    D&D is so METAL

    D&D has always been blacker than the blackest black...times infinity. Wasn't that the stereotype of the D&D player throughout the 80s anyhow, a metalhead, possibly a pothead?

    Why Is the Cleric Unfun?

    Could a Cleric be unfun to play with because its too good? A few times I've just felt "cheap" playing them.

    Why Is the Cleric Unfun?

    The problem isn't that clerics aren't fun to play. They can be. The problem is when you have a group that has been using the Cleric healing as a crutch to the point that its almost mandatory for every adventure. The group knows that the cleric will be pressured into healing a lot because they...

    The needed monster that's never appeared in the MM1 -- or at all, in some editions

    Its because its a dragon that talks and bargains and all of that. He just wants a big beatstick of a boat eater.

    Warlords Heal?

    They should just get it over with and call them drill sergeants. I can just see a gnome saying something like this... "Come on, you freaking shammer! Get up! I took a hit from that Ogre and I'm still standing and I'm 237 years OLD!!!!!"

    Exotic zombies at WotC

    The thing with the gravehound was that instead of biting and sticking on it used to stun with a bite. Since it had good charisma and was undead it was pretty easy to jack that DC up and eliminate someone with a weak Will save. The stench doesn't seem like a full nauseate effect, more like a...

    D&D 4E 4E Cosmology & Yougoloths

    Well, I feel that there is a great opportunity for a book about the neutral races, the Modrons, Formians, Slaadi, and yugoloths. I'd like it better than yet another book about demons and devils. Thats 4 interesting and squandered races as far as I can tell.

    Design & Development: The Warlock

    Okay, the Sorcerer ain't core, or the Gnome. This ain't the D&D I know. What will happen with core groups that want a Charisma based arcane caster that doesn't sell his soul to X/y/z? If the Bard gets axed then what?

    Is 4th edition getting soft? - edited for friendly content :)

    Winner Winner Chicken Dinner. Save or Die gives casters way too much power, I think. Its an effect that meleers simply don't get. "Oh, this monster has poor Will save? No problem, I'll whack it with my special quarterstaff once." At range, no less.

    Design & Development: The Warlock

    I'm concerned that the sorcerer will get screwed again. I want to hear something about them because I want the sorcerer to be equal to the wizard, who has been outshining it for years, and the newly minted Warlock that R&D is having a ball with.

    D&D 4E I'm really concerned about 4E

    I'm really worried by what I read. This change is going to be a lot bigger than most people realize. This is like going from 2 to 3 and not 3 to 3.5. It will take me a long time to come to grips with it all but unless WOTC REALLY botches this it will rule the d20 market and lead to a lot of...

    I tried the 4 player standard, what a mess...

    Meleeing with an ogre with a two weapon fighting ranger? Are you out of your mind? Color Spray and Sleep followed by coup de grace, then use Grease to disarm it of the greatclub if it passes the will saves. You stay as far away as possible. 2d8+7 damage is a one hit kill. The system isn't...

    Metal School

    You didn't, and this leads into a great subject, Thrash subgenres East Coast Thrash: These bands have a much greater punk and NYHC influence. Anthrax and Overkill are the banner bands of this genres. The lyrics are more likely to be social and political, its a little faster, too. If you like...

    Why I don't support my LGS

    Talk about a blunder in the original post. Brick-and-mortar services only have three things going for them: 1.Service 2.Service 3.Service They cannot possibly hope to compete with Amazon, Ebay, and all the thousands of other outfits selling items online in both selection and cost. They need to...
