    Wallpaper Graphics: These models are rendered in 3D Studio Max for the the wallpapers so there are a number of rendering options that can be done there that makes the models look better.

    E3: Sorry about the lack of news- I spent the ENTIRE day getting the module ready for E3. Changing the traps, putting some different monsters down, giving better treasure etc. I even have this room where about 10 ravens are flying around until some rowdy PC hits one and then they swarm whomever attacked. Very cool.

    Can we tone down the violence?: There is a violence setting that can be adjusted within the game.

    David Gaider, Designer

    Why no shield spell?: Shield spell is not in because 'cover' is not implemented fully. It simply adds to AC... and if that was the case, a full +7 AC bonus to AC would be hellishly powerful.

    Why were some spells taken out?: As I just posted elsewhere, there are various categories of spells that are, indeed, possible to do... given enough time. Seeing as we only had time to do so many hundreds of spells, a significant number had to be put aside until later to implement.

    Mislead is definitely one. Detect spells, weapon enhancement spells, etc. The main effort was to include as broad a selection as possible, covering the bases for the various schools and tactical uses.

    Adding more spells into the game is definitely something that will be done in the future... if the fans don't beat us there, first (and even then, most like).

    What do the different species of Dragon look like?: I believe that the dragon bodies look more or less the same (different color, naturally), but the dragon heads are the individualized portion.

    There is only one size for the models, as well.
