I agree the rules are not the physics of a game world. That's crazy thinking like NPCs talking about their level when speaking in character or characters referring to the level of their spells or their number of hit points left. I want the world to be what it is supposed to be. The rules need...

I normally only keep a journal when playing. Making one for an NPC sounds weird. Is it like a DM NPC? Not that I'm suggesting it is. It's just strange. Maybe it'a campaign prop? Something to be found? I'm not sure why you'd keep one on the side, if you're DMing.

In all the time I subscribed to Paizo, I had only 2 problems. One was a shipping error where they promptly replaced a torn up magazine. The other was a missing issue I didn't realize I missed until the following month's arrived. It was never a problem. They sent out a replacement copy...

4E is the Rouse!!

Thanks

Couldn't the DM create all new stuff for a world the players don't know about? It does make sense to me that my character doesn't know about trolls so I shouldn't either. That way I'm not confused when I face one for the first time. Or maybe I am confused because it is the first time? Onr...

Man, they should not change Eberron. It's doesn't deserve to get the +100 years deal the Realms is getting. I get why they needed to have an example core setting to fit all the new rules. But couldn't they have a non-core setting as an example on how to modify that stuff? It's like the...

Which of these are we supposed to listen to? There are way too many and it would take days just to get caught up in almost any one of them. Are there any non-biased reviews on these things? I've found some cool interviews with lots of interesting game designers, but it's really hard to know...

I think the Grell eat the trolls' heads and occupy them for their regenerative powers. They stick their tentacles down in the squishy troll bodies to move them around and stuff. If the body gets hacked up, they fly away and are personally undamaged. It's a symbiotic relationship between a...

Okay. That makes sense. It reminds me of the time our DM split the group into boys vs. girls and had us all meet on separate nights. After awhile our male only group stopped meeting and we never heard from the female players or DM again. Go figure. ;) Are you still out there John Holmes...

This is crazy! I mean, sure, the DM does plenty of work and may even deserve a little cash, but I am supposed to believe I am a better player for having shelled it over? I don't think so...

Sludge is the one true method. But I must admit certain aspects of an adventure are possible to nudge without redesigning everything. Walking up to the BBEG is almost never simple as it would protect itself. So you would normally roll for wandering monsters, call for spot checks, describe...

If Wisconsin became a state in 1948, and thereafter the Chippewa, Menominee, Oneida, Potawatomi and Winnebago tribes were displaced, given the extensive hyperborean winters, how did the state's heritage influence the creation of D&D?

The best combo would include a Fighter type (barbarian, ranger, paladin), Cleric, Wizard (maybe Sorceror), Rogue, and Bard. Bards just make the perfect 5th wheel. It's their stick and their personality. :) Something off the wall but still workable? 5 nixie monk/psion warriors.
