    D&D 4E Rumor control: Lucca 4e seminar report inaccuracies

    Not to detract from your train wreck but I really need to pay more attention when I read things. I missed the "it" in that sentence. :o

    [Novels] Sell me on sword and sorcery books

    Love Zelazny but detest Martin over all... I would go and check out a bunch of reviews on.. Steven Erikson - one of my current favorites, there seem to be those who love Erikson those who love Martin and those that like them both.. there often compared to each other but are quite different I...

    Pathfinder 1E Paizo vs Amazon.com

    I have to say I've had good luck with Amazon. I live overseas and things pretty much always come on time. I order a lot. When things haven't arrived after they have been shipped Amazon has replaced the order with no charge and no fuss. Did have one item delayed until it got canceled but one...

    Elan vs. Illumians, which ones better?

    Rice-pires? How did that come out of Storm Constantine. I just reread all (well almost all) the wraeththu books. When I saw Elans for the first time I thought of not as quite well done wraeththu. edit...

    Confusion about pdfs

    I hadn't seen that thread (or maybe just forgotten) but unluckly it mostly just deals with problems at specific print places. You said No one really answered you here and most of my questions were about specific types of vagueness regarding pdfs. The answers you did get were about printing...

    Confusion about pdfs

    yes.. that's pretty much a given it's still nice to hear what people are thinking though.. on the issue of search.. I don't at present have a membership so can't use the enworld search. If you search through google even just targeting enword you get a million hits for pdf and printing. I did...

    Confusion about pdfs

    Hmm.. think you misread. I was talking not about giving copies to other people in the sense I think you mean. Handing out random copies is of course illegal. I was saying that if you had a bought a copy my understanding that having a backup copy was not illegal and that this was true whether...

    Confusion about pdfs

    Most the of arguments I have seen for this involve the preservation of media. Hard copies age if something can not be reprinted due to copyright and I have a legit copy and I want to back it up so all copies of it don't disappear as original hard copies die as far as I know I have the right...

    Confusion about pdfs

    I think this needs more thought than just a no I wouldn't try that. Say we get 10 years down the road and ebooks take off. Many publishers drop the print. Do we lose the rights to a product that we bought does everything become a rental? If I die does my wife now not get my pdfs? It may not...

    Confusion about pdfs

    I'm thinking about buying a number of pdf products at the moment.. but have some confusion about them. My understanding is that buying a pdf you have the right to print it for personal use. This is a basic right to change the format of a bought product. If I buy a print product I could make a...

    What is your top question/concern about 4th edition?

    Will the yearly player's handbooks etc be in the SRD? This will have a big influence on how 3rd party stuff develops and in what ways 4E expands.

    E6: The Game Inside D&D

    Have to say I like this method better.. It goes along with the Gandalf was a 5th lv wizard thing in that you don't have characters getting skill ranks beyond reality (give or take)

    Opinions sought: Much younger players?

    I don't see a problem with it. When I first started gaming (ack that was early 80's) I was in middle school and was gaming with a crew of theater people in mostly their 30's. Unless you are doing off the wall sex or torture scenes it should be ok. Just make sure the parents know where their...

    Changes to Devils and Demons

    That was my reaction as well. I didn't like them as they were. The whole subset of beings who are after your soul just never worked for me. Anyone want to explain why they like demons and devils so much?

    the "truth" about classes

    Um.. these classes/races from the 3.5 players book already are open content. 4e core at least the first books will be as well. I can see nothing stopping people from updating the old core 3.5 stuff to 4e. It maybe a bit different than Wizards versions when they get theirs out but people will...

    Skills?

    After reading all this I'm not sure where the problem is. It seems like people's biggest problem is the the thought that everyone might end up good at everything. If this is in fact a problem you could just require all characters to choose 2 skills or whatever that they will always suck in...
