    D&D 4E My Warlord Concept - Why Does 4e Fail?

    It's possible that the guy is just in a bad mood because he through his character idea wouldn't fit; assuming he's 100% anit-4E and making sarcastic remarks back isn't a good way to help things. The comments on the PHB Lite and Warlord/Ranger multiclass seem like the only real ideas in this...

    Smuggled photos

    I think(for whatever reason) Wizards has decided that everything magical has to glow. Which I disagree with wholeheartedly. But hey, it's not like that'll effect my game, so what do I care what their pictures look like?

    The same can be said of fluff; look back to your DMGs, and try to honestly tell me that the Justiciar's fluff entry is any less than, say, the Shadowdancer's. 3.x edition prestige classes only took up more space because of the huge progression tables and ability descriptions(which were...

    Appeal of the defender?

    Much agreed. Record of the Lodoss War is basically DnD the Anime. The main character starts off as dirt-farmer with a sword and gets beaten around by a Hobgoblin he barely managed to kill, and ends as a powerful fighter who helps take down dragons and epic wizards. Even the races/'classes'...

    The "H" Series

    Slightly off topic, but I really can't wait until they release this adventure in Japan... every time I see the 'H' series, I keep thinking about how the Japanese use the 'H'(ecchi) as a word for 'perverted'. XD

    D&D 4E 4E Aberrations

    I'm putting together a one-shot 4E Lite demo for a few friends of mine, in an attempt to create a new group after my most reliable players went out and joined the Marines. It'll be based very loosely on The Mist(as I haven't actually seen it, and just like the concept of aberrations originating...

    D&D 4E More 4e Monsters

    I agree deathdonut on both accounts, actually. Boiling water will burn you, not question, but it wont do any more lasting damage than a fire-based burn... the only difference between the two, in terms of damage capability, is the inability to light clothing aflame. Which should rule out lasting...

    My attempt at a martial controller: The Monk

    On the topic of Martial Controllers... I have a hard time seeing the Monk as one. In fact, the only two good examples of Martial Controllers that come to mind are some sort of specialty archer(although that might be stepping into the Arcane Archer's territory...) or something like a Siege...

    D&D 4E A Satisfactory game of 4E

    I tend to over-prepare a bit, so that seems like a very small amount of time... but then again, I generally don't plan small adventures. I plan from start to finish, rather than planning just enough for one session, which has worked well for me so far. The stuff that doesn't get used can also be...

    DMG Excerpt: Customizing Monsters

    I don't think this has been said yet, but about the Lich template's uses: Yes, it could be useful for all types of characters, but I believe it can only be granted to casters. It isn't in the requirements, but since a ritual is likely needed to attain the template, this would restrict its...
