You can find the origin of the "economy of actions" thoughtline here.

I agreed with everything you said except this, but mainly because I want to find out how you are defining "limited resource," b/c if you can only use Standard, Move, and Minor Actions 1/round and an Immediate Action 1/round, then aren't they all "limited resources?" Opportunity Actions on the...

So I've been wondering about the economy of actions works out in 4e since picking up the first three "core books." So far it seems each class has a relatively balanced set of actions each round (Standard, Move, and Minor) with the ability to gain an additional action via an action point. This...

Thanks... I think ;) Anyway, I really wanted a class that emphasized quanity of attacks over quality, with short quick releases rather than long well-aimed ones (yes, one of the paragon paths is all about accuracy, but that's why its a paragon path and not a class feature). Not a bad idea...

Thanks for the comments... this is what I thought and right now the base class will need a bit of renovation to get a naturally flowing series of powers from heroic to paragon to epic levels. I've sent an NDA over to you ;) Yeah this is one area I'm still balancing. I have an effective...

I just got word that the World of Nevermore pdf is now up over at YourGamesNow.com for only $15.00! It will hit other electronic storefronts later this month. If you have any questions, comments, etc. on the World of Nevermore book, then feel free to post them here and I'll get back to you ASAP.

Well I just posted the 1st through 30th level preview character of the Auxiliary class. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I did designing it ;) Now that all 30 levels are complete (along with feats, magical weapons, etc.)I'm going to take a couple days off and set the class aside so I can come...

Although not specifically "Modern," the Nevermore campaign setting definately has its "Horror" elements and is designed to be used with any setting. The default in the books is fantasy, but I'm currently working on a "Modern" young adult novel that will eventually lead into Nevermore and I'm...

Yeah, once we have some alchemy rules to work with I'll probably do a short "add-on" pack for an alchemy-based Auxiliary ;)

I do believe in stretches... though for martial you can only stretch so far ;) I'm not certain a martial melee controller is possible (or at least easily done). Sure you could do it mechanically, but trying to make the class feel martial would be a very tall order. Although a Large or larger...

Still on target for finishing the epic powers by the weekend and then I'll release the next preview character with powers through 30th level. It should be fun to see how everything works out at the epic levels, but so far so good on the design frontier ;) PS: After discussing things off-forum...

Wow... I haven't heard someone mention that project in a long long time ;) Feel free to email me at: joseph.dm.miller@gmail.com (we can chat about the old and the new).

Actually trademarking is not the problem... copyright is. The GSL allows you to use their copyrighted D&D 4e References which appear in the SRD. Anything not in the SRD falls under normal copyright laws, which means you can't copy its specific expression. Although Succubus is a common usage...

Good to hear! Tell Joe and Suzi I said hello! ;) I'm glad the taste you got of Nevermore at GenCon a couple years ago has stuck with you and definately let me know how you use it b/c I really am interested in how it is used at home ;)

Just to let you all know I'm hoping to finish up the epic powers this week. After that I'll start fiddling with the overall feel of the class and rearranging powers to different levels so there are constant themes throughout the levels. I hope you all enjoy the preview character and will post...

Actually the GSL works quite similarly to the d20 SRD, except it does not actually provide you with the full texts you can use (so no easy copy-pasting from SRD to products) and instead tells you what 4e References you can use and how you can use them (this is the biggest difference b/w the two...

Although a melee controller is much more difficult to pull off I don't think it is possible, however I do have a few suggestions: Use the hp/level and surges of the wizard. One of the important aspects of a controller type is their "glass jaw" style... they trade multi-target attacks for...

Does anyone know how the Student of the Faith feat's Divine Challenge works? I know WotC clarified that the Ranger's Hunter's Quary is 1/encounter "until the end of your next turn." But my question is does Divine Challenge work the same way "until the end of your next turn" or does it last for...

I just posted the 4th preview character for the newly named Auxiliary class with levels 1-20 and the Master Marksman paragon path. Feel free to use this preview character in your home games... all I ask is for some feedback on the concept. Thanks ;)

Thanks for taking a gander... I hope you'll enjoy it enough to pick it off the store shelves and put it on your own ;)
