As much as I had become jaded with WoW, this cinematic reminded me of what an excellent story Blizzard has put together over the years.

My first thought when I saw the image was "lightsabers."

Any new word on the Revised release? The L5R site still says Summer 08, and I haven't been able to turn it up on Amazon.

GTA IV for the 360 - very fun. Despite character being some sort of sociopath, maniacs, vagabond, or ne'er-do-well, I find them all very humorous and endearing. Oh yeah, and Liberty City is an incredible environment, one of the best I've ever seen. Final Fantasty Tactics 2: Grimoire of the...

The rules should not be so complicated, esoteric, and time-consuming that they "weed out" folks who might otherwise be perfectly fine referees and storytellers. The skills one needs to GM a game are actually quite basic; if one is playing RPGs, chances are those skills are there or can be...

I like the reroll mechanic. I like these weapons. I don't like the trend of rerolls for everything under the sun. We're only two months out, so I don't think we can call it a trend yet. But I fear rerolls will become for 4e what attack bonuses became for 3e: too common, too easy to obtain...

Nah, you didn't miss anything. I still poke around, though I tend post much less and favor the Story Hour boards more than anything else, as they are decidedly edition neutral ;)

Thanks for the invitation :)

Surprisingly... that is an excellent price.

I like this monster for two reasons: 1) in the right setting and location, an eidolon in Hallowed Stance could be mistaken for nothing more than a religious sculpture or statue. 2) two eidolons ping-ponging out of hallowed stance, along with a few other baddies. I zeroed in on this guy right...

Hmm... I'm not seeing that. If anything, the Fighter is dealing less damage for the potential to make more opportunity and basic attacks, and he's bringing more heat upon himself in the process. Since we are now coming up on our 3rd Defender class, I think what will differentiate the Fighter...

About to play a Warblade for the first time this evening, 11th level. Went for Diamond Mind and Iron Heart, but I'm aiming mostly for a defensive character. If nothing else, I'm wishing I had a few thousand more gold for some stat boosting items. Those will come later though. Still, I expect...

An update! Ah, it's like Christmas in August.

Considering that we're already seeing discrepancies between the compendium and the rulebook, and that the compendium is still a beta, it's a perfectly valid excuse. You may rely on those rules, but many (maybe most) do not. For good reason. To answer the original question, my inclination is...

The issue with making a tabletop RPG simultaneously online is that a significant chunk of your player base is not going to be using the most up-to-date version of the rules. They're actually creating rules disparities in the edition less than two months after release. It's a problem, no doubt...

It was definitely a fan service movie, but a decent enough film. It helps that I like Billy Connelly.

I'm going to say no, with a caveat that I don't have the books in front of me to actually take a look. They suffer the same problem with some of the elf feats, in that they won't have a racial power that the associated feats can modify.

I'm going to disagree slightly and say that this movie had no Main role; it was largely driven by its ensemble cast. While the Joker had roughly equal or more screen time than the actual Batman, there were IMO too many other characters who also had equally important roles: Gordon, Dent, Bruce...

Ah, glad this one's back in action!
