    Lucy (trailer)

    I got a slight Akira vibe from it for some reason. Looks interesting enough for a viewing to me.

    Agents of Shield: Odd vibe from series

    I watched it until it started its UK hiatus, I don't know whether it came back or is yet to return, but I don't think I'll bother watching it when it does. For me there was just too much stupid going on. I couldn't believe in the relationships between the people and the way they acted. On top...

    Captain America: The Winter Soldier (no spoilers in OP; can't promise about the rest of the thread!)

    Saw it on Monday night and thoroughly enjoyed it. One of the things that I found particularly pleasing is that I thought that they had done a good job of the trailers NOT spoiling major plot points. There were several reveals in the movie that I found quite shocking, and I really like what...

    Captain America: The Winter Soldier (no spoilers in OP; can't promise about the rest of the thread!)

    Rather obviously Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch, I thought.

    Question about EW and mobile viewing

    I'm pretty sure that the problem relates to the advert that appears below the breadcrumbs and above the rest of the content. It appears that this isn't making its size known to the browser when the page is first being layed out, and so when it appears the browser has to shuffle things around...

    Is the Internet a hive of scum and villainy?

    You probably already know this, but there are some browser extensions with the whole purpose of obfuscating youtube comments. Might be valuable in fending off that day of awful realisation.

    D&D 5E (2014) Why the claim of combat and class balance between the classes is mainly a forum issue. (In my opinion)

    I would be interested in why you are so sure of this view. Your profile says you were born in the 80's, and of that is right this was all happening before you were born - so why so sure?

    D&D 5E (2014) Why the claim of combat and class balance between the classes is mainly a forum issue. (In my opinion)

    So many people assert this, but it seems that they do so without any real understanding of what OD&D was actually like. I can tell you that there were lots of war games that were produced and played around that time, but the one thing which made OD&D different and innovative was that combat was...

    Happy New Year!

    I'd like to wish a very happy new year to all denizens of ENworld, both old and new! This place wouldn't be the vibrant, dynamic community which it is without your contributions, and I can speak for all the moderators when I say a heartfelt thank you to you all. Cheers!

    Can I get a thread bumped or reopened?

    I haven't got time right now to read through 35 pages to see what it contains and why it was closed originally - would you be able to give a little more reason about what might make it worth bumping or reopening? Thanks

    D&D 5E (2014) Need Advice on a Figher/Mage Type of Character

    Plus, as DM, you could just waive the alignment restrictions! I've found in the past that changing around spell lists can give a very interesting flavour - there was one campaign where I allowed rangers to use the assassins spell list (in 3e) which provided an interesting flavour to them.

    The orchid mantis

    Misleading headline on that article, especially since (as they make clear in the body) this mantis has been known for over a century! Perhaps "scientist proves 100 year old theory about orchid mantis" didn't seem catchy enough...

    Forums not working right with iPad.

    Sorry to hear that. What version of iPad? What version of iOS? Does it exist whether in portrait or landscape? Registered user/ supporter? Some of that detail might help us work out we're the problem might lie. Cheers

    Day of the Doctor

    This was my only big disappointment with it too; it was pretty, but was just spaceships attacking a planet. I was expecting/hoping for something much more time shattering.

    OOTS 0930

    Was he not the one who trained Elan in the dashing swordsman prestige class? They had a training montage and EVERYTHING.

    Microsoft Surface. Wow!

    Well, it's nice to see that the old 'Surface' table technology hasn't just been quietly dropped as I had feared. On the other hand, even though I've been interested in it for years, I'd not heard of the Pixel Sense (silly name!) so it isn't as if Microsoft are actually promoting it or anything...

    EN Common Vocabulary vs. Forge Terms

    It seems to me that people at enworld will, quite reasonably, continue using the terms they use with the sense and meaning they have grown here (wooly as it may be!) Whether the forge has or hasn't defined anything in any way is probably of no interest here at all, to be honest - apart from...

    D&D 5E (2014) Strip Background out of subclass

    I really liked that approach, I found it flavourful and inspiring. I'm sorry to see it get watered down and dissipated :(
