Interesting! I was thinking heavily about this exact same idea, and almost posted something to this effect several times. This is just what the gaming stores need to move toward, in order to stay viable in the face of rapidly growing online commerce.

Cool. $

Haha! I laughed. $

I'd love to see them do a few articles on orcs like this.

This response doesn't appear to have anything to do with my post. I guess I just don't understand. $

On Earth, as far as the scientific community knows, people who are seriously injured to the point of near-death generally take weeks or months to heal. - D&D does not claim to take place on Earth. Homo sapiens sapiens, as a whole, are generally considered to be incapable of forcing their...

So, so true. That video is awesome! I love the fact that 4E has taken such steps toward eliminating "Angel Summoner vs. BMX Bandit Syndrome", because I definitely saw it rear its ugly head plenty of times in 3.x and in other role-playing games. $

I agree with this! $

Thanks, glad you like him. His name is Bolger. No, but really, what you said there about wanting to know what's actually happening in the game world makes sense to me. Sorry if I came across as a bit too snarky.

Yay!

I'm not entirely sure what you mean by that.

Crazy talk!

I wonder why everyone seems to have no problem at all with Wizards and Clerics who are totally "divorced from reality", but anyone with a sword in his hand had better be exactly like the next door neighbor in real life...

Wow, I really dislike this "poll" system. So, I post the thread, thinking I'll get to make my poll before it goes up. Then it keeps kicking me back to the poll screen because my answers are too long, and then it tells me that I had to have posted the poll within 10 minutes of posting the...

So, I have a theory. Let's see how the poll turns out. For those of you who are largely happy with 4E, especially its classes, powers system, and resource management model . . . did you typically prefer spellcaster-types or non-spellcaster-types in earlier editions? For those of you who are...

Was the word "wrongbadfun" in the same sentence? It should have been. (I kid.)

Yeah, I loved this. It made me happy. I actually run a pretty darn by-the-book game, generally, but I am fairly repulsed by RAW-cultists. People who start preaching about "The RAW" like its an ancient sacred text make me cringe. "Spirit of the rules" is a phrase I like much, much more.

Yeah. I don't argue because I want the other fellow to shut up or say, "Oh wow, you're right!" I argue because I want to learn. People usually won't tell you the really good stuff that they've thought up unless you disagree with them a bit first.

Those sound MORE intimidating than havoc gnolls...

Attach a laser beam to your solo monster's head. Terrain which highly favors the monster and which is disadvantageous or dangerous for the PCs can make a fairly unimpressive fight into a scary brush with death. Throw in like 10-20 lower-level minions with your solo, just to harry the heroes...
