The reason there's a great deal of D&D-esque material in the core book has been stated before. The strategy, as I understand it, was to draw in RPGers who are already familiar with D&D. Now that that has been accomplished, the creators are tapping into the Alternity/Dark*Matter market, which I...

I think the mistake is that both "attorney" and "lawyer" should appear in Chapter 1, under "Fiend".

Erinyes also seem to have lost a few spell-like abilities, such as polymorph self (which was changed in 3.5, but it should have been replaced with something similar).

What I'm planning right now is that the PC's, shortly after the Battle of Naboo, find Maul's Sith Infiltrator and are requested by the Jedi Council to deliver it from Coruscant. Along the way, they are attacked by Aurra Sing, who is piloting the Falcon.

I'd like to see Defense added, simply because the only way to have a high AC in D&D right now is with armor. This goes against plenty of movies (like LOTR, Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves) where unarmored heroes whomp more heavily armored bad guys, without having to be monks or duelists or have a...

If there's a job at WOTC to review products for this sort of thing, where do I apply?

My parents had more of a problem with how loudly I played Def Leppard albums in my room. All my gaming buddies' parents never had a problem with D&D and seemed thankful we weren't out getting high, stealing cars or deviant behavior. I remember one Christmas showing my mother my Forgotten...

I didn't have my RCR with me when I pointed out the typos. Thanks for the clarification. Trivial typos aside, I thought that the article was thoroughly researched and very informative. I plan on using the Falcon in my Rise of the Empire campaign, minus some of the modifications (the ones that...

I have the Tales of the Jedi sourcebook published by West End Games in the late 1990's. It's d6 System, but can be converted to d20 system. There's one currently for sale on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3144360781&category=2547 There's also some material in the...

Did anyone catch the typos in the Millenium Falcon's stat block in Dungeon #103? The weapon entries for the quad laser cannons and the concussion missile launchers reads "6d10<<ts>>2" and "9d10<<ts>>2" for damage instead of "6d10x2" and "9d10x2". Also the Attack Bonus for the concussion missile...

We must be about the same age, because that's how I remember it. There still aren't as many gamer girls as guys, no matter what they look like, but that's neither good or bad in my opinion. As long as you're having a good time with your friends. My groups in high school and then college were...

Use the rules in the Monster Manual for changing a creatures size to make the Tarrasque fine, diminuitive or tiny, add the swarm template and bring plenty of clean underwear...

I like the idea you suggested. I'll drop energy drain entirely on vampires (they have blood drain already) and use this one on the other undead with this ability (like the wraith). I think that shadows already drain Str instead of levels.

The problem is that energy drain is just "wrong" for the vampire, as I see it. I think dropping it and lowering the CR would work better.

I like how they changed the ghoul in D&D 3.5 to be more like the hollywood movie ghoul. I just don't understand why they kept that energy drain attack as part of the vampire. For the vampire, I was just going to drop the energy drain attack entirely and stick with the blood drain attack, since...

I've really hated the idea of the Energy Drain power (draining character levels) since D&D 1st Edition, especially for vampires. For monsters that aren't vampires, I just changed this so that Constitution is drained. To me, energy drain just doesn't fit the "classic" vampire, so for vampires in...

Barring any new info from Episode III, there's hardly any info on the Falcon pre-classic trilogy, except for that 1) Lando owned it and 2) Han won it from him in a card game. I think it's a great idea for prequal campaigns.

I like Dragon and Dungeon/Polyhedron the way they are, thank you, and have since 3rd Edition issues began.

Sometimes I put a slice of lemon in my Coke. Many people have been doing this for years. What I don't get is why Lemon Coke is only available in DIET. It's not such a big deal if I am at home with access to both lemons and Coke, but buying a bottle of Coke and a lemon while I'm out and about...
