I mean this with total respect, but I think you should change your moniker to "The Terminator".


I do almost admire your tenacity at bashing 4th Ed monster design.

Listen! And understand. The 4th edition Bashers are out there! They can't be bargained with, can't be reasoned with! They don't feel pity or remorse or fear, and they absolutely will not stop bashing 4th edition. EVER!

...Until you are dead! They'll come, and they'll rip your *bleeping* PHB out! Let, let go of me!

Great twist on my favourite line in the film – I love when Michael Beihn goes nuts in that scene.

Good man!

I'm still waiting for the post informing the rest of that we're only interested in hack & slash, or playing video games on paper. You just know it's coming.
