BTW, I believe that is a clay pipe the halfling stuck behind his ear.

They already released a new version of the Icons of the Realms Starter Set without Drizzt. He was replaced by a new figure (bottom center), the others in the set are the same sculpts as the first set, with new paints. These came out about 2 months ago.

While I have been using flanking, I am now reconsidering. I had not thought about how it devalued certain abilities.

I voted yes, but what I would prefer to see would be a boxed set with maps of the whole world, including Kara-Tur, Al Qadim, Maztica, and everything else. Then the same treatment each for worlds of Greyhawk, Mystara, Eberron, and Athas. Full world treatment has never been done on any of these...

The monsters gain a little more than the characters do, by half 1 hit die minus 1 point, as the PC's first hit die is already maxed, but the monster's is not.

He wasn't talking about RPG veterans, he was talking about potential new customers to RPGs. He was talking about Mom or Dad or Gramma who is picking up something off a Christmas list. Those people familiar with getting the newest, most advanced system or game. Johnny wants a Players Handbook...

It is exclusive only until February, when it will see a much larger release, according to the Wizards Play Network. Not sure when in Feb.

I was at the Dungeons & Dragons panel at Gamehole Con this past weekend. One thing that was brought up by Jeremy Crawford (if I remember correctly) was the reason for not wanting to use a name like Player's Handbook II. It seems that in our electronic games dominated world, people see a title...
