Essentials Started it rolling and we cant be sure about the D&Next thing coming up. Between comments about combat oriented classes and out of combat ones and a sense that perhaps new devs are out of touch with 4e, will 5e be "the past all over again?" Some grognards are the passionate ones that make even the rest of us sigh. But others may be voices of reason who understand the value of true balance and who take up the fight exerting there voices of concern. The reasons for the original design decisions of 4e didnt suddenly go away... It's not about hate, its about love, we love 4th edition. "Can there be a place for those who love 4th edition in 5th edition?"
The Dark Edition Paving the Way for a Balanced Tomorrow Grognards unite!

What is Living Forgotten Realms?
Living Forgotten Realms (or LFR for short) is a regionalized organized play Living campaign, and the first to utilize the new 4th Edition Dungeons & Dragons rules. Players create characters and assign them to a specific region set in the Forgotten Realms. Characters can be played in any LFR adventure that supports their levels of play, anywhere. All non-special LFR adventures will be available for play no matter where you live in the world. As your character plays adventures, it earns experience points, gold, and magic items which stay with you from game to game. There are dozens of unique adventures each year!
What Do I Need to Play?
In order to participate in the Living Forgotten Realms campaign, you’ll need the same things you’d need for any other D&D game (Player’s Handbook, dice, character sheet), plus a few other things.
You’ll need to get an RPGA/DCI number to play, as this will track your play officially. You can obtain an RPGA/DCI number when you attend your first Living Forgotten Realms event, or check out the information posted over at Customer Service (see the link below).
You’ll need to print out your first adventure log and advancement tracker. Both of those documents can be found in the RPGA Character Creation Guide, available on the Living Forgotten Realms website.
You might also want to have a copy of the Forgotten Realms Player’s Guide and have a subscription to D&D Insider. Both of these introduce tons of new options for your character! Grab a Forgotten Realms Player's Guide at your local gaming shop and sign up for D&D Insider at wizards.com/insider.

Whether you're an idealistic young bravura, crafty tactician, resourceful veteran, or an inspiring legend in your own time, this is the place for Warlords to exchange ideas and recount past victories (or, ahem, learning experiences) with others who know what it means to lead adventurers in battle.
(What? 'herding cats?' no, this has nothing to do with animal husbandry. OK, yes, you can complain about your party if you like. Erathis knows, I will.)
This is the place to discuss strategies, learn & demonstrate new exploits, and swap war stories.
This is Officer's Country.

Are you a parent? Have you shared your love of Dungeons and Dragons (and indeed other RPG's) with your little ones yet? If you have, or you plan to do so, then this is the place for you. My name is Roger (Dargurd on the forums) and as of 2012 I have been gaming for about 30 years now (since I was 12 years old). Now I am the proud parent of two 'up and coming' gamers of my own one of which, my eldest, DM's his own 4ed game on a semi-regular basis with his friends. I would love to share my experiences and to hear about your own. :D
