Yeah right!

No, but maybe 4 5th level monsters would be a good challenge against a 20th lvl character. We don't know yet how the power scales through out the 30 levels. Stay tuned!

I believe that by what they've said, you can put more monsters and different monsters with less trouble and more harmony between them. So when they say 4E will have more monsters per encounter, they mean "you will want and will be able to put more monsters in your encounters, instead of "you...

That guy is really annoying. I'd like to punch his face. :] Not that I would punch his face, but the thought passed through my mind.

You know, they can just play smart and release D&D 4.6 ;)

I know that's a joke, but it would be interesting, maybe not to 4E standard rules, that in order to create a magic item, the character would need to invest his personal power into it, but instead of XP ability score pts. So in order to craft an item, the crafter would receive a permanent penalty...

I think it's a tiefling. Pretty much all religious articles against D&D are very old and outdated. I don't think I can remember anything recent about that. Thank "god"! :D

They really should put Iron Heroes on the "previews" list, alongside Bo9S and SWSE.

I didn't say I'll quit playing AE, but probably I'll devote my scarce gaming time to 4E. I also had a burn out of D&D, and then started playing AU(then AE). But I recently had a burn out of AE :D so the cycle goes on, now with 4E!

It reminds me of the "combat zones" from Iron Heroes.

Take a look at this article Monte Cook wrote some time ago: http://www.montecook.com/cgi-bin/page.cgi?otherd20_Spellcasters

Since Mike Mearls is the lead developer, people SHOULD take a look at Iron Heroes for some "previews", as much as they may do with SWSE. This game is all about characters managing resources, per encounter class abilites and, regarding this thread, rules for enviromental dangers and challenges...

What about now? ;)

The good old times are back. Enjoy them. This pre new edition release time is gold. It happens once in many years. Let's enjoy it blindly. If the new game sucks then we can just go back to our previous stuff. If we choose to be pre-grognards and the game eventually rocks, then we just missed...

Do you realize WOTC is based on USoA and it's capitalism-friendly country. ;) No one that has been screwed by business motives can whine about that, it is how it works in capitalism and you can't say you weren't warned. Don't blame anyone and go find another job :D

They are not doing it for phylantropy. The more other companies release books that require WOTC books, the more bucks WOTC gets.

I hope encounters are simply like this: You have 4 5th level characters, that means 20 lvls of power. If you want a hard encounter(50% chances of winnings for both sides) just put 20 1st lvl monsters, or 10 2nd level monsters. If you want an easy/moderate encounter(75% of winning for the PC...

I wonder if the power chart will be again a curve going upwards or just an stragith line. I mean, geometrical power increase as in 3E or an aritimetical power increase. If that's the case, it would be a reason for the 30 level. Maybe they stretched the 20 along most of the 30 levels. Also 2 lvl...

That's EXACTLY how "barbarians" (the class is called berserker) work in Iron Heroes, designed by Mike Mearls. Berserkers suffer damage and get rage points(Fury tokens) and use use them to activate class abilites like rage, bonuses to attack/damage, enhance speed, and other cool stuff. The...
