Why does the delivery of the lines sound like the actors were unable to memorize more than five words at a time? Or were the writers just addicted to ellipses?

Been a lot of inflation since 1980 when KotB was released, and a small beer was 1 sp and an ale was 1 ep. I'll bet there are no electrum pieces in the new starter set. The youngs will not know the joy of encountering strange currency. shakes fist, wags beard, falls asleep

I have never roleplayed a banana, but I suppose there's a first time for everything. Back on topic ... if the different dragons are separate species, then why does it seem like they can interbreed with anything with a pulse? Half-dragons, dragonborn ... yet no purple dragon crossbreeds (red +...

Since kobolds have evolved from being little dog men on the goblinoid "growth track" (kobolds, goblins, hobgoblins, bugbears, etc) to having draconic origins ... should kobolds be color-coded? Perhaps competing tribes of kobolds with different draconic patrons... I'm suddenly having this vision...

#1333 After all these years, I'm still fondue Rich's jokes.

Two: Adepticon and NOVA. Edit: Not counting the four I did for my day job, which has nothing to do with gaming.

Are dragons different species? Are we sure? Maybe they've been selectively bred (or engineered) like domestic dogs, which begs the question by whom ... see also Pern.

I pulled that trick on my PCs with a wight wolf once. It was fun -- but you can only pull it off once. Had to go to a dracolich for my undead dragon trick later in the campaign.

It's pretty convenient that their abilities, alignment, likelihood of speaking and using magic, and danger level is all conveniently color-coded like a threat condition chart. What are the in-world and metagame reasons? How would the game change if the bag of Skittles that are dragons didn't...

Yes, but I preplan them.

I ran a great campaign set in Mistledale that ran up and down the Dalelands, plus above and below (using an inverted version of Monte Cooks Banewarrens and City of the Spider Queen). Along those lines, I'll just drop this here for fun:

How many halfling Shires can I exchange it for? Or is that only for Dwarven chain shirts?

Huh. I'm either completely clueless, or they need to market better. Probably the former to be honest.

Sacred cows make the best eating. Sure, it probably isn't Dungeons & Dragons anymore, but Warrens & Wyrms can get by just fine with modifiers and level consistency. And maybe a wound-condition track and armor as damage reduction, and ...

Now that I see this I'm surprised it hasn't happened before -- particularly with modern board game and miniatures games using character "dashboards" fairly regularly. Add ability, spell, and item cards and you have a more tactile and easy to organize game.

It's finally got its second edition.

None of your tinkers, smurfs, or Keebler elves around here, sir. This is a serious place. Players who want to play short characters will be assigned Kender.

All I read here is just jealousy because someone couldn't qualify for Bard Camp.

LOL. I'm now on Wind & Truth and am thinking Sanderson is falling into the Robert Jordan trap of not having an editor willing to tell him to cut stuff.

Do we have stats for a Rumpus? Or just a Dire Rumpus?
