    Irreconcilable differences(Forked Thread: When did I stop being WotC's...)

    You don't have to go back in time You don't have to go back in time to see how people thought 3ed "destroyed" D&D. Their are several current gaming websites that 3rd edition can not be discussed on, or is referred to as The Edition That Shall Not Be Named (TETSNBN) and people who like/play...

    4E encounter spells for AD&D

    trade ya I will trade you 2 of my players for one of yours. My players are great and I have been friends with them for over 20 years, but they barely keep track of the fact they have wands, much less the charges. RK

    When did I stop being WotC's target audience?

    no one is saying that I don't think anybody said that the developers did not radically change the game. Nor, did they think that 100% of people would change over on day 1. But they certainly did not pick a sub-section of gamers and say, Nay, we don't care what they want. Now, that...

    Forked Thread: WotC changes how D&D mini's are going to be sold.

    Not me but Now, I don't paint my own minis (not since the early 80s). But 2 guys in my group are into that sort of thing. And both would put as much effort in regardless of what they are painting. One guy is a Games Workshop Fan, so his painting comes from that background. The other guy...

    The Best D&D edition for me.

    How do you want to handle story Hello, How do you want to handle the story elements? If it is give and take of players and DM then any edition can handle that. And the 4ed starter may be good to take a look at (for being easy to find and budget). Do you like rolling for non-combat skill...

    The Best D&D edition for me.

    not my own edition...HA I have played all editions, and my edition of choice is 3.5. However, I agree with everything in the above post for you. I do have one question. As you are new to D&D, and you are not looking for a combat intensive game, what are you hoping to do during play...

    So... My Group Just Broke...

    wow So, Player gets engaged 1st, ask dm to be bridesmaid Dm then gets engaged, sets an earlier wedding date, and does not even invite Bridesmaid to the wedding. Dude, something went on behind the scenes, and this might have been the least destructive method of it occuring. You did...

    So... My Group Just Broke...

    I feel for you Hi, Yep, social interaction/real life can be a real pain in the nether regions. I am down to gaming a bit via email and 1 face to face every few months (4-6 months)...... All because my group became friends outside of gaming. What begin as 5 players in high school in the...

    What ARE feats for? Min-maxing or Role-Play customization

    optimal customization to your archetype Feats allow me to make the optimal build for my chosen archetype. So, I don't use them to make the most powerful character, I use them to build the most optimal Archer, or the most optimal magic-user/thief. It may be a subtle difference, but a big...

    Dwarf Mountains: Alps or Rockies?

    it is ok He does great with it. The first time he watched the scene where the trolls capture the dwarves kinda scared him, but he wanted to watch it again. The combat scenes are fine. There is little to no "contact" shots. Of course my son likes things that are on the scary side. RK

    Dwarf Mountains: Alps or Rockies?

    shadow of where you live Apparently, you picture it as the closest mountain range to yourself. For me, it is not only the Appalachians but specifically the Smokey Mountains with its forested slopes. In fact, we are going there on a mini-vacation next month. My 3 year old son (who has...

    Forked Thread: Compare FRCS4e to other Settings

    I was going to post something like this in the other thread. The FR Campaign Guide, really reminds me of a hardback version of the old Greyhawk Gaz. The regional write ups are quick and dirty, that for me are perfect to spur my creative juices. I really like the Campaign Guide as...

    WotC to Revise D&D 4th Edition GSL and SRD

    Yep yep, my master's thesis (industrial/organizational Psych) used maybe a thousand people filling out questionaires and was used to extrapolate correlations to "university students" all of them, everywhere (ok maybe just US college students but still not even 1% of a %. rk
