I don't have it with me right now, but I am pretty sure that the phrase "ranged striker" was used in Races & Classes to describe the Ranger.

I would like to see paths for: Scout (wilderness mobility, superior tracking and especially stealth) Archer Melee (melee powers, but with a choice to focus on dual wield or not) Beast Master (animal empathy/companions) As a side note, I was a little disappointed to see rangers listed as...

Yes, it does say, "With a minute of rest...", but since that passage, like the rest of the book, is more fluff than crunch I think it was written in more of a conversational tone than a statistical one. That is to say, I think they were using the word "minute" in the sense that it is used in...

I would like to see Charm spells tie directly into the new social encounter system (however that turns out to work). Perhaps something that gives you a bonus to social skill checks, kind of like a jump spell for Diplomacy. The player would then still have to get involved in such a way that...

Huge changes from 2e to 3e The d20 System's fundamental rule: d20 + modifers, high is always good Unified system of modifiers for all Ability scores Ability scores are incredibly more relevant Base Attack Bonus Multiple Attacks for all characters Totally revamped multiclass system with...

The new Batman movie has also been using such "viral marketing". The trick is not so much in getting people to "play the game" as it is to make doing so visible to other people who are not participating, and in such a way as to make a connection to the product being marketed.

They do look human from far away. Very, very, very far away. And those are small horns. Compared to oxen. Or dire yaks.

Don't worry about it. D&D is already cooler than MMORPGs. MMORPGs are mainstream now, and mainstream is never cool. Anyone who doesn't know this is too mainstream, and therefore uncool themselves.

Aboslutely. And I see this as something that should be firmly in the hands of the DM. Its a matter of taste. For example, I would probably let them have their encounter abilities back. But, then again, it depends on alot of factors. At what point in the game session does this take place? Do I...

Elven Sideburns In case no one else has pointed it out, I have been looking over the art in R&C and I can maybe allay some concerns about this little bit of aesthetics. When they say that elven males grow long sideburns, they do not appear to be talking about long sideburns down the side of...

I am of the opinion (in the absence of any rules information) that encounters will begin with determining initiative order and end when initiative is no longer important, as ainatan also suggested above. Furthermore, any time you are doing something important enough to merit a roll, you are in...
