Good article. The same cannot be said of the various comments, however.

The Dark Sun podcasts conclude with episode #6 (direct link). This podcast series was far too short. :sad:

I'm hoping for a new setting.

Ah, I didn't know that. :)

The Meazel is from 2e's MC3 (Forgotten Realms).

The setting that's closest to "Hate it" for me is Dragonlance, with which I have a "Love/Hate" relationship - "Love" being Taladas, "Hate" being Ansalon. I haven't come across a TSR D&D setting that I disliked completely, though I haven't seen them all.

Do you mean this thread? Mearls tunes in at post #36. There's also this here on ENWorld.

Warden's Grasp is a close burst 5.

Episode #5 (direct link) and the character for sheet for "Two-Coins" are up! EDIT: Two-Coins has a paragon tier feat (Fight On)? :confused:

I can give you their domain names; more details aren't available in the printed material for Birthright (from where they originate). Erik: Nature's Rest Ruornil: The Silver Lands Sera: The Marketplace Eternal They're all from the 2E Birthright Campaign Setting, where they've been dead for 1500...

For me it's almost perfect, even if my DM loves throwing higher-level encounters at us. And combats with just 3 players definitely feel more "swingy" IME. Almost is because I often roll low when I play - and I'm even using Gamescience dice! But that's not 4e's fault. :)

Actually, Kalak died right in the introductory adventure that was included in the original box. So instead of letting the characters watch Kalak get killed by some NPCs - before those NPCs proceed to ruin the setting -, the characters just hear about it, and the setting won't be ruined? ;) :D

I'd treat it as "Melee 1 or Ranged 5". EDIT: Ninja'd!

This. In 2E they had the Somatic Concealment proficiency, now in 4E there's the Bluff skill. (Which has been mentioned in today's Ampersand, DDI sub required.) What, you haven't seen those yet? Okay, the "Dragonbewbs in Darksun" posts might have been more prominent... :D

You can reverse-engineer the characters using the Character Builder, analysis of released character sheets, preview info, knowledge of design principles & patterns, et cetera. (E.g. racial bonuses to skills have always been +2 so far.) I don't claim that my list is perfect, and as you can see...

Episode #4 (direct link) and the character sheet for Tuzul are up!

I do understand that (and should have mentioned that in my post, I guess). I don't fault WotC for not using their crystal ball to include future updates. ;) Unfortunately, it is erroneous by the current rules, so I included it for the sake of completeness.

Fair enough. Some things aren't clear-cut. You're right, those are my typos for a change. I corrected my summary above. I compared it with the sheet for Mantis Eaglehawk (from the PA Dark Sun podcasts) who wields an iron bastard sword with a proficiency bonus of +3. (The masterwork stuff would...

Episode #3 is up. Direct link. We're also getting the character sheet for Mantis Eaglehawk. :)
