    10 Characters, 7 Goblins, and a Hill Giant

    Oh yeah, I think they played it just fine. Six armed guys, one sleeping target. That hill giant perished like Julius Caesar in the Rubicon.

    D&D 4E Standing Guard in 4e...no rest for you?

    If you need solid rules, try this: hours 1-4: 1 healing surge worth of HP hour 5: refresh healing surges hour 6: refresh daily powers That's quick and dirty, but it should get most groups by.

    Beardless combat rules...

    I'm going to houserule that you can play beardless, as long as you have boobs.

    Higher resolution PHB pic on Amazon

    Mr. Reynolds seems to think that women have cartilaginous spines. I already know I want to play a dragonborn paladin for my first 4E character, but does he have to carry that bizarre sword? There's a fine line between badass and trying too hard. WotC doesn't seem to recognize that.

    D&D 4E Is my friend's unwillingness to try 4e irrational?

    Regretfully, I would have to let him go. You have done your best to invite him to continue playing. Let him know that your game will become 4E, and he is welcome to stay, or welcome to return if he changes his mind, but this is the game you are going to run as DM. What I would find...

    Alternative Names for Dragonborn?

    They call themselves "herpetians". Sages call them "dragonborn", though this is inaccurate. Most people just call them "scales", though some of them consider this derogatory.

    How do you pronounce "Asmodeus"

    Rock me az-mo-DAY-us. Although, I think that it's more correct to pronounce it oz-mo-DAY-oos.

    D&D 4E The 4e Mystery Race is going to be...

    Perhaps. But it worked. I got the attention I was trolling for. Seriously, though, I think it's just going to be orcs. That's kind of boring to me for all the fuss that's being made. I doubt it's drow. Too many people have expressed a distaste for all the subraces. I thinl WotC themselves...

    D&D 4E The 4e Mystery Race is going to be...

    If it's Warforged, I'm definitely going to be switching to 4th Edition... GURPS 4th Edition.

    D&D 3E/3.5 A message to the 3.5ers

    Proceed. Please bear with me a moment while I voice some opinions. "Bo9S is too anime!" "Tielings and Warlocks are too evil to be core!" "Give. Me. Back. My. Gnomes!" "Warforged are robots!"(are not!). "Dragon's Tail Cut is a cheesy name." I know I've missed a few. I've been through all of...

    New Design and Development: Pantheon

    And yet you display the symbol of Cyric as your avatar. Be careful. Both of those gods seem the jealous type.

    D&D 4E New Rules Compendium is insight into 4e

    The Table of Contents can be downloaded ar the WotC preview site. Basically it's allthe procedures, but no races, classes, feats, spells. It's unfortunately not as complete as the BECMI Cyclopedia.

    How different should Arcane and Divine magic be?

    I hope that the cleric's healing gets disconnected from his magic. The warlock's eldritch blast eliminates the need to load 1st level arcane spells with magic missle. Give the cleric something similar. At will may be too generous, though, for healing.

    Will drow be dark elves or dark eladrin?

    Ok I'll give you that and I'm grateful for it. I just hope that don't try to put them back in sideways in later splatbooks, renamed.

    Will drow be dark elves or dark eladrin?

    Let Drow be Drow Drow are no longer elves. They get promoted to full racial status. Grey/Sun elves are now eladrin. Wood/Wild/Sylvan elves are now just elves. Dark Elves are now drow. They are now all fey, instead of all subraces of elf. It's a purely semantic difference to me. I can see...

    So what's gold gonna be for?

    Let's get back to the ale and whores for a moment. I can see a rule that gives a +1 morale bonus for each consecutive evening of carousing, decreasing by one every day since the last night of carousing. Of course, that sets a certain tone for the campaign...

    Did any DM actually RUN the FR that way?

    I'm one of those DMs whose players disconnected after not buying my adjustments to the world. That was back in 2e, and I've homebrewed aver since. I know the change is going to bother a lot of FR fans, and they should be bothered. But between all the bad DMs using (ab)using uberNPCs and bad...

    Will You Count "Roman Numeral" Books As Core?

    Philisophically, I guess I belong to the SRD faction at this point. That doesn't mean I'll end up allowing everything that shows up in the SRD IMC.
