    Dragon 372 - Design & Development: The Gnome, the Bad, and The Ugly

    I loved the behind-the-scenes look at the back and forth between designers and developers. It is what I thought D&D Insider would be like. (For a comparison, see Bill's DDI News articles - very sad). Anway, looking forward to the Gnome Bard and Half-Orc Barbarian archtypes being fully...

    What PHB2 options are you most looking forward to?

    I think the druid will be a good choice for those wanting a melee controller (though not specifically a martial controller).

    Merged - enw/cm access problems

    The irony didn't escape me when I replied 'me neither'.

    Fun to Play, Boring to Read; Forked Thread: The Nature of Change

    I'm going to have to agree with the counterpoints to the OP. I do not want to have to wade through text while looking for a rule, which is what the PHB should be for. 3e is a game better played away from the table. ( I don't mean this as derogatory, since I miss this in 4e in a way.) The 3e...

    D&dna

    Humans and Dwarves could breed to create Muls on Athas (Dark Sun), though they were sterile if memory serves.

    Did You Buy the First Three 4e Core Books?

    Yes, got the gift set from Amazon, and haven't looked back. My 3.5 collection just gets mined for maps and ideas now. My 3.5 group has switched over to 4e and is running a converted ToEE. I started a second group and recruited more players that have never TT-RPG'd before. So far, so good...

    Changeover Poll

    I'm for 4e, but I've noticed I'm back to lurking more on EN World again. Not sure why exactly. On the topic of new players, I've recruited three new-to-TTRPGs players (one of which has in turn recruited three others and started DMing) with 4e. In comparison, I've lost two 3.5e players, but...

    With new novel reprints, will we see Dark Sun for 4e?

    Count me as one who hopes for a 4e Dark Sun in 2010. Psionics in PH3 (crosses fingers) and a tie-in with Athas would make nice synergy. Unfortunately, psionics seems to be either 'love it' / 'hate it' phenomenon. Would that much emphasis on psionics in one year be wise? I don't know. I...

    Janurary Editorial Calender

    Re: playtests My guess it is too late for PH2 playtests and too early for PH3 playtests, and the Eberron Artificer playtest is already out. I'd love to get a more formal update on how the artificer is turning out. I know Devs have been posting some on the WotC boards about changes.

    DDI Character Builder OPEN BETA Live

    According to Le Rouse,

    DDI Character Builder OPEN BETA Live

    Yes indeed, this is only a Beta thing. The developers have said that updates will done through the CB without doing reinstalls once the final version is released. I'm not entirely sure if this is for program updates/patches, or just for additional data and errata. I'm guessing both.

    DDI Character Builder OPEN BETA Live

    Yes, download it again from WotC's site. I just ran the installer again and it overwrote the old version, and kept all my existing characters.

    DDI Character Builder OPEN BETA Live

    The beta of the DDI Character builder has been updated. It now includes most of Martial Power (all except animal companions?), and the Barbarian, as well as other UI updates and tweaks. Still limited to levels 1-3 (the Red Box version of CB) EDIT: CB IS NOW IN OPEN BETA, that means everyone...

    Mac or PC?

    Yes, I guess the pool is a little off-topic without some background. It was triggered by the debate in the OP link about WotC's choice to support PC only with its suite of DDI Tools, specifically the character builder beta. All kinds of stats were thrown around, about how big the Mac...

    Mac or PC?

    Simple question, born out of curiosity and this thread. Which do you use (note: not which do you think is superior)?

    What is meant by saying that in 4e "Everything is core"?

    I'm glad they are treating more books as 'core'. In 3.5, I always hated that my Warlock got the short end of the stick when it came to support in later books, if at all. I don't play or DM in FR, but the Swordmage, Drow, and Genasi have made appearances in my games. For this, the DDI...

    First D&D Podcast sans Dave Noonan

    I miss Dave, for sure, but Bart Carroll does have a nice "CBC Radio" voice. I'm glad to see there are going to be continuing the podcasts.

    Dragon 370 - "Her Majesty's Secret Servants: Agents of Tiamat"

    Cool that the NPCs have worked up motivations and background, as well as stats.
