    "Plot" is not a four-letter word

    I once had a DM that I think you would have liked. (I think it was either 1st or 2nd edition) He ran a very “sandbox” style game, but there was also a major plot running through the game world as well as lots of subplots that may or may not be related to the main plot. But you could go in any...

    We're the Replacement Chosen Ones

    And who's to say that the now dead character was not "Chosen" to sacrifce themselves so that the rest could continue with the rest of the prophecy. Hey not all destinies end up happily ever after. :p

    I was thinking the Gamers seeking Gamers forum would be a good start.

    Player 1 'grabs and pulls' player 2, then claims it's 'Forced movement, no AtOp'

    I'm just not sure why you posted the question here anyway. If your mind was already made up (as it seems to be), them why bother. It's your game, your rules. But if every other poster disagrees with you, cites pages and compendium entries and examples to back them up, shouldn't take a deep...

    I Want the Old Realms Back

    I agree. Back in 2e days I had a gm who liked the realms but not dnd. So he ran his game with GURPS. If he can do that then 4e should be a piece of cake. Just pick a timeline that you like and roll in the fluff.

    What if 5e is a board game?

    I think it would depend on how well it played without the hardware. If you need the hardware to play the game then it's a boardgame and not an RPG. If you can play equally well with or without then that would be interesting to say the least. If I had to buy the hardware just to get the core...

    Psionic Abuse

    Were you playing Gurps by any chance? IIRC 1st or 2nd edition Gurps psionics were very abusable. And yeah. He was a total jerk.

    Dragon mark feats

    Imagine that. Someone posting as "Siberys" is an Eberron nerd!

    Scoundrel Rogue Playtest Up

    *Sigh* You're probably right. Sounds like more errata to fix a simple name change. When did the dnd community get so picky. (Don't answer that. It was rhetorical )

    Scoundrel Rogue Playtest Up

    I haven't read the article yet, (damn you work filters!) but if the Rouge Weapon Talent and the Scoundrel Weapon Talent do the same thing I would think that the feats interact with them the same way. I could be wrong. It happens from time to time. 

    Monster Update: Wights and Ghosts

    Great idea. I'd buy that book! It would make for some interesting (and perhaps inspiring) reading.

    Monster Update: Wights and Ghosts

    I agree. I loved them before I even got to the stats. Very cool backgrounds. And once I got to the stats I thought that these things are nasty! Great job WotC!

    Battle Cleric Options is up

    Nope. According to the compendium the defensive property is a +1 untyped bonus. Hmm. Battle clerics really rock don't they.

    Look what I have!

    Awesome! It's almost here! :D

    Raven Crowking's Nest

    You know it just dawned on me the other day while I was reading your blog that your style of writing is very similar to some guy named Gygax (I'm not sure if you've heard of him or not :p). But seriously, your cadence, the way you "speak" to your readers, just the way you get you points...

    Character Builder on the iPad coming soon?

    Really? What's the name of the app? I'd really like to have that one.

    Raven Crowking's Nest

    I just wanted to let you know that I'm enjoying your blog posts so much that I've added you to my favorites. Very interesting writing. Keep 'em coming! :) On a side note, any chance you'll revisit your R.E.Howard/J.R.R.Tolkien comparison thread. It was such a good topic. Maybe you could repost...

    XP Levels Revealed!

    Pssst. I think he left it with your neighbor down by Sesame Street! If it gets into the trash can you'll never get the money. I hear that can is a mess. Just sayin'.

    Firearms Preview

    I like the preview. There are some definite plusses to having a gun, without overshadowing other weapons. Basically shoot 'em then draw your real weapon. Good job of balancing.
