I've used the knight in play. Thumbs way up. The ability to deny a foe a 5-foot step within your zone of control is freaking cool. Especially if you're Large because you're a centaur. :]

We collect differently. I make maybe half a dozen RPG purchases a year, and every once in a while I purge the books I never use. My entire collection is a reasonable three shelves. :)

Fantastic book. Best D&D purchase since the original PHB in 2000. Finally, high-level feat chains for fighters and rogues, and the variant class features (shapeshift, woot) are very very cool. Hot damn!

There is no way I'd take a .pdf over a print book--I don't want my collection to be subject to computer viruses, software incompatibilities, hardware malfunctions, and any other debilitating problem that a PC can cough up. I'll just lug 'em around, thanks.

Killing a helpless foe? Not to turn this into an alignment discussion, but that's a pretty evil thing to do.

Would you use one as a BBEG?

That's not surprise casting, that's the cloaked casting feature.

Don't get me wrong, I think it's a neat idea for a class. But as far as I can tell, while a beguiler is adept at incapacitating enemies, he is absolutely incapable of killing them. Verses undead, he seems nearly as useless as a rogue, unless, like a rogue, he keeps maximum ranks in Use magic...

I just use the Suthay-raht form, the one from Morrowind. D&D stats are based on the catfolk humanoid race from the Minatures Handbook. KHAJIIT The catlike khajiit hail from scattered islands in the Serpent Archipelago, where they live in relative isolation and harmony with the natural world...

Any of the following classes can fill the archetypal role without multiclassing. Arcane--beguiler, sorcerer, warlock, wizard, wu jen [Driving criterion: Spell list flexibility. For warlocks, this is covered in part by the ability to use any magic item through the Use Magic Device skill.]...

Human is by far the most common race played among my friends. For my homebrew, I use an eclectic mix. IN BRIEF Humans are adaptable, diverse, and industrious, and many human kingdoms flourish upon eastern Eriador. A human’s favored class is simply the class she has the most levels in. Aelfborn...

Gaming is just a reflection of life, Baroness.

I believe that's in Unearthed Arcana. I'm definitely using this variant next time I start a new D&D campaign.

Me too. If I wasn't wrapped up in running two D&D campaigns, I'd love to finally sink my teeth into GMing Shadowrun. Definitely have to have the right group, though.

As DM, I routinely include sexuality in the game sessions I run for one of my groups, and avoid it altogether with the other. Why? Simply put, because in the former group, it's fun and adds to the roleplaying, and in the latter it's acutely uncomfortable and does not. Every game group is...

Forgive me if there's a thread on this somewhere. How would I go about finding a roommate or five for GenCon?

Skuld sniffed the scything breeze that wafted up the craggy pass, inhaling sharply once, then again, before wresting a nose-full of bracing air into his powerful lungs. With a gangling, warty arm, he reached over his hulking shoulder and scratched the small of his back. Even for a mountain...

Not to mention the question was asked on a D&D board. It's just assumed. In the south, everyone calls a soda a "Coke," even if they're ordering a Sprite. Same thing. WAITRESS: "What'll you have, sug?" SOUTHERNER: "Think I'll have a Coke." WAITRESS: "What kind, babe?" SOUTHERNER: "Mountain...

Don't get me started. Endure elements alone is enough to negate a wide range of environmental survival issues. Freaking first-level spell. :\

*golf clap* Thank yew, folks. He'll be here alllll week.
