    Full roster of PHB3 races known yet?

    So now that we've seen this month's preview... what race is that archer in the 5th PHB3 picture?

    Dragon #382 - More Toys for the Assassin

    Gnolls are going to seriously kick ass as assassins. And "Resolve of the Iron Terminator" has my vote for best-named 4E feat.

    Was AD&D1 designed for game balance?

    Given the level-limits for PCs and the progression of the classes that are right there in the PHB, I can't agree with this. Balance issues were, if anything, secondary.

    PHB3 Debut: Ardent Speculation

    Characters are not trained as 4E classes. If I was to play Tanis Half-Elven in a 4E game, I would be playing a warlord. Why? Because that's what Tanis does in the story. What would Tanis tell people? If anything, Tanis would tell people that he's a ranger, because that's his role in the world...

    Drow overpowered?

    For many of the monsters I have seen and use, the poison is automatic. But there are lots of automatic damage foes out there. Poison is something that can be easily defeated with cheap alchemists items. Any ongoing damage can be assisted with a healing check from an ally.

    PHB3 Debut: Ardent Speculation

    Consider this: no PC should ever say any of the above.

    D&D 4E Running 4E combats quickly

    I have to say, my game has sped up appreciably with the use of Mortaneus' DND4eCombatManager (& I was using most of these tips already). It seriously rocks. DnD4eCM - RPGnetWiki

    Damaging Allies in Combat - Is it acceptable?

    I like the ideas, both the implement thing in general and the idea of a specific item set.

    Damaging Allies in Combat - Is it acceptable?

    Sho 'nuff. But I think that Holy Bovine is testy because he's got to miss our game this weekend. And they will need that defender. I think I should point out that in our game, the first big PC damaging hit came about because the Wizard didn't know his spell well enough and sent an acid arrow at...

    Converting old maps?

    Is it possible to print the maps from the map program? If that is the case, you could try various "print to file" options. If you can print to pdf somehow, then you should be able to recover from there.

    Classic 1E Mods in 4E?

    I think this can't be understated. Especially if one's players are familiar with D&D history. Many of the 1st Ed adventures are very hack and slash/kick down doors in design and may easily give cues to the players to behave in a very violent manner than they might otherwise exploit. I think...

    That isn't even a good joke.

    Damaging Allies in Combat - Is it acceptable?

    As the DM for that game, I can attest that it was only a matter of time before that player hit another PC with his attacks. And we still talk about it, every game session.

    Most underrated feat(s)

    Yes indeed. And it is worth it to shift two squares to do this instead of one if one has the boots of the fencing master. Anyone with the Mark of Passage feat should pick up the boots, as the give +1 to AC (and reflex, I think) whenever the wearer shifts at least two squares.

    Most underrated feat(s)

    You can't do this because the power explicitly says that you slide the target 1 square. In situations where one does not have enough squares to move an opponent into a particular square, the effect does not work.
