OK, I got confused since it was listed on this month's Patch Notes.

How does one access the new summary feature?

I was pretty sure that when they announced the CB update delay, they were going to also delay this article since it makes sense to release them together. I would bet its coming out tomorrow.

While the exact ratio of crunch vs. fluff has varied over time, there's always been a lot of fluff in the magazines, and we're currently in what a lot of people would consider a fluff ascendant phase.

The new table of contents for Dragon 397 is up here, and it contains some interesting stuff: *Class Compendium: Warlord - Cancelled materials make their return via DDI *Variable Ability Scores for the remaining races *My article on the Familiars of Athas! ;)

I loved reading that adventure but never got a chance to play it. Its good to know it played well. Another, more recent Dungeon adventure (still 3.5 though) involving a prison break (and infiltration) is "Chains of Blackmaw" by Nicholas Logue. Its in issue 135.

I'd think that Dex would be the fixed stat in any case since revenants are so closely linked with assassins.

I'm not sure if I want an entire PoL campaign world, but whayt I would love to see is more adventure locales like Hammerfast and Vor Rukoth. I used the Hammerfast book extensively in my current campaign; it was very useful stuff. However, I can see how those books wouldn't be all that...

I was going more for urban fantasy than Urban Arcana in particular, but they're ain't anything wrong with gnoll pimps!

I voted for Greyhawk and Mystara, but I also like non-traditional (i.e. non-Western) fantasy, so Al-Qadim, Kara-Tur, and Urban Arcana made my list. I would also like to see a new setting.

Phoenixes and Thunderbirds are in MMI, though I guess they could stand to be updated to how monsters are currently designed. Reapers, or something similar to them, are in Open Grave.

I'm most interested in this development. How does it effect readability and playability in your opinion?

I got the impression that its being postioned more as an anti-hero type class.

In our first 4e campaign, we reached 17th level. We could have reached epic tier, but our DM was having a baby and could no longer devote the time to it anymore. Instead, I took over as DM for a new campaign and they've got to 4th level before we went on a holiday-inspired hiatus. We're...

The recent "Channel Divinity: Vecna" article in Dragon 395 revealed the 4e origin of the BoVD. It gives Vecna more credit for its creation than what you described, as it doesn't mention the source of his discoveries, but it doesn't contradict it either.

I liked the Kythons; I hope they make a reappearance.

What strikes me is that outside of Heroes of Shadow, all of the content is DM-centric and includes stuff that is not easily transmitted digitally (i.e. tiles, maps, and tokens). It just reinforces my belief that player-centric content, outside of tentpole releases like HoS (if the Neverwinter...

As far as delves go, its decent and I too liked the sidebar explaining how it can be expanded. I'm assuming that the modron article is going to take up a lot of this issues's page count, especially if they are going to cover all the base and hierarch modrons (hopefully Primus too), which is why...

People mostly freaked out about the classes since all of them deviated somewhat from the AEDU power structure that they were most familiar with.

Well, they are going to address the character sheets in upcoming releases, so I'm guessing printing will be part of that.
