sadly it is much easier to stat 1 creature and do quick modifications (even if they don;t follow all the rules..such as skill pts, etc since most of that doesn't matter in a battle anyways) to them, than it is to create totally unique, well made creatures.. I am very sad that they resorted to...

not sure I imagine 10....the thing is..ANY game we play..we change/house-rule/adhoc whatever we want to make the game fun for the players and 'up-to-code' for what we want... 3, 4, etc..doesn't matter. Overall i do agree that alot of the tenants of 4E are better...but there are some that...

nah Not a fan at all of the 4E astral dread. cover. It lacks texture/depth and looks honestly like a plush toy. Easley's is very nice, even though I don't like his art style that much. (You can tell his art style)...however, Easley's head is awesome for it. Just overall something bothers me...

well but you can do that..you can always pick up someone if you are strong enough and try and use them as a shield. EVen in real life you can do this. ( a friend did this to me during a game of full contact no rules Ultimate frisbee!!! he was huge!!!) heheh the wayi house rule that stuff is...

So did anyone find out at Xperience, if that is really how the layout will be? Even the page with the SKILLS on it had a large colour picture on it that was quite nice. If so I like it. Having a monster or 2 per page, with a nice full colour picture of each is beautiful...and the quality of...

hmmm I prefer the colouration/slight design cahnges of the astral dreadnought in the 3.5E planes book (or was that, the 3.0...either way)..but it's still good. However, does the dragon on the draconomicon remind anyone else of Cloverfield? :) Sanjay

hmm It's funny, the only thing I don't like in 4E, is this: ------ That is the single most important change to this system. I don’t care what you’re playing, whether the party’s wizard, its cleric, the fighter or its rogue, you will always have the option of doing something useful. You will...

hmmm I don't like the fixed hp/level but other than that..sounds cool. will maybe use our own house rule for HD/level ongoing with the 3.5E dice values as needed.... Sanjay

design this design method IS more metagamey, as mentioned, because people will say "that can't possibly kill me so I'll charge in" where as it probably should be more of a risk ala older editions. People jumping off towers, etc...the way we deal with that is regardless of damage, it does an...

stuff there is quite a bit of good stuff that sounds good from what they are trying with 4E. Of course, gotta see if it works, but the ideas are good. * fighters/rogues with their own 'powers' ala Book of 9 Swords * some of the planes design is good * unifying alot of the progressions to make...

!!! WOW. you know...after posting a long thread in the post about house rules, this is very exciting. A built in, and not house ruled system for further class customizations. It won't help with what we want for our classes since our house rules are much more extreme, but this is great news...

House rules.... For us, the house rules that are already being designed, are stuff that are pretty much rules independent. The reason I say this...we did tons of house rules/custom classes/races in 1E, 2E, as well as 3.XE. Many of them in 3.XE were done without knowing what the official rules...

great thing about this the great thing about this...once again, it's easy enough to house rule. YOu want explosions to be true spheres....just say that they are. Not hard, not a problem. Sanjay

yeah oh yeah, the saw tower was very extreme The context was someone who was watching and torturing them... hence I used SAW as the main idea for it. I also like puzzles in games. The thing is, just like in real life, puzzles CAN help people learn real problem solving, espec if the puzzles...

puzzles are great IF they are done right. MY players like them but as long as they are in theme. For example, here's a puzzles I did that they liked: They came across an old wizard laboratory. There was information in torn up notes that I gave them, that said this room had access to gates...

hahah Everyone, I gaurantee that you aren't the slowest gamers ever. In the campaign I DM, 2.5 years so far..friends just got to level 6 last saturday. We use a slower progression chart...not as slow as 2E but much slower than 3.XE. :) Sanjay

hehe actually i am not a GW fanboy.... Point is, I still think the markets are (currently) somewhat independent. I don't know any, or have i seen, in any hobby show hardcore GW players moving to the other games, or vice versa. I do have a warhammer army (lizardmen, I like dinos) but I haven't...

combined I use both... Since I try to make the settings as detailed as I can....there will be stuff there -- natural animals/plants, monsters, other people, etc that are weaker, equal, and stronger than you are. What I won't do is purposely let something stronger attack them unless i have a...

hehe funny thing..i kinda agree with that sarcasm.. i'm currently sculpting a model for the june 2008 golden demon toronto :) hehehe :P :P :P :P :P :P :P Sanjay

the difference i think the difference is..the people who like warhammer (and 40k), they like modelling, etc. I don't know a single warhammer player who would rather buy prepainted, low quality models vs the nicer ones that are available by GW and especially forgeworld. Yes, it takes more time...
