The new store looks good. I was just perusing it after getting your email advertising.


Greetings,
I really enjoy reading the message boards here for the content. Though I have found a differently coded message board easier to read than the one currently employed. The link at the bottom is an example of that format. The reasons I enjoy the other format: it encourages discussion by allowing you to read and post quickly on topics and takes less bandwidth from the server because you don't always have to load a new page to read a thread. Scratch the avatars and you save even more on storage and bandwidth (I understand that may not be a hugely popular idea, but really what function do the avatars provide?). I understand you may not be too interested in getting a new message board system until a periodic upgrade especially since WOTC techs can assist in any problems you might run into, but hope you will file this format away for consideration. Thank you. Ryan

This article by Joshua Cole was a great addition to the issue. The application of the animate dead spell in this manner was facinating. The combined forces of the Transmuter and Necromancer shed light on power plays that make D&D more interesting. The greatest aspect of this article is how it optimized game mechanics and roleplaying opportunities without creating new rules (or feats/skills/spells).

Looking forward to additional articles such as this one.
