If WOTC admits that they took WOW as an inspiration, then why do we still have 4e fanboys getting agitated when someone compares 4e to WOW? Is being associated to WOW such a bad thing? To me WOTC is correct in taking influence due to the current generation. ~ Please avoid using language aimed...

So, mega dungeons can't be played using 4e? I was thinking of running one, but I am expecting that players will be combat fatigue very fast. I was also planning to run Keep on Shadowfell and pruning the encounters. Only having combat that furthers the storyline, not for the sake of getting xp...

I would like to echo on the "too many combats" statement. Though I know why it is necessary. I am interested in an intrigue adventure where there are more skill challenges than combats. Of course this may not cater to all, but at this point the combat-inclined fans are getting lot of love...

Well, if its out of print then D&D has no flagship corebooks besides the intro Essentials+ Rules Compendium. It's ok for a newbie, but for an experienced guy? They would prefer a PHB I think. I am curious to know how basic the new builds are. Of course it should be easier than the ones we got...

Do you give them bonus to attack instead? Also the HAE feat has been nerfed, so you might want to allow it now. To add to the topic, I only have PHB1/2, but I do allow players to take from power books if they have the book. I was thinking of allowing Dragon as well (for the first time), any...

Can you tell how you went about without minis? How did you deal with positioning, especially area effects.

Anyone used the group storytelling? I am abit uncomfortable with having my players tell me that a tower is standing over a hill and all. I did implement something similar for Play by Post using Google Wave though, since it's all narrative driven, but not sure if I can open up to that method on...

OK, finally got it in the mail. Man it's amazing!!! No regrets buying it. I always wanted to stick to heroic tier campaign, but the paragon chapter makes me interested. It's a really good guide.

I can understand from a crunch point of view that having it online is better in terms of rules update, but for fluff and adventures, I still like them printed. Also, if D&D books cease to be, their presence especially in gameshops or online shops will be less. Promoting D&D as mainly a software...

"My fellow Shardminds, we are at war. The tainted Wildens with their Minotaur allies have breached out defenses and so I call to all the young Shardlings out there to take arms, while we wait for reinforcements from the Githzerai army to arrive," rallied the Battlemind commander.

Hmm, still can't beat PHB2. They were right when they said PHB2 was the most significant expansion. Wonder will they say the same thing in PHB3 intro?

Made me wonder, will the Rules Compendium be outdated eventually with the constant rules update? Have the rules update in PHB1 stabilized or still ongoing?

You can always level up all the kobolds and goblinoids to paragon/epic tier. It's easy to do in 4e.

I played the demo and was very impressed with the dice and cards. Not sure if eventually I'll get tired of them and just want the traditional way.

I don't see any reason for Paizo to be hated. People may hate the rpg that they produce, but thats just a tool for their main products, the adventure paths and setting books.

Ok, so I went ahead and ordered it. Should arrive in a few days. I might use Sigil for paragon afterall to maximize its use. Hehe.

So basically it's a really good advice book?

Is the book useful at the table? I like how the books I have so far sees heavy table use.

Hey guys, I've been DMing for almost 10 years now and I have the the core + PHB2/MM2. Was wondering how useful is the DMG2. I don't really care about Sigil or the advices but was wondering from a crunch viewpoint. Thanks.

Wonder what are the 3.5e influences. I know C&C is 1st Ed + Siege Engine, so this DCC RPG is 1st Ed + ??? Perhaps the ascending AC thats worthy to be adapted.
