Seeing the Oni picture side by side with the current illustration for the Ogre Mage, I can't help but be reminded of a somewhat mean-spirited 'motivational' poster about Reynolds, England and how the latter wishes he'd be the former while crying himself to sleep. I'd even say it looks like one...

All of those and others, most recently a gnome. cheers

As another one of those DMs/players who finds www.d20srd.org invaluable, I was afraid of such a development, because they haven't exactly made it easy to be optimistic about the DDI, so far. It would be a shame if for all the streamlining of the rules they say they are doing, the process of...

I wouldn't be spending money on 3.5 products anymore, but I will most likely buy 4E products. cheers

From skimming over Races & Classes yesterday, I'd say some of the females could've done with showing a little less skin. Granted, that's also true for at least one of the males, and there's nothing near the level of bad that is a fighter type in a chainmail bikini, but still. cheers

My sentiments exactly. Not my cup of tea. cheers

If that's a 4E redesign, it makes me happy, because unlike the other ones we've seen so far, I'd actually consider this an upgrade. And I'd fully expect the wyvern to be one of the monsters to receive a facelift, so I hope this is it. cheers

I'm going with a PoL-ish setting for my next 3.5 campaign, which is a bit of a sequel for the current one. I'm not sure I'll stick with it come 4E, but who knows. In short, it goes something like this: There was a time that many took for the apocalypse, with a darkened sky spewing fire...

The new trogs look more like their 3.5 stats, but the old trogs just look a hell of a lot cooler. cheers

I wasn't interested before, and I am still not interested. I might or might not leaf through the thing when the guy in our group who just buys everything gets it. If he even does. cheers

I can't wait for the new rules set. But a lot of the implied flavor, the monster redesigns, the DDI and how the concept of the annual new core books has come across make me cringe. cheers

In a GURPS-ish game a while ago, we incorporated a similar theme. I played a horribly disfigured man who was actually a dragon who had not yet reached maturity. That was indeed fun. However, I doubt that idea would work very well for a race as common as the Dragonborn are apparently supposed to...

Gnomes feature prominently in my homebrew campaign world. And I'm playing a gnome in another campaign at the moment. So yes, I have been using them (about as often as any other demi-humans actually). Other members of my group have played gnomes as well. cheers

Teufling probably wouldn't have worked quite so well but the name's still likely intended to be based on the word "Teufel". As far as I'm concerned, Tiefling is a perfectly fine name for the race. I am not thrilled about a name like Dragonborn (and if I had dared hope, I would've hoped for...

If this is true, my guess was right. Damn. Oh well, at least it's not spellscales. cheers

I might be imagining things, but I thought one of the designers mentioned the familiars from Descent in a blog or podcast a while back, saying how they're fun due to providing different abilities without the hassles associated with a familiar in D&D. Similar to Divine Companion, the alternate...

Speaking as one of the people who probably won't subscribe due to the reasons JoelF mentioned, I believe they could reach more people if different subscription plans were to be announced. As unimpressed as I have been with their digital offerings so far, the tools are the only aspect of Insider...

Psionics. I wouldn't mind a nature-related power source for druids, shamans and the like (potentially totemists). cheers

If I had to guess, I would say something exotic, such as the Dragonborn. I haven't been impressed with any of the races introduced in the 'Races of' books, but if done right, it could work well enough. Given the tendency for somewhat goofy names so far, I wouldn't be very surprised to see the...

I don't know a lot about Greyhawk, so I can't comment on that. It seems to me like the whole point of playing in the Forgotten Realms is that there's the great number of novels and a wealth of other setting-specific material out already. Resetting it would never go over well with all its fans...
