The super quick fight does exist at my table in RCD&D. If there's a "speed bump" encounter where the goal is some level of attrition and to provide a little progress, we don't use minis and it's pretty easy for people to figure out what they want to do. We use group initiative, declare actions...

Games aren't cinematic unless they have an opening scroll like Star Wars! And cut scenes to the villains! And you need to charge the players $15 to get in and rip them off on snacks.

One thing I can think to add is look at screen resolution. I have had both an iPad 1 and now an iPad 4, and the retina screen makes viewing PDFs on the device much, much better. Pixels per inch will be more important if you're trying to view PDFs (formatted for 8.5x11, ie a 13" diagonal) on a...

That's something I can DEFINITELY agree with! As for races people don't like, Dragonborn don't bug me as much as gnomes. I mean, seriously, why are they there? What's the point? At least tinker gnomes were fun! But gnomes are sort of dwarfy craftsmen, sort of elvish magical, halfling-scale...

Well, it's been 9 months since the playtest started. Nobody really knows how much longer it will go. If it hasn't been fun to participate in the playtest so far, why should someone keep slogging through in the hopes that it will change at some point? I know Obryn and he's a pretty busy guy...

Fwiw I am currently playing in a 2e game, was recently running a PF game and have an RC one-shot lined up when the new baby takes less time. And there is a big overlap between the groups.

I can't answer for Stormonu, but I can answer for myself. I happen to have all the previous editions of D&D. But honestly, I hardly use most of them, because while I'm ok with most of them, I'm not equally fond of all of them. When I'm DMing I run RCD&D, and I'm playing in a 2e game. I don't...

I haven't been that interested in D&D Next, and right now I have no plans to buy it or really follow it. It's not relevant to my gaming. I don't need new mechanics, so I'm more interested in buying new story ideas, campaign settings, or gaming accessories than another rehash of rules.

The list reads a lot like "Here's a trope in fantasy, go arbitrarily reverse it!" I'd be more interested in article that was less a laundry list and more an exploration of a few of these ideas to see how it might change things for the setting. (Disclaimer: I'm generally not a fan of "top X...

My wife an I are doing our yearly finances right now and I went through and categorized the last year of transactions from our bank account and credit cards. It is definitely interesting to look back and see where the money is going. (Esp since we moved last year and had a lot of one-time costs.)

The controller is drawing a constant amount of power to monitor the Xbox button to know when it should go active. That shouldn't require too much power but it will add up over time. If the controller had a hard on/off switch that would stop the drain.

I still have my copy from new, and two other copies, and would buy another 3-5 if it gets reprinted. I new enough for a full group!

Ooh, thanks I hadn't noticed that!

This isn't a high priority, but I'd like to request that the Tapatalk support be added to the new installation once you finish rebuilding everything else. I understand you've got a ton of work to rebuild everything, but figured it wouldn't hurt to let you know that I'd love to see it back.

I also wonder, because I much prefer a light background to a black background.

If they reprinted it, I'd probably buy three more copies so I could have enough for an average game. RCD&D is the only game I'm interested in DMing right now. I ran a fairly successful 2yr game with it, and I've got another concept or two lined up with players as soon as I have free time. But...

I'm currently playing in a 2e Undermountain campaign, and I live-map the dungeon in Adobe Illustrator as we go through it. I have symbols and graphic styles set up so that I can do this about as quickly as I could on paper, but it's much easier to correct it when I discover something wrong. It...

I've used the UserCSS extension to do this, until/unless we get a switch. div#tb_wcont_wtb { display: none !important; }

I'll agree, trying to make it an AD&D 2e setting really ruined it. The big problem was that it was put in the hands of people who didn't really understand the setting and the products included gimmicks that really weren't that good. For instance, the CDs. There were a lot of continuity errors...

That's what gets me! I want to go up to those bandits hanging out at the bridge and say "Look, peon, I'm head of the Companions, Listener for the Dark Brotherhood, Guildmaster of the Thieves Guild, Archmage of the College of Winterhold, and chosen champion of basically every Daedric Prince out...
