Xfer... You, sir, are made of awesome and win! Very nicely done. Please continue to add and improve as your muse guides you. As people email me at the 'info' email and commit to DMing a game or hosting an event of multiple games at a specific location, I would like to start a listing of...

Email address is available: info (at) militarygameday (dot) com

Ultimately it will come down to the individual DM or location organizer to determine when to run his game. The goal is for as many games as possible to happen on Saturday the 7th, but WotC and I are fully aware that it won't be possible for every game to happen no that day. Not a problem... I...

Hi Guys, Things are progressing well, but I don't have much more info at this time. I'm hoping the militarygameday.com website will be functional this weekend or early next week, at which time I can start compiling participants. I'll pass a dedicated email address at that point. For those...

Welcome to everyone that is finding this thread. As long as you can get APO mail, I will be able to get you a scenario kit to participate! Please continue to spread the word and expect more details as we build up the website. Xfer83: THANKS! I'll try to type up something Friday for you... for...

Thanks everyone! I will provide an APO address in a couple weeks (probably the first week of May.) Donations would be greatly appreciated. Xfer83: thanks for volunteering your web services. I figured I'd give a go at a myspace page, but a proper page would be much better. My hack at a domain...

Shane, Will do, just as soon as I set up a dedicated email--probably after work this evening. I won't have my in-country contact info until the end of the month.

Everyone, Thanks for the encouragement so far. As far as helping... I just need help getting the word out. I know there are plenty of D&Ders in the military that are deployed, but the trick seems to be tracking them down. I'm trying the gamer channels first. Hopefully this will get the attention...

(Mods: please leave in the 4E section for max visibility while in the infant stages. Thx!) Great news for military members (like me) that will be deployed during D&D Game Day: we will be able to participate! I inquired with WotC about the possibility of hosting a Game Day event at my deployed...

My bad, I did not mean to imply that you were quoting rules. I was just speculating as to how 'the marked creature must attack the paladin or take radiant damage, unless the marked creature has no opportunity to attack the paladin' (my sheer conjecture hack at the rule based on the described...

Thanks for that! A solid rationalization. One that still stretches verisimilitude a little much for my tastes, but as long as they fixed the potential abuse, I can accept it. Although, I have to wonder how they worded the caveat: 'does not take damage if unable to attack the paladin.' That...

I'm with you! While I will definitely run D&D straight out of the books, I am also considering a campaign that bans the Tolkien races. It's still D&D, straight out of the books, but just using humans, dragonborn, and tieflings. I also think it would be easy to use half-elf and eladrin mechanics...

While I'm not defending Sora Justice's post per se, I do think he has a valid point. Tighter control over their IP and an assurance of quality. One does not need an OGL to allow licenses that grow the industry, both in innovation and profit.

man, I really want to know the fix for this. This is one of those powers that just made no sense to me 'in character.' I have the power to hurt this guy, but only if he's not fighting me? Weird. It's a pure metagame creation. I like what it does...forces an enemy to fight the paladin, but the...

I don't think they ever promised an OGL. Stating 'there will be an OGL' is different. That may have been the case, stated in good faith, six months ago. They are well within their rights to change their minds since that original statement was made if they have determined it to no longer be in...

Wow, what a flawed argument. JD is passing judgment that the entirety of 4E provides less choice than previous editions, basing that decree off of a single narrow intro. Of course the latter will provide less choice than the full system! A better comparison would be 'what choices do a 1st-level...

Maybe the announcement of the Pathfinder RPG has caused WotC to have visions of the past. TSR fragmented its own player base through the release of too many competing versions/settings of D&D. The OGL has caused the same with 3.5. Learning lessons from the past, I can see the desire to prevent a...

And they're back! (Don't mind me while I converse with myself. As long as I don't lose an argument, it's perfectly fine.)

Strange... they took it down. Hordelings also has a no-longer-working link to the final 2.0 Night Below cards. Blast! I was already bummed at the lack of 4E info this week (and last, IIRC) and now the only morsel we've been given has been taken away. :(

Preview 9 is up: Ice Archon and Iron Defender. Nothing you haven't already seen if you've seen mini pics from DDXP. However, it does mention that there are only two elemental archons in the MM: fire and ice. So we'll have to wait a bit for earth, air, and water archons. I'm not upset about...
