    D&D 5E Fabricate: a world change spell

    How about turning this broken thing into the same thing, only never having been broken? A proper wizard will always have supremely maintained stuff.

    The Big Winner of Essentials

    Ha haa! Dangly parts.

    Using the Monk Power Structure with other Classes

    Why not keep the "Hit:" entry the same, and just add that "Minor:" entry? That way, if you decide to attack, and you're successful, you can still produce the benefit if you're pressed for actions.

    Quick Encounter Rooms (Part II)

    Looks like a fantastic idea. Reminds me a lot of DungeonMastering.com, though what you have in mind for Encounter mapping I think is a very valuable tool. If there's a way to combine the output of their monster creation tools with your mapping tool, it'd be a match made in heaven.

    Claws and druids

    What happens when you don't have those two powers? The other beast form power can't be used in an opportunity attack.

    4e PHB2 Errors? Or maybe just issues I have with it...

    Assuming the top quote is possible (you can use an item held in the same hand as a shield if you give up the shield's bonus), would a bard wearing two shields have to worry about swapping at all? He'd have to worry about looking damn silly, but it could technically work, yes? I don't think I'd...

    4e PHB2 Errors? Or maybe just issues I have with it...

    D'oh! Not one single afternoon after I had started this thread, did I see that I had missed a whole section of description in the Shaman Companion. My bard "issues" still stand. While it makes sense that the special "Master" wands wouldn't show up in a PHBX, I don't like the split between PHB...

    4e PHB2 Errors? Or maybe just issues I have with it...

    I'm not sure what else to call them, but I'm noticing some errors in the book already. Some might be simple formatting errors or fixable with errata, but there's one that makes me wonder about the design process. First, the big one: The bard class uses wands as an implement for his powers...

    D&DI Character Builder Beta

    Does whatever NDA prevent people from posting screenshots of the Character Sheet the app produces? I'm interested to see how it looks.

    D&D 4E Classless 4e and adaptation for the Superhero Genre

    Seconded. I'd really like to see more of this!

    Night Watch and MCWoD

    With enough puns, any game system could be Discworldified. ;)

    Night Watch and MCWoD

    ...I take it none of this is even remotely related to Discworld's Night Watch?

    The good, bad and weird of PC names:

    What's wrong with Antonius? That's the name of an ex-PC-turned-villain in a game I'm playing...

    The Compendium is Live

    Do a search for "Warlord" and check out the class entry. Anyone have any idea what "Bravura" Warlord or "Resourceful" Warlord were supposed to be? I wonder how many other vestigial class features still exist in the compendium... (Drat, too slow! Though the theory that the new stuff might be...

    Experience Point Weirdness: Is my math funny or theirs?

    So then if the purpose is to make breaking into a new tier more difficult/significant, why then is the level after reaching a new tier so much easier to attain than other levels in the same tier? It doesn't seem to make much sense, and feels kinda sloppy. The four-level chunks of identical...

    Experience Point Weirdness: Is my math funny or theirs?

    So I'm trying to make a character, and I realized that the experience point values for reaching each level are radically different from 3.X edition. 3.X had an ingenious system, where (level X 1000) was the amount of extra XP you needed to get from one level to the next. I wanted to see if 4th...

    Quarterstaff and TWF

    Why is it more acceptable to strike with both ends of a spear than it is to "flail away" with both ends of a staff? A spear is nothing more than a staff with a single pointy end, and a staff is nothing more than a spear missing a pointy end. A character with TWF weilding either weapon could...

    Amazon Shipping Timing

    I'm in the US, I pre-ordered in April with standard shipping. The book shipped on the 16th... And it still isn't here. No, I'm not bitter at all, no sir. *grumble*

    Northern VA - 4e D&D Worldwide Gameday - UPDATE 10 June

    Chantilly store likely doesn't know what you're talking about... I just came from the Chantilly Games Workshop, and according to their "Game Days" schedule, they've got no plans to participate on June 7th. You might want to double-check with the store owners/managers and make sure they tell...

    Northern VA - 4e D&D Worldwide Gameday - UPDATE 10 June

    Name: Elsidar Role: Player Location: Chantilly Timeslot: Either's fine with me, so long as I get notice of which one's available. Adventure: Into the Shadowhaunt or Escape from Sembia I've no experience DM-ing, so I'd really like to familiarize myself with the rules by playing. Thanks! ~Elsidar
