    D&D 4E 4e price increase?

    You are right This is probably a good analogy for me. I am somewhat interested in the Wii system and saw it on sale for $250. Considering that much lay out (in one chunck) and the amount of time I have to play video games it is not worth it, for me. 4ed at $120. If I had to drop it all at...

    D&D 4E 4e price increase?

    not so wrong Not so wrong here. 2 income household, 1 kid. $120 for hobbies in a single month is significant . I could not do it without blinking that is for sure. I will be doing the one book a month. Now, $120 for the set to play with for years, is a good deal. But dropping $120 on a...

    D&D 4E 4e Design and JRR Tolkien

    didn't Gimili I believe in the book Gimli was reluctant to go into the mines. He was nervous because he knew the dwarves had lost contact with the outside world. But ditto on both the comedic treatment he got int the movie and the Faramir treatment (in TT). RK RK

    How does striking an opponent heal your allies?

    The answer is Chuck Norris. They are mimicing Chuck Norris's ability to round-house kick hitpoints from one person to another. RK

    Races and Classes cover on Amazon!

    point of comparison Hello, Frankly I think it would be silly to compare this to a gaming book. I am comparing it to a graphic novel. For that, this book stacks up pretty well. If the art is as good as I am hoping, it will get a lot more use than a one time read through. I hope it is not...

    You're Playing Cards Wrong!

    yep In collage, many many years ago, I tried to insist to play by the RAW in terms of Free Parking and Auction of unbought properties. Sometimes I won, sometimes I was told to hush and play nice. It is an incredibly different game. I have also seen these house rules: You can't purchase...

    Why can't WotC break the mass market barrier?

    heroscape Agree. They should have a basic box, with basic expansions in every store that carries heroscape. Heck, they should find a way to cross-market the two. RK

    It won't be hard to put insta kill back into the game, will it?

    should be easy Hi, I don't see much issue with adding in some spells or items that are "save or die". I would probably advise to wait till the players (if they are experienced with earlier editions) are in synch with the DM rolling spell attacks rather than players rolling saves...

    D&D 4E 4E: Manufactured Excitement

    Why? Why? Because it is fun. It is fun to get excited and hyped over something, esp. something like a game...or tv show (the month of august was a month of can't wait till Season 2 of Heroes gets here). In May of 08 we will have the product and will judge it on its full merits at that point...

    perception of OD&D/AD&D as random deathtraps

    save or die situations The phrasing about the save or die being the last effort to save the character turned a light on in my head. I can accept this and it even gives me some inspiration going forward. But this takes a good DM. Two true stories I think really highlight this; 1)...

    Moving to C&C... need help

    the claims can grate Hi, Own C&C, have read it, have run it. It is an excellent system. But the Claims of everyone "has" all the action feats always grated on my nerves. Here is my take C&C's Siege Engine allows players to try any action D&D has feats But, just because action feats...

    I hope the three core rulebooks have a "DM's clause".

    3.5 Page 6 Hi, In 3.5 Page 6 under Character Creation, In Large font (as a section heading) CHECK WITH YOUR DUNGEON MASTER Your DM may have house rules or campaign standards that vary from these rules. Before even getting to ability roles, the Players Handbook points out that even the...
