2024-04-29, 04:34 PMWell, WOTC had one under development, and indeed the PHB1 contains advertisements for it (with the groanworthy pun to add anohter PC to your game, as...7 replies | 260 view(s)

2024-04-24, 07:07 AMThat's a red herring. There's nothing about barbarians or clerics that makes them worse at social skills or stealth (resp.) than other classes. Barbs...593 replies | 26521 view(s)

2024-04-24, 05:45 AMCertain parts of the game are much more DM-dependent than other parts. That is why we're hearing this complaint about the rogue, but not about (e.g.)...593 replies | 26521 view(s)
