    Breaking News: Kuo-Toa Not Froggy Anymore

    I prefer the 3e version by far (heck, I never even equated it to being froggy, just fishy and grotesque). It's not even a contest.

    What happens when the Defender dies?

    I endorse this opinion.

    Why you MAY switch

    I had a feeling that might be the case. No worries. :)

    Why are you still here?

    I'm here because it's one of the funniest forums on the internet. Plus, I get a little bit of useful information regarding 4e, so it's all good. :)

    Why you MAY switch

    Nope, no question from me. It all comes down to Pros vs. Cons vs. SWSE (or whatever I'm playing in June). My groups' opinions only matter insofar as they are welcome to play in the game I want to run or not play (i.e. I choose the system, not them).

    Why you MAY switch

    As I mentioned on the other two recent threads related to this topic, if the Pros outweigh the Cons AND I'm not still running SWSE games, I will most like switch. The Pros currently outweigh the Cons, but I am running SWSE, so at the moment I am most likely a no-go for 4e.

    Why won't you switch?

    There are only two reasons, at the moment, that I would not switch: 1. The Cons outweigh the Pros (currently, on my scoresheet, the Pros are in the lead). 2. I'm still running enjoyable SWSE games, in which case I wouldn't need 4e.

    WotC_Shoe: A tiny, tiny hint on new weapons post-PHB

    I liked Unearthed Arcana. :) I would rather have standard stuff in the core books and extraneous stuff in splat books that I am under no obligation to purchase.

    Why WILL you switch?

    My main reason to switch would be that the Pros outweigh the Cons. If the Pros continue to maintain the lead, I will be inclined to switch to 4e (so far, it's been a back-and-forth battle, but the Pros are ahead at the moment). I get a bit tunnel-visioned with regards to game systems, though...

    What was so bad about DMing 3x?

    Good point. It's obviously insane to use all the rules. Next time I run 3.5, I'll just send my players to Hobo if they want me to stick closer to the rules, because they obviously don't get it. Why do we even have different systems?

    What was so bad about DMing 3x?

    Why do different systems even exist? I know that I'm stumped. I'm guessing that "enough people" have probably posted very similar statements on the messageboards for other games (that they prefer). What's good for Group A isn't always good for Group B, no matter how many people post to the...

    What was so bad about DMing 3x?

    For me, a lot of it is feel, brought on by certain things in the 3.x system. I can say that power-balance, levels above 10, magic items, etc. have caused me plenty of headaches. I can't really communicate exactly, though, for two reasons. One, it's hard to put my thumb on exact issues, only...

    Chicago Gameday XIX 3/15/08: Planning Thread

    I've never been to a Chicago Gameday, even though I'm only a few hours away. I might try to make this one, but if I can't, approximately when would the next one be held?

    Gleemax Terms of Use - Unacceptable

    Admiral Akbar almost got you, didn't he? ;)

    Gleemax Terms of Use - Unacceptable

    That's what I thought and unless there is something that I am missing, that is how I understand that clause, as well. [Admiral Akbar] IT'S A TRAP! [/Admiral Akbar]

    Gleemax Terms of Use - Unacceptable

    So, if I post a picture that I found on the internet for my character portrait in some thread on Gleemax and then WotC includes said picture in a publication and was sued for it later (because I didn't really own said picture), I would have to bear all the costs related to the lawsuit. Is this...

    Opinions on True20

    True20 is battling with Star Wars SAGA Edition for the top spot on my list. I don't mind the generic classes, but would prefer M&M's classless approach more. I like the armor as toughness. I don't mind the damage system, although the Conviction Point mechanic is what makes it work. I like...

    What exactly is the deal with the 4th Edition?

    Okay, that was funny...very funny. :D

    D&D 4E What will you do first with the 4E PHB?

    Not sure, it depends on my mood. At the moment, I can only be sure that I will probably get it at some point in time.
