    D&D 4E d20 Modern 4E - I want it!

    I'd say that for the most part, you could probably go better with powers to redirect damage and stall damage instead of movement; his films from Drunken Master onward tend to favor him staying in one place and redirecting combat around himself. However, I wouldn't think that features which...

    System-unique Feats

    Heroic Surge is incredibly useful, that's why.. it's fairly high on the power scale, as far as Modern core goes.

    D&D 4E d20 Modern 4E - I want it!

    I dunno how far they actually "curtailed" them, if you look at the reality. Those ranges are actually range increments, so it's more about "effectiveness" and shot difficulty rather than pure maximum killing range, as many rifles have a killing range which is greater than the range with which it...

    [Meta-Troll]

    Responds with an equally vehement post attacking Nyaricus's opinion and implying that Nyaricus is something obscene and highly improbable because another having a differing opinion would be impossible in the mind of this poster. Then reconsiders and goes on to add even more apparent hatred and...

    D&D 4E d20 Modern 4E - I want it!

    I dunno, there's definitely some "wiggle" room. Ranged Defenders are possible, but they need to have some ability to draw fire, but I don't really want to see too many defenders automatically going for SWAT assault armor. (I get why many would, it being the best possible armor in terms of the...

    20% item resale value: impossible!

    One of the differences between the modern trade in used goods and the trade in magical weapons in a D&D world is a pretty simple one: most used goods depreciate in part because costs to manufacture are so low that people who want the item can usually find the new version, which is usually what...

    [3.5] Most bizarre—yet playable—character concept

    One of the characters I've wanted to run was a cat-obsessed, possibly catfolk, possibly human sorceror (druid or wizard would probably work as well) who had a cat familiar and an awakened cat cohort (perhaps cat rogue?) who would spend far too much time polymorphed into a cat form. So you'd see...

    Warforged and Gender

    And you'd be right.

    The Best Warlock Pact

    Star pact, definitely. Associations with creepy Lovecraftian horrors rock.

    4E Symbols

    So they have. In that case, my answer is not really. It's not like I don't wanna help, it's just that my ENWorld-specific google-fu is very weak. I suspect it's like 5-7 pages back at least, though

    4E Symbols

    Well, they are usable here at ENWorld, at least, as Morrus has made them into emoticons for the forum. You can find out how to use them (and in some cases download the base image files used for the emoticons) in a sticky inside the main 4e discussion subforum.

    How do I pronounce "vaginarius"?

    Well, given that, if I recall correctly that the Latin word for sword maps to a Latin word used in the same era for the male genitalia, it's a very literal pun.

    The Failure of Gleemax

    I find the entire idea less amusing than.. totally bizarre and interesting, if only because I've never really heard of Buddhists going around and having such acrimonious arguments about the religion. I know there are some big ideological splits, but they don't seem to devolve to the level of...

    Warforged and Gender

    Well, I suppose you could look to Terry Pratchett. He deals with this concept in his own way, due to the golems in his work being like the Warforged of D&D in many respects; they were originally products, but now their "foundry" has been destroyed and they are working towards becoming their own...

    The Failure of Gleemax

    The heck if I know. I don't work for WotC. I'd just like to see them fix what I see as the mistakes they can now fix: work doubletime on getting their code (both on the web side and for the electronic game products) stable and bug-free before adding features, and work on building back a sense of...

    The Failure of Gleemax

    You got that right. I suspect the only reason they didn't get Uwe Boll to direct a D&D film is because he probably didn't think the property to be worth enough in possible tax writeoffs to justify it. Otherwise, I'm sure that's who they would have tapped, given their atrocious film history...

    The Failure of Gleemax

    ((tl;dr version: I'm unhappy with Gleemax and think Wizards has made almost every possible major mistake in their design of Gleemax)) One of the things I disliked about Gleemax was the sudden shift in personality. I suppose it could have been chalked up to the edition change, I think that the...

    Opinions, please! Is this forum valuable to you as a separate forum?

    I'd like to see the non-WotC stuff all get put here or perhaps put into a "non-d20" discussion board. But that's about the only change I want. I like the OGL/d20/Pathfinder forum being it's own forum.

    I miss CG

    Certainly, no individual may be utterly Lawful or Chaotic, but when you have deities that directly interact and speak with individuals and thus have a say in a society's actions, it can be perfectly reasonable to have a war between LN and CN gods, because the gods CAN be pure expressions of an...
