And the Big One...

I've introduced the "incorporation" so i believe i should give a brief rundown of Fourth Edition.
the basic premise, well the biggest difference i could see, is that it runs a lot smoother than 3.5, especially when it comes to leveling up and picking abilities and powers.

Of course it has it's negative points as well, many of people's favourite classes are gone now, the bard, monk and druid are gone (we'll miss you) and also the sorcerer and barbarian (meh). These have been replaced with the Warlord (a more combat oriented bard as far as i can tell) and the Warlock (a wizard that focuses on single targets rather than widespread damage).

The removal of the Gnomes as player races seems to have brought nothing but joy to my companions, but i like the little bastards, they look pretty good in the monster manual now. The three new races are pretty cool though, the Dragonborn, Tieflings and Eladrin are very suave.

All in all i think a big improvement has been made to dungeons and dragons and i hope more people get into it.
