric, & Magic User. Before Thief, Dwarf, & Elf.

    Individuality and Teamwork in D&D

    Having played many editions for many years, I don't trust Players either. As for being a team: look at it as if 9 guys show up to play baseball. The coach discovers every body can bat, Great, but has 6 guys playing the bases, & 3 short-stops. No pitcher, catcher, non any outfields. A team it...

    Upset about another edition!

    Where did you hear that, More rumors that cannot be proven? Any one who could say something like that would be under an NDA, thus NOT be able to say anything. I did read a blog that claimed a large number of free lancers were invited to WOTC HQ in Sept 2011, but none f them said why (NDA?)...

    Upset about another edition!

    That would be a quote I would remember, but I don't. I remeber that all WOTC promised was that there would be no 4.5. Many gamers complained that 3.5 was out only 3 years after 3E. I think it would be erroneous to believe that WOTC would ever stop producing new "Editions", since they are...

    Upset about another edition!

    D&D 4E was released June 2008, so to Feb 2012 would be almost 4 years not Two. There are still 4E products being released, so still usable. 5E has no release date yet, but the good money is on June - Aug 2013. I play 4E weekly & enjoy the game. I don't believe that WOTC game up on 4E, as much...

    What's your favorite edition of D&D (so far)?

    Maybe, depends on how you look at things, as of when I posted this; 1E/2E 32.51 % 3.x & pathfinder 32.20 % 4E 18.27 % the others combined 17.03 % I'm a 4E guy, but I think you got to give 1E some respect.

    Cleric - Holy Warrior or Healer?

    I'm with Niccodaemus & thedungeondevler, & the others. I would like see If the 5E Cleric could be built each way having different options. Then no matter which edition you favor, you can build a Cleric in that fashion. Then everyone could be happy.

    D&D 5E Should Rangers Have Spells in 5e?

    I agree... In the 5E "lets keep everybody happy" mode, I think a 5E Ranger would best if at a certain level (maybe 4 or 5) your have a path choice. Choice of spells or more martial stuff (more archery or Two weapon ). So everyone can play the Ranger style they prefer. Even a Third choice...

    The core mechanic -- am I doing it wrong?

    OK, sure, But which people playing? I play 4E, my friend play 4E a few hundreds played 4E at DDXP, thousands at GENCON. Or the 1E/2E, or 3E guys. Which people get to "adjudicate" ? Just not sure who you mean the "people" are.

    My number #1 wish: No More Magic Marts!

    One of my fears is magic item creation. It can be just as bad. take 1 caster level then players have a bag of wands or weapons.
