    Pathfinder 1E Paizo Annoucement!

    Bold! Audacious! But ultimately, I think it will be remembered as a brave attempt... I am a Pathfinder subscriber, and will continue to be in the short term. I was hoping that the Adventure Path #3 would be 4E but I expected not (with the lack of GSL and all) so I'll probably hang on at least...

    Firearms Proficiency (help ASAP!)

    Yep, got it. But busted the test for stupidity on other questions. Stupid! :)

    Got it! (I think...)

    How Do You Like the Warlord?

    I'd just like to say thanks for posting an unbiased poll! You like? YES / NO Genius!

    A suggestion to 'fix' hit points.

    I agree with your sentiments, but people want to say: "I hit!" and "You take damage!" Like you, I have come full circle from thinking HP were the worst thing ever to actually being the best way of doing things. Once I accepted that, it wasn't a big deal to also accept 'hit' and 'damage.' It...

    1.5 instead of 1-2-1?

    I've said it before, I'll say it again: there is so much more behind the decision to go to 1:1 than just "it's easy." It now has my full support, and this is coming from the guy that started the first thread on what a poor decision I thought it was at the time. Do what you will, but I'm fairly...

    How does Blast work?

    I hope not... that would be a step in the direction of the DDM cones, which is the wrong direction. The DDM cones can't be centered straight ahead, enforcing such a corner-to-corner restriction on the square blasts would effectively impose the same limitation.

    How does Blast work?

    Thanks! You know, I like that. I like that much better than the horrible cones they came up with for DDM 2.0. Too bad they didn't use the 4.0 blast for DDM, too.

    How does Blast work?

    The breath weapons of the two dragons we have stats for are Close Blast 5. Do we know how that works exactly? I know a burst is centered on the model and affects all around at that radius, like the Fear they also have. But a blast is different, and it's been said that it won't use a cone...

    D&D 4E manual of the planes 4e

    I really hope the 4E cover is a placeholder. IMO, it's the worst of any 4E cover seen. Plus, a cover worse than the original is not a good homage.

    Why is the Grell an elite, not a solo monster?

    I think it's all a giant Tetris game. They arrange the blocks in different orders as required to get it all to fit on the page around the artwork without breaking up a stat block.

    Keep on the Shadowfell -- 5 or 20 May?

    NP...I too am guilty of seeing what I want to see at times. Anyone else?

    Keep on the Shadowfell -- 5 or 20 May?

    Great! Where'd you see that? (I only see 'May 2008' on the product page.)

    Keep on the Shadowfell -- 5 or 20 May?

    Help, my search-fu is weak. Amazon lists KotS release date as 20 May. But I read on some blog or post on Thurs that at the seminar, WotC stated KotS will come out 'a month before the rules.' Well, 20 May is actually just over 2 weeks before 6 June. Now, it may just be semantics... May is the...

    Dungeons of Dread Preview 5

    I beat you by 4 minutes! But you posted the whole thing, so I vote for yours to stay. I like... but it frustrates me that the lowliest rank-and-file angel is a rare. I hope I'm not expected to use more than 1 or 2 at a time.

    New Player's Handbook Cover Art!

    I readily admit I am splitting hairs that are different shades of gray. I was reluctant about typing 'younger crowd'... maybe a better statement is that, to me, the green dragon art more screams 'D&D' to the curious new guy. Of course, a valid counter point would be 'what better art then for...

    New Player's Handbook Cover Art!

    I like the green dragon art, but I'm glad it's not the cover. Too busy, too cliche, too 'for-a-younger-crowd.' I think it is a great piece for the intro box, sitting on Target shelves next to the board games (and I will buy it, too!) But I think the PHB cover is more (for lack of a better word)...

    New Player's Handbook Cover Art!

    MM cover also slightly adjusted. Orcus' rod overlaps the top banner, for one.
