Likely not feasible but is there a chance of a change list being posted at some point from 3rd to 4th edition, to help those with physical copies of 3rd to decide whether they need to get the physical 4th when released? Feels the move from one edition to another matters a touch more this time than ones in the past with the SRD scrub?

I hope to see some half-page art on pages 44 and 180.

And it doesn't seem like Jeremy signed his Kobold, though anyone seeing his werewolf would see the style and think, "Yeah. That's the same guy."

Posted as in available for download? It already is in the downloads page. Still needs some work I heard but it’s there if you want to see it as it is now.
No, I know. That’s what I’m celebrating! :)

Not all artists sign their art; many of our "classic" pieces are unsigned.

I thought Magic Missile had to have it's name changed? I'm glad it didn't!

I just want to thank you Solo for fixing the 49 year old travesty of coin weights!

Re: R108 Final Task List

I'm up to about page 100 now plodding through monsters. It's been an enjoyable read, though reading Magic Jar felt like reading a long Article complete with subsections in a legal text. With this in mind, I was wondering about combining stats for giants and dragons say into 1 table each and offering the description with greater brevity. For example, most giants throw rocks - just the size and damage varies. Some monsters were described as evil in a game without alignment. Who's to say all Kobolds are evil?

Optional rules for an appendix (or maybe I'll hammer out a supplement?? for 4th ed. :lol: ):
- encumbrance - characters carry # of items equal to constitution (-2 for hobbits?)
- larger beasts / elephants / boat - encumbrance just eyeballed by GM (ruling over rules)
- distances - very far (5 or more), far (4), distant (3), close (2), and nearby (1) - miniatures can give a rough idea of marching order and combat with out graph paper (if you need squares, the number above indicate the number of squares away)
- speed - set as very fast (x2), fast (x1.5), medium (x1), slow (x0.75), very slow (x0.5), immobile (x0) - (if you need graph paper - x1 means 1 space of movement)

Anyways, I'll give a full list of edits (and comments) when I get through the whole beast.
