Please, you guys are too easy on your players. I have them bet on how much damage they will take. This has sometimes lead to a few desperate actions to win a bet. (Hmm, I had not considered the possibility of a fighter grappling a giant porcupine.) ;)

Of course, there were also the horrors of the grappling/pummeling/wrestling rules that caused PLAYERS to avoid using those attacks, the complexity of first edition psionic combat (anyone recall the psionic attack versus an undefended psionic character?) and racial level limits.

Well, we haave to consider the range of possibilities. In 2nd Edition, in the Forgotten Realm Netheril Supplement spells above 9th level could do many things, such as create an effect that would encompass a city, or a geographic region to alter climate. (The highest level spell was 13th level...

Cake Mage, find the James Wyatt Interview from either the link on the front page or the first post. Wyatt said that druids will be as effective healers as clerics.

Moderators, maybe it would be a good idea to pin this to the top of the forum for a while. This way, people could use this thread as a resource. Probably each class can fill a number of roles. So, a player with a wizard character may be the controller on the battle field and the leader --...

There are two threads in General Discussion with the title: 4E - Anyone else think 4th Ed is to combat WoW? One is at http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?t=204557 and the other is at http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?t=204556 . Maybe merge the topics?

A new forum would be a good idea, I think. Also, it should have a stickied thread with a link to whatever permanent 4E section is set up. This way, people can quickly refer to what is known or reported about the new rule set. By the way, I think the discussion on 4E has been going well -- and...

I found him troubling as well, and I could smell flaming troll. We should expect to see more such things, but so far, I have found most of the 4E discussion civil, passionate, and insightful.

Things grinded to a REAL HALT with much groaning if someone cast a Mordenkainen's disruption, and everyone spent a long time rolling saving throws on magic items. Perhaps the improved character abilities at each level reflect different insights that the character has gained about himself or...

Well, they would qualify as fairly exotic. Hmm, maybe a party of the Iconic Exotics with the Flumph Paladin and the Myconid Bard might work. To be somewhat more serious, one question is whether any of the new races have flight as an ability and how that might be handled. Also, I think that...

I am glad to see that we will have some support for 4th Edition among other companies. There have been many great products released under 3.0 and 3.5, and I expect that this will be the case for 4th Edition. I suspect that we will see adventures first, although I wonder if we will see any...

I think per encounter can work. One of the problems with past and even the current edition of the game is the character who uses a limited resource (spells or psionic points) for example, and cannot recover them. The extreme example of this was a 1st level wizard in 1st Edition who cast a...

Original post: in Thread Let me sum up 4e anger for you. Reason: It looks like we have an attempt at trolling here. The politics rule has been broken, as have civility. As annoyed as people might be at WotC over 4th Edition, bringing in Nazi Germany is not a good idea. Assigned...

asdff, I see that you are new here. Take some time to readthe rules here. Political and religious discussion is not allowed.

So far, I am intrigued by what I have read. First, there seems to be a focus on ease of play, and having distinctive characters. As I have been playing Dungeons and Dragons in one incarnation or another since 1980, I think that having each level matter to the character is a good incentive for...

Thanks to everyone who made Dragon Magazine so great over the years. You and your work will be remembered fondly.

Thanks to Buzz, Curt and everyone at Games Plus for organizing and hosting the Gameday. Mark, it was great to game with you again. Hinterwelt, I thoroughly enjoyed the game, and the unintended and humorous consequences of some dice rules. I am looking forward to the next Gameday!

I plan to make it to LePeep as well.
