    Highest level you've played

    Basic D&D: 3 Expert D&D: 14 Companion: None Masters: None Immortals: None 1E: 8th (which makes me sad; I thought I was cooler than that until just now) 2E: never played 3E: DM'd 15th (played - maybe 6th?) 4E: 5th, and a paragon one-shot just to test the waters Now, if your question was which...

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder page count change

    Hopefully those 63 pages satisfy the elusive "How to Fix 3e High-level Play" commitment Paizo, by direct edict of their CEO Ms. Stevens, gave to the gaming community. Cuz I'll tell ya ladies, I just haven't seen it. WP

    Changeover Poll

    Bingo - assuming the new players buy the books at a rate equal to or greater than the previous customer base. (In other words, the newbies better have a couple DaveMage types in their group. :) ) That's the question on the success of 4e from a business side: Did it, will it, has it attracted...

    Edena, are you paying attention? Now that is humor. Well struck, Sir Wilder. Well struck. WP

    Right. There's 4E, and there's 3E. Everything else: Radar blips. Perhaps dearly loved and cuddled blips, but blips nonetheless.

    The end of all edition wars?

    I know, I know. I feel the cruel daggers of shame much in the way Augustus felt them on the floor of the Senate. WP

    The end of all edition wars?

    Dammit. Of course you're right. That's going to annoy me all day - I friggin' teach Roman history. WP

    The end of all edition wars?

    Times change, David. Times change. I bet you'd be surprised to know which edition I prefer. ;) But in the spirit of this thread and general EN World harmony, I shall cease and desist such blathering until such time as they are required (e.g., when I'm really bored). WP

    The end of all edition wars?

    I'm onboard. I, Wisdom Penalty, who have suffered the scorn and scars of the Edition War, mostly due to my lack of wisdom, do hereby relinquish my sword. I shall return to farming in the manner of the great Cicero. Four bans will do that to a guy. Even a fat, dumb guy. Rel...do you hear me...

    Why do you keep playing 4e?

    I love it because, for some reason unknown to man, the fact I enjoy playing the newest edition causes no shortage of angst and anger amongst those who refuse to do so. I'm an ass that way. Plus, it's a pretty kick-butt system. WP

    Absofrigginlutely. Heck, the fact 4e moved closer to 1e/OD&D/BECM is a huge positive as far as I'm concerned. I realize others may not agree, but - really - who cares? Play what you like. Don't crap on what other people play. Drink your milk. WP

    Weather Generator?

    Wow. I find it hard to believe there's not a weather generator out there that gives the moon phase, a high/low temp, precipitation, and winds within a tidy calendar format. There are a couple neat ones linked from there, but some have an odd 7-day cap on the result they spit out. Is this truly...

    Poll of Polls

    Here's what I hope they learned: (1) We should have kept Dungeon and Dragon as paper magazines. (2) We should have kept the core races and classes the same. (3) We should have had our licensing goobledegook in order and ready. (4) We should have had DDI ready in time with the release of the...

    Poll of Polls

    You are that great rarity, Shadeydm. Not only do your infantile posts bring nothing to the table, but you walk up to the table take things away. Truly amazing. I'm not sure who or what this C4bal is...but if I know you're against it, I just may join. Wiz

    You are quickly replacing BryonD as my Nemesis. Good day, sir. I said GOOD DAY. W-to-the-P

    Poll of Polls

    Maybe I'm naive, but I think Mike is seriously interested in whether he should be seriously interested in EN World polls. If I were someone who has issues with WotC, I'd consider this as a sign that my voice is being heard. I voted that I didn't vote in this poll, by the way, because I didn't...

    So, we fought a level 26 dragon...

    Night - Having never played Epic (or Paragon levels, for that matter), I'm very interested in reports like this and I thank you for sharing. I admit I'm a bit concerned about your statement, however, that the epic fight did not seem too much different than lower level fights. While we are...

    Who's definition? Yours? Perhaps. I don't necessarily equate the failure of my hobby to the company (or companies) that provide materials for me to play, provided I have more than enough materials/imagination to continue play within my group. Different strokes. Or they do one better: Buy stuff...

    Status of D&D Game Table?

    Call me crazy, but I'm of the belief all those tools (Visualizer, Game Table, Character Builder, etc.) should have be released along with the new edition in some format - even an early alpha. If I'm a business (WotC) that has failed repeatedly in one area (digital initiatives) then I make...
