Defiling vs. Preserving. All right, how about this idea. (forgive me if it's been thought of before) The key difference is that wizards draw power from the land BEFORE casting a spell. Unlike the rest of D&D worlds where the energy is already considered 'at the ready'. So make the standard...

Actually, I was thinking more in the line of "You're not allowed to go back to OGL even if we recend the GSL to you." court. A way back from the edge of oblivion if such a situation developed?

You know, something just occurred to me. You should make a new company to run the 4th edition licence, and keep the old company identity pure OGL. In fact, reading the GSL... I see nothing right off that prevents the rights to a 4th edition setting being sold off to a 3.5 edition design...

NOT ALL RACES ARE DONE! Races All races are played pretty much as seen in the Player's Handbook, with a few historical modifications. No modifications were made that change game mechanics, since this setting was made to properly use the player's handbook as written. The one exception is the...

And yes, I'm just thinking out loud. Okay, the world premise is based on the following points: - Everything in the players handbook is the norm. The setting reflects the races, classes, and feel of 4th edition as much as possible out of the player's handbook. - We allowed the Warforged in...

<looks around> Nobody?

I forget, why are we using email addys instead of just dumping it on a webpage? I'm dense that way, yanno? ffmassmail@gmail.com Thanks!

Wuxia CLASS TRAITS Role: Balanced combat specialist, allowing for special abilities based on unarmed and improvised weapons. Power Source: Chi. You have learned to focus the power within your own body to allow perfect strikes and balanced defenses. You can even use it to create near-magical...

Okay, the idea is to publicly, and jointly, go through the development of a character class for 4th edition DnD. I'm thinking we make the wuxia: A hand to hand martial artist based on the following concepts: - It should have high maneuverability on the battlefield, especially using...

Guys. Look like tempers are starting to get frayed. Might want to take a deep breath and count to ten. Seriously, it comes down to this: The rules are the rules, and if you don't like them, change them, or play another game, or stare at them until they change. Either way you go, the last...

I think the issue of players beating holes in walls to move through the dungeon misses a basic flaw in the plan, WAY before HP or hardness. Jake Fighter: Okay, guys! These mauls and pics should make quick work of this wall, especially with the Wizard using Ray of Frost and Scorching Burst to...

Why? Doesn't make it any less viable. And some of us got the books on the 6th, and are still figuring it all out, you know? I don't tend to run games without having a full understanding and overview of the rules first. That's one of my jobs as the GM: Understand the rules enough to make...

Can I have a whack at the idea of Hit Points, Healing Surges, and how they effect role play? First, I think people are forgetting a basic truth of both Hit Points and Healing Surges: The CHARACTERS don't know they exist. Period. That being said, they don't KNOW they're totally restored...

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAhahahahah... <wheeze> ... <chorkle> ... <snort> Okay. I'm entertained. Where do I send the check?

Fighter: Aha! I just marked you! Monster: So what? **Whacks rogue flanking him** Fighter: You have to attack me. Monster: Why? **Pummels paladin coming over to surround him** Fighter: Because I marked you. If you don't, it will be harder to hit anyone else but me. Monster: Hmmm, how exactly? I...

You might want to find a place to re-release that old set of tools, Auld! I honestly have been out of RPGs for the last couple of years, and the old system died, along with the copy of that toolkit. Honestly, I'm glad people got use out of it. I made those tools especially for making the...

I myself, I only got to meet Gary once. In passing, and really barely said 'hi' to each other at the time. I regret I didn't get to mention how he made 10 years of my life just a touch more bearable during some hard times. We haven't published much recently, and in fact, we've moved on to...

Yup, all is good. I still build fantasies, but now digitally. Look me up as Foolish Frost in Second Life some time. SecondLife.com

I'm not in publishing anymore, but have to agree with Grump. Page Plus makes a VERY good layout software. I even use it for laying out graphics and textures for reexport and processing in an image editor. Solid function all the way around, and does not confuse new users with cryptic and...

And since it's up here, I'm pulling it down in mine. <waves> How's tricks, kids?
