You tricked me! :D But maybe I tricked you into tricking me? Then again, you could have tricked my tricking you, so then you may have really tricked me... Or did you? How do we know who tricked whom? Did you trick me or did I want to be tricked? And if I wanted to be tricked, doesn't it...

If 4E like SW Saga Ed, then No Thank You. I must preface my remarks to say I, like many folks here, will probably get a copy of the 4E PH and base further decisions predicated upon the quality of the new edition rules set. Having invested in 3.0/3.5 in many hundreds of dollars - I don't see...

The Kuo-Toa Whip (a leader adept/cleric character it seems) is an uncommon; the Kuo-Toa Hunter is a common. IIRC there hasn't been a Kuo-Toa mini since the very first set, "Harbinger" (of which I have 4 the slimy little guys). I'm looking forward to this set in hopes that there will be many...

A DM's view... Speaking as a DM: I expect a certain degree of "power-gaming" from most players and regard it as Skillful Character Optimization (SCO). ;) However, as a caveat to this view of mine, I draw the line with players generating PC's assembling a mish-mash of uber-features that fail...

Aye, I canna choose jus' one! These three, each of which I bought my own copy :) Midnight (v.2) Arcana Evolved Conan, Atlantean Ed. Honorable mentions (which I also have bought): Babylon 5 Traveller T20 Everquest (v.1) Wilderlands

That was VERY useful! :) DMJeff and Oyran77, Your links are great, I've been needing something like these condensed info sheets for awhile since DM screens simply do not offer enough cross references. This'll help speed up some of my DM duties. Thank you very much! :)

Lovely thread to read! :) I DM an all-male group of 4 grognards - old friends but kinda predictable and stale in their gaming style; and I just play in another group of 6 - one of the 2 women is the wife of the DM, and one of the male player's is a Catholic Priest with an excellent sense of...

Okaaaaay.... Morrus: Thank you very much for your efforts at compiling our concerns and delivering them to the folks at WotC. It must have been a challenge. Well done on your part :) Scott Rouse: Thank you for dropping by the lion's den! I am glad you have to courage to post and I hope you...

Hi, have you had a look at Kingdoms of Kalamar? The latest setting sourcebook (2000, and 2003) is rich in detail (some call in "dry" but there are ideas everywhere and totally full of great fluff and free of crunch. Great details on a 43 god pantheon, 5 human cultures, 2 hobgoblin kingdoms (the...

I still have cousins and aunts and uncles in Holland, and I enjoy visiting the "old country" every few years. :) "...beyond redemption..." Yikes, I didn't know you felt that strongly about it. But that's :cool: I am not insulted - in fact you made me laugh :) C&C? Well, I am thus obliged to...

Actually, being a Canuck of Dutch ancestry, and having done a little research: Giant (n): an imaginary figure of superhuman size and strength; appears in folklore and fairy tales. In Dutch/"Nederlands": krachtpatser, mannetjesputter, kerel, reus. Results from LookWAYup.com , a free...

Well, on my part I willing to give them a week to pull themselves together. I think a cooling off period is a healthy thing. I expected an immediate counter to the bad news, but all we have so far from WotC is the deafening sound of silence. This silence over their responsibility of causing...

Wait a minute! I just thought... I'm a DM, doesn't that make me evil by default? :lol:

Chaotic Good, I think. I believe I was once LG as a kid, trying to be good and obedient; by the time I was a teen I was a goody-2-shoes and smug about it too! But then real life sunk in and I learned very quickly that authority can not ever be trusted - absolute power corrupts absolutely and...

Thank you very much for the effort and your patience with all of us. :) :) :) I hope you will receive some valuable answers from WotC that you can share with us!

Hmmm.... There may be something to that. Hasbro's consumer base is primarily families with young kids. All it takes is some new exec with strong socially conservative sensibilities to step in and stir the pot, cause a stink and order changes... Hasbro exec: "What is this D&D stuff? Fiendish...

Holy coincidence Batman! I am wash in the afterglow of serene thought and a cool cider following the weekend's hystrionics in which I too played a role.... Sigh. :heh: So, I've been reading threads and absorbing this latest round of news. While the Dragon/Dungeon news was a honest to...

Oooo.... I'm impressed! A new spin on a traditional "pest", new art and inspirational ideas. I like :D

Hello caelum, that was well written and I agree to the gist of what you said - I couldn't have expressed the same any better! Cheers :D

I may have not expressed myself well there :) It is true that they gave us advance notice. And I agree it hasn't worked as they may have hoped. However the advance notice came as a bomb for many customers, not a trial balloon. Customer relations is a tricky thing, and bombs certainly don't win...
