Great stuff! I also had no idea ppl hated dragons so much; they are being mercilessley slaughtered in every playtest! A few things: 1)When the warlord first charged out of the webs, was this out of turn due to a power? And did this somehow allow her to break free of the webs, or was she never...

Bill Slavesick gave us the Elf race entry at the end of december and the complete pit fiend staty blocky at the end of Jan. What will we get at the end of feb? IMO since Elf was from PHB, Pit Fiend was from MM, I think this months major preview will be from the DMG. Probably an entire trap...

great,m thanks for the help. It should be noted the party has a warblade, crusader and also a duskblade. IMO the CR's in the MM were not built to take those classes into account. (The warblade especially can take massive penalties to increase its attack and damage by uber amounts, AND stack that...

@Kat: The raumathari Battlemage, one of the best and most powerful prc's for 3e, appears in unapproachable east (first supplement released for 3.5e). Its a remake of the classic Ad&D2e kit. Its also up on the wizards website as a free preview for the unapproachable east book. Just do a search...

Two things from mearls posts inj this thread I find disappoingting: There wont be unarmed maneuvers in the PHB There wont be assassin style maneuvers in the PHB. Ok I understand space reason, but come on. UNARMED combat is just as imnportant as sword fighting. I mean, you may as well have cut...

Umm, monsters diea at 0. HEROIC classed NPC's follow the same rules as c's. We are assuming we're playing by the book, and not implementing houserules (no matter how intuitive they may be) And it was annoying and stupid in 3e; it will be even more so now becuase unlike 3e, you don't keep...

I'm quite well versed in rule; thing is I haven't sent a dragon vs the pc's EVER when I run a game. My games are usually low magic, with more humanish opponents (with heroic classes/npc classes) rather than monsters. I also usually play other rpg's (starwars, wfrp, conand20, ironheroes, qin...

No you misunderstand me. And I worded it wrongly Its not 'weak' in the sense paladins can do uber stuff (they can't in 3E as well, splatbooks not included ofcourse). I mean one smite a day...thats ridiculous. Thats no fun; ifyou give a pc a cool trick, at least make sure there are options to use...

Ok, in order for this to make sense you need to have read the Death and Dying update (http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?t=218343 ) Now, this thread is discuss a certain aspect of this: the fact that this basically adds in an annoying subsystem which increases bookeeping instead of...

Hmm. Now that is silly. :P I hope that wont be possible due to some mechanic (bloodied??) we don't know about. lol...I can just see the ways that could be abused...

Hoo boy. I am NOT thrilled. I was hoping negative hp's, a silly and annoying subsytemic mechanic would be done with now that they had 'second wind', and since SAGA did away with it. Not good. Though I do like the play 4e now side bar! Hope to see these in every article now.

Well I was browsing hte SRD, and htinking either a juvinile red dragon, or a young adult white dragon (their BW is really weak, esp when compared to the reds) only problem there is that young adults have DR 5/magic; none of my pc's have agic weapons. (low magic game). I guess either I could...

Thats cool about the monk. The dnd monk is cool in concept, but flawed in execution (the whole becoming an outsider, slowfall etc made little sense) But the paladin, ouch. Smite evil ONLY once a day. That is treh weak.

So the monk doesn't get any fighting styles or something? He can't trip/throw opponents jujitsu style? No flying kicks (technically speaking) that cause opponents to go prone? So basically he walks up to opponents unarmed and whacks them. Bit boring, but oh well. And the paladin, how many...

All this 4e playtesting reports baout low level dragon fights have made me itch to toss one at my players as well. I have 5 players in an expedition to undermountain game. All will be level 3 or so when they take on what I hope to be a red dragon. Any tips on how to do this without a TPK? Is...

True, all are great points. But it still hurts that the duskblades spells basically falkl by the wayside as lvels go up; the Raumathari Battlemade (who can also channel spells tw, if I remember correctly) will be tossing fireballs and lightning bolts and ice storms while the duskblade is...

Just wondering, The PHB II had some nice classes. Now I'm wondering, will they ever make new Knight and/or Duskblade classes? Are they needed? See thing is, people will reply that you can multi-class using the core classes in 4e to achieve the same effect. But you could have made the exact...

Could you give a more detailed breakdown on their abilities please, especially the paladin and the monk? :D Also, any idea why the cnc phb is not up as a pdf?> They have a condensed version up, but not the complete phb.

Yeah but sadly for the paladin, unless that half-orc (who is probably a barbaira, or fighter/barbarian) has evil alignment (thus allowing the pally to use his simites on him) the paladin will be chewed up and spat out by the orc, esp when the half-orc turns on his rage.

I've heard the castles and crusades rpg has non-spellcasting variants of the paladin. I was just curious, could someonme give a breakdown of that class and what abilities it gets? What about cnc monks? What abilities do they get? Also, i've heard that cnc is not a complete game, it doesn;t...
