Oh yes, the LeShay.... I love those guys. They're supposedly the original fey or something to that effect. I still might use them, in my 4e days.

3E underpowered? Not when you take a warlock, a binder, and a hellforged warlock, shake (not stir), and put in eldritch glaive. That particular 16th level character beat epic level creatures without sweating. I don't like 4th's multiclassing system all that much, but it's far preferable to...

My own campaign plot (based in New Forgotten Realms) Heroic: A hero (an eladrin swordmage, no name yet) has fallen in battle, and his lover has been convinced by the Church of the Last Hope (based in Balder's Gate) to commit suicide to bring him back. The PC's are going to attempt to stop her...

Not really. Avengers strike me more as the black-ops of the church. It may be inside the hierarchy but it's only inside the hierarchy in the sense that Jack Bauer is employed by the government.

I don't think Devas would make good paladins fluff-wise for one reason: paladins serve in a knighthood, which serves a church. A deva doesn't put up with churches much, going much more for the Invoker and the Avenger shtick. Therefore, Devas wouldn't make good paladins.

Love the Avenger. Normally I don't roll above an 11, so having 2d20 every attack means I'm actually USEFUL.... I LOVE THE AVENGER!

I personally like the addition of all these races. Fantasy is not just Tolkien, and even as a Tolkien fan I can accept that. Seriously, lighten up guys.

That "promotional" video didn't attack the disagreeing people in general, it just attacked the people who like to troll boards, hence the horribly funny image of the people (who I swear they just copied and pasted) as a trolls. It's a bad pun.

Orcus without a Paladin in the party? Scary. With a Pally? Not really..

Actually, Keith Baker himself says that Eberron fits 4th better than it did 3.5, and that 4th is Eberron's ideal. So I have a feeling that when that particular world has the rules to make it what it was supposed to be in the first place it'll be awesome. But then again, I'm just a fanboi.

I knew what I didn't want: a continuation of 3.5. My last campaign I had two power games completely ruin DMing in 3.5 for me. Now, I know I should have restricted everything to core, but good Lord I didn't know better. Regardless, within 3 months 3.5 was irrevocably ruined for me. I WANTED game...

I was thinking of just sticking in more modern-ist weapons, medieval fantasy be damned. Handgun (Simple Melee) 1H +3 1d8 Ranged 20/40 Off-hand, Single Fire 5 Uses, Reload Standard Shotgun (Military Melee) 2H +2 2d6 Ranged 5 Melee 1, Single Fire 5 Uses, Reload Standard Melee: This...

And people wonder where the 4th edition people got their insights into the somewhat magical moves of the fighter.....

Yeah, power sources (at least for the moment) are the "guides" of designing classes, like Justin stated. That's why it seems to be a silly idea to houserule anything of the ki power source (for example) because we really don't know what their "shtick" is yet. Sometimes things that aren't...

So... I've got the new character builder, right? I can't buy magical weapons because my gold piece limit is at 100. How do I fix this?

In 3.5? 24th level 4th? All the way up to 30. Honestly, epic level play is the best.

Where's this "hidden button" you speak of? I feel like the moron in the room who doesn't get the joke...

If there could be a conceivable sweet spot in 4th edition, it'd definitely be epic tier play. The stuff you can pull off in epic tier....:)
