    What did we do before feats, skills, and prestige classes?

    That is exactly what I am saying. The question is: what's inherently wrong with that?

    What did we do before feats, skills, and prestige classes?

    Yeah, on hindsight, you're quite right... I deleted it, so the thread does not devolve into political debate... apologies...

    What did we do before feats, skills, and prestige classes?

    I do not quite follow you, I do not think that that is what I imlpied, or at least I did not mean to do so. I do _not_ believe that the SoW comes from the listed abilities of the PC, quite the contrary, I believe SoW comes from the fact that the _players_ have to imagine more about how their...

    What did we do before feats, skills, and prestige classes?

    Well... I am not saying that _per se_ sense of wonder has been lost under the new system, merely that, with the plethora of ideas of others, there is less _need_ to do stuff yourself. This does not detract at all on all those who enjoy tinkering and inventing stuff from doing so under any...

    What did we do before feats, skills, and prestige classes?

    Eggsacktly... and to me (opinions may vary, as may your mileage) this method where you have to be inventive yourself somehow instills more sense of wonder (there we go again!) than just picking over puzzle pieces to put together some 'frankenstein' character looted from the ideas of others...

    [Eberron] Alien Invasion

    Well... maybe the Neogi already scouted out the world in ancient times. They are actually the ones who first invented/brought into Eberron the Warforged. The Neogi will field massive Warforged armies. The Lord of Blades will see the Neogi as a massive threat to his freedom, as the Neogi will...

    What did we do before feats, skills, and prestige classes?

    Hrmpfh... it is not how big it is, but how you use it... sorta... I did not need the rules to explain the differences. It had to do with tactics, ideas, motivation, weapons preferred (and not just whatever gives the most plusses), culture etc. I still don't. I disallow prestige classes as I...

    When was the last time mounts/mounted combat saw a use?

    Yup... such a traumatic experience, none of my players dared ride a horse in battle ever since....

    What did we do before feats, skills, and prestige classes?

    Hey.... which book can I buy to get this? You know, I really need an official book from WotC, as I abhor house rules and such.... Is it s feat or a skill? ;)

    Economics of a 4th Edition

    ;) is that because you are a lawyer or politician, or is it because there is nothing to gain.... ;) Anyhoo.... I completely forgot about the novels... don't see how these tie in to the whole edition issue though... are the novels impervious to edition changes?

    [Eberron] Alien Invasion

    Sounds pretty cool. Maybe the 'secret' in defeating the Neogi revolves around capturing their space vessels. As long as the Neogi can 'bombard' from 'orbit', they cannot truly be defeated. Think 'V'. The PC's need to infiltrate and somehow capture (at least one) of the Neogi 'mother ships' in...

    Economics of a 4th Edition

    Well, speaking economically, especially taking into account the fact (?) that PHB sales together outstrip the sales of pretty much all other books combined, then a new release is definately a good move. However, should WotC try to keep the rest of the hobby happy, then one of the best things...

    Agianst the Giants

    I would probably buy them as well, but I would then hope that they update (mainly expand prolly) on content a bit as well for them to be interesting, as I already have all the originals.

    PTOLUS - Who has pre-ordered?

    ;) yeah.... well.... besides the magazines, there's only the Shackled City and the Dragon Compendium so far coming from Paizo.... so thats prolly why Paizo disappears under the radar for some people... ;)

    Economics of a 4th Edition

    Yeah... and I will sue you for the total cost of my then defunct 3.x edition library. Be warned. I have pretty much ALL the WotC books and about 100 third party books... ;)

    Dungeon 136 Cover

    Hmm.... do these money ninja-pirates wield dual scimitars??? Do they have a 'thing' for spiders???

    PTOLUS - Who has pre-ordered?

    I recently pre-ordered. Havent had the time to check out the preorder content on the website, also not clear how to access it. Ordered through the site, through the WW shop.

    Agianst the Giants

    Well... doing things for free rarely leads to a lot of direct gain... However, updating the 'nostalgics' to continue the 'collective experience' among younger players, allowing people to share again these classic modules may do wonders in terms of longer term customer loyalty/binding/bringing...

    High Level Plot Help -- Demon Haunted Earth

    Okay, I'll give it a shot.... The humans are called 'slaves of the faith', 'followers of the unspeakable' etc. Clues can be: when raiding the elves, the PC's find several treatises on deific energies and how to suppress them / defend against them, some philosophical debates in letters (a...

    Would DnD/d20 Benfit from a 4th save?

    Glad to be of service! It is all a matter of perspective...
