My problem with that is that Nerath was a nice basis for a GM to take off and run. It's a nice middle road for those who do not wish to start from scratch but also do not want to try mix their campaign into a well detailed world like Faerun.

So far I'm liking what I'm seeing in the PHB but I noticed one thing that kind of bothers me. There is mention of Dragonlance, Greyhawk, and of course Forgotten Realms all through the PHB but NOTHING about Nerath. Now I understand that this world never got a setting although the Monsters of...

John Rogers - Dungeons and Dragons comic books

Fiest, Raymond E. - Riftwar Saga.

I wish it reviewed the content more. The pictures are great but they will not affect the actual game.

Anyone think the level 18 ability is kind of lame? So if I cast an 8d6 damage fireball and I get a 6 , I get an extra d6. Hold me in case I pass out from the awesomeness!

Yeah I don't think the article was a fair comparison. I think they are not the same products. The DnD Starter is really just an Adventure much like Keep on the Shadowfell. It's not designed to be a stand alone game. It's the reason why I actually purchased the product which is something I've...

There is nothing nostalgic about silly things from old editions. If they don't have anything clever for the trident they should just remove it like they did the Katana.

I don't understand why a trident has the same stats as a spear but costs more, weighs more and is a martial weapon.... I know this was brought up in the beta.

You are going to see non-"rule-supported actions" a lot in 5e. It's because stuff like this is supposed be left up to the GM. If you think it's not important of a skill then don't use it in your game. I for one will call for it quite often.

I ban awesome Class hybrids like the Paladin/Warlock. I would reach for the ban stick if someone came to be with a drow, vampire, or talking dog without a really awesome story to back up the idea.

They should have made two sets. One set like the did and one set with Eliminster and the other minis with the opposite sex.

There is nothing wrong with what you like. I just happen to like something a little different.

I want a feat at level 1 because I feel like every Level 1 will be the same as every other one without it. Background wouldn't do enough to change that. For instance, if a wizard is really good at fire spells, I want to be able to show that at first level. Not at 3rd level when they can...

The one thing I'm afraid of is the fact that spellcasters were really gimped for high level spell slots for the entire playtest. I hope this was corrected because it really discourages me from using high level spells in combat. And if I'm just the same spells I did at lower levels then where...

You understand!

Also, if you haven't seen Weem's Mulenomicon cover then you are missing out!

I basically implied that the Mule was not in the 4e game because it made characters too powerful like hour long buffs, wish spells, and 10 foot poles. It was a satirical protest about how anything that didn't relate to combat was removed from the game and left for the GM to deal with. People...

Yeah , I felt it helped the satire if I added to the 4 year old thread instead of starting a new one. It does make me very happy that the new edition is more than just a dungeon delve game and includes little things like the Mule.

The only thing I have to say is that I hope random charts that fill the whole page are very rare in the book. Edit: Oh and he totally ripped off JJ Abram's joke of teasing us about the Falcon.
