    Not only am I open about playing D&D, it’s because of D&D that I got my first real job.

    DM Entitlement...

    I’m a lenient DM when it comes to what’s on the Ban List. Usually it’s either for genre reasons (European knights in an ancient Egypt themed game) or for mechanical reasons (Nightsticks are right out), but sometimes it is for the dreaded “I don’t like it” reason (psionics and the “east meets...

    We need a unified optional game system or this hobby's gonna die

    I don’t know about anyone else, but I already have enough systems that I could run just about anything under. My friends and I were talking the other day that with a little work you could run Farscape under WH40KRPG or Star Wars under CoC. Granted, they might be a rough fit, but I personally...

    Irontooth deadliness

    Our DM has run that encounter twice, once with the KotS pregens and a second time with our own characters after the core books came out. We beat the encounter both times, but the first time the rogue nearly dropped. The second time seamed a lot easier, but I assume it was because we were...

    New name for "gish"? (forked from Character Concepts: Gish and Teleporter Mage)

    Honestly, I think Gish is fine, and in the brave new world of squared circles, is a great way to quickly convey the concept of a character who uses both fighting and magic.

    I’m assuming that one of those law-talkin’ guys told them it conflicted with a provision in their WotC contract.

    FR Preview-Sword Mage and Genasi

    It's good, but I wouldn't call it cheesy good. The region's benefit, in my opinion, overshadow the other regions, but not so mush that it would be the only choice you should make.

    FR Preview-Sword Mage and Genasi

    windsoul, watersoul, and stormsoul look decent, and I bet you'll see a lot of characters from the Akanul region.

    PC concepts I'd love to play...

    An awakened monkey mage. I like the idea of a master of the arcane arts being something you wouldn’t expect. Sadly, I’ve never played in a campaign where the character would be appropriate.

    [Board Games] Settlers of Catan

    I once played a game where I got both of the monopoly cards in the dev deck. Fun times were had when I was able to turn every village I had into a city within three turns.

    D&D Setting Tolerances

    Sure, This one doesn’t change the game that much anyway. sure. Depends on the system, because in some systems divine classes are the only healers. If it was anything before 4e I would say no. That would depend on the race selection. I think humans are a must, if for nothing else than to...

    Female gamers: Weal or woe?

    I had one female gamer in my spelljammer game a while back. Other than a rules issue we straightened out early (a bard with no perform) she was a great addition to the group.

    That's it; I am done buying minis'!

    I stopped buying them after the Giants of Legend set. I pulled seven fiendish t-rexes out of a total of twelve boosters.

    Forked Thread: What Do Want To See in Dragon?

    New Paragon paths for existing classes, new powers (including at wills) for all the classes, new races, new magic items. Save the monsters, NPCs and templates for dungeon.

    Did the WotC boards blow up...again?

    I don’t know about anyone else, but I’m getting sick and tired of having to reset my password every time I want to log into that website. Sure, I wasn’t a member from the beginning, but I’ve had the same account for four years now, you would think that if they could keep things straight for four...

    Ecology of the Dragonborn up

    No wings, no paragon paths, no racial magic items. In my opinion, when compared to the warforged article, this article is sub par.
