    Thank you Dario, for the kobold race breakdown. It is helpful to see listed the numbers/costs... I was wondering if you had done the maps yourself. What software do you use?

    I've found the Master's Guide very helpful to my campaigns. Lots of tools and bits to insert as needed. Especially enjoying the Create Your Own section. I think D&D has long-needed a reliable point-based creation system. Using the rules, I've made centaur, veggie pygmy, and hegeyokai...

    Looks pretty badass. I can envision a tank-like shifter or monk build with this race... The abilities are useful and flavorful. Ovate is a nice touch, though there are already a lot of druid abilities on the list. I could also see goodberry, or speak with plants (though the latter is...

    I do like the shadow race concept, but dislike the name "fetchling." They are pretty cool race concept, though. Am I alone in love for the Woodling/Treant/Plant Race? C'mon, Woodling shaman! Treant druid! ... though Genasi could fill that gap, I suppose.

    D&D 4E 4e retro-clone

    I'm curious if there is one out there? Is it possible to hot-wire such a tome using the OGL? How feasible would it be to incorporate all the crunch from the DDI to make a "rules cyclopedia" style retro-clone of 4e? Seems like you could just refluff all the names, but still use the numbers? I...

    Some stuff I'd like to see... Races: Yeti/Sasquatch, Genasi (humanoid with elemental heritage), Plant-man/Treant Classes: Brawler, Assassin! Themes: Drifter, Avenger, Scout (could be a class too) Equipment: Mecha!

    How has it been going with getting your group to try the system?

    The facebook stuff looks cool. I like the more sci-fi slant a lot of the new updates seem to be taking. ...I'm working on running an online/pbp Radiance game. It's a fantasy-wildwest setting: "weird west." We're using the core classes and themes, but I'm bolting on some crunch and equipment...

    Thanks Dario for providing so much feedback. :) BTW, Radiance has the first encumbrance rules I actually like using and enforcing. Usually I tend to hand-wave and use common sense for encumbrance and a lot of resource management stuff, but the slot-point system is easy and quite a bit more...

    I like 4e saves as "defenses," but I also like to let the players roll their saving throws for important events, like poisoning, charm, etc... I just feel better letting the player's roll decide the fate of his character. So, if I want to convert defenses to "olde school" saving throws, do I...

    When is the Expansion scheduled for release? It's called a kit, but it's a book, right?

    I can see dhampir as both a race and a class. Same with shifter... You could even make warmech a class for PC's who die and have their souls transferred to golems.

    We're starting to use the Radiance system for the D&D-style campaign I'm running. Had been using C&C with a bunch of house rules, but we're going to see how things roll with Radiance. Coverting the characters was a snap, except for one player who has a Yeti Brawler. I ended up letting him pick...

    Anyone check out Radiance RPG yet?

    Okay, sounds good. I'm also wondering about building/converting races and classes (homebrew or from other 3.x/4e books): ~Does the Creature Creation rules on pp.246-247 include PC races? ~It's cool that race/class abilities have a point system. If I want to add more feats or spells (from other...

    I was wondering if the Master's Guide will include rules for converting 3.x (or older editions) monsters to Radiance? Particularly, if there is a quick and easy way to convert HP to Wound/Vitality... Much enjoying the game so far!

    Anyone check out Radiance RPG yet?

    Greetings all. This is my first post on ENworld (though I've been reading, researching, here for awhile). I started playing rpg's when I was in grade-school in the early 80's. After high-school I got away from it for many years, but this year I started up again with some buddies from work. I've...
