Great Houserules for D&D 4E

2009-01-27 – 3:22:36

This isn’t going to be a very meaty post, but I’ve just got to link to this guy.  Check out Wyatt’s 4e Houserules (no really, check them out).  There’s a lot of ideas here that I don’t much care for (increasing the number of points for point-buy, Unlimited Item Power and the such), but the [...]

Review: 4E Sorcerer Preview (PHB2)

2009-01-26 – 4:48:11

What’s that? A new class preview from the upcoming PHB2 has been released? Ah, it’s the Sorcerer. Good to have you back. Honestly, I’m a little surprised to see an actual Sorcerer class; I thought they would have simply used warlock pacts.

Role: Striker. You channel powerful magical energy through your body, [...]

Review: 4E Warden Preview (PHB2)

2009-01-5 – 9:33:06

Another preview has been released and with it we get to take another look at what WotC has in store for the future.  I genuinely liked what I saw in the Invoker preview; the Druid preview… not so much.  Alright then, let’s shake hands and meet the Warden.

Role: Defender. You are sturdy and resilient, and [...]

Review: 4E Invoker Preview

2008-12-16 – 21:45:54

Another preview from PHB2 has been released, and I just finished getting a good look at it.  The new class is the Invoker (divine controller) and I have to say, this class is pretty darn nice.  No, really –  I quite like it.  It’s like a wizard in that it makes attack and damage rolls [...]

Review: the D&DI Character Builder Open Beta

2008-12-13 – 4:36:10

Alright, WotC has finally released an open beta build of their character builder.  You can download it for yourself from this page here and give it a spin.
For the purposes of being extra-critical, I’ll be comparing the character builder against Sheepy’s Chargen. This is a low-end system, so performance differences will be evident.  What?  [...]
