because, I think, they were never introduced to the playtest.

I think I have a bit of an idea... once I get a chance to work them up, I'll post it up

5e needs swarm rules.... I ran a combat this weekend where the heroes kicked up a next of rats (I used the stats from the play-test and tweaked the numbers to be more inline with the monsters from the box set) and the combat felt bogged down, also it lacked the "scaryness" of just being...

So, what do you think will be added to Basic this Friday? I know some people have been saying we might see monsters added...

And the political correct head hunt comes to RPGs..... As someone who works in the industry, I can attest that we have some amazingly good and some shockingly horrible people... being honest here... just because two complete ass-hats where involved in a game's production is not a reason to not...

Correct, you can play a Nobel who is also a criminal... or a Charlatan (Example: Locke Lamora... What?!?! You have yet read the Gentlemen Bastards books? what are you doing reading this? go.... shoo.... get... buy the first book (Lies of Locke Lamora) and thank me later.

Correct, the GM can have you roll or not.. for example lets say that you are in a particularly epic point in your story with a lot of drama, you could had wave any random wild surge or come up with one on the fly that better fits the scene... and when the hell did players start looking at GM...

Wild Magic Surge Deck Table using tarot cards or Deck of Many Things cards

Umm.. they are not called Epic's or what-ever but they have Convention only events and 2-hr intro adventures.. just saying not the same thing.... as it fails to tie into convention play

Correct, we didn't start BI's, the first BI's where done in Living City.. we took the idea and expanded upon it. This one is all ours (Arcanis) we started our campaign the year after 3.0 was published, and the campaign had secret societies from day one. Well Said Sir!!

just sucks that I already have about 10 players who are not even going to bother getting 5e becaise they can play PFS any time / any place they want :/

yep, we (PCI) did it with Arcanis, Xen'drik Expeditions picked it up after that, then PF and now D&D Encounters. though I think we where the only ones to do secret orders that sometimes put players in direct opposition to the rest of the party..... back on topic >>> I still think limiting...

::::grumbles::::: I wish people would remember the first living campaign to use organizations and intergrate them into campaign play and have them give player motivations within adventures (aka secret missions) was was "Living Arcanis" (not pathfinder) :::grumbles::::

Hammer meet nail

The mechanic is already supported with the Sacred Flame spell... auto hit, save for zero damage.

they are... it's called D&D..... it's been this way from 1st edition.. wan't a fighter with "magical" abilities? create some feats (easy to do), let them go eldrich knight, or have each fighter become a "paragon" of X or Y by 20th level (Paragon of <name of god of strength>) and give them...

ok, fine, fair enough

you want more Hercules less Indigo Montoya you want legendary godling at 20th.... I think you may want to create your own feat chain.... the last thing I want is my 20th level duelist to be the equivalent of a half-god

I had a chance to look them over and I feel the same way... I pray that they changed the feats from this "alpha" version... It would be grand if someone from WoTC would come out and out our fears to rest.

there are a lot more changes then those... I hope the people that have acquired this (illegal mind you) copy understand it is NOT the final version of the rules....
