    Classes and Roles: supply and demand

    Well that is quite mysterious, and I wonder why it's the case. However, Wizards has stated dozens of times in articles and whatnot that everything is core. In addition, here's a quote directly from the FRPG [page 5]: (Emphasis mine.) I don't have a problem if people want to exclude certain...

    Moving the Story Forward

    My group hasn't even attempted more than one encounter in any of our weekly 2-3 hour sessions :( I'm not really sure what the delay is. It makes it tough to move the story at any speedy pace. ~

    Classes and Roles: supply and demand

    This. And don't forget that Dungeon & Dragon are core as well. ~

    Fluff Time! Share your Warlock Curses!

    My warlock wasn't really proud of it, and didn't really want anyone else in the party to know where his powers came from. He was from a wizarding school and tried to pass as a wizard. When he cursed, he would do it silently, creating an awkward tension that only he and his cursed target could...

    Classes and Roles: supply and demand

    The swordmage is core. Everything published by WotC is core, according to their 4E definition of the concept. Breaking away from core, you could also try the rune soldier ;) (see my sig) My group: Gnoll Rogue (striker) Saproling [Tvari 3PP] Artificer (leader) Catfolk [+2Str,+2Cha Longtooth...

    How many classes are enough?

    As a player, there's about a 75% chance that I would pass on a game that didn't have a bunch of options for classes. (Or, if it happened to allow the exact class(es) I wanted to play, I guess that would work out.) As a 4E player who sometimes feels a 3.5 itch, I've wondered about Pathfinder...

    AOTA freebie even after Inland Hurricane!

    Thanks, and very cool :) And sorry about your hurricane situation :( And sorry for complaining in your other thread . . . but how about those previews for your other products? Those image links are broken. You know, something to think about once you get electricity back and your house fixed. ;) ~

    [Adamant] VENTURE 4th: By Skill Alone

    That would be the errata where skill DCs were lowered and skill challenge complexities were revised. ~

    [S7S] FREE Rune Soldier Heroic Tier Playtest 4E

    When the worlds were young, before mortals could read or write languages of their own, the scripts of the gods and primordials were used to unlock deep magical potential. You have managed an impressive collection of knowledge about these power-infused calligarphies, and you now carry an...

    Artifacts and Petroglyphs

    It's May 8th and no art yet :( Also, I've been looking through your old art sets for publishers and there are no working previews . . . I pretty much need those to know which set to get, if any :) ~

    Shouldn't it be Target: One adjacent with only 1 hit point. ? ~

    Converting ritual scrolls to books?

    In The Lunar Scrolls there are lunar rituals that, instead of scrolls, use 'lunar artifacts'. These are like the gems you suggested, but instead of gems they're just whatever kind of object fits the ritual. For example, the Conjure Moonwater ritual (I think that's what it was called) may have a...

    Some Early D&DI information

    Exciting news. I'm happy to see the DDI stuff getting constant improvements/support . . . so did you see the thread "WotC: Character Builder's effect on Third Party Publishers"? ;) ~

    Telling players about the consequences of PC actions

    Did the PCs get info from Nolor? If so, he should have said "but be careful, because they might figure out I told you and kill me!" Then, when they don't do anything to stop it, and he dies, they'll realize they should have seen it coming. Not satisfying per se, but it would definitely make...

    [Kraken Eye] Esoterica: Grafted

    Oh, it's a feat. It doesn't actually say that anywhere, and the stuff about "choose your graft when you create your character" made me think that it's a racial option or something. If it's a feat it should indicate as much, as well as saying it needs to be taken at first level. (If it doesn't...

    [Kraken Eye] Esoterica: Grafted

    I'm having a little trouble understanding this supplement, after having read through it. Does the grafting stuff replace all of your racial stuff? Or does it get added on? If it gets added on, aren't you basically getting a free power? ~

    WotC: Character Builder's effect on Third Party Publishers

    I'm also somewhat saddened. However, according to this poll: http://www.enworld.org/forum/general-rpg-discussion/255657-i-currently-play-x-edition-i-do-dont-buy-who-knows-some-silly-acronym-wotc-boards-stuff-poll.html . . . the slightly larger half of 4E players/DMs still allow 3PPs. How...

    Conversion

    Here's a quick idea I got from reading your post: The PCs are tasked to find either the elves or dwarves and try to get their help (perhaps the PCs get to choose). Another group sent by the kingdom/whatever goes to garner help from the other race (elves/dwarves). When the PCs return successful...

    WotC: Character Builder's effect on Third Party Publishers

    Do you hear this Wizards!? The character builder is great, and people love it [too much], so let us third party publishers ride along with you on the wave of the future! ~

    WotC: Character Builder's effect on Third Party Publishers

    I don't really use the character builder, despite having a DDI subscription. That's mainly because it doesn't support 'house rules' (read: 3PPs) very well/at all. Scanning over some D&D games starting up, many DMs allow 'anything in the character builder.' Though none spelled it out, I'd expect...
