    Dragon Compendium Volume 2

    Umm... that's the thread the McArtor quotes came from.

    Dragon Compendium Volume 2

    If you mean Mike McArtor's statements: 1. I can't talk about Paizo products too far out in advance, but I too would really like to see DCII in 2007. Or ever. Email Wizards of the Coast and demand they let us do it. ;D and 2. It's because Paizo is a licensee of WIzards of the Coast. We pay for...

    A Dozen Crossbows Aimed at You ..

    I think incresing the crit range of the arrows is a reasonable method, as are a number of suggestions offered here. In any case, I think the risk of death should be increased in such a situation, assuming the crossbows *could* hit them in the first place.

    Is this fair?

    No but funny. The only played-by-another-player drastic outcome that I as a DM would permit, or I as a player would condone, is death. Death happens. It can happen regardless of specific player decisions. Converting to another class, picking up a very cursed item, etc... these things simply...

    D&D 4E 4E - more rules or less?

    I don't see a need for more or fewer rules. Rather, many of the rules can be streamlined, and many empty areas can have rules implemented.

    Should Prestige Classes be more powerful than Base Classes?

    I believe you have misunderstaood me. When I say a prestige class should be a base class played with style, I mean... A dwarven defender should not be a different class. It is a warrior that has chosen Feats and skills that make it adept at defensive fighting / bodyguard work. It is a niche...

    Should Prestige Classes be more powerful than Base Classes?

    Agreed and then some. A prestige class should be a base class played with style.

    How important is product presentation in a review?

    Much like KB9, I am more likely to notice poor artwork than good. However, neither greatly affects my impression of the content of the produce. The best art in the world does not save a crappy mechanics / crappy flavor product, and the worst art in the world will not ruin great content.

    Iconic Monster Use - The Displacer Beast

    I voted 16+ times. Then again, I started playing D&D in 1978.

    NPCs: Stat Blocks or Backgrounds

    If the NPC is someone/thing that the PCs are likely to combat, I need stat blocks. If the NPC is someone the PCs are likely to interact with more than once, I need background. Sometimes, the NPC requires both. Often, the NPC requires neither. I can't vote in this poll.

    [KenzerCo] New Kingdoms of Kalamar adventure PDF!

    The news release says it is a free download. Where did they get that idea for this $3.99 adventure?

    Do players need something cool every level?

    I voted "yes" but have a lot of different ideas of what "cool" means. It need not be earth shattering. The bonus feat and stat increase are already there at specific levels. I could see making one cross-class skills become a class skill at a certain level. Swap one point from one stat to...

    Wow! 57:2 Never seen such a decisive poll!

    Is it normal to come back from the dead?

    I assume that I would want to be raised unless there is a good rason not to. If I was a follower of Wee Jas, I might refuse to return, respecting the nature of death in the order of things. If I died gloriously, I might refuse to return, choosing to enjoy the fruits of my labors in the...

    New Human-raised Half-Elven Favoured Class?

    I couldn't vote, since I can't find "no favored class" or "Any" on the list. A half-elf raised by humans is a human. A half-elf raised by elves is an elf.

    Are you buying Dragon Magic?

    I'm not buying it. This is because it has the word magic in it. I don't need more magic. Nothing against new books. I just prefer environment and world building books more.
