Doesn't the scriptwriter sometimes post on EN World? Or am I confusing myself?

Has Clark basically bowed out of publishing entirely? I see the Legendary Games facebook page, but their web site seems to be gone.

Since you agree with it and therefore presumably understand it, can you explain the argument in what you quoted in two or three sentences?

I had signed up way back when first announced. Just got first email, filled out forms, waiting for second email.

I want the introductory box to be PG or even just G, but the core rulebooks to be PG-13.

Interesting. According to the trademark register the basis for the application is intent to use under section 1(b) rather than existing use under 1(a). It may be that they are considering "Dragonborn" as the name of a new game in the series.

You made me promises promises ... What "promises" has WotC made? If they deliver on the stated design goals then it is likely to become my preferred game.

Thanks muchly for the report. I have a question that hopefully isn't under the NDA - did you submit your concerns and how? Did you talk directly to Monte about the issues you saw? Fill out a form?

I think someone already said this, but I'll repeat it. If I'm playing an adventure path then I would prefer somewhat more customizable character and improved durability. If I'm playing a beer and pretzels megadungeon, I want simple fast character creation and don't mind fragile 1st level...

I think demons are inspired by Sword & Sorcery sources whereas devils are inspired by Dante.

Thanks I wasn't even sure of my own answer when I posted last night. I certainly think that average risk levels need to be comparable. But after sleeping on it, I think it doesn't really hurt my immersion to know that other people are using different resolution mechanics. Maybe I would feel...

I should probably edit the first post. If you look at the example, you'll see that at least some attempt at balance is made. Those who elect save or die have a larger penalty but it is less likely to occur. So I'm sort of presuming that on average folks who elect save or die will die at about...

I could see that. On the one hand, the modules would exist anyway, so why not try to have them balanced for simultaneous use? On the other hand, it is yet more issues for the DM to adjudicate. But the underlying question I'm posing is probably, how do things that don't directly affect your...

So something I was thinking about is how far can this be pushed. I thought I would start with save or die. Of course the DM can rule save or die in or out of the game for all players. But what if the rules were set so that if the DM doesn't particularly care, then individual players could...

Thanks for responses. Shows no matter how many times I read the rules, I can manage to miss something. I need to pull out my 1e PHB to see if we misunderstood it bitd. Old-fashioned minor globe of invulnerability Level: ? Duration: 1 round/level This spell functions like anti-magic field...

In 1e we played that minor globe of invulnerability moved with the caster. In 3e minor globe of invulnerability is explicitly immobile. Any suggestions on what level a mobile minor globe of invulnerability should be in 3e? I'm leaning toward 5th; it doesn't seem to deserve a two level bump...

Pnume, the last book in the Jack Vance Planet of Adventure series, includes a significant underground adventure. I've always thought it provided some inspiration for elements in module D1, such as classification of passages as primary, secondary, etc.

If the game was not labelled "Dungeons & Dragons", would the reviewer have found it fun? Say I don't play 4e. Would I have fun playing this game? Is this game more or less fun than Farmville? I would like a review that answered these questions.

I think the best sports analogy is that of baseball and softball. They have common ancestry and would look similar to an observer who is not familiar with the games, but the differences can be considered critical by those playing.

How would you adjudicate a find the path to "the nearest entrance to an extradimensional space"? Should this be prohibited as trying to find an object? What if the nearest extradimensional space is a portable hole? Or a rope trick?
