    Huge printing error in my Eberron!

    Agh, this really sucks. I didn't hear about it being a problem with any of the people who got it early (both overseas and in the US). I hope this doesn't turn people off of what I think is an excellent setting. I hope WotC publicly addresses this, so people who get the book screwed-up know they...

    Tell me, have you seen the Eberron CSB?

    Definitely. In my own campaign, I plan to intentionally leave the issue ambiguous. In settings where the gods' power is unquetionable, I approach clerics as divine diplomats and interpreters, who acknowledge gods as a source of power and do what they can to win the gods' favor. There can be...

    Tell me, have you seen the Eberron CSB?

    Sure! Here's a quote from Eberron designer Keith Baker: For more of Keith's thoughts on warforged, click here.

    Tell me, have you seen the Eberron CSB?

    Eberron definitely won't appeal to everyone; it's more Rennaisance than Middle Ages, it features very widespread (low-level) magic, and some people just can't stand to see nomadic halflings or not-necessarily-evil orcs. Some people will find the level of detail overwhelming. Others will just...

    I can't wait for it! I'm digging the planar touchstone concept.

    Is eberron balanced?(for those who have read the book)

    I'm going to withhold judgment on balance until I actually play the game, but nothing I've seen concerns me. I think Wizards of the Coast has put more time into designing playtesting this product than practically anything they've released in the past couple of years. For folks interested in...

    Eberron = power creep or just pushing the envelope?

    Over the past few months, I've seen a lot of debate on the relative merits and drawbacks of the warforged. I don't think the fact that they can spend a feat to gain a suit of armor is game-breaking. In most campaigns I've played in, feats are more precious than armor. Dont get me wrong...

    Anyone in US have Eberron yet?

    The Eberron Campaign Setting is definitely starting to appear in stores nationwide. Large chains like B. Dalton and Hastings seem to be getting it first, though orders from Amazon and Walmart are also shipping. I haven't heard of someone picking it up from a Barnes & Noble or Borders, but I...

    My first attempt at a map with Dundjinni: Post yours!

    You know what would be cool? An open-source Dundjinni group that created high-quality map art components to share with one another. I'd contribute to such a group. Any rumblings of such a thing on the Dundjinni boards?

    [Irk rather than Rant]: "Cinematic"

    While I think the term "cinematic" is overdone, it's also descriptive. It means you're going to try to keep things moving, you're going to elide time between "scenes," you're going to come up with ways to keep things visually interesting, you'll use some cinematic cliches like chase scenes, et...

    Online DnD/PnP game running Program?

    Does anyone recommend one of these programs over others? I'm very impressed by Klooge, though I haven't actually managed to get myself into a game yet.

    [ShareTheLove] Hatin' Eberron?

    I'm involved in Share The Love (or at least I hope I am... I've gotten some e-mails about it), and until an hour ago I had Eberron preordered on Amazon. But considering that the book's already out internationally, and Amazon's giving a June 23 ship date, and local stores are supposed to get it...

    Eberron - Cool or Drool?

    Based on your question, "what's different?" seems to be the most important aspect of a campaign setting for you. And, though I only speak for myself when I say this, Eberron isn't hugely different. It's still swords and sorcery fantasy, with subtle twists rather than paradigm-shifting changes...

    Eberron - Cool or Drool?

    As far as I can tell, and I've looked into it a bit, Eberron isn't defined by one big twist; it's definitely not about limiting the ruleset, and I don't even think its emphasis is on adding rules (though every WotC product has to do some of that). To speak in terms of past campaign settings...
