Poor Alliane, she can't ever catch a break. Dorn is one bad mother. It makes you wonder how Wulf got along before he had another dwarf in the party to watch his back. Oh yah, he had Halma. Never mind.

The promo copy of Heroes of High Favor caught up with me the other day. (With my usual timing I moved out the day before it arrived. Took a while to get it from my old roommates.) Boy, its jam packed with dwarven goodness. Its enough to make any player consider playing a dwarf. The Tunnel Fighter and the Battlerager were particularly cool, and you've made me look at the craft skills in a new light. The only thing I felt it was missing was a few example dwarven gods. DMs aren't always interested in developing non-human pantheons and a player can always use a tool for pushing his DM in the right direction. Having seen Dwarves I'll be sure to pick up Half-Orcs. Here's hoping that Halflings is next on the list, I want to see the Lowsy-No-Good prestige class, the Stinking-Lying prestige class, and their ilk.

Back to the meat-grinder - ouch poor Aliane. I've picked up Heroes of High Favour Dwarves and it's good stuff, shame there's some excellent competition out there to distract folks. Still I'm looking forward to the half-orc book if it's of the same quality...
:cool:

I'm starting to think it's better, actually. The writing is weirder and wilder, Andy's illustrations are even better, and to wrap it all up, Brad did a super job on the cover.

ouch that had to hurt!

So that must be the controversial incident involving the
"grappled uncanny dodge bonus, Not!"
eh?!

I have to say I am getting concerned about Wulf's health!
That seemed pretty close, and of course it's not over yet!

Not to put pressure on wulf but he can't die an untimely death, he has to survive to the end of the game/campaign.
Also I still miss Halma...I like Shorty but where was he?
But then worrying about getting killed can dampen your fun...The Most fun we had recently was a crazed battle where a certain 2 of or characters didn't care if they died or not.
One of them even succeeded!

I am excited about these new books of yours!

Also, if Keldas finds those slippers of spider climbing are 'chapping his ass' maybe he is wearing them wrong.
Wulf should point out they go on his feet!! ;)

Keep up the great work! keep em coming!!

Excellent update, thanks Wulf!

Didn't dinkledog give you a cover bonus on your save vs lightning, what with being buried under a steel predator and a dire bear? What a RBDM ;)
 

I always feel bad when Alliane gets hurt or killed. She's always seemed like a graceful, innocent follower, who always gets yanked into terrible danger by people who she should know better than to trust.

That, and my mental picture of her is of a hot female elf. Such a waste.

...She is hot, right?
 

In what's sure to spark board wars, I went the opposite way. In a grapple, a player loses their dex bonus to outside influences. What with being held by a steel predator who wanted everybody to get caught by the lightning bolt, it didn't seem unfair to deny reflex saves.

After discussing it, in the future, we'll go with a spot check to notice something is coming in from outside. Wulf will probably never succomb to another of those again. :rolleyes: At least until the preds go the extra step and pin him. :D
