I really don't know if a D&D classic would be profitable to them in a print format. It is a niche market of an already niche market, and could be viewed as diluting the brand by competing with the current edition. It would be interesting, and to me more likely, to see them port in some older...

Looking at it from an economic stand point, I think it depends on how much revenue they end up generating through DDi. If DDi proves to be financially successful I could easily see more and more focus shifted in that direction. If 4e's sales would prove to be insufficient I would more likely see...

I like the idea of mini challenges, but one thing we may want to consider is maybe just upping the page count on the existing projects and seeing what we could fit in. (I know I didn't finish my project in time, but when I was working on it there were several options I had to scrap in design due...

Well guys it looks like life has forced me to bow out at the last second. I pretty much have the whole thing designed, but there is just no way I can type up the remainder of the material before the deadline. I just want to say good job to everyone who has turned in their submission so far. I...

I could see several different ways to implement floating powers depending on how many degrees of generic you want to encourage. Utility fits best with the completely generic, racial, and the skill training tied powers, but I could also see power source and role based powers especially since they...

Because of the really real world, this has become my situation (at least I have a ton of brainstorming done)

I have this theory that the Elemental power source may end up being the polar opposite of divine, due to the primordials strong tie to the elemental chaos and the implication that they are something very different than the gods. Maybe with a theme of ongoing damage as opposed to healing that...

Divine Guidance is one of the Avenger's possible channel divinity uses as per the DDXP characters.

This info is excellent indeed. Combined with the preview characters I can stat up my Gnoll Avenger now :D

RQ has my vote as does Tharzidun, since my first actual PC is going to be a gnoll avenger dedicated to her. Tharzidun snuck in there since he is the focal point of the game that I am running.

The several long running 2ed and 3ed Ravenloft games I have played in would be to differ with you. It is very easy to run a Ravenlot game as written as long as you remember that it doesn't always have to be about killing something and taking its stuff. Also, Ravenloft is alot more than just...

Glad to see that something is coming along for you. I'm sure that the kinks will work themselves out well in time. Still working on a few myself *looks at combat vs conflict resolution and wonders if he should get a hammer*

I think that when dynamic magic is around it is hard to avoid Mage. To me it is the 300lbs gorilla of dynamic magic design. The system I am working on is broken up into three arts and three material mediums, with each one being progressively harder. If you try to use the 1st art on the 1st...

My comment about completeness was directed at how detailed EP needed to go into the suit specs. I think that as long as the basics are presented in this treatment he should be ok. If he wants to go all out and make this a longer project after the contest then he should by all means include suit...

Only thing which makes me hesitant is I just started teaching high school, and have to go to night classes to get my certification.

I am assuming that as long as the game you are presenting is playable etc. it is complete. It sounds like the basic suit is all that is truly needed, so that should be the only thing you need to include. Even then only the basics are really necessary (suit allows the "magic"). I know my...

Now that the new year has started and things can start, it seems like a good time to mention what I am working on at the moment. Mechanics seem to be going in a more narravist direction while placing a focus on group efforts toward resolving a conflict instead of individuals succeeding at a...

I actually already have a 4ft x 8ft table that one of my wife's friends had donated for her effects shop, but ended up being more than she needed. I am going to use that as the base and build from there (need to shorten the legs for instance). Only problem would be convincing her that we can fit...

My interest in making my group an ultimate gaming table (UGT) has recently been reignited after discovering the one linked in Darkwolf's sig. After digging around for possible plans I have decided that I am going to try and wing it since every groups needs are different, but this also got me to...

Figured it was about time to post my pitch, since details are finally starting to come together enough: Name: Black Magic Blues Genre: Noir/Pulp Summary: Magic is everywhere, but few possess the determination and skill to cultivate the limited powers found in nearly everyone. In the wake of...
