Personally I don't like to see subraces at all. Subcultures yes (so I'm happy with culturally wood elves and culturally high elves, for instance). All the sub races seemed to be a bit silly to me, apart from situations like Glorantha where they were tied in strongly to the up-front creation...

It also depends upon whether something is deep in a thread, or fairly recent at the end of a thread. We used to delete problem posts a LOT in the first decade, there has generally been less and less need for it nowadays - but may still be needed. Mods can still see deleted posts and threads in...

I felt that IM3 was better than 2 but not as good as 1. The strength IMO was that it includes Tony dealing with the after-effects of the Avengers movie.

My contract is coming to an end on my 4s, and it is my intention to get a 5s and pass my 4s on to my wife (who will pass on her 3gs to our eldest child). I've seen a lot of people agreeing with you in saying "where is the wow?" but really... we've got more this time than we had between 4 and...

Hi chaps, great to see you here at ENworld. I did a minor edit to your post to turn red text into bold text, because we reserve red text for moderator warnings on the site. Not a big deal though. Cheers

Actually, they had a bonus against 'giant class' (which included giants, trolls, ogres, orcs, goblins) of +1 damage per level when they were first introduced in the Strategic Review. So the idea of opposing a certain type of enemy has been with the ranger -since its very inception as a class!-

Although in 1e it started kicking in at about, what, 8th level - it wasn't exactly minor spell casting as they got 1st and 2nd level wizard spells from the wizard list and 1st-3rd druid spells from the druid spell list. There were some kick-ass spells on those lists, I can tell you! Personally...

This is the approach I would favour at the moment.

I'm sure that someone else will have already picked you up on this but... no :) 2WF was in the 3e ranger because 2wf was introduced to the 2e ranger, which was there because Drizzt was a ranger who used 2wf because he was a drow and drow used 2wf. And breathe. The original ranger (as per the...

let's tone down the snark please, OK? Thanks Plane Sailing, Enworld Admin

Not sure whether it has been covered earlier, but I hope that this time they will attempt to balance evokers damage vs others per adventure rather than per encounter. Per-encounter balancing tends to over rate the benefit of area attack spells vs lots of enemies going by 3e and 4e IMO. Now...

I agree here 100%. Why can't we have the nice, honourable guy stay honourable? It did seem like a jerky thing to do with him. Sometimes I wonder if scriptwriters only want to allow a certain number of 'honourable' people in a movie, I case it 'confuses' the viewers.

However, that doesn't tally with the comics portrayal of adamantium, which can't be used to cut itself. I know, I know, "movies are different to comics". It just still jarred with me.

So, I've just come back from watching "The Wolverine" and I enjoyed it - certainly more than the wolverine origins movie a little while ago. I do have a question that perhaps someone more familiar with the series run it was based on could explain to me though... How does a giant robot cut his...

This would be my preference too

I saw the movie because people I trust enjoyed it. I thought it was OK, but it was somewhat spoilt by a weak ending I think it would have been a much stronger ending if the two heroes had died when closing the gate. At the very least the bloke should have died (no way was there time for him...

Thanks for posting this introduction to the setting!

I think it is episode 30 or 31 of their podcast,all of which can be found here http://www.kenandrobintalkaboutstuff.com/

This reflects on an interesting point made by Robin Laws and Ken Hite's podcast earlier this year - hollywood 'knows' how to do 'personal growth and change' stories, but they don't know how to do stories so much about 'iconic hero does iconic things in an interesting way'. That's why they keep...

The point of that mechanic is that the designers want this (and some other spells) to be dramatic 'finish him' spells, rather than potent opening spells. Personally, I'm OK with that.
