    D&D 4E Rich Baker on Gnomes in 4E

    While I'm willing to agree on Avariels and Saurils (heck, they're supposed to be in *1* valley in FR, right?), I think sea-elves have a lot of potential in a PoL campaign. If the idea is that civilization has been thumped by all of these dark forces and is trying to recover, I think there's a...

    Races & Classes by the Numbers

    Is that from the musical "Piratecats?" :lol:

    How do you pronounce Drow?

    Rhymes with "bow." :p -D'oh! beat me to it!

    The big announcement: 4dventure

    With this news, I have a terrible sense of 4boding... Ah well, at least 4warned is 4armed... "I sense... a great disturbance in the 4ce, as if millions of voices cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced…" There, at least I got that out of my system... :heh:

    Oots 445

    S/He did take some damage from the death knight (just before the dragon's head fell on it :] ). The "#" showed up immediately after the death knight fireballed everyone. And s/he did cast at least one defensive spell: Protection from Arrows. It blocked the errant poison arrow. Edit: D'oh...

    WotC is going online. What do you want the digital initiative to be?

    Assuming that the usefulness of the content will be similar to what has been in recent Dungeon and Dragon magazines, I'd be interested in a Print on Demand option: The content is all going to be online, but if a certain amount of it is released on a weekly or montly basis, then the volume...

    Pathfinder 1E Paizo no longer publishing Dungeon and Dragon

    The page indicates that subscriptions will be honored on the Paizo site as credit with some options as to how to use it, although they don't go into details about what the ooptions will amount to. As to why they did this, it's all part of the ongoing trend in the publishing industry as a whole...

    Two-Weapon Feats?

    Also, there is a Great Scimitar from the Sandstorm book. While not a Falchion, the damage is 1d8, 18-20 x2 crit, so it's similar. It's like the Bastard Sword, martial as 2H, exotic as 1H, so they'd still be taking EWP plus TWF and Oversized TWF in order to have a reasonable chance to hit something.

    More Maure Madness?

    Just as long as it's not "manure!"

    Looking for games in Syracuse, NY

    (Although it is for other boards...) Sorry to hear about the job hunt; I'm actually heading to Syracuse because I just finished an 8 month job hunt of my own and landed something there. I'm sure things will go well. Thanks to everyone for the food recommendations and (initial) gaming news...

    Looking for games in Syracuse, NY

    Me Too! Me Too! I'm actually posting to see what happened with the referral to the Eberon game, and whether there are any additional Syracuse connections? I ask because I'm also moving to Syracuse in a few weeks and looking for groups. (From Buffalo, where I have been; I really like the...

    The GF in the Game

    Do the rest of your players hog the covers and jab you with their feet often?!?

    Jail Break.

    Couple considerations: -Obviously, who else is in the jail. Two options come to mind: First, if the party thinks it's a good idea to break someone out during the coming blizzard (hehe) maybe someone else does, too. Could be that one of the other prisoners has allies coming for them, too. Or...

    Help me reward a player

    If the archer is also an apothecary, you might give him an ancient tome of elven lore that contains, coded within its elven verses, formulae for various useful compunds. As he progresses in level, assuming he continues to study the book (and maybe takes some levels in Decipher Script and/or...

    [Age of Worms] Law in Diamond Lake? (Potential spoilers!)

    Well, the way that you and some of the other people responding frame the argument suggests that the debate was literally of the "violating his Constiutional rights" variety, but I feel the need to ask directly: was this the case? Assuming for the moment that it was, did you immediately fall...

    When building a new PC...

    I went with the blend... When I get the word that we'll be starting up a new campaign, I go reading through all of the class mechanics and do the "Oh, that would be neat...," but once something catches my eye, I go back and pick out some of the flavor nuggets that I like (whether they're good on...
