As far as paragraphs go, it's generally best to separate each new paragraph with a blank line, rather than just indenting the first line of each new paragraph like you would for, say, a newspaper article. On a computer screen, it's much easier to read if you have that blank line between paragraphs.

olshanski: You're partially correct. From the longbow description on page 119 of the Player's Handbook: This makes sense, given that there's an upper limit as to how far back you can pull the bowstring on a given bow (and thus after a point, higher Strength makes no difference), whereas if...

Black Kestrel: Ah, I was not aware of that. It shouldn't surprise me, though - didn't the "gray alien" race from Alternity (the fraal?) show up in a Monstrous Compendium Annual back in the AD&D 2nd Edition days? And I seem to recall a bunch of Star Frontiers aliens being renamed and...

Largomad: Your views are shared by many. If you look through my past reviews of monster books, you'll note that many of them have comments, like yours, to the effect that I'm wasting the reader's time by focusing so much on stat block errors. (Several were not as politely worded as yours was...

You really should. You won't regret it.

No, I'm afraid not, other than the d20 Reviews pages here, which have all of my published reviews thus far.

Originally posted by Ryltar: And I'm looking forward to reviewing it. I haven't seen it yet in my area, though, and I've got a couple of other books ahead of it "in line," but I'll definitely be reviewing Lords of Madness before too long.

Here's the info straight from the PDF:
