I tried, but couldn't find a good link. And given the location at which I have my games, we have no computer access.

I dislike 4.0 though it makes it easier for both the DM and the Players. 3.5 I think is better.

Yeah... 4.0 deviated a bit too far from the original game, in my opinion. The addition of so many core classes, changes as to how the entire combat system works, the skill system, "Paragon Paths" instead of prestiege classes...

It does indeed make things easier for newer players, but for those of us that still have 2.0 books it's a little saddening. And I remember when feats were FEATS, not just passive increases to numeric effects.

I love the core wizard class and thus I was disheartened by the inability for the 4.0 wizard to specialize in one school of magic. As a matter of fact, I disliked how they handled the entire spell system in 4.0. We've had "Spells Per Day" since the dawn of time!

And what's the deal with the elf's favored class being ranger? In all of my books it's always wizard...

Sorry about that...

1-500 of 1675. Even if you never played any D&D or D&D-derived RPGs, you'll likely still get a laugh out of some of these.
