I'd probably allow the cannibalism, but have them roll for kuru. Seriously though, it can be tricky to weigh the pros and cons, and it is sortof an individual thing. With older players I'd just make sure to follow through with a full chain of consequence, but with children there are other...

My head instantly jumped to page 12 of the 3.5 Dungeon Master's Guide II. Was the person filling out that art order talking about you? :) For those without a copy, the illustration on that page depicts a winged elf dual-wielding swords, and the caption below reads: "A winged elf might be a...

Hello folks. I'm Almacov... I love both gnomes and kobolds and sometimes wonder if I should feel conflicted about that. In my heart I feel I'd probably prefer rules-light systems without level-based progression tracks, but I still can't stop myself from playing and collecting D&D. I find the...

I think I'm in the Medium category, but I may be leaning into Large. Counting Dragon, Dungeon, and Polyhedron magazines though, I'd definitely be in at least Large territory. I'm not really interested in having a collection that is too massive, because I'd never have time to read it all, let...

I have no idea what the average is. Some are over in a session, some last years.

I once played through an episode of Dr. Who without fully realizing it. Well, not until coincidentally seeing a synopsis online shortly after. As I understand it we were guided in such a way that even the ending was the same. (Along with most of the place and character names.) It was a fairly...

For the record, WotC does include monster stat cards with their prepainted miniatures, which can be fairly useful if one has a large collection. That said, the early 4e minis sets were riddled with inconsistancies between their stat cards and the stats included in the books. (Presumably due to...

I've got to admit, the first thing that leapt to mind when you used the term Redeemer was Unreal Tournament...

I really don't even see a problem that needs solving. Magic items are now something players are likely to prize and care about because many are hard to find/make and because there's a chance they will lose them. If players are distressed over the possibility of Rust Monsters taking away their...

Well, my computer has 4 gigs under the hood and it still runs like... well, it more writhes on the floor and prays it won't come to a complete crashing halt on the next click. I can get somewhere with it, but it's slow and I have to be lucky. I'm not sure how much of it is a RAM issue. It may...

Yeah, I have to admit, the owlbear is in my top five monsters in the game. As for the monster I'd be most likely to call a waste of pages, mine is probably the Blood Fiend. It's just so boring. It's got a couple more arms than it should, some sharp claws, and it likes blood. I'm convinced it's...

Heheh. This reminds me of an encounter I ran in elementary school. I had a really fast and loose sense of physics in-game then, which basically amounted to "anything half-plausible and cool can happen". Anyway, the party was walking through a forest and things were getting darker and darker...

I'm not one to get too analytical about the math, so I wouldn't worry about it. What I would do, though, is make sure there's some interesting terrain the party can use to their advantage if they're clever. Assuming you've got a forest setting planned, that could be as simple as trees to climb...

I don't really want to derail this thread, but personally, the reason I don't plan on resubscribing isn't that I don't want to use the character builder. It's that: 1) I don't want to rent it. At the time I subscribed, the character builder was a product that came with the service, and just...

This is precisely my situation. (Expiration month and all.) I've answered the poll with the "used to, but have stopped" option.

Okay. Thanks folks. Just wondering. =) (Out of curiosity, what was MP? I must have missed this controversy.)

Okay, I'm not trying to incite arguments or irritate anybody, but in light of recent news I've been wondering - What are the legal issues (if any) in creating a program that automatically harvests DDI compendium data (Through an active subscription) and stores it for personal use? How...

This is as I feared. I do not want the content I pay for to be tethered to and caged in WotC servers. I'm out.

As per this post, I will not be renewing my subscription.

... Is it wrong that I kindof want that eraser?
