    I just logged in as my daughter to get the $25 8x10 print. How can we get all the magnets in a pledge?

    Uniting the Editions, Part 2 Up!

    Goodness, YES! I respectfully disagree with Alzrius in that houseruling is a fundamental benefit of D&D and not a reflection of a flaw in the mechanics. I don't need mechanics for everything. I offer up the supposition, that the heavily codified 3.x system, catering more to the player...

    What do you recommend for the Xbox 360?

    Oh, man. I can't believe I forgot that one too. I played the first one on the PC, but the second on my XBox 360. Totally awesome.

    The Paladin and the Stirges

    No, I think you made your opinion clear, but you followed Dave's quoted bit with this: And then later in the post called it a PR Nightmare for WoTC. I am simply disagreeing with the PR part and I disagree with the idea of coming to another forum (EnWorld) and posting that it's a PR Nightmare...

    The Paladin and the Stirges

    I mistyped what I was trying to say. I apologize for that. I was referring to you calling it a PR Nightmare for WoTC and I didn't clarify. My Bad. I am not attacking you, but I am questioning your need to call it a PR Nightmare when it in actually is quite far from it. My understanding is...

    The Paladin and the Stirges

    I understood very clearly that you were talking about it being WoTC's PR nightmare and not Dave's. In the NDA, WoTC apparently gave some of the early players and DMs the right to talk about there experiences and the fluff of the game without divulging mechanics. What Dave did was exactly that...

    Social Skills, starting to bug me.

    I can kind of see where you are coming from, but there are a lot of other examples where rolling behind the screen are more apropos. For example a Listen check at a door. How can you know how well you "performed" if in fact the lurker was totally silent or they had a silence spell? Do you...

    The Paladin and the Stirges

    Calling it a PR Nightmare is an overreaction. Instead you could have just asking a question in his blog and waited for a clarification. You made an assumption without any facts and then claimed WoTC had a PR Nightmare on their hands. It's sad because other people might take it out of context...

    Uniting the Editions, Part 2 Up!

    Maybe the DMG will have a section, called "How to Houserule the Game so That it Fits Your Game Table", where they give examples at how to build your own modules or how to houserule something so that it is easy to do (for as much of the majority of people as is reasonable). These guidelines can...

    The Paladin and the Stirges

    I am pretty sure Dave Chalker did make a statement in the comments section clarifying things.

    What do you recommend for the Xbox 360?

    Was Fallout 3 an XBox exclusive title? That was an awesome game, though I haven't played any of the expansions.

    The Paladin and the Stirges

    Really? A PR Nightmare? How about: It was a decisive call from a DM that didn't have the exact ruling, so he made it interesting and flavorful and fun (and maybe even a bit more realistic) for the players and yet they weren't sidetracked and were allowed to continue without being...

    Seminar Transcript - Reimagining Skills and Ability Scores

    This may be less troublesome than you think. Obviously, not everything will be available at launch. But if there's a decent OGL/GSL/5eLic then 3rd party companies can thrive by creating the content you might be looking for. And if WoTC is going to do what they say, then the "module" approach...

    Seminar Transcript - Reimagining Skills and Ability Scores

    Seriously? No one is spitting in your face. This is the kind of hyperbole that ignites edition wars, and this is something that I hope EVERYONE wants to avoid with this new edition. At least WoTC appears to be trying to avoid it. I like 4e Devas, 4e Dragonborn, 4e Tieflings. Not as...

    Social Skills, starting to bug me.

    Not sure if this has been mentioned yet, since I only read the first 2 pages, but... If an individual doesn't want to use social skills and wants the DM to rely on his in-game roleplaying, but other players do because they aren't comfortable with that level of RP or are shyer than normal, it...

    Seminar Transcript - Reimagining Skills and Ability Scores

    My grammar has a lot to be desired, but I am glad you got the gist of what I am saying. (If I could give it to you I would, but I must spread XP around...) I mostly want to hear from people that actually played the D&Dn-v0.01 rules at DDXP. Most of what I have read was excitedly optimistic.

    [Savage Worlds] New GM to SW and Sundered Skies...

    OK - so we had our first session on Saturday and it was friggin awesome. Yes.... we had like 6 hours to hang and play, yes... almost 3-4 hours were spent on character creation. But I have a great party to Marshal. I have: A crazy, mean Clint Eastwood style bounty hunter ( our only real...

    Seminar Transcript - Reimagining Skills and Ability Scores

    I am getting the impression that people are taking the transcript and extrapolating some specific rules and assuming that these rules will be RAW when they haven't even presented any specifics. Most of what I read were the ideas and thoughts about the the direction of the game, and yes, they...
