    AD&D is not "rules light"

    I had to look up most of those rules you're referencing. Honestly, I didn't play with most of them. I tried using Weapon vs AC but it wasn't worth it IMO. We dabbled in Psionics, but most of our characters weren't psionic. I can recall reading the helmet rules but ignored them since they'd...

    2010: Is it Dragonlance? (hint)

    Based on James Wyatt's comments in the 4E One Year Later Tome Show podcast I doubt it's Greyhawk.

    PDA for PDFs?

    Please do. I thought my wife ordered me one but she's apparently waiting until my birthday a few months away. I'm really curious how it handles PDFs with its native support.

    Utility Magic: What's your favorite and why

    Alarm Pretty much a must have for me. Really useful when you camp for the night. Arcane Eye or Prying Eyes (? SRD Name, thought it was different in the book) I love being able to scout out dungeons or bare minimum figure out which way to go if offered multiple choices.

    Can anyone recommend any good 4e or non-old school blogs?

    I think that blog is going away in July. I'd recommend Critical Hits

    Pathfinder 1E Interview with PATHFINDER lead designer Jason Bulmahn

    I'm glad I'm not the only that was thrown by the 'rules for stairs' comment. I have PFRPG pre-ordered and I'll definitely be checking out the rules for stairs.

    The new Kindle DX: good for gaming?

    I think my wife ordered me one. I have a few D&D PDFs (all legal) that I'll test it out on. BTW, the color thing doesn't bother me, I loaded up a Dragon Mag on my wife's kindle 2 and the formatting was bad but the pictures actually looked great in the greyscale.

    Fiend Folio: 30 Years of Flumph

    Yep, it must have been double page flipping. I actually had a nightmare about that entry which is why I would flip past it. I know I never used one while DMing either. There weren't too many entries in any of the monster manuals that actually scared me when I was a kid.

    Fiend Folio: 30 Years of Flumph

    Wow, that's is really cool. Yet another reason why EN World is so great. That must have been a kick when he saw the Shadow Demon in the cartoon. Slight tangent but Plane Sailing's RL name is a great CoC character's name. I'm going to use it if I play that game again. Giving the creator's...

    Fiend Folio: 30 Years of Flumph

    For me it was the Pennanggalan. I used to turn the page really quick when I got to that entry. I'm 38 now, and I'd probably still do the same.

    New player asking for some advice/help, please. 3e vs 4e. Which one is for me?

    My advice, try them both and pick the version you prefer. You're the DM so use the ruleset you feel most comfortable with. Use the newly released 4E quickstart rules and H1 for 4E. You can use the Pathfinder beta or the SRD for 3E. Do a one off using each system to see how you and your...

    What PHB2 options are you most looking forward to?

    I voted Gnome so I could use the "I'm a monter, rawwr" line during a session. Jam

    How much money do plan on purchasing 4E/GSL products this year?

    So far I'm planning on spending $0 on 4E in 2009. I bought the core books and PDFs before I found out my group had zero interest in 4E (I'm the only one that bought the books in my gaming group). I just don't want to spend money on a system I'm not using. If my group suddenly decides that 4E...

    D&D Character Builder Preview Video

    Very well done Fozz. If you don't work for WOTC, they should really send you a book or something. That video is a great marketing tool. It made me want to sign up for DDI.

    Holiday Gift lists.

    I was thinking about a PS3 mainly for the Blue-Ray player but honestly I don't know. I told my wife I didn't really need/want anything. I must be getting old because I'm mainly looking forward to hanging out with the family over the holidays.

    PHB II in March?

    How about Templar for T? I like the name for a Divine type. Other than that, I really like your list The_Fan.
