It’s a little strange reviewing material released by Wizards of the Coast for 4th Edition D&D. At first, I could compare the material to 3rd Edition and make some very insightful judgments based sheerly upon that. Since then 4th Edition has truly sunk into to my (and hopefully your) psyche as a truly superior tabletop [...]

This is just a compilation of house rules I found on a thread called “What are your house rules?” where people listed short and sweet summaries of what kind of stuff they do in their D&D campaigns. Here, I’m going to break down why I think some are pretty nifty, to pretty mediocre, to pretty stupid.

It’s understandable to see how they would fill new Player’s Handbooks and Monster Manuals, but another DMG? Read the review to find out how they do it…

I peruse the D&D forums a fair amount. There’s a lot on mix-max theories, home-brewed rules, and arguments why something new introduced in a supplemental book or magazine is lame or breaks the game. It’s a lot of people obsessing over theoretical nonsense instead of what makes the game actually fun or interesting. Forum Fridays brings you the gems that I manage to find in the desolate wasteland that is the official D&D forums.

Dave Chalker (calls himself “The Game” on this website) has taken it upon himself to translate d20 Modern into 4th Edition D&D’s set of rules, using the minimization of options as his guideline for gameplay. See what he’s been up to in this review!

A lot of people complained that the Fight Weapon Talents included in the original Player’s Handbook were far inferior to Martial Power’s Tempest Technique. This Dragon Magazine article aims to redeem such a mistake.

Beautiful and obvious. This class is conceptually what the 3rd Edition Ranger was. An archer that wields the power of nature on his side, shooting arrows and wielding magic. I loved the classic Ranger. One of my favorite characters ever was part of a Ranger-Paladin duo. I’m glad to see it return in spirit with a name that I dig a lot

Feel like you need a little more oomph for your cleric? Look no further than Dragon Magazine’s Cleric Essentials!

In this newest issue of Dragon Magazine, they’ve released an article that details a lot more feats that are just for the Warden. I’m glad they did this because I was pretty underwhelmed by what was featured for them in the Player’s Handbook 2. They also added a few new powers and anew paragon path. Oh, and there’s some advice on how to play a Guardian effectively.

Disclaimer: Be warned, there is heavy nerd content to be read ahead. I try to not lose you in the lingo being thrown around. If you’ve played roleplaying videogames, then you should be able to understand what I’m talking about. If you’re familiar with D&D, you should be able to follow all of it very easily. If you don’t fall into those two categories, I hope I don’t lose you in the next few paragraphs.

So what is Pathfinder? Is it a barbarian flick that came out a few years back? Well, yes. Let me be more specific. What is The Pathfinder Roleplaying Game? Let me tell you all about it.
