I just reloaded the Character Builder Launch Page, and instead of the splash page, it asked me to update Silverlight.

I've been thinking about it, but haven't actually picked up any Gamma World stuff yet.

Rethinking this particular bit, we should really look at the entire statement. From the Compendium: While not being ridden, a typical mount (such as a riding horse) rarely attacks on its own, unless it has been trained for battle, is defending itself, or feels unusually protective of its...

"Usually" isn't "always".

Hey, don't worry about it... My in-law are unmarried, but have been living together for more than twenty years. A while back, my wife and I were curious to know whether or not they were actually common law married, so we did a little research on the subject to find out.

Arkansas has never allowed common law marriage, though I think they do recognize them from other states. And it's actually more difficult to dissolve a common law marriage, since there is no such thing as a common law divorce... You have to petition your state government (through the courts)...

Yeah... You're right, I'd half forgotten about that. However, it's interesting to note that a period of cohabitation alone does not mean you are common law married... The only real difference between it and ordinary marriage is that common law marriage is not licensed by the government and...

I like it, mostly... I like having all the basic stuff on the first page. I like having the whole second page for racial and class features, and feats. I hope there's a way to re-organize the power cards (I"d much rather have them organized by At-Will/Encounter/Daily/Utility, than by level)...

Compare to the view to post ratios for other threads. Right now, you're at about 15-1... Typical for this board is between 20-1 to 30-1. Anyway, my very first thought was... ..."It's a neat idea, but it seems like more trouble than it's worth." In the past, I've done similar things with...

Yeah, that's the other thing to remember... A standard longbow has twice the range as the longest ranged spells, and any alchemical item that does appreciable damage or has a decent to-hit is going to get real expensive real fast.

Because overall there really aren't that many Heroes (capital "H") or Monsters (Capital "M") running around the world compared with mundane people and creatures. It is simply more cost effective to defend against the common threat rather than the rarities. And should a group of Monsters show...

I was just noticing the same thing recently... I was statting up a illusionist/enchanter type Wizard, who doesn't do much real damage but inflicts all sorts of nasty statuses to lock down the bad guys. Inflicting those effects before the enemies even get a chance to act can make a HUGE...

Another way to run that is to take an example from some of the defensive blur and fog type spells and effects... Namely, pick a number of squares (based on how narrow the slit is), and past that distance it effectively blocks line of sight and line of effect.

Just remember: You are a PC in a game of Dungeons and Dragons. You are, at the very least, Heroic with a capital "H". Something as trivial as throwing a glass vial unerringly through an arrow slit is all in a day's work for you. But, to think of it another way... Regardless of whether it's...

Yeah... very close. I saw similar items, but the problem is that my table is a 75' by 40' oblong. (EDIT: Although I see now that they have them in several different sizes.) I was trying to find a bulk roll of that sort of table pad that I could cut to shape. And it's too bad they don't have...

+1UP I don't always go to the bathroom specifically, but I'll call a five minute break... The smokers head out to the porch for a smoke, the others head to the kitchen for drinks or snacks. I get a few minutes to collect my thoughts and figure out what happens next. Very often, I use Rel's...

My Net-Fu is full of fail this morning. Our new house has enough extra space to set aside a corner of the basement as a dedicated "gaming room". It's not quite ready yet, but we've been slowly picking up bits and pieces here and there from thrift stores and garage sales to furnish it with...

Absolutely... Perhaps I said it poorly in the first post. The question isn't, "Can we live together and never argue about anything, ever?" That's certainly an unrealistic expectation. It's, "Can we live together and find ways to respectfully work out our differences, or at least live with...

No... Perhaps a better way to say it would be: I understand the reasons why people would want to have a prenup (I completely understand the idea of "Plan for the worst, but hope for the best"... It's one of the mottos I live by), but it boggles my mind that they even feel the necessity to have...

Quoted for truth. This is exactly why I've never entirely understood the reasoning behind prenuptual agreements... If you go into a marriage expecting it to fail, or even slightly suspecting it to fail, then you probably shouldn't be getting married in the first place. It's better to wait and...
