    In case you missed it: WotC 2010 Spring Catalog

    Interesting line up. I'm guessing their module line did fairly well, if they're starting another one. And 12 bucks for a fully detailed town might be worth it, depending on how modular it is.

    Blast trouble

    Sure. The requirement of a close blast is that one part of it be adjacent to you. So, by RAW, there's nothing wrong with this x - empty square X - Empty Square being Blasted d - dragonborn a - ally e - enemy E - Enemy being Blasted B - Would be in the blast, if it wasn't for the wall xad...

    Mounted combat question

    There's no rules right now for your mount being forced to flee because someone swung a sword at him. Just like there's nothing like that for any other NPC(combat trained or not). However, i'd think that the Mounted Combat feat would let you keep control of a mount in combat, even if they...

    Psion to debut in July

    You know, I think it'd be cool to have them be like the Revenants, having some ties left over from their previous race, since Elan weren't born, but created (IIRC).

    Staff as implement (Do I need two hands?)

    Just to throw more confusion in the mix, a staff implement was specifically disallowed in the Eberron Player's Guide for being a warforged component because it must be wielded in 2 hands.

    Holy cow my party has 3 strikers in it

    I've got a striker heavy group I'm running for as well, with 1.5 defenders, .5 leader and 4 strikers. I've found that even worse than minions is monsters 2-3 levels lower than the party. They still go down fast(2 hits, generally), but do better damage when they hit. Minions seem to drop too...

    How many DM's have actually run a published Adventure Path?

    I ran Rise of the Runelords to it's logical conclusion: TPK...twice. The first one I easily saw a way to keep the game going. The next one, 2 sessions later, stumped me, so the game ended. I was pretty disappointed. I played the Age of Worms AP, and was pretty happy with the experience...

    Classes and Roles: supply and demand

    I think the controller role is still the most difficult role to play well, which tends to make it less played. You have to select your powers correctly, to have something of use in most situations, and, honestly, you have to turn away from dealing straight damage. Damage is good, but strikers...

    D&D 4E (Speculation) 4e Monks Will be Defenders, Methinks

    But their primary stat is Dex. The +2 from the class feature puts them in the same range of AC as a rogue, which isn't shabby. +4 from dex, +2 from the class feature /is/ in the range of chain mail at least, which isn't bad at all for a striker. And they can go the two weapon defense route to...

    Footwork Lure and Passing Attack

    Because you slide them to a specific square, effects that increase or decrease the amount slid don't make sense. If you the power with a normal weapon, and something that increases the amount of the slide, they either end up in a square other than the square you started in, or they end up...

    Footwork Lure and Passing Attack

    Footwork Lure specificies a specific square you slide the creature into. You can neither increase nor decrease the amount of squares you slide them(though they can use something that prevents a slide altogether, and you can choose no not slide them at all). If you have a power that increases...

    goliath path and powers

    Innate Reach also affects power that are Touch range(mainly Melee Touch, can't think of anything that was Close Burst Touch, but I guess it'd be possible). Touch attacks take into account your innate reach, but not any reach granted by a weapon.

    What is it about rogues?

    Isn't Rogue the one who steals the strength, powers, and eventually life of anyone who toucher her, let alone cuddles? *blink blink* Rogue is a succubus? :devil:

    Is WotC still the industry LEADER?

    That brings up a good question, then. If WotC isn't the leader in hobby gaming, who is?

    Looking for text version of 4.0 character powers

    I end up with a problem where I can hit the sign-in button, and the page refreshes. I'm not signed in then, however. When it hit it again to sign in, it usually works that time. Occasionally it takes a 3rd. Boggles the mind.

    Warden Questions

    Unlike other defenderss, Warden's don't punish critters for attacking your allies as such. In stead, they let their allies get away. For example: Monster moves up adjacent to ally and attacks them. The warden then, after the attack, slides them away and prevents them from shifting later that...

    Defeating my powergamer Glave master

    If you don't want to metagame to defeat this(though honestly most encounter /should/ have ranged attacks of some sort), then have one of them attempt to move up, and get stopped. Then the other can move up to just inside his reach them shift inside it...just like a player would do with...
