Well, at least my favourite class hasn't yet been saddled with names like Golden Wyvern Adept. I remain cautiously optimistic. I hope that despite being holy (or unholy, in 4E) warriors, as I've seen some people point out, paladins won't always need to hit things with weapons in order to be able...

The posts by Green Knight that seem to have impressed the designers can be found here and here (also, Rich Baker's reply). I'm quoting the first in full because I think it will help explain things very well. I agree with everything said in this post but would not have been able to express it...

Lazybones, I've been reading your Shackled City story. I'm loving the main characters, particularly Zenna and Mole, and Hodge and Beorna have made great additions to the group (go kickass dwarves!). I've looked at the first page of The Doomed Bastards and while it's probably going to take quite...

I like playing "knight in shining armour" characters, so I'll want to try the 4E paladin. Maybe the warlord if the abilities are interesting.

I really like the art comparing human, half-elven and elven features. I hope it ends up in the PHB, along with similar examples for other PHB races.

I'm hoping that Torm manages to survive. He's been perfect for my PCs with "knight in shining armour" ideals, more so than the somewhat dull and too Norse Tyr. I'd also like to see Selûne enter a "waxing moon" time in her faith. Bane is a good deity for villains; he should grow in power after...

I'm another person who'd love it if the "party fights green dragon" pic replaced the current PHB cover. The first says Action!, the second features a couple of poseurs.

I agree. The early "low level" novels were fun pulp that helped me get a feel for the setting's flavour, but I haven't bothered to buy the RSE novels. I'd like the novels to be canon and get a few references in sourcebooks to reflect that, but I don't want them to be something that players feel...

It would be great if they got Michael Komarck to do a few paintings. Whoever's responsible for the black and white sketches 4E sketches is a pretty good choice for simpler interior/iconic illustrations. ETA: I'd forgotten Terese Nielsen, I'd like to see her work in 4E too.

Thank you, though you've been disagreeing with me more politely than many bother to do on the Internet. It would be kind of nice to get away from art for a while. Iconics? The claim that women like fluff and not just combat in RPGs? Anything?

I think that if random women were shown my photo of the half-naked man and the BOED pic and asked which one they thought was hot, they'd choose the first and wonder what kind of joke it was that the second was even included. But that would be discussing my taste in men, wouldn't it? Anything...

I'm trying to ask you why you thought to respond to a specific request, with a photo as a guide, with a picture of a horse. You haven't answered, only posted more non-human pictures. I asked: "can someone find official D&D art that resembles this? Handsome man, mostly naked, intended to be eye...

I don't think it's too much when one third of the response to this: consists of this: How on earth could it seem like a good idea to post those pics in reply to a request for handsome men who show skin? Would a photo of Angelina Jolie with a request for more in the same style make people...

I hope I'll have the opportunity to continue 3.5 campaigns. If the 4E rules turn out to be great, I'll either try to convert characters or make room for a new 4E campaign. Of course, a lot depends on my DMs; maybe I'll want to continue and they won't, maybe they'll like the rules and I won't.

Well, there's a lot of disagreement over whether stars who appeared on People's Most Beautiful lists deserved to be there. I was giving my personal opinion on those pics: I noted that those guys weren't my type but I did call them handsome in the end because I thought that's what enough people...

First pic: give some clothes so that the artist doesn't need to make him look neutered, maybe make him non-blue, and it's a start. Second pic: not my type, but I'll call him handsome enough. Third pic: neutered but at least the face isn't ugly. Last pic: bald, neutered anatomy study; freaky and...

I expect the art will have some of the "modern" feel of 3E, but those preview images I've seen suggest the outfits might be more traditional (fewer spikes and other additions). That could be a good balance. I'd be very happy if they got Michael Komarck to do something for the books.

I don't think anyone's been arguing she's modest. I posted a picture of her in order to provide an example of why I thought a woman could still be sexy while not showing much skin; others responded by posting pictures of her in her Cleopatra costumes in the Asterix film. Apparently the fact that...

I have a certain nostalgic affection for hobbity halflings but I've never been interested enough to play the race. I hope that whether they decide to continue in the 3E direction or do something else, they write some good halfling fluff for the PHB.

It almost sounds like you're saying that if I refer to an actress or a character I have to be sure that the only things she's ever worn are Victorian outfits, otherwise the point I'm trying to make about a particular picture is rendered invalid. Even though April Lee is responsible for this, I...
