    Playtest Update

    If you look at it from the other direction though, almost half of the people playtesting it didn't like it. And from other comments I've read around the interwebs, some of the items that have been reported as needing work are still the same things from the Friends and Family playtest.

    D&D 3.x 3.5 Edition Reprints

    And while I fully support them in doing business and selling reprints of older edition materials, my question is, have they almost completely stopped supporting 4th Edition on the web site? It's almost all "ads" for reprints or them shilling DnD Next.

    So the playtest is out: What do you think? The EN World poll!

    I fall somewhere between dislike and hate, leaning more towards dislike I suppose. I don't like the retro throwback rules design (and yes, I've played since BESCI on through to 4E), and the seeming lack of rules to the game. I do like some of it (the idea of the advantage/disadvantage the...

    A bear in Athas?

    Use a bear, give it a scaly hide (or maybe a shell of some kind). Kind of like a shark being made into a silt shark.

    Is Encounters dying?

    Never got my stuff for this season, after MANY emails to CS.

    VT Beta getting CB/AT importing this week

    True, but color me jaded over their recent performance with their tools. I'm not optimistic at this point.

    D&D 4E What If?: Greyhawk 4e in 2012

    Yeah, and they also said that they would have all of those cool electronic tools. They have said a lot of things that haven't come to pass (most of them recently though). That being "vented", I'd prefer they not do Greyhawk. Not a big fan, but I'm not sure they would do it justice at this point.

    VT Beta getting CB/AT importing this week

    So, the VTT won't import all the needed info? Wow, I'm shocked that they are "cutting corners". Sigh...:hmm:

    Only ten articles in Dragon this month?

    Problem is, even when they make a statement and don't deliver on it (i.e., that the newest ToCs would be up before the end of this past weekend -- which they weren't, and that the January EoDS would be up on Monday -- which it wasn't), they won't fess up to it or even comment on it.

    Is the character builder down for anyone else?

    It is "down" for me, but it's only because I refuse to pay for the crap they are now referring to DDI as.

    DDXP Liveblogging

    Well, that's not a good way for a game store to stay in business, because if the prices are too high, the customers who come for the games will bring their own snacks and drinks. And there's really not that much profit margin (from what my FLGS owner friend has told me) in selling snacks and...

    D&D 4E 4e conversion of Desert of Desolation?

    I was toying around with using it for my Dark Sun game, but scrapped it when I realized that some of the stuff just didn't "jive" very well with the setting. I've noticed that my players aren't really that into the Dark Sun game (every combat encounter is deadly, and it's beginning to "grind"...

    D&D 4E 4e conversion of Desert of Desolation?

    I started to try to convert it, but found out that I basically had to go back and rewrite every encounter to balance it. Encounters then weren't "balanced" per se, and (as an example), there is an encounter with some giant spiders (maybe 2, can't recall of the top of my head), and just going...

    Ampersand to reveal mystery of the disappearing books (apparently)

    Wow, and here I am still contemplating re-subbing to DDI, but at every turn, they give me less and less reason to do so. No more magazines? Articles that don't have deadlines (because they have to be "proofed")? A still buggy and not-up-to-date character builder? No monster builder? Wow...

    So why don't they? Still no inherent bonuses, can't get off-hand weapon damage right, items are still not included (from AUGUST), etc...

    D&D 4E 4E Adventures

    My group and I agree! Now I just need to come up with the other 2 parts to the Crown of Dust to let them find, have it stolen from them and used by an insane teifling cultist, who is bound and determined to bring the Primordials back to Athas and destroy it!

    D&D 4E 4E Adventures

    My group just finished Mauraders of the Dune Sea, and I really didn't like DMing it, and the group didn't seem to enjoy it too much. There was just too much disconnect in the hooks and in the module itself. The encounters seemed to be too hard at times or not enough of a challenge.
