    Re: Lesserbane? Actually, the bane ability also gives you a +2 increase to the enhancement bonus of the weapon, so bane is better than lesserbane (bane is really a weak ability at +2 ... see http://www.seankreynolds.com/rpgfiles/magicitems/greaterbaneandlesserbane.html

    Forgotten Rums....? Evil Overlords...?

    Hey, I just want to say that I've been pretty harsh on Anthony, and I apologize for that. I think his job sucks and I'd never want to do it, so you have to give him credit for that.

    Forgotten Rums....? Evil Overlords...?

    A drow fighter is going to have a different selection of ability scores, feats, and gear compared to the "generic, raceless" fighter presented in the DMG.

    Forgotten Rums....? Evil Overlords...?

    Actually, 90% of these pre-statted characters I'm talking about are "typical drow wizard level 1-10," "typical drow fighter level 1-10," etc. ... not world-specific stuff, or so light in world-specificness (i.e., Zhentarim wizard ... can be dropped into any game without changes) that the...

    Forgotten Rums....? Evil Overlords...?

    I am baffled at how Lords of Rumness is not considered "mixed. 12 pages of spells/items. 10+ pages of pre-statted characters 6 pages of prestige classes 40 pages of pre-statted encounter sites (not including maps) 68 pages/192 = 35%. That's a really good amount of crunchy material there. How...

    Forgotten Rums....? Evil Overlords...?

    If WotC's recent history (in the past year) in handling new game settings is any indicator, no.

    Forgotten Rums....? Evil Overlords...?

    Re: Bean counters Are you saying that Lords of Rumness, a 192-page book that sells for 30 beans, doesn't make its profit margin? Despite the fact that it sold at least 4x as many copies as any other book in the Rums line a few years ago? If a Forgotten Rums book that sells 40 copies isn't a...

    Forgotten Rums....? Evil Overlords...?

    I haven't forgotten the lessons of the past. When I say "story" in the context of the FR D&D books, I don't mean 32 pages of "and then this guy did this thing 500 years ago, and as a result he was never heard from again and now his name is forgotten." I mean information on what's going on _now_...

    The major changes at WOTC

    Out of curiousity, who was this WotC designer? Or (more to the point) was it me, and what were they asking about? [B] Oh, I'm a real people person as long as the person I'm talking to isn't being a dumbass. ;) (just teasing) If I were a jerk all the time, there would be nobody visiting my...

    The major changes at WOTC

    I'll point out (as others have) just to make sure it's seen: a web enhancement is not errata. It it usally extra goodies for the book that were cut out for space reasons, or (like the web enhancements for the FRCS, Faiths & Pantheons, and Silver Marches) were contracted independantly for the web...

    The major changes at WOTC

    1. The 3 core books could have been priced at $30, but were priced at $20 for one big reason: to reduce the barrier of entry for 3E from $90 to $60. At the minimum, it means that a 2E player could pick a 3E PH for $20 and check it out, and if they didn't like it they only had spent $20. The...

    WotC - CUSTOMER NEGLIGENCE

    And of course, saying "WotC can contact me on this thread if they ever feel like getting back to me" is a great way to get a response to your complaint. Are you really certain that people in WotC customer service read the ENworld boards?

    The major changes at WOTC

    Re: . Dumbass, the people that work on the D&D products don't make the decisions for pricing, canceling products, and certainly aren't in a position to funnel company money anywhere. The people who do make those decisions are an order of magnitude more invisible than the people who work in R&D...

    The major changes at WOTC

    Vince, the exiting exec, was not a gamer either. WotC hasn't had a gamer in a senior exec position since Peter Adkison left (ok, I don't know all of the execs, but I don't think any of them are gamers. Vince certainly wasn't, and he in fact didn't understand games and found ways to avoid playing...

    [Speculation] What is "Project G"

    I can't give an answer on this, but believe me, it's a stupid, stupid reason.

    [Speculation] What is "Project G"

    Hey, um, the two new templates on my site don't have anything to do with Project G, just so ya know. I'm not sure why you're inferring that, but OK.... :)

    Faiths & Pantheons? WTF?

    Except that in FR, a mortal can't permanently kill a deity without the direct backing of a deity.
