    Personally, I think that last factor counts as multiple factors. Say... numbers three through five.

    On second thought, never mind. *walks away*

    Would you pay for so-called Online "Dungeon/Dragon" content from WotC?

    Another cry out for a "yes, but..." option. I hope they have a nice "1 month trial" thing when it starts up. If that happens then I will give them the money for one month and then make my decision about continuing. Nightfall, I fully agree that their past web support has a reputation that is...

    Sell me on Wizards books published since Complete Divine

    My personal favorites include the Spell Compendium, Magic Item Compendium and Player's Handbook II. All of these are include stuff for all classes, all playstyles (that allow beyond core at least) and both new and experienced players. There will definately be something in each of these books...

    Most Often Used Skill?

    The top two are Tumble and Concentration. A very distant place behind them would be number three and four which are Search and Spot.

    D&D 4E Should Spell Resistance make it into 4e

    I'm with the "roll SR into saves" set. Giving the creatures with SR an evation like mechanic for all magic based saves should work for the all or nothing effect. Antimagic Fields drive me nuts. It should just supress active effects. no more Haste or Bull's Strength. No flaming swords. Keep...

    Save My Game - Goes off like a bomb!

    I will agree with you that he seemed harsh on the DM asking the question. We don't know what the players did or dind't try. On the other hand we don't know that the players did NOT try any of those tactics and we don't know what hints were given by the DM. We just don't have enough info to...

    D&D 4E Star Wars Saga Edition as preview of 4e?

    It struck me more as Bo9S maneuvers with being able to get them back after resting. Likely a way to avoid Sith "casting" force lighting every turn and also avoid the Self Kill effect the last edition had.

    D&D 4E Star Wars Saga Edition as preview of 4e?

    One problem that has alluded to (by multiple people) is the "after the fact" record keeping of the the skills. Adding multiple +2s isn't difficult math. pouring through books trying to get +100 at 2nd level is a joy for some people. Where I run into trouble is auditing charcaters even two or...

    Star Wars Saga Edition [SECR] Preview #2 is Up

    What was the basic idea behind how that worked?

    Star Wars Saga Edition [SECR] Preview #2 is Up

    I'm kind of expecting that the Jedi class will get Skill Focus (Use The Force) for free somewhere along the line. I figure that would be one of the things that will help set that class apart from other classes.

    D&D 4E Star Wars Saga Edition as preview of 4e?

    Maybe not 15 minutes, but definately less than an hour. If I was going to create a character for a brand new homegrown campaign I might spend hours pouring over books looking for fun combos. Rethinking a character concept in my head for weeks and emailing my DM ideas for background and asking...

    Star Wars Saga Edition [SECR] Preview #2 is Up

    I still hear a lot on these boards about players having problems with what causes an Attack of Opprotunity. This chart would be the same basic setup but be a lot larger.

    Star Wars Saga Edition [SECR] Preview #2 is Up

    I like most of what I see here but I still have some questions/reservations of the system. A big concern I have with this setup is the 'what uses are Trained Only' question. While having entire skills be Trained Only didn't always make sense, it was easy to mark on the character sheet. I'm...

    D&D 4E Star Wars Saga Edition as preview of 4e?

    After reading this my main concern is the question 'what part of skill X is Trained Only?' Player: Can I do this? GM: Nope, that's for Trained Only. Player: What about this? GM: Trained Only. Player: Let me guess... GM: Yup. While having an entire skill be Trained Only may not have made sense...

    [Rant] Do editing/proofreading errors drive you mad, too?

    Do I wish the errors weren't there? Yes, I do. Am I bothered by them? Not really.

    Wolfgang's "Demonweb Q&A"

    Okay... Player handouts are cool. I hate Tomb of Horrors but that is one thing I will give it. It had a lot of handouts and a lot of chances for the DM to go "it looks like this." I think that gives the chance for the players to imagine the situation a lot better and have a larger chance of...
