    Balance Meter - allowing flavorful imbalance in a balanced game

    I think they should make purposely weak options for all you folks who don't like playing balanced games, so you can suck in combat as much as you like. Then we'd all be happy! Please try to avoid trolling. When you post stuff like this to deliberately annoy folks, it just makes your moderators...

    Tiefling and half-orc should not be in the PHB

    Okay, so the claim was made that: I objected, because I believe it's provably true that most fantasy novels don't consist of "dwarves, elves, orcs, halflings, and gnomes" and their variants. Apparently, that's controversial, as with MoxieFu's response to look at: Okay, so let's see, I'll...

    You want to know how dishonest the monster is?

    Tiefling and half-orc should not be in the PHB

    Except these don't fit the requirements of "the races are human, elf, dwarf, halfling and gnome." None of them do.

    Tiefling and half-orc should not be in the PHB

    Which "most fantasy novels" are you talking about? Because I don't think the majority of fantasy novels out thre are anything like this.

    Morrus on... Races

    How about both? What about Race matters for character "B" but doesn't matter for character "A"? Just as I'd be able to build a sword-swinging simple-to-play fighter in 5e without worrying about skills, so should I be able to build a fighter where her race isn't important. And just as I could...

    Aasimar and Tiefling should be Themes or templates, not races

    I blame the cartoon with the gnome ("I'm a monster!") for giving the tiefling player character an accent that sounded like a Draenei.

    Aasimar and Tiefling should be Themes or templates, not races

    LOL, because you see healing surges, marks, feat-based multiclassing, and other 4e-isms all the time in MMOs. Please, if you must edition-war, can't you be a little more original in your ignorant bleating? "4E IZ JUST WOW LOL" is so tired.

    Tiefling and half-orc should not be in the PHB

    New rule: Only races I personally like should be allowed into the PHB, everything else is BANNED. I think that's pretty reasonable. Don't you?

    Confirming crits, good idea, bad idea, or worst idea ever

    Hey, y'know? An opposed defense roll is effectively a "confirm to crit" roll as well, if implemented correctly.

    AD&D 1E My clever theory: why 1e AD&D is being reprinted

    Why fort/reflex/will? Because nobody wants to calculate all that stuff on the fly each time.

    "Power Sources" and Classes

    I think "power sources," like "roles" and other 4e-isms, have been there all along but just were named for the first time in 4e. And since it's in 4e it's wrongbadawful to certain people, even though the distinction has been in D&D from the start.

    D&D 5E (2014) How would you like 5e to handle combat roles.

    Huh? I don't really know what you mean by the parenthetical about the gate guard.

    Interest Dropping Off With Encounters?

    We just finished Beyond the Crystal Cave and we ended with 3 full tables (one with about 8 players, one with 6, and one with 7). I think it's too early to know if there's a drop-off based on 5e announcement; I suspect there won't be a for a while. However, what I do expect to see is a drop in...

    Confirming crits, good idea, bad idea, or worst idea ever

    Note that in 4e, this wasn't a problem: If a level 1 kobold can only hit the level 10 fighter with a 20, then when he hits, that attack isn't a crit.

    What's in a (Spell) Name? - Poll

    A lot of people have disliked the "implied setting" concept of 4e, with "Bael Turath" and "Arkhosia" and other things floating around in the core fluff and crunch. I'm thinking that the "named spells" are that kind of implied setting detail too -- easily overlooked if you want to do it, but...
