Aww, I would have like to see the minotaur being immune to Maze. Small touches like that help make the world (and monsters) come to life.

I'm a regular DM. Been DM'ing 2nd edition, 3rd edition, 3.5, 4E, Pathfinder, and many other systems. I have three expectations of D&D Next: - Easy to prep for. - Easy to run. - Fast combats. And two honourable mentions: - Fun magic items disconnected from expected PC "power" (in 4E and 3E it...

This looks very cool.

I choose: Spell Compendium, Magic Item Compendium, Player's Handbook 2 and Dungeon Master's Guide 2.

Great stuff! 5E is looking better and better :)

Reading the Zombie-entry in the bestiary, I miss the hilarious (and unique) zombie trait from 4E: Zombie weakness. If a zombie is hit with a critical hit, it is instantly destroyed. Bring back zombie weakness!

5E will be an epic fail ... * If it isn't easy for DMs to prep and run * If it doesn't deliver a game that "feels" like D&D * If it doesn't allow for a high degree of PC customization Everything else is trivial, IMO. It will differentiate itself from Pathfinder by have a much lighter DM workload.

I remember when DM'ing 3.5, one of the most effective breakings of disbelief I ever experienced was when players decided to jump off houses and towers, taking falling damage instead of trying to climb down, etc. 'Cause when you have 200 hit points, falling hardly matters. One of my players even...

I don't get this. I've been running a 4E campaign for the last 2 years, and I've used minions maybe ten times. As a DM, it is extremely easy to not use them at all. A game that has minions as an optional tool for the DM, that would be a deal breaker for you? Bizarre. It strikes me that there are...

I really like minions, especially when the party is infiltrating/sneaking an enemy camp/fortress/city, etc. Before, it was basically impossible to one-shot a guard with non-magical means, as the guard sometimes/usually had more hp than the player's could deal with in 1 attack (even with sneak...

Great stuff! Keep it comming.

My bad. Just found the item I was looking for (Necklace of Prayer Beads). There are many cool items in Mordenkainen's. Kinda wish 4E items were like this to begin with.

Mordenkainen's is now up in the online Compendium, but I can't find the items in the Character builder (when I search for an item from that book in the marketplace, it comes up with nothing). Am I the only one?

Is the book out yet on DDI? I tried to look for it, but couldn't find it. Also: What is your one favourite item from Mordy's Emporium?

Thank you, very nice! Watch semi-rude video of girls, buy attractive Nike shoes, very cheap, buy, thank you. (Seriously: the character looks nice.)

Yes please!

Wonderful! This video made smile. "I wanna be a cloaker."

I remember the Dancing Hut of Baba-Yaga as a 2nd edition module. It was really cool. Looking forward to this one as well. A write-up as Baba Yaga the Archfey also seems both cool and useful. Finally some epic-tier love! For this adventure is meant for epic-tier play, isn't it?

How lethal is combat, and how more "powerful" are high-level / experienced characters compared with low-level / experienced characters?

I've been running a campaign since late 2009. The party is currently lvl 16 and it's been a blast. Throughout all the hum-drum of late, WoTC mistakes, DDI fiascoes, Pathfinder selling like gangbusters, there are only two things that have had an impact on my campaign: * Combat takes too long. *...
