Another error (thanks to this post on RPGnet): Shikirr is a Cha-based Quick Battlemind with the appropriate encounter power (Speed of Thought), but his ability scores are ill-suited for that - they're perfect for the Wis-based Resilient Battlemind build. He's got Wis 16, Cha 11; they should be...

That would be in Heroes of the Forgotten Kingdoms.

That would be sweet. Why don't you summon mudbunny and ask him nicely if he could report that wish to the CB devs?

Caught another error on Barcan's sheet: Blazing Starfall initially does radiant damage. Agreed. I'd build him like this: Str 16, Con 12, Dex 10, Int 12, Wis 8, Cha 18 Armor Proficiency (Leather), Improved Initiative AC: 15, Fort: 14, Reflex: 12, Will: 17 HP: 24, Surges: 7, Surge Value: 6...

Except that Thunderwave can push ;). This sorcerer just isn't built well IMO. (Seriously, AC 12, 22 hp, in Dark Sun? Now that's a challenge.) Ah, I see. I wasn't familiar with the new Marauder build. Good catch. From the Brawler style description on the card it should be correct, but brawlers...

First impressions: Barcan is more fragile than a glass cannon. AC 12 and a close blast at-will don't go well together :-S. Didn't notice any mechanical errors. Castri has a speed of 8? Probably an error, should be 7. Jarvix has +10 Perception, should be +4 from what I can tell (-1 Wis, +5...

Sometimes it helps to re-read what Bill Slavicsek wrote in Ampersand: "In January, 2011, our new front list products begin rolling out, providing expanded game options and materials for all players. We’re going to continue to use the lessons we learned from Essentials while applying the...

The third? Apart from "Dungeons of Dragonfire Mountain", what was the other one?

I cast Turn Undead on this topic. Similar to Undead Revenants the Virtual Game Table, this shows up quite regularly on some D&D-related boards. ;) The standard answer nowadays seems to be: "Wait for the announcements at GenCon."

So this one sounds and looks like it's part of the Essentials line, except... Player's Option? Did we do the time warp again? ;)

Yeah, by RAW I was mistaken. You can't push an enemy through an ally's space. Treat my initial post as "that's how I'd handle it". :o

Immediate reactions take place after the triggering action has been resolved. Immediate interrupts, well, interrupt the triggering action before it is resolved, and the triggering action is resolved after the interrupt. If I understood the OP correctly, he's asking for a way to change an...

In 4e I haven't seen anything like that. If I'm not mistaken, the PC doesn't have to use any action to move out of the way in this case; he does so automatically. Creatures entering/passing through a character's space usually provoke opportunity attacks but don't cause forced movement.

Ah, the hybrid one. Well, it had been announced as a hybrid assassin article, so I didn't really expect more than that. That said, I've been waiting for someone to write a bunch of useful (as in "not weaksauce") assassin powers, because they sure could use them. Regarding support, it's true...

According to this post over at the WotC forums, the Dark Sun pre-gens should soon be available on WotC's Event Downloads page. I'll keep my fingers crossed. From what's been posted here, divine power is absent in Dark Sun by default, as it should be. (However, I can see refluffed/modified...

Well, you can't boost them with a feat like you can do with implements and Superior Implement Proficiency. I'm not sure if that answers your question, though.

Hmm, while I haven't listened to Iron Maiden for quite some time, I guess the Powerslave album could be worth checking out (if that's the one with the Egyptian cover).

PH3, page 195. Monks can use daggers and staffs as superior implements, although the daggers aren't in PH3 for some reason (they're in the Character Builder). EDIT: The daggers are from Dragon #385.

No, but there's a new warlock pact (sorcerer-king pact) and a new build for the fighter (arena fighter).

I'm talking about the Dark Sun chars for Encounters, not those for DDXP. They're different pre-gens.
