My one disappointment about the article was the fact that Baphomet's stats didn't appear in it.

I don't have it, but I'm going to venture a guess and say that "dragon" would be covered by "lizard." It'd just be described as a sort of a drake or pseudodragon or something.

Probably homebrew, like the Dashing Swordsman

Mine shipped today which, given my location, means it should be here sometime next month. Yay.

The first thing that came to mind when I read the title was "I am the bone of my sword. Steel is my body and fire is my soul. I have created over a thousand blades..." You either know the rest or you don't. But anyway, awesome table. First roll, for a +1 sword: Light Slayer, forged by giants...

Reminds me of the vanishing tome during the 4e previews.

Been pretty...er...standard throughout history, though only the Japanese came up with the brilliant idea of sticking the pole down a warrior's shirt so he had both hands free and it was more mobile. ..how long until some munchkin figures that his buddy counts as a surface?

In my limited experience, no. By the time the wizard can get Greater Invisibility, the rogue can do it too, and better. Yes, that's right: The rogue can actually go invisible, not just hide. Some exploits prevent you from moving, while the higher ones allow you to move and attack as well...

whether or not this is an error, I do believe it is a mistake. One of the bonuses of 4th is the well-defined combat roles make encounter building easy. You can raise or lower the level and swap out monsters and the encounter should run comprably, if not the same. Difficulty is in the encounter...

A quick rundown of my favorite goofy looking minis: Rock star! Kaaaaaaa....meeeeee....haaaaaa.... HUG ME!

I forsee a minor meme coming out of this. Don't think about Gibbeth.

Random musing I had. If we get the expected four Primal classes in the upcoming PHBII, then that means all covered power sources will have four core classes. So with the PHBIII and IV, it would be a good time to start all over. What's left? Shadow, Ki, Psionics, and Elemental. When I look at...

Obviously, martial will be #1 because it makes for a nice "low magic" game that everyone gets the urge to run/play from time to time. The fact that it has four classes in three roles doesn't hurt. #2 will be arcane, because it's the only source with all four roles right now (if you count the...

I'll admit it. I'm a lazy DM. I hate to make my own adventures. The huge time investiture just doesn't seem worth it to me, and the games I run on my own have a bad tendency to fall flat. On the other hand, I am one heck of a module DM. My players love what I do with established modules and...

The designers made a comment that they wanted to make female dwarves prettier in general. In my opinion, they succeeded.

Different strokes I guess. Personally, I find the dwarven females strikingly attractive. Those broad, stong features on a soft rounded face are just what I go for. To each his own though.

The thing that's bothering me the most (so much I made another thread on it) is that if you put the two maps so far together (filling in the missing parts with the Red Hand of Doom adventure), you find that the river apparently runs two directions and doesn't go anywhere. That river is driving...

Add another book to core, focused entirely on items and equipment? Cue "4e is all about magic items! Wizards lied!" whining.

I'm curious about the no psionics comment. Granted, psionics have never been big in Faerun, but are they now explicitly banned, even before the book comes out? Odd, that.

D'oh! Thanks. That solves all my problems right there. I need to find a larger version of that map though. Edit: ...wait, no, that still has the same problem! The river goes nowhere! Or uphill! Gah!
