Yes. Minis will be compulsory in 4e, no exceptions. If you don't use them WOTC will come round and punish you for indulging in badwrongfun. Even the online DI component will require the purchase and use of minis. I've already started scanning and photographing my older minis so I'll be able to...

Has anyone asked if WOTC might offer cats or goldfish instead of ponies? I don't really have enough space at home for a pony right now.

Why is it any sort of suprise to anybody that they are focussing efforts on developing the computer based part of the 4e package for the most popular computer platform?

Now that really is a question that needs answering :D

Same here - although you can add Grand History of the Realms to my shopping list as well.

Darksun, Planescape, Greyhawk

These struck me as being aimed very much at a kiddie demographic rather than the core gamer market. I'm using The Practical Guide to Dragons to help my daughter (age 7) improve her reading.

That looks cool - is there any news on a potential release date? This could be a perfect Christmas gift for any kids interested in getting into RPGs.

This site is quite informative and might be useful.

In no particular order, and without descriptions in most cases... Forgotten Realms - The Moonshaes Forgotten Realms - The Western Heartlands Forgotten Realms - The Dales (also includes the ever present threat of the Zhantarim) Sigil - Gateway to the Planes (a gentle reintroduction to...

Looking back on much of the inane gibberish I've posted here and elsewhere on the worldwide interweb I'm pretty sure I used Wisdom as my dump stat.

Aren't WOTC scrapping D&D rather than risk releasing 4e? I heard somebody say that they were going to use the OGL Traveller rules that Mongoose are planning - so instead of D20 we'll all be playing 2D6 by this time next year. Its the end I tell you, the end! (puts on tinfoil hat and runs away) :D

I think you'll find actually that the usual and most reliable (and IMHO best) option in such circumstances is to blame the French. We Brits always do. :D

Mongoose to publish Traveller. Now that is a suprise. Not sure if it's a good thing, but it's definitely a suprise.

Exactly my thoughts. Very impressed (and glad I've got a dead tree copy on its way as well.)

You've got 150 already. Pity us poor UK/European subscribers - we're still waiting for 149. :(

Count me as another one who came back to RPGs, after a long break, via the Baldurs Gate, Baldurs Gate 2, and Neverwinter Nights route.

Agreed.

Just thought I'd drop by to say I'm really pleased to see this thread still going. Can somebody please drop me a PM or an e-mail when a definitive conclusion is reached. Thanks.
