You get all the art though, whenever a book comes out there is a download to get all the art. Sometimes even art that wasn't included in the book.

I would say for myself I would be happy with a rule-reference book and everything else goes DDI. When it comes to making characters, setting up campaigns, etc. I find DDI much easier. Probably only other books I would get would be the few campaigns settings I enjoy, ie; Dark Sun.

SIGIL!!!!!!!!!! That is all :p

I for once was able to call it for something WoTC would implement in the future. Been hoping for non-magical rituals for a while now. Overall, I like them, and Healing Surges is a good cost I think for these (especially given how open Healing Surges are). I hope there is a wide-grouping of them...

Also using Chrome, and yeah working perfectly.

Besides for the manner they got the forums listed under I am quite happy with the new forum. I hope they put in custom theme backgrounds later.

Fiery_Dragon basically sums it up with the degree of stuff. But I am sure most gamers going have interest in the other stuff. That is one of the things I enjoy about FanExpo is that I am not just going there for one thing I like, I am going for TONS! of things I like. The Silver Snail sale, is...

That should be the bottom line for every single post in threads like these. Since when you sum it up, that is the important thing, to have fun. :) As for myself, the D&D edition I am having the most fun with is 4e. I find beyond the rules stuff that has been spoke about above, with ease of...

I dunno the feeling of doing what it takes to survive, keeping your head low to avoid the Sorcerer-Kings and what not is a perfect match for Unaligned. I think Unaligned vs. Evil could be the ballpark for 4e Dark Sun. 4e Evil can copy order quite well, given the text talks about:

I think going beyond more company decision type stuff. Another good reason for edition change is to help develop the fanbase and open it up. One edition may cater to a certain group, another edition caters to another group. So by bringing out new editions you can spread the core concept of that...

That is much more a advice one then anything else. It basically is a brief blurb on some of the benefits of promoting resolution between PCs during vignettes.

*Nods* Quite so, I am just going crazy with pondering for now. Since well, till we get our first true preview, all we are got is what the developers say they are doing. I so hope next month we get a preview, we got a Artificer playtest a whole year before Eberron, so come on something similar :D

Yeah I am also throwing my hat in with KM. I want to see Dark Sun to really showcase how different it is, and hopefully become a standard for future settings, that each push their field of fantasy. That won't stop me from going, "hmm... what if" for fun though :p

For myself these are just fun thought experiments. We have no clue what there will be, so might as well discuss all different kinds of possibilities just to generate discussion and ideas. Hell, even after we do know it can still be thought experiments for each group's version of Dark Sun. So I...

I quite enjoyed this chapter. I am glad to see narrative and collabrative storytelling is getting a focus in DMG2. The chapter basically sums up tons of the methods and ideas I use in my gaming, so this will be something extremely useful to take ideas from, and recalibrate sessions and ideas I...

Hmm, my Fey would take a Dune approach to it. Have them be obsessed with body-water. Shedding a tear for instance during a agreement shows a sign of commitment, to give a random example. Takes the odd items fey obsess over and gives it a Dark Sun twist. For Shadowfell, hmm... Well I always...

How are NPCs/Enemies handled? Are they basically done up like PCs and the GM has to determine on his own how balanced they are, or is there some amount of measuring in the mechanics?

Well the said that while it takes place before the Prism Pentad that it is possible for that to be a eventual conclusion if you wish. Perhaps however they talk about minor races or whatever. They state that if you wish to introduce Dray that the plot of Prism Pentad could be going on as one...

Normal addictions can be covered using the Disease rules quite well I think, just need to tweak it a bit. Defiler addiction I dunno, that will depend on how they handle Defilers on a whole. Poisons could be made using poison-based rituals (like alchemy brewing). Then delivered using whatever...

Some of mine: While they obviously will have it. I of course am waiting to see Thri-Keen. I hope that the Spellplagued, Dragonmarked, etc. of Dark Sun are Psionic Wild Talents. I hope they won't just be pushed off as Psionic Multi-Class. I am curious to see whether or not they will have new...
