Could you slot in me and my wife (Fraisala) as well?

Sounds like 4e is a return to 1e/2e! Where the Monsters had different stats than the PCs/NPCs. Maybe they'll just give us INT for each Monster but not Str, Dex, etc? Ironically, one of the first things I wanted from 4e was more of a unification of class, race, and monster HD... taking away the...

I probably should not have strayed into my less severe issues with the lack of variety recently in Dungeon due to 1/3 of the adventures being adventure path and having the editors and same people writing adventures rather than having ones from the slush pile. And I do think the adventures in the...

The price of Dungeon to a subscriber is $3.33 a month. So $6.66 for a magazine is better than $10 for online content. It'd be a better value in that sense ($80/year rather than $120/year), but yeah, I'd much prefer the old price point of $40 a year. And this isn't even taking into account the...

I want Dungeon. I don't care about Dragon. I don't care about some virtual tabletop or web-enhancements that I can get free now anyway. I want 900+ pages per year of ADVENTURES. With the DI, that (assuming they keep it at the same level of content) will cost $120. With the magazine format, it...

Strongly oppose. I don't like getting rid of skill points... it takes a lot of the granularity and customization away from skills for those who want it. And if you don't want it, then just take max ranks, no problem. I don't understand systems that try to "simplify" d20 skills, since in core...

I voted for 5 hours... 4 hours is very short even for a short adventure, and you have to handle getting people set up and playing, and then there is the possibility that someone might be late. If we are only going to have 2 sessions anyway, might as well get 5 hours out of each session. Btw, my...

Firefox may have corrected "villain", but it didn't take care of "verity" ;) I'm assuming you want to see more different kinds of adventures rather than more truth in them.

Wouldn't this make the spear strictly better than the longsword and the battle-axe though? Same damage, same crit range, but the ability to be thrown 20 feet... who would bother with a longsword anymore? Take away the good crit range, and it'd probably be ok, but you essentially just got a...

Oh, I know that the caster level doesn't give extra spells. When I said a Wiz1/Clr1 gets more spells, I meant in comparison to a Wiz2 or Clr2. From the second level of either of those classes, a single-classed character just gets one extra first level spell. If they instead multiclass, they get...

Thanks! I'm thinking of going with the two systems (arcane and divine) and then requiring a feat if you want to combine them into one. Has anyone tried the UA stacking system out much in actual play? Does it hold up? Does Mystic Theurge have to be altered any? I've heard Mystic Theurge is...

Is there any reason, other than flavor, for caster levels from different classes not to stack? One could worry about a wizard dipping into cleric to get healing spells and not giving up any caster level, but she would already be giving up higher spell level wizard spells for lower level cleric...

Minor correction: Ape joy.

10. What I was expecting was a fun adventure film with heart. What I got was perhaps the most powerful movie-going experience of my life. Completely devastating. This is the saddest and darkest movie I have ever seen. This is no monster movie. It is about man and animal. Haunting.

And since it's for children, we should depict war was a nice clean thing to teach them that war is good? This is a problem for a movie that a book doesn't need to deal with. With a movie, when you don't show something, it's obvious and weird. When you don't mention a detail in a book, it's ok...

I gave it a 3. It sucked. The story, the characterization (which ended with the appearance of the Witch), the effects, they all sucked. Wiping the blood off his sword but not showing it? Having a big battle with no blood or anything? This was silly as a PG film. And with all the comparissons to...

Isn't that a little weird, though? To be able to do something like deflect an arrow without making a check? A Reflex Save seems to make sense. The feat seemed powerful enough to me not to need buffing... weird. And at the very least, they coulda just lowered the DC.

In 3.0, Deflect Arrows required a Reflex Save to use. There's nothing about any kind of check to use it in 3.5... is it just automatic? Couldn't find anything on this in the FAQ or the Errata, so I guess they buffed the feat in 3.5?

This does indeed rock. I made an mp3 from it: http://s63.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=0HGRN7W1SLY3J12Z8TUQ5OZA2Q Btw, it was nice meeting you at the midnight showing of Goblet of Fire. (Weirdly, I was making an mp3 before I noticed it was you that asked... small enworld)

Hard to believe no one has brought the Electrum into 3rd edition yet... one of my favorites.
