I understand the point but... Interesting that "this has happened before", but there is an important distinction for me - and I suspect for many others as well: at that time the replacement was specified in detail, today we just vague words that something is coming. I'm sorry but a lack of...

No boycott from me either - although temporary restraint on buying WotC products is in the offing. If WotC experiences a dip in sales because customers are annoyed, c'est la vie, maybe they'll learn a lesson from it. I find I'm pretty much saturated anyways - aside from some material that would...

I am still very angry. But I'll be civil. Many good questions from others here on the details, but I must repeat one in my own words that a few others have mentioned and remains on my mind: How will WotC repair relations with D&D/d20 hobbists considering our righteous anger stirred up by such...

Dare I hope that a phoenix arises from this fire? I guess we'll have to wait...

No surprise word gets around fast... I just spent a bit of time at the Wizards boards and elsewhere. Almost everyone is reacting with at least disappointment and there's plenty of anger too. I don't have any blame for Paizo, I think they did a fabulous job with Dragon and Dungeon. :D I blame...

So... what'll happen to Dragon now? Yeah, I just stumbled uopn the news a few minutes ago at Wizards D&D site. (You beat me on the scoop!) I am saddened by the implication that Dragon will no longer be available in hard copy as a real magazine to hold in your hand. As far as I'm concerned...

pfffffft! :eek: :lol: My gawd, I almost spit up all over my keyboard! :) Seriously: given the name "Duskblade" and it's elven roots, I think this class should have been presented as a prestige class of 10 levels along time ago; its tight specificities beg a prestige treatment. Alas there...

To all the canuck gamers: HAPPY CANADA DAY! :D :D :D Speaking of holidays, has anyone ever used a city or kingdom holiday as a plot element? Maybe set up a festival in which a little mayhem occurs to offer the PCs to "save the day" and earn some reputation for themselves in the setting?

LMAO! It's less provocative than the more mature "D&D for Dummies and Sex for Dummies bundle"! (Oh my, the multiple interpretions! Egads! What has been unleashed? :eek: ) I think I'll stop before I get into trouble... :D :D :D -W.

Okay! I'll keep your suggestion handy. Thankyou :cool: -W, still thinking...

I just reread the Wall of Stone spell myself and you are correct: Wall of Stone is Instantaneous. I wonder why I thought it was Permanent -- perhaps because the result of that spell is rather "permanent". Bad comparison on my part. :o I'll rethink this issue... I'll have the PC's reroll their...

I think it was the sniping part that the player was most interested in. He wanted to be able to get some advantage from a rooftop while his allies were already engaged with the enemy down on the street below... Move on roof, then shoot, then move again then shoot, and so on... -W.

Partyn of E: I'll think about that some... Funny how terms and definitions can make or break a game system. :) -W.

One must threaten first in order to be able to flank... Makes sense mechanically (strictly by game term definitions). So "threatening" at range is not possible... Then the trick would be to find some extraordinary means to flank at range even though we are too far to "threaten" as we would...

Hi folks, another question today: A LG cleric PC in my game was turned into a small viper by a Yuan-ti abomination (failed the Fort save, but passed the Will save). The spell is "Permanent" like a Wall Of Stone is, but is appears in the rules that Dispel Magic should undo this unfortunate turn...

Hello folks, Quick question (I hope): is there a means to flank an opponent who hasn't lost their Dexterity bonus with a ranged weapon, say for example at 60 feet, in order to satisfy the requirements for a Sneak Attack? IIRC Sneak Attacks normally require one of two conditions: 1) both the...

Yeah, that floored me too... -W, shaking head :D

LOL! Ya got me! Alas, I must reveal myself, the pretense can no longer be sustained: I am not a cool geek -- I am an old geek. -W, :lol:

Believe me folks, even thought I seem rather reactive in my words, I also see a fair potential for humour. While shocked I have also been smiling... I will certainly skim through the book and reserve final judgement at that time. Maybe I should write and post here a review, as soon as I get a...

:heh: definition? :heh: -W, scratching his head
