It's so weird though - take the PHB1 for example. The book is already thoroughly and completely pirated. It's on every torrent site. Everybody who wanted or wants to pirates already has or can. So what do we do... we STOP selling the official PDF... So that people who actually WANT to pay even...

Soon: "Due to increased problems with photocopying and scanning of gamebooks, WotC has decided to stop the sales and storage of all physical and/or paper-based gaming materials from stores. WotC is currently exploring other options that do not involve letting anybody else see our intellectual...

Wow, well, consider me floored. I truly believed that at this point in our day and age a company would have more sense than that... but I guess the heads-in-suits still rule the roost over the guys-who-actually-know, like they always have. Sad.

Maybe they're following through on that plan, now that they're farther along? As in DDI subscribers will get the chance to buy PDFs from inside DDI (probably for the normal PDF cost though).

This more than anything else is what fascinates me about the situation. Ok, maybe WotC did the only thing it could do; maybe it took the best option it had; maybe it has something good in store eventually. But no communication, no announcement, no explanation, no warning, no indication that...

From the WotC forums: You know, by this point you'd have thought someone at WotC would have raised their hand and said something to the tune of "Guys we seriously need to work on getting a better image of ourselves out there," but no not really a big concern apparently..

What gets to me (not too much of course, but a bit) is that I've already had a couple evenings of gaming saved by RPGNow's convenient "Download it again if you need it again" feature. I haven't had to do it with any WotC book yet, but I know it's only a matter of time. And now I know that's off...

Oh dear: This certainly stings me as a PDF-exclusive buyer and user of D&D. So what could this mean in the long run...? Here are my thoughts from the WotC forums: PS: I looked to see if there was already a thread on this and I couldn't find one, if there is, my apologies.

My group is almost the exact opposite. Their go-to and fallback tactics are Delay, Ready Action, Delay, Ready Action. Whether it's "to see what they're going to do" in the beginning of combat, "to let him get the flank" in the middle", or "to see him squirm" at the end, they'll Delay. And there...

Those sound pretty interesting, thanks... I'll definitely be checking them out. I also had an epiphany and went to RPGNow and wound up with AD&D 2e "Book of Artifacts", "Unusual Magic Items" and "Marvelous Magic", which should hold me over for a good bit :D thanks again for all the help.

Huh, right... artifacts. I wonder why I didn't think of that... good one. Let me rephrase the question then, because I still want as much inspiration as possible here, not just for this game but for later ones too: What "Big Book of Artifacts" are there, that are really good and pack a whole...

So I'm designing this adventure/quest for my group (we play 4e), where they will be going 'Locke Lamora' style* into a magical-item museum heist, trying to handle some extremely tough traps under a time limit and keeping whatever they can pry out and get away with. Now, immediately I'm set upon...

Actually, customer service has confirmed several times that the interpretation where every single entrance into the zone causes damage, even when they're being yanked one square in and and one square out several times in a single turn, is the correct 'by-the-book' one. Further to that, as far...

Ouch. That brought back some bad memories of those 'awkward' years... it's a good thing we get over those.

http://www.enworld.org/forum/d-d-4th-edition-rules/234834-please-remain-civil-folks.html#post4361752 VERY rude thing to do to a thread, btw, Mistwell.

Look. 4e combats sometimes grind. It's a fact. It's something that's been posted by people over and over since, like, July (I know cause I was one of those people *and* I saw other people doing it as well), it's been confirmed and posted about in other threads by me and by other people on these...

I wonder why you find it shocking, since he is clearly talking about a SINGLE combat, and has never stated that his combats regularly take 2+ hours. Nothing in this entire thread has made any kind of implication that this is a regular occurrence in his games. Could it be you're replying to...

Wow, that article is entertaining, and yet, horrible. I'm not a veteran DM, but I think I can say pretty safely that if I took that attitude into my game I could expect some pretty catastrophic consequences, like resentful players, storyline sabotage and a campaign that slowly grinds to a halt...

Hm, interesting point, however, since feats dont officially have that distinction, and any feat can go in any feat slot, that means that as more and more supplements and splats come out and more of every 'type' of feat becomes available, the Always on Damage feats are simply going to push out...

Well now you've done it.. I'm gonna have to go and check it out after a recc like that. Hope you're happy :p
