Thanks guys. Having to get a full case of boosters sounds obscenely expensive at 32 per case. I'll have to watch the secondary markets.:-S

In early 3e I had a recurring dwarf sorcerer NPC named Stonebrother Lomar. All he had was earth- and stone-related spells. It'll be interesting what he will look like once the PHB is released. :)

Magnetic whiteboard, magnetic circles and strips with letters for NPCs (which correspond to the marker next to their miniature on the tabletop) and magnetic strips with the character names. It's been working for 10 years or so. Also you can write on it for oddball stuff.

Ok, let me rephrase: "Since FR is the default setting..."

How does one get a gargantuan promo figure?

That was my first thought. Since FR is the core now, and FR has 4e tieflings, it makes sense they went with the 4e tieflings. I'm sure the 2e tiefling will be available at some point as a variant. Edit: By the way they did open up for horn appearance variations. All true 4e tieflings had the...

Instead of removing the 20 cap, why not create post-20th-level feats that grant superhuman abilities and require a 20 in the relevant stat? Just some ideas: Epic Strength You are capable of superhuman feats of strength. Some examples are shown below: Add your proficiency bonus to Strength...

OMG, are you saying 5e is World of Warcraft? ;) On a more serious note, there were plenty of "vampiric regeneration" type abilities players could get in 2e and 3e which worked in a similar manner (vampiric touch spell is also an old favorite). There's no reason it has to utterly destroy a soul.

Ok, that's too awesome not to allow.

One thing is the Investigation checks for illusions, Strength checks for Earthquake, and Int checks for Maze all require your action. Saving throws seem to be reserved for the initial effect on the caster's turn, and skill/ability checks are used on your turn if there is some residual effect to...

Let's not go down that rabbit hole. 3e did that, and it turned into a morass of charop madness. Feats ought to give new options, not change numbers.

I'm glad that the game supports what should be a common-sense means of beating somebody up - knocking them down then going to town on them.

Glad for that. I was quite perturbed I couldn't copy/paste class features onto my character sheet.

Most of my players have been playing D&D for 20 years or more. They like to reminisce about that old-school bastard DM they used to have back in the day who made people roll 3d6 and take them in order. I don't think any of the 15 or so gamers I know would want to go back to any method of stat...

Doesn't sound like much fun to me...

Uhh, this is how it works. (remainder snipped) Nothing in there about having to declare it before you make the attack roll.

So..... Mages rule, fighters drool? That's the impression I'm getting here.:erm:
