Pre-2E Caverns of Thracia Dark Tower D1-3 2E Gates of Firestorm Peak Night Below The Shattered Circle: often overlooked and underrated 3.xE Sons of Gruumsh: it's easy to ignore because it's FR Red Hand of Doom: it's a travesty that Scales of War claimed to be the successor to this because...

I'm surprised by the new format for stat blocks. I don't think I have seen a single complaint about the existing format or anything else that would provoke such a revision. More importantly, I wonder how long before we will see the Monster Builder updated to generate the new stat blocks? And I...

I think these were called Losel in 2E D&D.

My view of the way WotC creates an adventure path is this: - monsters are assembled randomly to create an encounter; - encounters are assembled randomly to create an adventure; and - adventures are assembled randomly to create an adventure path. I don't want another adventure path unless and...

I am proud to present the multitesticled scrotumbeast in all its glory (aka flesh jelly).

Primal areas that spring to mind: - Uthgardt barbarians of the North; - Rashemen; and - the Jungles of Chult.

I don't mind a lot of the new portmanteaus. They're easy enough to change but at least they are simple to pronounce. I actually prefer them for the names of dinosaurs but I can understand others not liking that. R A Salvatore is the worst person to be quoting, IMO. He's the George Lucas of...

Can you guys please fork the rogue debate? This is a really good thread otherwise. I'm loving the amount of detail being given to the world of Golarion. I can't wait to see the Kingmaker adventure path and the one involving serpents that follows. I'm happy if Paizo just keeps producing...

And one of my top 10 movies of all time (and has a fantastic soundtrack!).

Absolutely. I want WotC to learn that: 1. An encounter is not made up of unrelated creatures whose roles and powers combine to make said encounter "interesting". 2. An adventure is not made of an unrelated set of encounters containing unrelated creatures. 3. An adventure path is not made up of...

My players are pretty lazy when it comes to exploring options for their characters so I am not seeing ritual use yet. To try and entice them to consider it I have included a couple of sites in my current adventure that allow the casting of a ritual without components by using the inherent magic...

This point is also rather irrelevant because a country with limited internet access is also a country that lacks the purchasing power to develop a D&D player base because of the financial inability to purchase the books. The ability to purchase D&D books, a luxury item, basically places you...

DDi subscriptions are really cheap so just subscribe. Problem solved.

Good post... but I'm not allowed to give you more XP, but I did follow the link!

I've DMed FR since the original grey box and am now running my games in the 4E version. I don't actually need any support because, unlike others, my old stuff provides me with the basis for what I need. However, I really would like to see more regional articles, not for the articles per se, but...

I wanted to have rune magic IMC but couldn't be bothered creating a class that couldn't be used in the Character Builder. Reading the artificer, I realised how perfectly that suited rune magic. In some ways I like it better as a rune mage than as a by-the-book artificer!

I can't give you XP it seems but wanted to thank you for yet another insightful post.

I draw the map for the party on graph paper like I first started doing 29 years ago and then the most artistic player draws that to the battle map if we have a combat. I have all the dungeon tiles but they're simply not practical most of the time. They're nigh on impossible to keep track of so...

If we get logically-designed encounter groups in the MM3 then the next step would be logically-designed encounter groups in WotC's adventures. Hmmm... I wonder if that will mean the adventures will soon stop sucking?

I would. They're great and I want to thank you again for posting them.
