I voted for Dark Sun, but only because Zeitgeist isn't on the list. Gun-wielding tieflings and technology vs. magic FTW!

*WARNING SPOILERS FOR FIRST PART OF ADVENTURE 1 AHEAD* I thought I would share the e-mail I just sent to the rest of my group: "Team, The first report is attached. I think it has some entertainment value to it. In particular, I would check out the casualty list for the Coaltongue...

Hand crossbows do not have the offhand property. If your intention was that pistols do have the offhand property, let me know so I can alert our dungeon master. He already ruled against our tiefling weaponsmith hunter. The hunter is currently under the impression that he'll have to abandon his...

That gun probably wasn't very popular because the seven-barreled recoil was as likely to incapacitate the firer as anything else. However, in a fantasy setting, where giants, and ogres, and trolls exist, the recoil from such a gun wouldn't really be an issue. What do you say @RangerWickett ...

I had in mind other scenarios as well. For example, let's say my character has 720 gp. Depending on the way requisitioning works, there are two scenarios my character might pursue. Scenario 1: My character asks for a +1 Vanguard Rapier (level 3 uncommon). I fail my intimidate check against...

Hmmm... I was already thinking about taking training in Intimidate (it's one of the options for the Battle Awareness feat I plan on taking at level 2), but I know I'll be taking it for sure now. By the way, will you confirm the DC questions I asked above? If they truly are so difficult, I like...

Many of the items I'll eventually want to get for my character during the AP are uncommon. I assume my party members are probably the same. Therefore, I have a few clarifying questions with regards to equipment/prestige so we know when they come up. Just so you know, we haven't started the...

Palamon smiles. "Alternatively, let us be leaving Le Loup to his woods, and head towards that hill I have spotted in the distance. We can stop by that ruined house along the way, yes."

Assuming he has seen no landmarks of interest to the east or south, Palamon crosses back to rejoin his companions. "See, comrades, it appears this part of our work has been done for us, yes. I suggest that we head north into the forest, and attempt to rejoin Le Loup. Are you seeing anything...

"Wait a bit, Scarven-sir, I do not think it is meaning us harm. Perhaps someone has animated it to do their digging for them. I am not particularly hasty to destroy another mans tool, unholy or not." Given a chance, Palamon willl cross the road, well away from the skeleton, and glance behind...

I don't know what 5 will hold, but from the general atmosphere I've seen from the RPG community, I believe it might fail, no matter what it looks like. Here's why: Players A, B, and C: I hope they do away with the gamist mechanics. As long 5e has things like "powers", "healing surges", and...

I assume that there has been a significant loss of market share, but for WotC "significant" might mean 5%. No one knows the true number, but based on word-of-mouth, internet exposure, and core sales, I believe that 4e still controls a vast majority of the market (but obviously not as much as...

I talk quietly with my companions, "Shall we be seeing who this new one is then? Does anyone want to sneak up a get a good look first?"

While the others begin their search, I turn to Tomkin, trying to befriend him and pry loose any information he might be holding. "Now that we are away, Tomkin-sir, will you talk with me?" Assuming he agrees, I ask him a few questions while we explore. I'll be willing to answer any questions he...

Palamon nods. "This is agreeable to me. Shall we be wanting to maintain equal numbers in our groups? If so, one of our party may go along with Le Loup, yes? If this is not necessary, let us depart at once. Lead on Tomkin-sir."

"I find that paths usually have something at the end of them. Thus, my vote is to also enter the wood. Besides, I'm inclined to be walking under the scant shelter of the trees. It may keep us a bit drier, yes, since I suspect it might be raining shortly." I nod at Le Loup, then address the...

I'd like to add one more thing; I'm specualting about the extent of overall 4e book sales, but it is not baseless speculation as far as I am concerned. I'd imagine that WotC sets some pretty optimistic goals for themselves, and then sets sales forecasts a bit north of that number to determine...

Certainly, I'm speculating, but just trying to join many others in this thread :). Also, my speculations are that 4e overall did not experience low book sales. A reduction in upcoming releases may indicate, however, that recent releases did not experience the overwhelming number of sales that...

An observation about this thread: Several people have indicated as part of their overall posts that they believed that 4e was a failure, or was somehow not as successful as 3.x for WotC. Though their published strictly-RPG ventures (i.e. excluding board games and other avenues of recent focus)...

Palamon, not one to trust anyone so easily, especially seekers-of-fortune on a known treasure island, eyes the approaching group carefully. He searches for any tone, inflection, or subtle signs of betrayal from Le Loup, but especially considers the rabble, attempting to note any evidence of...
