    Compiled info on upcoming classes & races

    Thanks, that's awesome. Could you do us a favor though and paste the gleemax stuff in here? They still own my brain. I'm still unable to log in. It's really damn lame. I'm so hoping the D&D Insider has nothing to do with gleemax.

    More than likely.

    Are you serious? Those are both so old that they're public domain in every country in the world. Anyone can use them without fear of a lawsuit. We're talking about games made in the last century, preferably something still under copyright, like, I don't know... D&D. Bridge is at least 119 years...

    Hey Phil... how about giving a bit more, like the next paragraph... So, yeah, you can create a game with basically the same rules, but the entire rules description may be copyrighted, and good luck coming up with a similar enough description to convey meaning that is also distinct enough to...

    This. WotC may be able to require OGL or GSL products by a single company. But, there's nothing stopping each of the companies listed from having a subsidiary (or closely related company using the same writers/devs on a freelance basis) enabling them to produce both. There are so many vagaries...

    New GSL Announcement

    If you knew what you were talking about you'd be dangerous. Thankfully you haven't a clue. Any and all games that use the OGL are, by definition, open games. Take the time to read. Every bit of the M&M rules are open content that can be used (except the Product Identity material, which only...

    New GSL Announcement

    So wait, if M&M continues to publish their game as is, that prevents them from publishing 4E material?

    Scrying - Does it have to be a problem spell?

    To some degree that can easily lend itself to the DM pounding his fist on the table and yelling no. Unless there's no one from the same village, no one knows the big bad, no information about him, never attacked before, etc. The only way a reasonable DM can absolutely keep bits like that out of...

    D&D 4E 4e edition of G4TV's MMO report

    Oot. Druid, Barbarian, and Bard. Dungeon designer is free. Yay.

    Wow. That's ballsy. In before lock.

    I'd like to know what happens to an Elite that gets either of those templates.

    D&D 4E Dark Sun Conversion to 4E

    Holy crap! Thri-kreen are Ice Devils! Now that's a scoop. <wander's off and buries head> I totally don't remember those. I'm getting old.

    Anyone else notice the pseudo thri-kreen in the art preview? Here

    Scott, thank you for responding here. It is appreciated. If you would, please answer one more: How do the smaller publishers--not on the list--go about getting the SRD before June to get their products ready by the October opening sales date?

    Those that bought into the 5 grand damn well better get something for that chunk o' change.

    D&D 4E Dark Sun Conversion to 4E

    A quick fix to the radius would be: spell level X terrain type = radius in yards Forest = /10 (min 1 yard). Verdant belts = /5 (min 1 yard). Scrub plains = /2 (min 1 yard). All other terrain types = x1 yard. This uses the chart found in the original box, but it's not quite the same numbers...

    That's great. The yellow is nearly impossible to read though.

    D&D 4E Dark Sun Conversion to 4E

    But, if defiling is a power, then you can't use it the same round you cast a spell without spending an action point. Defiling is a type of casting, it happens as you cast. With the healing surge burn = preserver set-up I posted above, it makes defiling quicker (you don't have to spend an action...
