Hope You Weren’t Expecting That PHB2 Review

2009-04-18 – 3:59:49

I’ve decided to stop keeping the people that check here regularly (all four of them) on the edge of their seats and state that I’m just not going to continue the PHB2 review.  To bring it to a nice close I’ll simply state that if you liked Martial Power and the core 4e rulebooks, then [...]

The Player’s Handbook 2: Page-by-Page (Part 1)

2009-03-18 – 6:18:39

I got my hands on the PHB2 today.  There’s too much for me to cover in the whole book, so I’ll be breaking it down into three or four segments.  So far I’ve only really gotten a look at the races and racial paragon paths, so that’s what’s going to be presented here in the [...]

Review: 4E Shaman Preview (PHB2)

2009-02-9 – 13:55:54

WotC is bringing Shamans into D&D.  I like Shamans in M:tG (see picture, love this guy), so I’m hoping for the ability to play a big fatty in round four without paying its mana cost.  Let’s see if they deliver…

Role: Leader. Leans toward either defender or striker as a secondary role.
Power Source: Primal. The [...]

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, [...]
