    Because wizards knows that someone will pay it. Not me, but someone will.

    Excerpt: skill challenges

    You know, I think skill challenges are a great way of resolving chase scenes, navigating through a jungle, etc, but not for riddles or negotiations with Dukes. Those should be "roleplaying challenges"-- one where no dice need to be rolled at all and are entirely done by rp (at most a roll might...

    D&D 4E Is 4E retro?

    A point of clarification: BECM really stands for "Best Edition Creatyed by Man" and BE D&D is Best Edition D&D" Not everyone agrees, but they have always been my favorites. Now, does 4e capture its spirit... sometimes, in a few little ways, but on the whole, I don't think so. Too many "kewl...

    PLayer's pre-opinions more important than quality of system

    wow, people who like 4e are "open minded" and people who don't aren't or are sheep who are manipulated by those who aren't. Classy. Oh, bonus points to the guy that explained how people who don't like 4e are not used to "new fangled" notions like logic! When did EN world become the Fox News...

    Warlock with Paladin Multiclass Feat grouped with Warrior

    You see options, I see limits [any ability that specifically says you can do something means that is one more thing that other people explicitly cannot do unless they have said ability]. This killed fun and took its stuff on several occasions in 3.5 ("I swing down and grab the princess from the...

    Warlock with Paladin Multiclass Feat grouped with Warrior

    That the game has gone from "medieval fantasy" w/ very limited rules (making more room for rp) to one of endless $40 books filled with "Kewl powerz". Collect them all.

    Warlock with Paladin Multiclass Feat grouped with Warrior

    Nobody said that 3.5 wasn't like that either! One of the reasons I didn't like it much either. In 4E the similarity is more transparent, though. Wow guysh! I've got a schweet deck] build here. By combining white and blue I have a Tim with phasing and killsh any creature that doeshn't block...

    D&D 4E Love It or Leave It: 4E Multiclassing

    I think that Gestalt would have been a better way to go.

    What's your back-up game?

    Castles & Crusades if I can convince the group, if not, 3.5 or Pathfinder. All but one of us (The DM) have decided to boycott 4e, so it will likely be one of the back-up games.

    Epic Destiny: Which one will make it?

    Why isn't it all of them. Honestly, why do they have to jerk us around like this? I'd rather them not tell us anything than this kind "guessing-game" garbage.

    AOE Spells - 1 attack roll vs. All Targets?

    A party of PCs? Roll once, since they all have different saves. A natural 20? The person closest to the point of origin takes the crit, everyone else takes normal damage.

    Smuggled photos

    I'd prefer the half-orc and gnome races being in the book.

    Appeal of the defender?

    Very easy. Run a few games that end in TPK. Remark how they may have survived the encounter if they'd had a decent defender.

    Bloat already?

    Actually what we "didn't need" was levels 21-30 in the first PHB. If they cut out 1/3 of the levels (and thus 1/3 of the powerz, and half of the prestige thingies), there would have totally been enough room for Barbarians, Druids, bards, Sorcerers, & Monks. Also room for Half-Orc & Gnome in...

    GSL news.

    Hmmm. I wonder if it is too late to register a trademark for my new 4E company, "Red Shogun"

    3rd Party Classes - Wish List

    You know, I really wanted to like that game considering how awesome FFT was for PS1, but that referee thing in all fights making arbitrary rules was so unbelievably stupid it completely ruins it for me. Referee Class [NPC only] Infinity Hit Points & Resistance Infinity to all damage types...
