    Wall-E

    At this rate, I'm starting to think it might just be impossible for Pixar to actually create a bad movie, given the constant string of successes they've had to date. I'd long held Incredibles to be their best effort prior to this one, but Wall-E has to rank as one of my top ten favorite movies...

    Staff Implement x Staff Weapon

    I though it already was? Doesn't it say in the PHB that staff implements can be used as weapons (the only implements that can) and are treated as quarterstaves for that purpose?

    D&D 4E Favorite 4E classes(all)

    Very close call between the Fighter and the Ranger, which have been two staples of my D&D gaming for a very long time, but Fighter just barely snags the victory for me.

    D&D 4E Shado's 4e Color Landscape Sheets v1.2: UPDATED 6/24

    Cool. Looking forward to checking these out when I get home. Especially as the v1.1 was quite the smash with my group.

    Warlocks, short on powers

    Actually, there's nothing saying a Fey Pact warlock can't choose powers tied to other pacts. Many of the Star Pact powers rely on Charisma instead of Constitution, and nothing's stopping a warlock from having high scores in both Con and Cha (especially if they're a half-elf), thus enabling them...

    Oots #569

    Vomiting, like farts, aren't funny in and of themselves. It's the situation that makes them funny. Like somebody letting roaring cheek-squeaker loose in the middle of Sunday services ;)

    Oots #569

    I'll admit, I laughed. But mostly that was because Belkar finally got a long-overdue and much deserved kick in the junk. For some reason, I'm of a mind to think the whole "Mark of Justice" was the DM's way of trying to reign in Belkar's player (who I'm convinced would be a teenager in the mold...

    Avatar, season 3, re-runs starting

    I think I saw it mentioned over on Avatarspirit.net that the third season was going to have 21 episodes in total compared to the 20 of the past two seasons, possibly due to Day of Black Sun being an extended episode as opposed to the usual breed of two-parters the series has done in the past...

    4th Edition Bard

    Skimmed through, and this looks pretty nifty. D/ling the pdf now so I can give it a more through read-thru later on.

    Very first thoughts after reading 4e PHB

    I'll admit that prior to actually sitting down and playing 4e, I was skeptical. Unlike VanRichten and his ilk, I was actually willing to give the game a fair shake. After all, any mouth-breather with a couple active brain cells can look at a book and say they don't like it becuase it's...

    Fluff me this: female tiefling + fey pact warlock!

    Have a lass playing a female Tiefling Warlock with the fey pact in my group, so I'm making it a point to print out some of these, particularly Lackhand's for her to read as possible background fodder.

    Are you SWAT or NOT?

    Granted we've only played one real session of 4e in my main group, but we seem to be getting there, especially due to SWAT-mindset in our SWSE game and that we've an ex-military guy as one of the players who rolled a Dwarf Warlord for his PC. As the D&D DM put it, 3e was more like NBA...

    Article on Wired.com poking fun at gamers

    I thought G4 and become "Spike Lite," to the point that Spike had more videogame content by way of their VG awards show than G4 did.

    Those [2 damage types] +1 damage feats

    Too bland of a name. And as written much better than similar feats (weapon focus, backstabber, hunter's quarry). Since you'd get to choose your damage type with no pre-reqs, it should only be choice of one type, not two, to bring it in line with Weapon Focus (which is limited to one weapon...

    Are the WOTC forums borked?

    I'm gonna suggest 'borked,' as I tried checking them briefly this morning and got the same result. Got it yesterday morning to, but seemed to be back up and running by the afternoon.

    OotS 568 is up

    I know I griped about Belkar''s actions in the thread for 567. But the pay-off here was well worth it. The title of the kobold village by itself brought a smile to my face. And from what I recall of Roy's description of the effect, the Mark of Justice probably is a sickening effect, turning...

    OoTS 567 Up!

    So I'm guessing either the Oracle has a "get out of death free" card for next panel, or we get to see Haley chew the diminutive bloodthristy cretin a new one. Hooray. Although something could be said for adventurers being far too literal in their thinking, as the Oracle was right on the chain...

    Warlock pacts: Which is for you?

    Nah. Half-Elf. Same abiliity score modifiers, and you get to cherry pick a power from another class, giving you yet another option... like say Bolstering Strike from the Paladin (uses Charisma vs. AC and grants temp hit points if you hit), or one of the Wizard's at-wills if you've got an...

    Warlock pacts: Which is for you?

    In other words, more like what Lovecraft should be, not what the Japanese have turned it into ;) As for the three, I'll have to go with Fey Pact. It may not be the most mechanically powerful, but it is amusing and meshs well with the "trickster motif" that I enjoy playing every now and again...

    Gamesday Characters Weapon Profs.

    Well I know the Half-Elf Rogue's attack scores were off by at least three, so it certainly is possible.
