    D&D 4E Paizo and 4e.

    Not to put too fine a point on it but I can post to any thread I feel like. Erik Mona's comment in this thread echoed some things I have heard said around here and CM so I thought it might be interesting to contrast and compare not only things Mr. Mona said but others can take a look at some of...

    Casters Suck? Please explain.

    "Well there's yer problem" /Adam Savage You can't seriously expect a party of 3 (Monk, Sorcerer and Cleric(?) I think you said) to have a hope of doing well. All of you will get the stuffing beaten out of you by the first 'hard' target that comes along (hobgoblin soldiers would make short work...

    Casters Suck? Please explain.

    Distant Advantage I think it is called. A feat that allows you to get CA if a creature is currently granting it due to being flanked and/or other effects. Nearly every implement/ranged user I have ever seen has picked up this feat eventually. Then your defenders are sucking at their job (or...

    D&D 4E Paizo and 4e.

    Huh. I wonder what Mr Mona would say now... ;)

    DDI Monster Builder

    That you have to keep paying for. That is something I ain't ever gonna do. Neither does the blind fanboyism.

    Rules change ruined the economy!

    I would run with this idea myself. Have it set up that, until recently, the only way to identify magical items was with a pearl of 100gp worth. Then a magical researcher came across a way to do it cheaper (I don't know PF is identify basically free to cast now?) Despite the nation in...

    Nice premade fantasy tokens?

    In addition to what has already been mentioned there is also Dapper Devil who makes plastic tokens and trays to display them in. Pricey but really good looking. also Gale Force 9 with their DM Token box set. I personally own this one and really like it. For less than $30 you get a good...

    You down with OCB?

    Yeah - I'm in the same boat (not the 80% of my group are programmers just the incomprehension of the tech-talk here). I don't care how or why WotC did this or that - I care about the usability of the product. What I have read is not convincing me the online CB is worth the time or bother (or...

    No PDF for Ashadarlon?

    Well since WotC just released a copy of Dungeon magazine with no adventures in it I wouldn't put anything pass them now...

    A Possible Way Forward for D&D (And a design pitch for WotC!)

    My board game group is starting a new campaign of this tonight!! Love the Road to Legend expansion - you get a (light) RPG without any work!

    You down with OCB?

    Let my subscription lapse a month ago and still haven't heard anything that would make me want it back. If I ever hear of that load-after-every-click thing going away I might re-up for a month.

    Rifts vs D&D

    Just don't put it anywhere on the 'net or Siembieda will Cease and Desist you post haste. ;) I admit I haven't read much of RIFTS but what little I have (and own) really leaves me cold. A completely f'ed system tied to a outlandish setting - no thanks. So D&D vs. RIFTS D&D WINS! FLAWLESS...

    DM's word is final... and illogical?

    Do you want all the questions about your PCs past answered out of game, or in game? That is about the only valid question you can have at this point.

    How do you handle this situation?

    Have a pint of oil and a lit torch next to every asleep adventurer. What?:devil:

    WotC has ended support for Living Forgotten Realms (and the RPGA, too)

    The vast majority of those clones are dead now. M:tG is actually experiencing quite the resurgence in popularity and has eclipsed D&D in sales for a long, long time. Most RPGers really have no idea how tiny their market really is in comparison.
