    Races and Classes in a Paragraph

    Here's a few more: Primal: Barbarian: A mighty melee combatant who eschews protection of herself to channel her rage to deal massive blows to enemies. They are strong, moving about about the battlefield quickly with massive two-handed weapons. Druid: Nature priests who can call on the forces...

    Tell me about your favorite non-rules DDI articles!

    There was a pretty good article on Rules abstraction, and while there were no rules in it, it was about running the rules, and it had some helpful hints. I really liked the "get the players to run the recharge rolls for monsters" and have been using it since.

    New Campaign Tools Info: The Monster Tool

    This is true, and I still use the monster builder all the time, since its still easier than looking stuff up in the book :P I'm totally looking forward to the tool.

    Monster Manual: Legendary Evils Complete Set!!

    I'm pretty sure I want at least one of each visible pack. This set looks quite good. great even. Not quite as good as Giants of Legend, but that was one of the highest points of the entire line.

    Free RPG Day is Saturday!

    My store was 2 items per. I grabbed Khyber's Harvest (and I think I may end up re-using it leveled up to like level 8ish and messed about with) and it looks great I also grabbed the Goodman games flip-book. Looks cool. Some of my game group should be going down later, (or possibly already have)...

    Monster Manual: Legendary Evils Complete Set!!

    They are a playable race in DDI and PHB3... there likely will be a few more. Then more in the PHB heroes set likely.

    Are you participating in Free RPG Day this year (2009)?

    I'm picking up stuff (and getting a comic and maybe some dungeon tiles and dice maybe) tomorrow. Bringing some of my gaming group. If there is a pickup game I can play in at the event I am totally in. This is unlikely.

    Free RPG Day is Saturday!

    Store need to promote the promotion, and put some work into it. Free Comic Book day is an easy sell. Anyone who can read (and some that can't!) can go in and grab some comics and start reading them/looking at them right away! RPGs are a hard sell (at first anyways) so more work needs to be put...

    Anyone Trying For Never Split the Party?

    I really want to know why they don't AT LEAST include Canada in these types of contests too, the cost differences are almost negligible. And they're paying for flights from Canada (and all over the world really) all the time because of MTG anyway.

    Best way to teach 4e?

    Then make them goblins! (with the same stats, but goblin tactics instead of shifty) :P For reals Kobold Hall was a great first adventure for one of my groups (My girlfriend, Her 2 brothers and her best friend) all but one of them had never played D&D before (and she hadn't played 4E yet) and...

    Best 1st level Adventures

    I really liked the Whispering Cairn from Dungeon, and I'm also a big fan of the Forgotten Forge from the 3.5 Eberron Campaign setting. Great introduction to the setting. And I really really like the short delve, Kobold Hall, from the 4E DMG. It had cool and well designed encounters.

    How should I get miniatures for my game?

    He's Multiclasses Fighter/Warlock. :P The Halfling Cleric has a shield too, but a single feat is not too uncommon to take,

    2010: Is it Dragonlance? (hint)

    My thoughts are this - Dark Sun is almost definitely the setting for next year. But this year is Dragonlance's anniversary so they will do something special for it - a One-off setting book at "double" length (400ish pages) It will be like the Campaign Guides in previous editions, with both...

    [Eberron] Best Sourcebook?

    In order my favourites are: Sharn City of Towers, ECS, Secrets of Sarlona, Faiths of Eberron, Dragonmarked, the rest. But every single Eberron book is awesome. The explorer's handbook is a little lame, but I think it is still totally worthwhile - I actually think I might pull it out at some...

    Would you have been upset if Gold Dragons WERE LG?

    all Dragons are unaligned in Eberron! so it doesn't matter to me.

    I have the Eberron Player's Guide and Kingdom of Ghouls

    I'm going to be quite happy using Dragonborn as is in 4E, the idea of their ancient Q'barran empire piques my interest. Why are they almost all in argonessen now? Did their empire co-incide with the goblin empire? before, one of the reason they fell? All very interesting. Also the tiefling...

    I have the Eberron Player's Guide and Kingdom of Ghouls

    As the DM I do have the right to say no. now I am not a stingy DM - a new player was putting out feelers to making his character last night with me and asked if he could play a warlord using the dragonborn race but fluff it as a human from karnnath (he's not fond of the idea of Dragonborn in...

    I have the Eberron Player's Guide and Kingdom of Ghouls

    PCs are special. In my game, unless there is a cool reason (backstory, planned plot for campaign etc) the Dragonmarks are going to kept to the 3.5 races. I'm kind of interested in the paragon paths for Phiarlan and Sivis (since I have players with characters in both houses right now.) would...

    What makes a setting dull?

    Now why I do realize everyone has their right to their own opinions, I have to respectfully disagree. Eberron is full of great Villains - even the leaders of every country is a potential huge villain for a campaign, depending on how the campaign goes. Some of the big bads you've identified...
