The other thread is nigh on 100 pages, and there seems to be a shitload of interest in the game since it came out last week, so you know the drill. Yak it up, chuckleheads.

    That last thread was one of the few threads that was on-topic the whole way through.

    Even the porn thread was derailed eventually.

    This makes an astonishing amount of sense.

    Also I'm kinda going back and forth on Janson getting me the core rules for my birthday

    on one hand I do want 'em, but on the other, my friends weren't exactly enthusiastic about playing after... an hour, so it doesn't give me a whole lot of hope for continued playing

    You owe it to yourself to at least take a quick look through the spell miscast table.


    This table is roughly 100 pages long.


    But that doesn't matter, because only the first 10 or so pages actually have results on them, the other 90 are just blank rows going up to 99999 or so.

    But the 10 pages are actually kinda entertaining.


    Kinda.

    For the powers section of the character sheet. Do...do I just list all 1st level cleric power or what?

    I got my books as a Gift Set from Amazon for $57. All three in a nice slipcase. Just ran my first playtest with the regulars over at CF. I used to hate D&D and after playing so much Star Wars d20 I gave up on the d20 system altogether, moving over to using FATE. However, after running the game tonight, I'm sold on this new edition. Everything I hate about d20 is fixed; the saves, the defense, the attacks, classes and leveling up. Stuff is clearly defined now. We had five players, all who have had never played 4E before and a few who haven't touch D&D in years like me. Within minutes we went through two encounters. It's a good deal, I really like this edition.

    So, I've decided it's not really worth me buying the rules for the game. I'll subscribe to D&D insider so I can get the basic rules and play online games, but my real-life friends aren't nearly as interested in the game as you dudes are so it wouldn't be worth paying for the books. Maybe I'll pick up the PHB for easy character generation, but that'll probably be it.

    I am quite excited about Kovak's campaign, though.

    Man, you'd think they'd figure out you can do this shit on your own. Want to know how to play a musical instrument or how to cook? Okay it with your DM, good, done.

    Want an elderly character? Make your mental scores better than usual and your physical ones worse, is it really that hard to figure out without a book telling you how?
