    D&D 4E 4e Iconics?

    Antiheros are often staples of fantasy -- and look, now we'll have an entire race of antiheros.

    D&D 4E 4e Iconics?

    What do you suppose the Iconic characters are going to be? Based on the concept art, I'd say there's at least a Halfling Cleric being considered to be an iconic character. So here's my guess (presuming the classes aren't changing): Halfling Cleric Human Wizard Half-Orc Druid Gnome Fighter...

    D&D 4E What Changes Do You Hope They Make To The 4E Rules?

    Thanks ... I think. It was merely showing a focus that other revisions have had that emphasize miniatures over role playing -- the SAGA edition is a good example.

    D&D 4E What Changes Do You Hope They Make To The 4E Rules?

    I hope that they *Integrate miniatures into the core rules, either making them required or play difficult without the use of a battle grid (such as what they did in SAGA and the removal of distance in any real-life term). *Integrate the DI so that it is effectively required to play...

    D&D 4E Will you buy 4e?

    Wow, you harass here, too.

    D&D 4E Will you buy 4e?

    I've had enough with the garbage that WoTC produces -- I have no intention of even considering 4th Edition.

    It's all about the 4dventures!

    It is either official or an extremely elaborate prank: Here. 4th Edition hath come.

    Puppet Master

    Yeah, definitely inspired by it. I hope that you do not feel I copied you--I didn't. If our classes share a lot of overlap, it is only due to 'convergent evolution' so to speak. (Or we can go with 'great minds think alike'). Do either of you find any faults in its mechanics at all? Or have...

    Puppet Master

    The mechanics are a bit complex, yes -- but I wanted to make it as variable as possible so that each puppet would be unique. Your animated objects idea is neat, but the problem with animated objects is, outside of looks and hardness, they all use the same statistics for their size category, and...

    My take on Staff "Familiars"

    Seems way too powerful. Wizards ultimately end up getting twenty spontaneously-cast spells?

    Gestault Powergaming

    I agree. It is balanced when you are dealing with monsters that are not particularly focused on one area, such as dragons (the "bards" if you will of monsters--jack of all trades, master of none). Werebears however feel the full benefits of Gestalt.

    Puppet Master

    This is a bit lacking in flavor, and I can't think of what class skills it should have. Please give me any feedback at all. The Puppet Master Alignment: Any Hit Die: d4 Class Skills: A Puppet Master’s class skills (and the key ability for each skill) are: Appraise (Int), Craft (Puppet) (Int)...

    WotC forum issues?

    Take a look in the buisness section. There's threads about posts being deleted; there's evidence that the moderators are censoring people. The top mods can't even define words that are being used to give warnings to people.

    Gestault Powergaming

    One of the most potent builds I've ever come up with was as follows: Werebear 9/Warshaper 4/Warhulk 7//Monk 20 Here is a break-down of it. Monk 1 // Werebear 1 Iron Will*, Stunning Fist, Combat Expertise Monk 2 // Werebear 2 Combat Reflexes Monk 3 // Werebear 3 Power Attack, Endurance* Monk 4...

    WotC forum issues?

    Beyond the forum issues, for some reason the moderators have been EXTREMELY intolerant as of late. Even the slightest provocation can result in a warning or even a banning. And apparently there must have been some change because now they don't have to give any justification or explanation for a...

    D&D Brand Manager of Fluff

    Not sure if this has been mentioned (I'm sure it has) ... but... Draconomicon II would be my first choice for a fluff-centric book. The first one had a perfect mix of fluff and crunch. The second in the line would focus less on dragons as a whole and more on individual species. Gem dragons...

    How would you remake the D&D cartoon?

    I think Dungeons and Dragons could also warrant a more mature show--probably an anime--as well. Harder moral decisions, and more mature characters, too. There's a lot of potential with the key concepts of D&D for animation.

    Movement on steep, snow-covered slopes.

    What sort of snow? If it's icy snow, then they might have issue. The slope itself, I'd say, reduces speed to half--but beyond that I would not enforce balance checks or anything like that.

    Detect Wild Magic Field

    In my campaign world, set on modern Earth, the world has a rather major problem: it's about to burst with magical energies generated within it. A seal exists that surrounds the Earth, keeping all of the perpetual magic within it. However, over time, the seal has reached its limits, and on...
