    Essentials - First Impressions of the product line - I feel claustrophobic!

    Interesting. My impression of the digest book format was very positive. It is easy to read (text larger) and easier to hold. The format feels cleaner to me...hard to describe. Perhaps less focus on pretty decorations and more focus on readable content. Another benefit of this format is that...

    Any 'collections' of MM1 etc monsters reworked to MM3 spec

    I just wish WotC would post an errata showing changes to all previous monsters that didn't get MM3 treatment...or at least update the compendium. Otherwise, it is like digging through a scattered mess. Perhaps they will release this errata around the time the Monster Vault is released. DDI...

    Ignorant questions about Essentials

    True. As a long time player, it was the nostalgia part that first got me interested in Essentials. Clerics with domains? Wizards with schools? All cool :) I think the names of the books are a little confusing...Heroes of the Forbidden...uh, Forgotten...what was that?

    Map Keys?

    Thanks! I knew what the triangles were for but didn't know the rest of the stuff.

    Future of WotC PDFs: Unofficial Sneak Preview?

    I was hoping WotC would drop the PDF format (which is great for printing, but not viewing on an electronic device unless it has a large screen). If they used ePub, MOBI, or some other format that works with modern e-readers, tablets, and iPad devices, that would go a long way to catching up...

    DMG & DMG2; need both?

    If you get DMG1, be sure to get the errata. One good that about the DMG1 is that it has background information about Fallcrest (and a map). I found that information very useful.

    "They told me it was something else."

    True story that I have never shared... The scare did get to me personally, but it was not my parents. Of all things...it was the radio. One day I was listening to the radio and some talk show was discussing D&D and how it was the stuff of the devil. People were calling in and agreeing with...

    rules question - taking something from an adjacent willing ally

    Minor action. Then roll a d20. If you get a one, then you grabbed something you did not intend to grab. I'll leave the rest to your imagination. :p

    No Character Builder Update

    [Gets a cig and inhales] No matter how hard I try, I just can't seem to get worked up over it. :yawn: It takes more than an overdue game update to get me worked up. Don't know if that's a blessing or a curse. :hmm: Sorry, that's just me.

    Real Astral Diamonds!

    Oh no, we only have 5 billion years left? They better hurry up on that virtual table and the rest of the tools--lest we never see it. :p

    Well, I did it, got an iPad!

    So how has your experience been in the iPad as far as RPGs go? Have you had a chance to read Dragon/Dungeon magazines on it? I'm gearing up to buy an iPad myself and looking for all the info I can get. Are you still a happy camper? Thanks :)

    Neverwinter Game Preview

    I don't mind the solo content at all. If my friends are over, I'd rather be playing real D&D. This is something I can do on a rainy day and get my rpg fix.

    Warning ipad owners and app writers

    Thanks for the warning. Thanks to your comments in the general forum, I'm looking to buy a new iPad to read my pdfs (and of course, a bunch of other stuff). Also, I watched some youtube videos and the pinch & zoom is amazing. Do you know if the camera kit allows you to use an SD card (for...

    Getting Back and looking for D&D Novel Suggestions

    It sound like you might be interested in post-spellplague FR novels (4e). I gather this from another thread: Abolethic Sovereignty -Plauge of Spells -City of Torment Blades of the Moonsea -The Swordmage -Corsair -Avenger Chosen of Nendawen -The Fall of Highwatch The Empyrean Odyssey -The...

    Monster Manual 3

    True. I decided to hold off on updating MM1/MM2 monsters to the current standard because hundreds of monsters have been impacted...too much work for me. I'd rather be playing. Also, I expect that WotC will be releasing errata for older monsters once the Essentials Monster Vault hits the...

    D&D 4E 4E Essentials Dungeon Tiles Master Set The Dungeon tile photos

    Will the tiles in this set cover Dungeon Delve? I bought Dungeon Delve but was never ever to collect enough tiles to cover the adventures within. I might pick it up if it provides some compatibility. Naw, I'll probably pick it up anyway.

    Plea for help...reading my Dragon, Dungeon mags

    Thank you! I think this might be just the solution I've been looking for! :D

    D&D is just a game...right?

    Great story. I can relate to that sudden change in mood...and the silence. I had one player actually cry at the table once (smiling, embarrased, but crying). Another excused himself to the restroom, but I could see him fingering his eye on the way. To make a long story short, an NPC...

    Plea for help...reading my Dragon, Dungeon mags

    Thanks. I've already invested in many ebooks from Barnes & Noble; however, I think I read that there is an iPad B&N reader app as well. Hum... On the iPad, do you need to zoom in order to read the pdfs? Is the text fairly readable if you hold it in landscape mode? Just curious. Thanks for...

    The Red Box Smells Weird...

    The Red Box also farts I discovered that if you do it just right....line up the lid carefully and push down suddenly, the box will actually fart. That might explain...something :p
