There was a D&D convention this weekend called D&D Experience.
WoTC began to release some interesting info related to 4E:
Quick Rules Primer
Rogue Preview
Sample Characters
They also ran a bunch of preview sessions at the con. Those resulted in a lot of interesting but sketchy info as players tried to sort out what they were seeing and playing.
I might try to start my 4E online character sheet similar to my 3.5E sheet based on the sample characters, but I kind of doubt it. After studying the sample characters a little bit, I realized that the sheets were fairly specialized. They include a bunch of info specifically because the rules aren't out yet. So I doubt they will be very indicative of the official sheet.
So far I am pleased with a lot of the fixes in the Quick Rules Primer, #9 and #12 seem like they should go a long way toward fixing the broken relationship between Reach and Movement.
I am still waiting to see if they improve bonus stacking.

Look and Feel
I have been tinkering with how the blog looks lately (mainly the header). I am still not happy with it, so I'll probably be tinkering some more.
Role-playing Games
I was looking at this blog the other day and thinking to myself that there were too many posts related to role-playing games. In fact it has more posts than any other topic.
I played my first role-playing game, Dungeons and Dragons in the summer of 1979 at the age of 11. I was immediately hooked. It would be the primary preoccupation of my life for the next 3 years. I have played off and on ever since.
This year there are a ton of interesting things happening. D&D is introducing their 4th Edition. Hero Games (the company I think technically has the best rules) has sold the Champions IP to Cryptic Software to make a Champions MMO and City of Heroes the MMO that I actually play is about to roll-out an online extension called The City Vault.
So I was looking at this blog the other day and thinking to myself that there were too many posts related to role-playing games. I was wrong. I love these games and there are going to be a lot of posts about them.

Moonwalkers: The Backstory
Over time people provide more info about their characters that really makes the game and takes it to a whole new level. Such is the case with the Moonwalker's in The Holy Lands. Recently we've gotten new info about:
The Fate of Cyrus
Jahiera
and Walker started his book:
The Three Spheres
more of Walker's backstory can also be found at the end of his character sheet:
