I have no idea what anyone else here thinks of it, but I've been playing and enjoying X-Wing for a while now. The scale isn't as large as a lot of other games, but the ruleset is very straightforward. Most ships in the game are at least playable, and the ones that aren't are fixable in future expans...

No. The whole point is that nonbasic lands are complicated BECAUSE the basic lands have no design space left in them. A Forest is a Forest that taps for G. That's it. You can't make anything better than that, because it would automatically invalidate the Forest. You can't make anything worse than t...

The biggest problem that you run into with lands that have basic minor effects is board complexity. In small enough numbers, it's much easier to keep track of, like the manlands from the various Zendikar sets, since they belong in generally different decks. But when every single land in your deck do...

Time Spiral poorly executed? The Planar Chaos color-shifts and that one joke rare in Future Sight maybe, but overall that was a great block! Probably my favorite over the entire time I played Magic, although I will admit a lot of that is down to appreciating the historical in-jokes. The dichotomy i...

Re: [OSSR]Magic: the Gathering: Ice Age
Let's go back to the Mirrodin block - the original Mirrodin block. Where we have these guys: http://gatherer.wizards.com/Handlers/Image.ashx?multiverseid=46064&type=card There were 5, one for each color. And you'll note that they were pretty much islands, et al except that you had to follow the...

But as far as I know: Monopoly is still at the top of those charts. Hasbro can't even decide which version of challenge is the actual one in Scrabble. You only get to see discards instantaneously in Dominion. And you still have to make strategic decisions without knowing anybody's score in Ticket t...

So while I have put some work into optimizing Barbarians it just doesn't matter because this is the most hardcore caster edition that's ever been written and there's nothing you can do with any build that will move them beyond that^ chart above. If I post the best Barbarian I could build and someon...

Tranny of Dragons is a relentlessly bland slogfest against random encounters of bullywogs, kobolds and lizardfolk. It certainly is nowhere near the Pathfinder-style adventure path thing they were going for. It is mediocre bordering on being a real stinker. The CRs are just random as hell, everythin...

Right after 4E, you'd figure they'd have learned their lesson that monsters with a crapton of HP are no fun because it takes too long to burn through hundreds of HP for non-optimized groups. The game seems like a real slogfest. After Mearls went out of his way to say that the problem of long fights...

So uh. Previews for the DMG.

Is it just be, or is there no price listed for any magic items? That seems like a terrible decision, even if it's just in a table at the beginning of the chapter or something.

Do you honestly think the Tarrasque cannot pick up a horse, cart, building, etc and fling it at the flying cowardly wizard because he doesn't have a power that says he can? Can your rogue never pick up a handful of rocks and throw them in the face of the big orc because he doesnt have a feat that a...
