This sounds like quality madness. (Putting in for our dear Bulter if possible.)

Toss my stenson in for this one. And I'm for the card sharp (if he is what i think he is) and the neighbor if not.

I would be interested in this. (Vance if poss)

My hope is attend Sunday as Saturday is the Fundementals of Engineering exam. And sadly this may be my last as well (moving to Baltimore) and I'm caught between running something gonzo and playing twice.

Honestly, I think the big trick for the 4e Ravenloft would be to make the Dark Powers thieves of a sort. The land they take from Prime Material worlds and bind to them through the anchor of the land's inherent evil inhabitants, particularly the dark lord. It is why they combine Realms or...

As someone who has played in Shem's planescape games, there is a sense of wonder and history you really don't get from any of the current stuff. Frankly I've yet to see a 4e book that I would ever just read or get excited about. (There weren't alot of 3e books either, but as I said, wrong way...

Yeah. Managed to be on the ball this year. It will be interesting to see who signs up for my Godlike game as well.

Hey Rel, can you reapprove my game? I realized that I had set my Godlike game as family friendly, and realized that perhaps world war 2 combat, even that seen through a supers lens would be a bit to grim for the 13 and under.

Hey Rel, do you know if Henry or his south carolina crew are making the trip?

If you guys think this is/was a brutal bunch of edition wars, you haven't seen the aftermath of 2e, revised, and new mage. And in most cases the rules changes were vast improvements. It makes this look like a tea party trust me. Still not a fan of 4e for long term campaigns, for a number...

The problem I have always had with hit points, beyond that fact that sprained ankles tend not to be even slight metal. (And lo, did I not stub my toe mightly upon yon foe and didst feel the agony of it. Yet I shall preserver through the pain and slay my foe anon) Sometimes, you need to know...

I will be there and debating to run as well. Possibly a Feng Shui or Godlike

See, I would love to see a/the power design rules. A basic balancing mechanism for constructing powers and balancing them against the other. I'd suggest point based, with different totals for at/will, encounter, and daily. Then you pay for effects, targets, areas,....etc and then balance...

I also like the idea of a unified rule system, such as the GURPs or Mutants and Masters minds based ones. Honestly, I would have loved to have D&D use something like that point based design with possibly something like modern's careers for backgrounds and templates for the classes.

I find Professions, as either a single freebie choice or as a feat choice as something that is useful. I also like Rel's homebrew system. For those who don't see uses for things like profession, have you ever used those skills to masquerade as a ....(what ever ) to gain access to X place...

Honestly, I like having varying but relatively static levels for groups and types of NPC. Honestly your standard commoner is going to be a 0-2 level NPC with the appropriate skills. The retired campaigner turned Blacksmith might be a bit higher level than average and being his son might be a...

I will certainly agree with KM about flavor and mechanics needing to function as a single unit. I think the problem is not so much that you can replace the flavor with what you want. I could have done that to anything. My problem is that the 4e flavor doesn't do anything for me. Its like...

Not doing it for me. Part of this is because what they did with the system and the setting blows a few of my projects out of the water. (Modules,etc.) The fact that the books are bloody unreadable as anything other than reference books are two points in the negative column. I haven't seen a...

I am pretty certain that Mike is pretty much left me and mine in the dust. I could not articulate it more clearly than what he has said. He is my anti-designer to make it a quip. Angrys up the blood. No offense to anyone who likes what he does, but gah.

Yes, and there shall be much transforming and rolling out until someone realizes how much they'd have to pay for the license or heave to and prepared to be sued. As for the Aasimar -> Deva change irritates me if only because it does the same thing Eladrin did. I don't mind if they change the...
