Familiar Ground

Sorry for the late update today.

I have the strip on automatic updates, so it’s supposed to load future strips on a regular schedule, but it had some sort of hiccup today for some reason.  I didn’t know until I got an email from a reader.

I still don’t know what’s wrong, so I just uploaded the strip manually.  It should be up in an hour or so.

WotC has updated some much needed items from the Player’s Handbook, Forgotten Realms Player’s Guide and Martial Powers.

A few of the changes include:

• Rain of Blows – two attacks at 1[w] with a third attack if you meet the prereqs (no need to hit).
• Righteous Rage of Tempus – only adds the crit bonus damage rather than treat the next hit as a crit.
• Battlerage Vigor – gains temp HPs when you hit with a melee/close attack rather then when you’re hit.

• Guileful Switch – Is now a free action, but must now be used by the warlord before he acts and takes his normal turn.

A few others, but those are the important ones in my opinion.

I saw this and just had to share it with people.

I actually want to watch the Teddy Ruxpin one.

Free RPG day is this Saturday, June 20th.

What does that mean?  It means you can visit most game stores around the country and they’ll have free swag for you provided by various game companies, including WotC.
