Excerpt! Floating skull that shoots rays and eats souls. Nice. Supposedly the mentioned but unseen sidebar will tell us that you need to release the soul from the soul gem before Raising Dead on the character. Also, the (entire?) lich lore entry. Demiliches can be a hand? That's some nasty...

I've seen this a few times now. Has there ever been a statement from WOTC that the stored credit card info isn't just for your convenience and WOTC have it elsewhere? Because I'm worried that lots of people will get a nasty surprise if they are relying on that method when their subscription runs...

I just have to mention bunyips for water.

For what it's worth, the Demonweb RPG stats actually looked okay when I checked a sample, unlike those for Dungeons Of Dread and Against The Giants (which were made before the 4E rules were finished).

But... Sigil is already in the MOTP? OK, it will be interesting.

Runestar: Quite true. Probably worst with controllers (with their ability to stunlock) Jack99/Lord Tirian: Ooh, didn't consider grind in that instance. True too.

And not solos either. The encounter templates in the DMG mix roles (except Wolf Pack). What would happen if you built an encounter with only one role? All Skirmishers: Known as Wolf Pack in the DMG, I'll get this out of the way. Supposedly it can work if you have them split into "flankers" and...

Bah humbug. ;)

Biclops! Seriously, they've managed to make up new zombies, vampires, liches and ghosts for Open grave, and the whole giant/titan/elemental thing is a big deal in the default 4E history. They'll come up with something if they want to make "Size matters - A sourcebook of giants and titans".

Mmm, Brain in a Jar. Yummy! I couldn't care less about chapters 1 and 2 (undead lore), but I'll yoink chapter 4 (monsters) off the Compendium, and hopefully chapter 3 (lairs) will show up as a gallery. Edit: Oh right. I wonder what the new "stock monsters" (zombies, skeletons, etc) are. I...

Where have all the heroes gone And where are all the gods? Where's the street-wise Hercules to fight the rising odds? (Sorry, first thing I thought of.)

Another interesting effect of the orbs is the "Limited Rope Trick". 1) The orb's effect can be sustained for 5 minutes. (Standard max duration for "sustain" powers.) 2) A short rest is 5 minutes. 3) Ergo, the Wizard can suck the party into the orb in the middle of a combat and sustain the...

And since MM1 had a bunch of undead to go with Orcus, maybe we can expect plenty of monstrous animals (Demo's schtick, right?) to go with Emogorgon. But we don't know that yet. ;)

There's a Dungeon adventure for just this case. But I'd fourth TerraDave's suggestion. ;)

I'm giggling like an idiot now...

SimCity 2000. The transit advisor will flip out in allcaps if you reduce funding to his department. That picture is photoshopped, but he's just as ridiculous in the real dialogue boxes. (Pardon me for not commenting on MOTP, but it's my favourite book for any edition and I'd buy it if it was...

Sorry, couldn't resist. Nerd point if you get the reference.

To be fair, he said high elves. But I don't want one million elf subraces either, so I'll take the wood elves, high elves and dark elves and deal with it. /Devil's Advocate Hellzon

Weird. The window fits on my 1280*800 laptop screen, but it's just barely on the height axis. Hope you get it sorted.

If you want to be really picky, the "Elf" is the new core race - the 3.x Elf is more high arcanist that Wood Elf.
