Eventually, rising transportation costs will make a move to purely digital formats much more compelling, and that will kill off Amazon and any other business that relies on shipping everything everywhere on demand. Anything that can be reduced to bits will be. The irony is that the FLGS will...

I'll give it a try for a while, will probably re-evaluate after a year or so.

I own 4E books and read them, but didn't have the opportunity yet to play a game. My last Eberron campaign ended about a year and a half ago, mostly due to the enormous time committment required to prepare 3.5e and the failure of the mechanics to support the desired level of action. But I did...

Even if they were bounced from the PHB, they would be included in the 4Eberron book, so I don't think you have to worry about that. I have had a lot of fun with them as the bright, pleasant, but creepily devious role they play in that setting. They also could not be dropped from Dragonlance or...

It's a role playing game, and basic or stereotypical personality traits count for a lot. There are huge personality differences between Gnomes and Dwarves, so yeah, I think they are important. Halflings, on the other hand, I find to have little personality distinctions from a homebody human...

There are over 600 individual miniatures, and depending on the extent to which you have bought into this, I could easily see where you would have too many to display. So assuming you don't want to display them, but rather need a place to keep them where you can get to them quickly and transport...

Well, there is an awful lot of walking. And loam, ah the loam.

True, I can do that, and will if I have to. But the enemy that did this to them once is only mostly dead, and will have the ability to do it to them again, later in the campaign, if they don't figure out how to combat it. I'd like to know what cool feat/spell to give it when it returns...

OK, my (Bob Arco's) players, scram. Start of campaign in Eberron. Characters were all created "five years ago" in Sharn, or arriving in Sharn looking for adventure. At the opening of the campaign, they are walking through Sharn feeling a bit disoriented. They come to realize they have...

Heya, For plot purposes, I need to impose permanent negative levels on a character that is immune to energy drain. Anyone know of a way of doing that within the rules? I know that I can just hand-wave it, but I'd like to use an existing mechanic. Thanks, -B-

For some reason, the local Borders was selling it for the same price as the regular PHB. I snatched it up immediately. The shrink wrap was off of it, so either they were selling it at a "damaged" price, which since it is completely undamaged was extremely generous, or someone got confused and...

Just noticed they changed the color of the cover graphic on the WotC website back to blue. Thas' good. It would have bugged me inordinately if it came out with a brown "player focused" cover. Ewww.

This also was my experience. Has anyone bought a Deathknell case in which there were duplicate rares? BTW, I see that the ENWorld Store is selling singles. Is this new?

There were 24 rares in Aberrations too. Assuming completely random distribution, after one case you can expect 10 unique rares and 2 dupes. After two cases, 15 unique rares and nine dupes. 'Course, you can trade those dupes on http://www.maxminis.com. Or, you could just buy the single rares...

Of course you can. http://www.popularcollections.com/miniatures-dungeons---dragons-d---d-deathknell-single-figures.html

Also, if the randomization bugs you, you can buy singles from numerous online retailers and some FLGS's. There is a list on Maxminis somewhere, but I generally buy from popularcollections.com or colossalgames.com. The commons and uncommons are really cheap and plentiful. Commons about 50...

I also use http://www.colossalgames.com. They usually have what I want. People who buy cases: do you notice any distribution trend? I mean, do you tend to get a lot of dupes in a case or do they take pains to keep the rares spread out?

Spoiler, but hopefully everyone who is going to see it has seen it by now.

I'd really like to believe it this time. I really would.

When you empower a spell that has a variable, numeric effect, but with a constant added, is just the roll multiplied by 1.5 or is the entire (variable and numeric) amount multiplied? For example, cure serious wounds heals 3d8 + caster level hit points of damage. Is the empowered effect...
