    What's new?

    Well the original core book as printed have been rather heavily updated over the past few years, but the errata is easy to get and use. Other than a few clarifications on skills and DC, nothing huge has changed mechanically. Beyond that, there have been lots and lots of supplement books...

    Thanks alot WotC

    You're right... quickly now, my friends! We must all make haste to the Goodwills and Salvation Army stores in search of absolution and true gaming bliss! His WoW analogy alone is quite irrefutable! Why on earth would WotC even want to tap into the Warcraft market? I mean, everyone knows that...

    Thanks alot WotC

    Now now, everyone. This poor creature has obviously gotten lost on his way to the facebook D&D feed. Let's just point him in the right direction and send him in his way.

    Are Essentials more old school or just a clever marketing ploy?

    I know it is hard for hardcore 4e players like us to understand, but there are a lot of people out there who actually like the idea of having limited options. I have two essential fighters in my current game (A Knight and Slayer), and both of them have remarked how much they enjoy not having to...

    Ideas for Using Physical Money in Game.

    So, after a discussion about this with my wife (Also a seasoned DM), we came to one solution to keep the gold from piling up too much. By switching Platinum pieces to being worth 10 gold it creates a nice intermediate denomination between coins and gems. So, under this system I'd need. A few...

    Ideas for Using Physical Money in Game.

    I've recently started running a 4e game, and my group enthusiastically agreed to my suggestion of using physical money on the game. This is something I had done in the past in my 3.5 games. We would use pennies and glass craft stones to represent the monetary treasure that the party would earn...

    4th Edition Talking Points

    I absolutely agree on the point about roleplay, non-hardcores, and women. Interestingly enough, many the the 4e detractors that I've run into down 4e for not encouraging roleplay because the rules focus almost entirely on combat. They are so used to a system that has rules and restrictions on...

    Yay for Boxed Sets!!!

    Oh, but these new boxes are so sturdy! I can see them being schlepped around for a long time without falling apart. And besides, clear packing tape does wonders for structural integrity. I still use an old Mirrodin precon deck display box to carry around my magic decks and counters, just a few...

    Red Box

    I really love my red box! I got it just for the hell of it the day it was released even though I've been playing 4e since release. I have to admit that it's probably the best introductory D&D set that's been made in pretty well ten years or more. As stated above, there are some minor errors...

    Assassin Feedback

    This is exactly what I was thinking when I was reading the dismissers of this power. Not only does it allow for a coupe de grace with almost no chance of failure, but even in the worst case it causes the enemy and its group to focus on freeing the grabee to save him from certain death. So...
