Nah, if they produced a 4 volume megabook, they'd have to call it "Complete Complete"

I had gotten used to "Complete Expert" already. Oh well.

Aggreed. If it came between not having any collection or a collection without a bunch of hack-eyed short fiction, I say drop the fiction.

RttToEE is a very by the books dungeon crawl. Its very deadly, full of powerful monsters and NPCs, and has "phat lewt" by the truckload. It's story is nothing special. If you group can stand going through a single dungeon for months at a time, they might like it.

Well duh, but I figured TSR would have made sure to include a "we reserve all right to republish material without further compensation to the author" clause of their contracts.

I am surprised that with TSR the freelancers who wrote for Dragon didn't have to sign over their first born son, much less were able to sue saying that the digital collection was new work.

Ah, but the lower the population is, the fewer people you get to kill!

For a while after I started playing, AD&D 2ed was all I knew. I started playing in 97, and while I knew perfectly well other games existed (I bought Shadowrun books instead of buying AD&D books when I started playing AD&D, relying on loaned copies of the books to get by in the campaign. :D) I...

No, as it is a HUGE paper. But generally, he was unimpressed.

It's the same way in the games I play, but probley for a whole nother reason. :P

Why bother with the level of sorc? Even the most medicore of Use Magic Device checks will succeed for a 0 level spell.

While they may still be powerful, the multiclass experience penalty is not balancing. The multiclass experience penalty is keep players from dabling in base classes, that have no requirments, to become more powerful though min-maxing. Prestige classes already have a different form of...

Yes, but people are confused about a lot of things that are very explicitly spelled out in the PHB. I left a group today after I found out they tought 1 on skill checks was an automatic failure, and a botch to boot!

PrCs should be powerful, they require (often times) strict requirements to get into.

I think Dragon and Dungeon are pretty hard up for subscribers, and its an offical source with good articals and good editing.

You can certainly hold as many wands as you want, hold a few dozen in your hands, cram a couple into your mouth, stick some between your toes, stuff a few your butt. You can still only use one of them per round though.

Generally speaking, unless your abilities are so low they prevent you from carrying gear or using spells, or they are so high you are getting +20 ability modifiers from them, abilities are not very important at high levels.

Not really, you can find many examples in the book that are similar. For example, the Sleep spell. It says that the sleep spell does not affect sleeping targets. Would you take that to mean that someone who failed their save against Sleep is only "asleep" in regards to the person who cast the...

Actually, NC Soft and a couple of other Korean companies have had the most successful online RPGs. Lineage 1 boasts about 4 times as many currently active players than the number of people who have ever played EverQuest, and Legend of Mir 2 has twice what Lineage has.

I'd kill to beta WoW or EQ2. I played COH, and while briefly fun, I was bored within a week.
