    WFRP - THIRD Edition Announced from FFG

    Maybe they are aiming this at their boardgame market. I'm intrigued though, it might be something I could use to introduce my kids to roleplaying. On the downside, perhaps they should have tried the system on something else other than Warhammer first, and that price tag, far too high for an...

    $5 4E PHB @ GenCon!

    This is just healthy competition between 2 rival companies. In the long run this will reduce prices and improve quality. Nothing to complain about here.

    PHB Book Layout - Good or No so Good

    The layout, editing and indexing of rpgs in general are usually pretty bad, (Dark Heresy I'm looking at you). In comparison the 4e phb is good in performing it's primary function as a rule book. In game play it functions just fine on the odd occasion I have to actually refer to it. Credit...

    Easy-Go Classes for Beginners?

    I started up a group new to role playing to play 4e. It seems patience, plenty of advice and letting them learn from their own mistakes rather than messing with the rules is the best approach. Anyway, you would need a whole bunch of simple classes for a group like this. And different coloured...

    Goodman rebuttal

    So, if you can adapt to change, have done your homework and understand the market you can quite easily make money selling 4e products. If Goodman did so could other companies. Perhaps a rethink is in order, the market really is there.

    Necromancer Games-update by Orcus

    Speaking purely as a consumer (hope this helps): I buy my WotC D&D books from Amazon, they are heavily discounted & the p&p is free. The hardbacks have been of consistent high quality and I have a pretty good idea what I'm getting when I buy them. In other words, value for money. If I want...

    D&D 4E Do full attacks have no place in 4e?

    Full attack finished off 3.5 as far as I was concerned, its incredibly boring to use, far more powerful than any other choice available. Every combat was the same, charge, full attack, full attack, full attack, full attack, full attack........... Anything that could move out of the way made...

    I love D&D!

    I quite WoW last year so I could spend more time playing p&p games. I got fed up with the grind & repetition and wanted to create my own stories. I got a new group going made up of new and lapsed players. One of the new guys just got his copies of the rule book through the post as he wants to...

    things i like/dislike about PHB2 - a sort of review

    And those exceptions are all on your character sheet or power cards printed out in front of you, you don't have to keep looking stuff up in books all the time now. The core mechanics supporting the exceptions are the same, a druid stunning someone uses the same exception mechanic as a fighter. I...

    things i like/dislike about PHB2 - a sort of review

    It's important these feats exists to allow players to plug weaknesses in their characters if they want to, its not just all about buffing what you're already good at. I think the 4e approach of narrowing class focus and unifyied mechanics is paying off now in providing new and interesting...

    PHBII: big problem - druids lack healing at low levels!

    Go play some Scarred Lands, that should cure you of the notion druids should heal.
