D&D 4e Rules Compendium in online!

I major omission, IMHO.

it doesn't appear to be designed to house the basic rules of the game. Only the options.

I major omission, IMHO.

I'm sure it'll be there eventually.

It's also regrettable that the Paragon Paths contain no links to their powers, so its handling is rather awkward.

The rogue entry,

Alternative Class Features: Thug weapon talent (replaces rogue weapon talent)

There is no definition for this feature (although there is one for the new class feature for Resourceful Warlord)

Also, in the rogue entry, powerS:

"Disheartening strike" "Termination threat" and "Flashy riposte"

That thing is lightning fast for me! At the moment it does appear to be only a Part Of The PHB Compendium, but it's a decent start. Once you've got something up it's much easier to fix things afterwards. An index would be nice, and some more interconnectivity (like d20SRD) wouldn't be amiss either. I could see a future iteration of this being worth paying money to get access.

It's been communicated very clearly in several demos, presentations, and postings that the Compendium is a datbase of character options, not rules of the game in general. Think more along the lines of the Consolidated Lists in WotC's 3.x archive rather than a 3.5 SRD.

Regarding the new character options, I wonder if they are from the upcoming FR Campaign Guidebook or Martial Power.

I can't seem to switch to other pages when I search a keyword that has multiple pages worth of results...

Like if I look up martial, I can see page one, but I can't click on the other page numbers..

Anyone else having this issue?

Agreed. And if this is as intended, then Rules Compendium would be a misnomer. I would consider this a Character Creation Compendium.

Fact: It's called the D&D Compendium, not the D&D Rules Compendium.

It seems to me that this was what they intended...otherwise I would think there would be other types of tabs than the ones I listed even if the content under them wasn't available yet. I could be wrong though.
