    Battlegrounds: RPG Edition (virtual tabletop software)

    This looks like a very interesting product---but I have grown pretty skeptical of digital aides (after a very disappointing run with CMP). So before I download/purchase it---I have a few questions: Has it been reviewed yet by a reliable source? If so---who? (link?) My gaming group has a wealth...

    Sooo how is everyone liking the new ENWorld?

    Friday's front page was as just about the best I have seen in the past several months. Snazzy pic of Draconomicon, good info on links, nice all around. If this is going to be the new level----then I am plenty happy with it.

    Anyone else notice that if you play a 'monster race' in 4e...

    Just seems like 4e is planting the 'You are a good guy, so play a good guy' angle harder than anything in 3/3.5. Many of the PrC and race descriptions in 3/3.5 relished being evil (or at least naughty:devil:)---and almost none of the base races/classes had any 'Dudley Do-right' language.

    Anyone else notice that if you play a 'monster race' in 4e...

    Neither myself nor my DM have any problems playing evil PC's. I am just commenting on what appears to be WoTC's assumptions regarding the 'Nobility' of PC's.

    Anyone else notice that if you play a 'monster race' in 4e...

    A lot of the 'roleplaying info' text assumes that you will play your character as a 'noble and good rebel'----opposed to the racial type? For instance---all the examples of playing a Drow (from the FR Player's Handbook) indicate that the PC opposes the Drow races evil tendencies. But what if you...

    Sooo how is everyone liking the new ENWorld?

    Oooo!!! They put back the dates!!! Psyche!!! Slowly getting back to a snazzy front page!!! (I don't think I am being sarcastic---but am old and jaded so I might be :devil:)

    Sooo how is everyone liking the new ENWorld?

    OK, now we are beginning to cook a bit---definitely enjoying the added info with the links on the current front page (9/23/08)

    Pretty up the front page!

    Forked from: Sooo how is everyone liking the new ENWorld? As it stands---I would prefer going back to the old (6 months ago) version of the front page rather than the current form. I was really starting to like the Icon based front page---then---'WhsshhhTT!!!'. Gone. Why?

    Sooo how is everyone liking the new ENWorld?

    Starting to really get turned off by the front page... There just simply isn't enough context info. There aren't any date references, no clear indications which website/companies the links are tied to. It may be quicker, but it is not in the least attractive. A website should be FUN, and the...

    Hoping the old (new) front page comes back!

    Of course not!!! But does that mean there are no plans to go back to gee-whiz pretty icons?

    Hoping the old (new) front page comes back!

    The current front page is aesthetically unappealing (ie ugly!)---even if it does provide a lot of link-based info. Also---is it just me or is the front page pretty darn slow?

    PCGen Releases 2 New Mongoose Data Sets!

    This rocks!!! Hope PCGen keeps cranking out good 3rd party datasets---Pathfinder for example...

    When are you guys going back to the old (new) front page?

    Any clues? I wound up really liking the icon based interface. The current temp front page may be delightfully simple---but it doesn't provide good info on the provided links. I like to know a little bit about where I am going before I follow a link.

    Still holding out for a new Baldur's Gate game...

    I know that there is virtually no chance of it, but I would love to see a new BG game. BG is what got me back into D+D after a 15 year hiatus. It's story-telling, NPC interactions, group formulations, maps, combat, background music...EVERYTHING rocked! Although the 'Sword Coast' expansion from...

    When will WOTC clarify the Stealth rules?

    One would have hoped that all these designers, developers, and editors would have gotten it right the first time (especially with such an important game mechanic, at the dawn of a new edition), rather than handing us a vague and possibly broken component.

    Sooo how is everyone liking the new ENWorld?

    I have been using Firefox for the last 18 months. It is GREAT! I haven't even peeked at Explorer in awhile---so it might be making a comeback---but I prefer to stay away from MS when I can. Firefox 3.0 is very, very nice.

    Sooo how is everyone liking the new ENWorld?

    Hmm... I may have spoken too soon. The elimination of the myriad scroll bars is a vast improvement. Now I can easily go through the whole page. Also now there is more helpful text along with the icons. Nice Job!

    Sooo how is everyone liking the new ENWorld?

    bottomline (for me) Frontpage: I like the look of the icons, but I miss the wealth of info/links on the front page. I don't really have time to drill down into each of the article/icons. I would prefer being able to read through the info and then select what to follow-up on. Forums: I do think...

    Sooo how is everyone liking the new ENWorld?

    Gotta be honest, the new front-page interface is going to take a little while to get used to. It seems more image based (as opposed to text based). Still, it does look awful Purrrty and I am sure I will adjust to it soon. Are there some distinct improvements (in terms of ease of use) that have...
