    Are you excited about the Forgotten Realms setting changes?

    Did the Red Wizards get the shaft? I mean, they were the best aspect of 3E FR: changed from EEEEVIL to evil who spanks people by commercial expansion. Kinda like if Number Two was running things instead of Dr Evil. So it's a shame if they got screwed from the way of the EEEEVIL Shades...

    Fan-made material impossible until 2009?

    No actually my golf buddys caddies namesakes godfathers mailman knows people at WotC, and said that the ENWorld 'Houserules' subforum will have to be closed from the release of 4E until january 2009 . :p

    Hey, Morrus!

    No, I didn't, I'm locked out of my account and used this instead. You need to send a new one, details forthcoming. ;)

    D&D 4E Posssibility of 4E pdf's being leaked?

    The MO of those pirates who don't do it for the virtual pats on the back, is to usually RAR the file with password or encode it with custom codec. Getting the password / custom codec then requires you to give out your email address (for spam purposes or something more annoying), or installing...

    Should he recognize a rust monster? (Savage Tide Mild Spoiler)

    How did rust monsters come about, anyway? It's not like metal was available as food naturally. Anyway, it's a gimmick monster. A bit like gelatinous cubes, mimics or piercers. I'd have little qualms to use it, but it's just the type of stuff that defines D&D as it's own genre. The motivation...

    Should he recognize a rust monster? (Savage Tide Mild Spoiler)

    IMO there's a huge difference between never encountering rust monster and "everyone succeeding, all the time". Some of my groups in 3E encountered rust monsters, some didn't. All were challenged quite hard in their careers. Just saying that if the DM did decide to scrap the encounter, it...

    "in 1st Edition...every DM...assumed that Corellon Larethian put out Gruumsh's eye"?

    Sounds like it could've come from the Complete Book of Cheese. "Elves (and their god) are too perfect to fail by accident, so we'll retcon this into missing on purpose." As for the OP: sometimes mistake is just a mistake.

    Quicksilver Hourglass update... kinda

    Lord over lesser men. Find some fancy-prancy king, and then spank him into submission. Set up shop in his palace, and (mis)manage the kingdom. Don't tolerate insolence from anyone. Loot the treasury. Wage war on neighboring kingdoms. Not that you needed to do it, not that it was even suitably...

    Should he recognize a rust monster? (Savage Tide Mild Spoiler)

    Give a description, don't show a picture, give the PCs advance warning of the monster. Like the normal signs I suspect the monster would leave: rusted stuff in previous rooms / places. With this combo they might get an idea before hand by metagame (from the description), in-game (rust), or...

    Explain the appeal of critical fumbles to me

    I'd like to see the math on that. The iterative attacks have smaller attack bonuses, and thus have a larger chance of fumble if confirmation is used. So I'd say a fighter with 4 attacks at decreasing attack bonuses will fumble more often than a level 1 fighter with one attack. That's just my...

    Explain the appeal of critical fumbles to me

    I don't use them - it just doesn't seem to make sense that an experienced fighter would fumble more often than a novice. Also, how would people handle wizards' fumbling? I'd say it would tilt the power in spellcasters favor, if there's fumbling for fighters but not for wizards (which most...

    So... what about WFRP?

    There's a difference between obsessive killing and stealing, and genuine mental disorders .. oh, crap, no there isn't :heh:

    So... what about WFRP?

    My experience with 1E is that while deadly, it's not overtly so. I DMed the definite WFRP campaign, The Enemy Within, and there were some deaths, but not too many. Fate points are lost at some rate, but they can also be gained by accomplishing something. (If you believed everything you read...

    So...What loot did you score?

    2 DVDs (Simpsons + a finnish movie. I was shocked when the movie started and simpsons spoke finnish - luckily there was also an english soundtrack available) Leatherman Wave (it's coming) Book (The God Delusion .. an odd choice for a christmas gift) 2 tea cups (arabia moomi-series) Fuzzy dice...

    WH40K rpg book on Previews

    I don't think you can even play a Space Marine with the first book - that comes later. Which is a bit surprising since that's what people will want to play. At least I'd like to illuminate the dark future with the muzzle flash of my assault cannon :cool:
