I'm a big proponent of condensing the skill list. In addition to these changes, I'd rework Drive and Pilot to include vehicle types, so that the skills work like Perform with its various performance types. This will reduce the need for some of the vehicle feats, like Surface Vehicle Operation...

lol Given Hasbro's past treatment of D&D they're more likely to say: Wizards of the Coast, our division that makes Magic: the Gathering and other games, had a successful quarter with increased sales from the reissue of one of its popular game lines.

Thanks for working on this. I agree that the Paladin could benefit from some additional feats (particularly since most of the divinity feats are so lame).

I'll join the chorus in recommending Toughness over Improved Initiative. The additional hit points will be most welcome. Also, I haven't seen this in play yet, but I anticipate that having a higher rank for Bloodied will also come in handy. I've learned to live with the fact that my Paladin...

This is much easier and elegant to implement.

I've always treated the feats with the +2 skill benefit as also making those skills class skills. I like the idea of giving characters a +2 benefit in all class skills and getting rid of cross-class skills. This would also lessen the difficulty of having to pick certain core classes for the...

Party of 7: 2 Paladins, 2 Rangers, Warlord, Rogue, Warlock We never got more than three squares inside the door. My Paladin did go down briefly and several characters were close to going down. Almost everyone used their Second Wind, the Pallys used all of their Lay on Hands, and the Warlord...

Alternatively, why is this a problem? Why can't the fourth player's PC also be on the ship? He can be one of the crew or a passenger, perhaps one who's been seasick up until the player shows.

Sure. The rogue would have combat advantage due to being hidden at the begining of their turn. At the end of their turn, after moving out to attack, the rogue would not be hidden.

Good suggestions. Also look at the Paladin's Valiant Strike.

Last weekend, we played out the Irontooth encounter in KotS. Irontooth had some ability that he used to grant the minions temporary hit points. Generally, this meant that the minions went down in two hits, and it certainly made the encounter more challenging.

That's why it's a Daily Power. I agree that it should be played as an aura.

I like the design of the Group Tenacity feat, but I'm not sure that it's a fit for the half-orc. Group Tenacity implies that half-orcs are natural leaders of humans, orcs, or whatever group they are with, which is not the traditional image of the half-orc. Their traditional image is more of a...

I'm not playing and don't intend to. First, I'm in a group that's playing Solomon Kane. Second, this is close to a project that I'm working on. And third, I don't like the alt-history premises underlying the game. My read is that it's fairly alt. From the Campaign Guide...

I've had the same problem with the Dragonborn article.

For d20 M, I allow PCs to spend an action point for a Heroic Surge. So, the feat isn't required.

I like the faster loading times. I don't like the slider bars around the stories on the front page. They seem unnecessary and really add visual clutter.

Occupations help, but they don't solve this problem in all cases. Regardless, players are required to do too much planning and character design levels in advance, resulting in too much delayed gratification. There is no need to increase the skill points if you consolidate skills like Spot...

GiJoe also received a post-Vietnam reboot in the 70s as The Adventure Team.

This was my experience as well. Plus, because of the limited availability of some class skills, you sometimes have to juggle odd combinations of classes and/or backgrounds in order to meet the prerequisites for an AdvC. I started my first d20M game at 3d Level but quickly realized that the PCs...
