Corjay, I think you are still not understanding how you are coming off or in what way you were rude to Clark (Orcus). You made some statements that are assuming alot, and your last statement to Scott is like this too. All Clark did was correct your false assumptions. Clark is the owner of...

Healing Surges are the life force and vitality of the hero. Their own personal inner strength is called upon for magical healing and pushing through near death with second wind. Encounters in D&D 4e are like scenes in a movie. After a major event, the heroes either regather themselves or they...

I want to chime in on this myself. I agree with the posters who are saying ENworld is staying balanced and its the threads of the community that is focusing on 4e. Our community creates that content, not morrus or the mods. To state otherwise is silly. Second, ENWorld is a D&D news site...

I agree the 4e is missing that and needs it. The origin of the hero is a powerful moment in the telling of a hero's story and says a lot about where the hero came from and what his destiny entails.

Out of all the armies the eldar are one of the more flexible, yes. But, try building an eldar armored army. Their vehicles can't do it. Try building an eldar army with high numbers like tyranids, orks or gaurd, again near impossible to do and have it play well. Eldar do not have cheap troops or...

It is not that a player wants to copy Conan necessarily, its that 4e won't allow that sort of life path to easily occur without metagaming. Most players do assoicate the fluff of the game with the mechanics, and they should as the game implies it more than not. I know you can look beyond that...

I don't want to seem like I arguing with you, but I respectfully disagree. I've been playing 40k since 1st edition rogue trader and fantasy since the 3rd edition hardbound books. I currently have an army of eldar, black templars, necrons, and tyranids in 40k. In fantasy, I have High Elves, Dark...

I just wrote up a reply and the server timed out on me way faster than it used to. What is up with that? It logged me out to and lost my reply. In summary, Conan is a good example of a character who is better built in an organic/ simulation style customization. He is hard to reflect his life...

I listened to Mike Mearls interview on http://theoryfromthecloset.com/. They discussed 4e class roles and the theories behind them in 4e design. Essential, each role has certain strengths and weak areas. This leads to teamwork and tactical play as a party uses the abilities of their characters...

I am going to chime in with my 2 cents: I think it is possible to use real world cultures in fantasy settings to help players connect and get the concepts of the regions quickly. When you drop them in to close to the historical earth version, it does ruin the suspension of belief and feels...

I am curious to try an experiment, and see what our community overall wants from their FRPG experience. This thread is intended to speak about specific subsystems in 3.5 needing overhauled to make it run the best it can. In the poll (which is multiple choice) choose everything you feel in 3.5...

I would suggest you see things that way and are unable to see another perspective because you choose to hang on to and push your own negative view on to everyone else around you. It is the glass half full or half empty effect. I've had plenty of hardship in my own life, just as many others do...

Something that really hasn't been laid out in this thread yet: As characters in 3.5 get higher in level, they begin to remove obstacles or create major headaches, making it extremely hard on the DM to challenege them. Here are some of the issues with high level game play: Reliable Flight...

The Forgotten Realms Campaign Guide is released and in our hands. I like to hear about what you like and dislike about it as a campaign setting book and a 4e campaign setting. This is not a thread to complain about the differences between this edition of Forgotten Realms and previous ones. I...

This isn't an edition wars thread and the other post was put in the wrong forum. You are always so negative, please stop. Especially since you represent your company. Edit: @Jack 99, Glassjaw and Wulf: If I misunderstood Wulf's post then I apologize. His post seemed more like a subtle stab...

@RFisher - what qualities would the perfect FRPG need? @Wraith101 - How would you change the diplomacy and intrigue elements of 4e to improve it?

I like to hear what the ideal fantasy roleplaying game would be like for you. Is it the current official version of D&D? Is it 3.5? Is it a variant like Pathfinder or Castles and Crusades? Would you rather it be an all new system? In the poll answer as close to the choice for you. In the...

With the GSL in flux, many of the 3PP not sure which way they are going, Paizo doing Path Finder, many posts about alternative RPGS and 4e being more of your either love it or hate it type of game, I am curious what people really want from their Fantasy Roleplaying Systems. In the thread...

Commonblade, I had a big reply typed and summited, but the server stalled and lost everything I typed :P I don't have time to reply now, I will do my best to reply in the next day or so.

I like to second this. Scott and Linae, thank you for everything your doing to make the GSL a welcoming place for the 3PP. D&D's business model is obviously evolving and it is good to know WOTC sees the value of companies like Necromancer and Paizo getting behind them.
