1,001 ways they could screw up 4th Edition D&D...

[Razz]

16. When 4E is released

 

[Szatany]

17. 4e is not written - it's passed on orally.

 

[Agamon]

18 through 30

 

[Slife]

17. 4e is not written - it's passed on orally.

18. 4e is not delivered by mail. Instead it is eaten up by robins, flown to its destination and regurgitated into the players' mouths.

19. They bring back the old saving throw system. Paralyzation-poison-death magic, don't fail me now!!! Or was that petrification-polymorph?

20. Extremely vague, or needlessly fluffy spell descriptions a la 1E and 2E.
21. They decide to give credence to the likes of Jack Chick.
22. Mazes and Monsters inspiration being used in earnest.
23. The Sniper from an earlier thread of mine becomes Core material.

25. Wish spell is renamed Pwned
26. level 1 renamed to n00b
27. Epic is called l33t

 

[Darkness]

25. Wish spell is renamed Pwned
26. level 1 renamed to n00b
27. Epic is called l33t

I think h4x or cheat should be the name for wish; pwned is probably more appropriate for directly combat-related powers.
