 | | 06 Dec 2008 06:18 AM | | Thanks Mazra.
That artwork is pretty nice. I guess the good thing is we already have DDM stat cards for both of these.
I wonder how high the % of re-sculpts are going to be in these new sets. | | | “There are many powers in the world, for good or for evil. Some are greater than I am. Against some I have not yet been measured. But my time is coming.” | |

I would love Dioskilos. A mini with the Stygian Witches would be cool also. | | | “There are many powers in the world, for good or for evil. Some are greater than I am. Against some I have not yet been measured. But my time is coming.” | |

 | | 06 Dec 2008 05:55 PM | | Posted By Wolfgang on 12/06/2008 5:16 PM That sucking sound is getting loud.... Nah, that's the Half-Illithid Chimera in the next room. ;-) I like the sketches. Hopefully a lot of that detail makes it into the minis. I didn't buy much Wardrums, so the Chimera would be useful for me, and I have plenty of uses for the Medusa. EDIT: Am I the only person who just developed a real craving to use a half-illithid medusa in their game? X-D | | | |

I think the visibles were going to be large "uncommon equivalencies". I think and hope they make this chmera a rare, so we can finally have a decently painted chimera. love the idea of having a nice white dragon chimera... new medusa is ok with me, not high on the wish-list. *Happy with any spoiler btw!* D. | | Member of the Bearded Devils Champion of the Huge Spider (WotDQ 46/60), A New Umber Hulk (DoDe 57/60), and the Orog Fighter! | |

Please don't do this. Thanks! Well guys, it is as I had guessed in my previous post. Let me comment thus (I have read Greyhaze's response on his site): 1) The free advertising argument isn't that strong because the percentage of people who view the boards compared to the sum of all of WotC's paying customers is probably pretty small. 2) That said, this also means that the threat of leaks causing damage is pretty low. 3) All told, however, this isn't about leaks or advertising, I think. It's about ownership. I am the author of several articles. I would be displeased if others copied and pasted my content without my permission whether or not I or they profited from it. 4) The way to proceed, then, is to go ahead and display stuff that we have permission to display. If you think you have something that won't be permitted, contact a Maxminis moderator or Host, or write to Peter Lee and ask what that person thinks. We don't want legal action taken against Maxminis, but, that's really a few steps away. More importantly, we don't want a bad relationship. Now is the time to mend the problems, not exacerbate them.

Please don't do this. Thanks! I understand the want/need to keep products and artwork which are being shown only to a select paying crowd hidden, because you wish to see them happyily satisfied knowing they have access to something others do not. However, at this time, it seems the majority of buyers I know, Rpg and DDMers alike are wanting to see what wizards is doing. So as the "Paying customers" goes, When I buy a case or two a set, and want to know if my money will be going to you or one of your competitors for figures, it boils down to the question of whos figures best represent my needs for the cost they are asking. So what I really mean is, I would be fully happy if the paid members recieved some information, but I believe the majority of your customers who are sitting waiting to see the direction the product is going aren't paying for the priviliged information. I myself being a student and having to actually save money to buy cases can't afford even minor expenses without sacrifices. So, a release of two sets of information may be the required action. Give the paid subscribers more, like an extra art sheet here, and their continued 4e stuff, but keep your other consumers happy. I don't like sitting in the dark solely on the fact that you want the $5 customers to feel special, as it is insulting to think my $125 cases I buy mean nothing. | | | |
