    Beardless combat rules...

    I think it's sad that the developers think this is a new discovery. My group has all had beards since facial hair rules were introduced in Blackmoor. I know a lot of the 11 and 12 year old kids don't have the attention span to grow a beard, but any DM worth his salt would at least hand out...

    WotC_Dave: Color Power!

    Come on, guys - in 3.5, everything is printed in black on a fake parchment background. Since 100% of the population has black/black colorblindness and fake parchment/fake parchment colorblindness, should we get them to reprint the 3.5 books? The color thing is extra, bonus information...

    Concerned About Character Creation

    I dunno. To me, picking some skills and taking a level of cleric or whatever don't make me feel particularly prestigious. Now, if the requirements are, like, "defeat a hippopotamus in single combat", I'm totally on board.

    WotC_Dave: Color Power!

    But he did NOT say, "I just finished the druid blacks. Great! Let's print the druid class in the Player's Handbook 1!"

    Re-using Powers

    I think that you can't trust the players to do what's most fun. Many of them will do what does the most damage, and then complain about the tedium. Look at Jason Buhlmann complaining that there was always an optimal at-will power to use, so he never used his other ones.

    Beardless combat rules...

    It can be done - Noonan says it's possible, although he admits he hasn't tried it. Perkins is way into it though. You have to adopt a more "theater of the mind" approach, though. It will probably go something like this: Player: Am I close enough to fight any of the orcs? DM: You're close to...

    Consistent parts of speech

    I thought one of the skill names was Streetwise.

    Rodney Thompson: Non-Combat Encounters

    Well, Chris didn't want his last name anymore. Maybe it was sold to the highest bidder.

    Diagonal wonkiness scenarios

    The first thing I did after reading the OP was Ctl+F for "contrived" to see if someone beat me to the punch. Thanks, Kwalish Kid. If you've ever played any non-3D video games - Ultima, early Final Fantasy, Civilization - your brain won't explode when you switch to 1-1-1-1. Experience with Chess...
