I'm aware that it's un-errated. But I use the content for fluff, mostly. If there's something I actually intend to use for crunch, I'll grab the compiled issue for the errata, but that happens so rarely that it's not really an issue. For the most part, I use Dungeon and Dragon to preview the...

Eh, I don't know about that. I think it's second to 30 Rock in the laughs-per-episode ratio, but it's still riotously funny. With how well they handled the zombie Halloween episode, and the paintball "homage-to-every-action-movie-ever" episode, I have high hopes for a D&D-themed episode.

On the topic of the compiled Dungeon and Dragon issues vs. individual articles...I guess I'm one of the guys you're all going to hate, because I remember taking that poll, and I voted decisively that I prefer to download individual articles. I don't want the entire issue, because 75% of it is...

Not wrong. It's just lazy, in my opinion. It shows (to my admittedly elitist, egotistical creative side) that the player just doesn't care enough to create a separate identity for their character, and I'm probably going to assume that this bleeds over into other aspects of the character. (Does...

I guess I'm still in the minority on this, but with the exception of the print spool sizes, I have absolutely zero *real* complaints about the online Character Builder. =/

They're not for me or my game. But as long as I don't have a player show up to the game with a deck of them saying "let's use them!" (which I don't anticipate happening with my group) then I don't have a problem with them.

Yeah, that's how I was reading the interrupts as well. Which does add to the number of attacks per round. I really just don't understand why they call Knockdown Rush a minor action. It should just be another standard. Calling it a minor confuses the issue, and makes my brain hurt trying to...

I'm looking to use the Behir Bolter Whelp in an upcoming adventure session, but I have a question on it's mechanics in combat. The creature possesses a trait called Lightning Reflexes which reads: I take this to mean that if it wants to use a minor action, then it must spend a standard action...

I have used this explanation to great aplomb with my in-laws (and non-D&D-playing friends) to the point where they now feel comfortable purchasing D&D/gaming stuff for me without being the least-bit self-conscious: D&D is a cooperative Choose Your Own Adventure book, where one person is in...

What goes to every game (in a backpack I paid way too much for, but has certainly earned it's keep): -Pencil box containing mechanical pencils and dry and wet erase markers -My once-a-first aid kit-now-a-mini case, full of all my D&D minis -My gray foam-lined case, full of all my painted Reaper...

Yeah, you'd think that, and then there's this bizarre quote from the front page here at ENWorld (emphasis mine)... Dalelands? Zhentarim? Nentir Vale? I pray someone goofed writing up that front-page description. =/

I so very much want to XP Dausuul for this, but I need to spread it around. Can anybody help a brutha out? ;)

I assume it will support online multiplayer, Scribble. But a long time ago, I adopted a policy of "expect to be disappointed". It works out pretty well, because I'm often pleasantly surprised by the little things. ;)

Hmmmn. S'nifty. I enjoyed crushing the BG: Dark Alliance games with my brother and D&D: Heroes with my wife. I could definitely see myself wasting a few pleasant hours with this. Bonus points to it if it supports online multiplayer, and not just "we're all sitting around the same Xbox with...

Yeah, I have to echo everyone else in this thread. I've heard of DM's banning/restricting powers or feats they consider overpowered, but to outright consider restricting a class feature seems a bit tyrannical to me. Simply put, Rogues *do* Sneak Attack. It's their shtick. Their thing. If...

Splendid. I have players waiting for the Earth Domain to be implemented for Warpriests, the Hexblade Warlock build, and the Sentinel Druid builds. Now, they can all build their characters without having to do it by...HAND! <GASP!> <SHOCK!> <AWE!> ...and there was much rejoicing. Yayyyyyy.

4e makes it simple to evangelize the game. I've recruited more new players since 4e came out than I did the entire time I was DM'ing 2e/3.5e. The fact that every role is clearly defined makes it easy for someone new to sit down at the table and see exactly what the fighter is supposed to be...

I played through it from level 1-12 before we TPK'd. It was good time from a player's perspective, and certainly had varied and interesting combat encounters. I thought the 1/3rd of the campaign arc that I experienced was an interesting enough story.

I played with my siblings growing up (in addition to my gaming friends), and my sister and brother have continued to play on and off with me throughout the years since. My wife plays in all of my games, since I and my close gaming friends introduced her to it a few years ago. My son, had he...

I'm glad to hear that I'm not the only person uncomfortable with this article. Don't get me wrong, I'm not clamoring for censorship or something about this. I just find the article to be vastly different in tone than what I've come to expect from Wizard's recent handling of Dragon. Many of...
