Hmmm...

I bought my wife a Kindle and she just got it about a week ago. I haven't really been into ebook readers, but it's a very cool little box. Pros: ----- - Wireless store is great for impulse buying. No need to mess with other computers and cords. If you want HP Lovecraft, you type it in and...

Superw00t! This is really great news for everyone. That advanced players guide alone may allow me to convince my significant other to play 4e (no barbarian! how can there be no barbarian?!?). :)

Congrats! I hope you got ready early. When my son came early we didn't have anything for him yet... So it was a whole lot of running around to buy a crib, blankets, etc.

The Epic level handbook wasn't for everyone either. But a lot of people enjoy it. I didn't have a problem with it, but the ruleset for epic play has always been so tacked on and annoying that I've never really been interested in it. That may change with 4e.

I think you ALWAYS have 2 at-will powers, regardless of your level. My guess is that those at-will powers can be of your level or lower, and you can trade out those powers at level-up. Note that the making higher-level characters seems to apply to any character from level 2 to 30... so 2...

Dear DnDInsider, You've recently added a countdown timer, a daily art preview, and three excerpts from the 4e core books per week to your dndinsider.com site. I must say that I am terribly upset about this, and I insist that you return to your previously unscheduled, unorganized, and...

Okay, I see the point of getting multiple PHBs. I have three 3.5 PHBs, and having a few really speeds up play. But TWENTY of them? What possible purpose could you have for twenty PHBs? How do you use that many?

This song practically doesn't even need to be changed to work... "Dear Wizards, you made many, many 4e fans. I realize, of course, that it's no shame to be a fanboy. But it's no great honor either! So, what would have been so terrible if I stuck with OD&D?" If I were a grognard, Ya ha deedle...

Barbarian had better not be a defender. It's not a tank class, it's a striker class.

Or the astral sea could be a 2-dimensional sea. And planes float on the sea's surface, but cause the whole sea to sag down around them. As an astral ship approaches a plane, it gets pulled down by the current of the sagging astral sea into the spherical plane. Kind of like a 2-dimensional...

Oh, I remember. Sometimes, when I close my eyes, I can still hear them shrieking. AEEAIAIIEIEIEIAIEEEEEEEE! http://www.enworld.org/archive/index.php/t-39880.html I guess I can get into Emo-kai a little more than batmen with tools like Batman who ride bats, while dressed like Borat in a mankini.

:) You just exactly described the Combat Pad from Gamemastery that I mentioned earlier... It definitely has speeded my game up as well. As for the current problems, I'd say that the new player introduction is not really a problem. An inexperienced group needs some time to coalesce... To...

There may be some truth to that. I find myself in charge of telling people who goes next even with the combat pad sometimes. Group monster init is the only way to go though.

Init cards are fine, but they don't help people to anticipate when they are going to go next. They REALLY help the DM. But the DM is not the problem in most cases. With the init boards, the order is in front of everyone and you can get some parallelism when people plan their turn ahead of...

I should write these columns. Gamer Lifestyle by Failey McFailerson. Mass Effect! Teh awesome. You shoot, you run, you get girl on alien girl love stories. Did you hear the new Star Trek movie has that guy from Shaun of the Dead? And that other guy from Harold and Kumar? And that guy...

If you didn't buy Giants of Legend in the case, you were really rolling the dice. Straight from the case, the Huges were really well distributed. People were starting to buy the boosters based on weight. And there was a noticable different between some of the huges in terms of weight.

The poster pics look like crap compared to the earlier sets. And you know that those are the best versions of the minis that they could get. The quality of the miniatures is quite definitely down from some of the earlier sets, and it really annoys me. Especially since I would like to get some...

Wow. A guy posts asking for help and the response he gets is: "Don't focus on combat so much." Real helpful. Combat speed tips: - Combat Pad from Gamemastery. Once you roll initiative, you can put the ordering out there for everyone to see. That alone will speed things up dramatically...

I am a developer. I understand the difference between content being there and functionality being there. When I said that I hadn't noticed any changes, I meant that I hadn't noticed any functionality changes. But, if you say it's working, I'll take your word for it. Good luck on the upcoming...
