    D&D 4E i4e: new 4th edition character sheet replacement for iPhone

    Right. I meant, without having to write it manually. With the pop-up window, will it be easier to cut-and-paste the info?

    D&D 4E i4e: new 4th edition character sheet replacement for iPhone

    Awesome. I'm looking forward to it. Does this mean that it'll include the power description when you open up a power?

    "Upgrading" soon, advice needed

    I use an iPod Touch as a PDA, and highly recommend it. It does everything I need, including contacts, detailed notes, calendaring, GTD time management, and various little utilities. IMO it's the best PDA on the market that doesn't require a monthly data plan. Its especially good for Mac...

    Shilsen's Eberron SH (Finished - The Last Word : 9/20/15)

    That's actually a very good question. Mike (Korm)

    Goblins, the final PHB3 race?

    Ooo yes. I love blues. I hope that there's an option in PH3 (or the inevitable Psionic Power) that will let a character play a blue. I also hope that blue goblins will be in the MM3.

    Battle Mage's Arcane Ripose is still useless

    I don't think anyone is arguing that it should be a powerful option, just that it shouldn't be completely useless.

    D&D 4E i4e: new 4th edition character sheet replacement for iPhone

    So? Just make it possible to sign into DDI from the app, and use those links. :)

    Battle Mage's Arcane Ripose is still useless

    The recent D&D errata updated the Battle Mage's Arcane Riposte ability to be a intelligence-based attack instead of a dexterity-based attack. Unfortunately, it's still useless. Its attack bonus is extremely low, and will rarely ever hit, for two reasons: 1) It's an attack vs. AC, but it lacks...

    Who ruined D&D's Rep?

    Dude, we sit on our arses for hours on end pretending to be elves, getting excited about imaginary magic swords, and fighting imaginary flying beachballs that shoot laserbeams from their eyestalks. We didn't need any outside help ruining our reputation. B-)

    Class Acts: Warlock

    That feat has singlehandedly revitalized my interest in warlocks. Very, very cool.

    4E Class Survivor Round 17 - The Fighter is the Sole Survivor!

    Or should we have a Round 18: What subtype of fighter is the ultimate survivor?

    Favourite Classes through the Ages

    I forgot to add Pathfinder. I haven't played it yet either, but I love what they did with both the Sorcerer and, especially, the Paladin. This is the first paladin since 1st edition that I've really wanted to play, that truly feels like a badass holy warrior.

    Favourite Classes through the Ages

    BECMI: Elf. I've always loved fighter/magic users as an archetype, and when I started playing I thought elves were the coolest guys in the world. I'm embarrassed to say that my first ever character was named Elrond Half-elven. :blush: 1e: Paladin. Kick-ass holy warriors with awesome...

    Dark Heresy and Rogue Trader

    Eclipse Phase has a great (if rather weird) setting, but the mechanics seem quite tied to the setting. I am about halfway through reading Diaspora, and am very impressed by it. It uses, at its core, the Fate system from Spirit of the Century, but modified and streamlined to fit hard sci-fi...

    [Ars Magica - 5E] How do the rules play?

    For these sorts of rules questions, you'd probably get the best response at the Atlas games forums, at Atlas Games: Charting New Realms of Imagination But to answer your questions: Yes. Note that this only works for Parma and Form bonuses, so if you have magic resistance from another source...

    Subtle Rule Changes

    That's not quite right. You can use Craft skills instead of Spellcraft, not instead of the item creation feats. You can ignore some prerequisites by upping the DC, but the item creation feat is always required. From the PFSRD: "The DC to create a magic item increases by +5 for each...

    [Folks that like 4e] What are some things from previous editions that you miss?

    I miss having wizards and other spellcasters that are able to do more than just blow things up in combat. D&D, for me, included wizards being magical swiss-army-knives, with multiple cool spells usable for many different purposes. Now, spellcasters are able to blow things up in combat and very...

    8-sided d4? (Or: "My Google Fu is weak") ...

    Does anyone know where I can get pairs of d6's labeled + and -. I have a pair of these: one is labeled from -1 to -6, the other is labeled from +1 to +6. I bought them from a bin years ago, but I can't find them anywhere online.

    Off-beat Inspiration for Fantasy Names?

    I get names from all sorts of sources. Sometimes I pick them from foreign cultures, sometimes I smush together real words, and sometimes I have no idea where the name comes from. I wanted my shifter character, Heyoka Jumps-Off-Mountains, to have a somewhat native/tribal vibe, so his first name...
