    Help me build an auto-sleep wizard

    Just be careful if you use the trick regularly and have a persistent enemy. I was being run thru Dragon Mountain once. This was 2E and I rolled a Wild Mage. My DM was rolling magic items and rolled a Wand of Wonder. He didn't want to give it to me tho, so he rolled again. He rolled another...

    The Real Housewives/husbands of your RPG Group

    My wife likes to lord over me the fact that she rolls dice WAY better. Like she could roll 3d6 for stats w/no rerolls and have nothing lower than 13 and probably have a couple of 18s in there. We both made characters last night for a 4E game we might be joining in a couple of weeks. That game...

    VT/CB/AT integration coming soon to beta testers

    everyAir lets you do things like play games on your computer while sitting somewhere else on your iPad. The example I saw was WoW. I don't see why the same couldn't be done here. 15 Minutes of Fame: Players bring touchscreen WoW to the iPad

    Question Re:Half Elf At-Wills as Encounter

    Thanks guys. Sacred Flame is probably a more accurate fit, but I kinda like the idea of that ranged shot heh.

    Question Re:Half Elf At-Wills as Encounter

    So the Half Elf has a racial ability to snag an at-will from another class and use it as an encounter power. Let's say I chose Eldritch Blast from the Warlock. There is a special note that says anytime you are allowed to make a basic ranged attack you can substitute this power. Does that...

    Pathfinder 1E Question for the Paizo folks regarding D&D's state of today

    Here in Louisville KY we have a B&N and a Borders and of the 2, B&N has no gaming products at all and Borders has maybe a couple of rows. A couple of White Wolf books, maybe something like the Shadowrun core, a Pathfinder or 2, and maybe a couple of other things. We have 1 dedicated game...

    WotC: Re-issue older editions.

    Count me in the crowd who thinks it would be a useless operation on WotC's part and potentially damaging to 4E. Not that I think there will be thousands of people who leave 4E b/c 2E is now available easily (altho it's easy to find at any used bookstore here heh), but simply for the confusion...

    How to Select an RPG system (a chart)

    The supers could have a section asking if they like the Storyteller system so there can be a link to Aberrant :)

    D&D 4E [4E Players, mainly] Ever thought of defecting to Pathfinder?

    I moved on from 2E to stuff like Vampire and Mage and CoC during late high school and college, coming back to the fold after some Rolemaster fun for a couple of years with the advent of 3E. It's 22 years on now and I still love D&D. 4E feels much better as a game to me than 3.x ever did and it...

    D&D 5E (2014) Neverwinter is the next setting! (Did we know this?)

    How about instead of an area book for the FR they give us something from a prior edition or god forbid, some new IP

    Scott Thorne, a retailer, comments on recent events

    EDIT: I didn't read the whole thread and Danny covered the much longer history of New Coke already. It's a very interesting story tho and a great example of a vocal minority upending the cart

    Why I don't like alignment in fantasy RPGs

    One of my friends always loved the Plethora of Paladins article from back in the late 1E days and he would always try and bring out of of the Paladin variants. I personally preferred the way Alignment was handled in Arcana Evolved. There are none. No Paladins either, but Champions fit a...

    New "Red Box" Starter Set hands-on preview

    This was my absolute first thought when I saw the mention of the solo adventure download.

    D&D 4E Dark sun 4e

    I was watching Fringe the other night and Peter Weller had a guest spot as someone who was able to travel thru time. When he appeared, the timeshift absorbed power and life out of nearby things...people in a subway train, grass in a field. When I saw the grass in a field get turned brown and...

    Whatever happened to Necromancer Games?

    Clark followed in the fine tradition of Gygax and spent all his money on hookers and blow :) *yes just teasing*

    D&D 4E Is there any D&D 4th computer game?

    BGII Throne of Bhaal June 2001 Icewind Dale II August 2002 Neverwinter Nights 2 October 2006 Yeah ToEE was buggy as sin. NN2 came out over 3 years ago. The other 2 games came out over 7 years ago. The market is a different place now than it once was. Just b/c it sold well in the past...

    So what's the most powerful combo in Rifts?

    1 MD was equal to 100SDC, so a typical MDC blaster will kill any normal human. The only folks who got changed into MD creatures when coming to RIFTS earth were mostly super heroes. Supernatural things tended to end up MD and many super hero powers converted the SDC directly into MDC. The...

    DDXP 2010 News and Updates

    I don't know if that's true or not. I mean, the set of books they released for Eberron are considered stand alone (ie making no more for the settings) by people. I could see this as being like any of the different settings books for 3E. You need the core rules to play, this gives you all the...

    What do you want the next "genre setting" to be?

    Spelljammer would be neat to see and for a smaller genre book like this they wouldn't be risking much. I would have been fine with Urban Arcana except I really disliked d20 Modern. A Shadowrunish sort of game would be neat tho. Real estate. Ask Donald Trump :)
