    OotS #661 is up!

    So Rich is taking writing advice from CLAMP? List of Magic Knight Rayearth characters - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Mokona Modoki - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Mhmm... I don't think any of the Monster Manuals have any "cute monster with plot device powers" in their pages though...

    Unconscious Ranger - What does the Beast do?

    Up to here, agreed Here we disagree... I think that the fact that the panther has to make a jump check in order to see if she gets to do a charge attack is enough penalty. After all, we DMs need to reward creative thinking (Rule of Cool and all that)

    "pure" survivable, or "mixed" mandatory?

    wow... I just want to say that I am glad to have players who don't like to "play against type" just to get a couple of extra points of AC So I am quite happy that in my game, the Wizard still doesn't wear armor, the cleric wields a morningstar and the rogue throws daggers The fighter does...

    Dammnation

    Wow... Now I want to run an adventure where they have to rescue a cultist and deal with all these feelings

    Expertise justification?

    While I agree that only hitting every 4 rounds on every fight is not fun, I think assuming that the game is only fun when you hit on a roll of 9 on a d20 is taking it too far... I think you hitting an average, equal level opponent on an 11 is ok I think hitting a level+4, very dangerous...

    War of the Burning Sky 4E?

    YAY!! I am sooo buying it as soon as it comes out!

    Expertise justification?

    Excellent summary! I completely agree! However, the fact that this promised article has not yet come tells me that some people in WotC are not very proud of that feat, for whatever reason...

    Expertise justification?

    Dunno... consensus? Thanks Nail, you got it! You are right guys... We still need to think this through... So, back to square one and the feat remains banned (even if no one in my group wants it) ;)

    Expertise justification?

    I don't see anything wrong with it, everybody in my gaming group suggests feats or powers to each other all the time (we rotate DM duties). No one is offended, since we all realize that an RPG campaign is a story we all make together... Currently no one in the group has even shown an interest...

    Expertise justification?

    Well, I know this might not be useful to you, but I have found that restricting the expertise feats to the suboptimal or MAD builds is a good fix for my campaign. Of course my campaign remains in heroic level, and I may change my mind and give everyone a +X to attacks if we do find this alleged...

    Los?

    Mhmm, tricky... I'm not a D&Di subscriber and I don't have that particular free issue in this computer, but just working out of memory: Artificer: The dwarf with the goggles exclaims "Dang, that looks like a nasty burn! Wait a sec boy! I got a good remedy for that!" He takes out a small...

    Alternity clone?

    I also believe that a "4th edition D20 Modern/Future/Supers" engine would be a very good idea... I missed Alternity... I stopped playing rpg's around the mid nineties and started playing again a couple of years ago... What made it so great?

    Gaming Group Turns 27!

    Let me express my huge admiration. Just thinking about it I can tell that this is a group of people who show a level of love and loyalty that is not easily found these days. Hat off to you! (and your wives too!)

    The 3 Core Books plus THIS ONE BOOK are all you can use to game--What's the one book?

    I am also going to have to vote for the PHB2 (4E), although the adventurers vault is almost as indispensable. Despite my original misgivings, I am going to have to admit that WotC has so far succeded in their "yearly core books" strategy. ...and I feel that the PHB3 will also be indispensable...

    How much controll do you give your players?

    In our current 4E game, my DM sends us emails with info like: "Luka is going to be 5th level very soon, please tell me which new power he will get. Also, in the next session when you guys get downtime, please describe what is Luka doing to learn that new power." or "Luka is going to get a...

    Los?

    I know you are trying to be ironic, but your second example is correct. Some more examples (based on each healer class): Cleric: "Pelor do not forsake us! Heal my comrade so he can serve you!". A wash of holy light flows over you, easing your pain and returning your strenght. Some pseudo-Latin...
