From my case, the only rare we had in common was the Fire Archon (and I'm pretty sure I didn't have any double rares). I can't say I'm dissatisfied with what I pulled, although the Troll , the Cube, and the Umber Hulk were the ones I was most interested in.

Considering some of the gamers I've seen, I must heartily disagree.

I would think in a playtest it's better to follow the DM's script, even if it is a bit railroady. After all, it's a little hard to test how the game works if the DM is running off the cuff.

I didn't think I was getting old, but $50 did make me slam on the brakes. But, I've got a nice long time before I have to worry about it.

And the mystery race continues to be kept secret. Also, apparently non-infernal warlocks.

Wish has needed to go ever since Dragon Kings brought out 10th level spells. "Wish- the ultimate spell, except, not anymore." With 4E changing around spell levels, where would it even land? Too often, it became a game of trying to outwit the DM by wishing for something that couldn't be twisted...

Be interesting to see something like this. As is, D&D makes it hard to hold on to your father's ancestral blade, because it just can't compare with the +3 Flaming Sword you found in the dragon's lair. As I recall, you could put all sorts of bonuses into a legacy weapon- sure, there were the...

Kind of like how many months have 28 days- they all do, just most have more. I'm betting they were working with 8 at the time of Logan's statement- 2 per role- and they've adjusted things since then; I seem to recall reading that the Warlock wasn't originally going to make it in the first book...

Oh, a sea serpent would be a great creature for core. Sorry, I thought, besides bemoaning the lack of a sea serpent, I thought you were also asking for suggestions on something to fill the role. And yes, it is a cool beastie.

Check out the bestiary in Pathfinder 3: there's a creature called the Mother of Oblivion. It's a gargantuan outsider that looks like a sea serpent mixed with an octopus. Bite, four tentacle, improved grab and constrict. There is some spell-like stuff that goes with it's outsider nature, but...

I would think that Solo doesn't mean "Monster= 4+Level" or whatever. Rather, I'd think solo denotes a monster able to use several actions in a round- like the dragon from the encounter example. As it is now in 3.5, lone monsters are always always always at a disadvantage against a party because...

I laughed. So, sounds like we will still have party vs. single monster, but it won't be a case of 4 standards actions to 1.

I'm struck with this image of the Paizo staffers going trick or treating at WotC tomorrow, dressed up like warlocks and warlords and warmages and WAR covers, holding open their pillowcases for pages from the rule book. Erik: I got encounter designs! Mike: I got Classes! Dang, no ninja. James...

Against the Cult of the Reptile God was the first RPG item that I bought, and the first module I attempted to DM. I was 8 at the time, and DMing for my younger brother, so it didn't go so well. I've since run it more successfully in 1E, 2E, and 3E.

That's for the D&D miniatures crowd. There's already been a Troll figure (back in Harbinger). When they made a new troll, they couldn't just call it a Troll again, so they called it a Troll Slasher (Troll 2 is pretty boring). Now they're releasing a new troll, the 4E version, so they had to call...

Just the Giants for me, in a 1E/2E hybrid. I had planned on doing the whole GDQ set converted to 3.5 to follow up my on-the-fly conversion of TOEE, but that game ground to a halt.

Thanks! Any concerns that popped up because of the recent threads have been wiped away for me.

There is supposed to be one more adventure up, by Nicolas Logue. Might see that early next week, just before November starts.

Well, when I hear "Warlord", I think this guy: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warlord_%28comics%29 So, I'd say it's a pretty heroic and positive title.

It passes my main test- I don't think there were any Rares I'd be unhappy to get (my first pack of.. Unhallowed, I think, had a Devourer as the rare. That was a let down).
