Going forward, we intend to sync up our DDI updates with our printing schedule whenever possible. Also coming next month we have some improvements on how equipment works in the Character Builder, a summary page, a fix to the A4 printing issue, ritual book information, and we hope to have a new way to view your characters when offline.

An Introduction to ZEITGESIT A short, 2-page introduction to the ZEITGEIST adventure path for D&D 4E and PATHFINDER RPG.
Are you a Pathfinder designer? EN Publishing is looking for someone to write its Pathfinder version of the ZEITGEIST adventure path. It's a long-term paid freelancing arrangement, requires knowledge of both Pathfinder and D&D 4E, and ideally previous publishing credits. You'll be basing the Pathfinder versions on the 4E manuscripts, but actually rewriting to suit the different inherent assumptions between the two rulesets. You'll need to be available to start almost immediately.
