Mistakes can be adventures in disguise. the style, fabric, design all things point to an age of two centuries, but these nations were not founded so long ago! How can such artifacts exist? Magical forgeries? Or are they something stranger yet?

Thats it. Quivers and scabbards are officially the six-pack plastic rings of the D&D world.

Wierd! I never noticed that before. I guess you just keep buying new ones with every set of arrows! Adventuring archers are such divas. "I simply CAN'T be seen with the same quiver as I used last level!"

Out of curiousity, weren't there published adventures in the early days that were basically the PCs following around heroes and watching them be cool? I think I recall a trilogy of those about the king of the dales or something like that. No hostility, I'm genuinly curious.

Look, dude. I agree with you. I'm just saying that the way the main book is written is different than how a lot of people play it. Karnnath comes right out and says that you are pretty safe from anything more serious than being hassled for your paperwork. The book can support both...

"The Simbul was always a sorcerer. You just didn't notice." Not a big change, I admit.. but one that leaps to mind.

Unfortunately a lot of the campaign setting doesn't touch on this. I've had this argument before and I have to admit, despite how easily you could focus on this aspect without changing the setting, the actual ECS book describes the Five Nations as being largely pretty secure. Your Eberron may...

Extrapolating from SWSE (a dangerous past time! I know...) rage may only last a round unless an action point is spent to push it to the whole encounter. At least, that is how Dark Rage worked out last night.

Except for the valuable per day abilities that will still need managing and any charged items that they may or may not have. I'm playing a pretty solid SWSE game right now and while I know that 4e isn't going to be as much like that as people think, there is still plenty of tactics and...

Seconded. Go to someplace dangerous. Overcome the dangerous things there. Come back with fortune and glory. That is the core of D&D to me.

I'll pay no more than 20 bucks for the thing, and that provided that there are articles about development and essays as to why things are they way they are and stuff like that.

As to the original question... hell yes. I agree with you completely sir.

Just that it looks more like they are clarifying what they are doing and why. "For the Forgotten Realms, the decision has been made. It wasn't made in a vacuum, it wasn't made without any input from outside these walls, and it wasn't made lightly." Looks like they've done what they are going...

I don't think it is a bad picture, but I really really think that PH1 cover could stand a different piece.

I actually really like this one.

The more I think about it, the more I think I really want this to be the case. The necromancer should be full of all sorts of black magic, just like the medival legends described.

This is true, but it is even more than that. It is cute and cute is a very big deal in japan. Reference the wikipedia on "kawaii." That is where I've noticed most disconnect. A lot of things in Japan seem more childish and silly than they really are because of it. Like the FMA thing. I...

Matches up with my memory and wikipedia pretty closely for eight sentences.

Yes, tradition can be frustrating. I'm personally very glad we don't have that kind of tradition!

So does that mean that now 4e has all the things you found wonderous?
