I'm surprised it hasn't hit the mainstream yet. Kudos to WotC, I guess.

You could just say that a character could only load 2 pistols during a short rest. That would significantly reduce the incentive to carry more than 2.

You're despicable.

I would have to disagree, but only to a point. There is rarely a good cause to lock pcs in a dungeon and throw away the key, but some of the best sessions I've ever played have been cinematic escapes. And don't forget the possibility of rescue. I rolled a rogue once and busted my own party out...

Love it.

He's talking about disabling a trap. Several of the excerpts have specifically mentioned using skill challenges such as this in conjunction with combat to make it more interesting. OP: I think it's prolly a full-round for disabling traps, or whatever the new equivalent is.

Definitely. Thanks meepo! Now to just try and focus on school for two weeks... arh! I'm so ADD! I'm never gonna make it through college!

Hey guys I'm stepping out but when I get back I'm going to pre-order the box set. Any word on where I could get a good deal lately?

Yeah umm... workspace? Really? I prefer not to be reminded of office jargon while I'm gaming. Maybe thats just me.

I would be pleased to find that minions were indeed used for summoning. I am a little wary, though. Minions are (apparently) exponentially stronger with greater numbers. What if the party had two casters? Would that many minions running around be a problem?

If it turns out that you need a light blade to make rogue attacks, then rogue/ranger all the way. Just having the light blade is his off hand will make him a fully functioning rogue, and the normal sword and the TWF will punch up his damage output. Plus he'll be awesome. When there is a sneak...

Man, I'm so hungry. I need food... badly.

It just means your healing powers get a +5 bonus until the end of the encounter, not a continuous healing effect. Same with the feat.

They mean two-hands on one weapon.

That is very intriguing. Obviously an extreme case, but I like your thinking. Genius!

It's strange to think about this, because it really never occurred to me. Most of my players get the vast majority of their magic items from dungeons. I think that we've been operating under 'Magic item creation is a lost art' as sort of a de facto standard. There are people who could make magic...

Oh, you did. No worries. I just... I was probably being over-sensitive. I just didn't mean for the "What if they do that for the whole campaign?" question to come off as though I was pointing out some game-breaking flaw. It's just something I consider an interesting scenario, and I was curious...

I ran a game once where the whole point was to beat the thieves/merchant guilds of city X at their own game. Their primary measure of success was how much money they made. It was very sandboxy, if you know what I mean. Obviously there was significantly more cash flowing than in a normal game.

Point. I'd play it.

Okay, I understand that the board is generally antagonistic, but please don't jump to the conclusion that I don't think it would work, or that I can't handle it. I was just asking for perspective. I've actually run some very bottom-line oriented campaigns and we all had a good time. I am a...
