New Packet!

The new D&D Next playtest packet is here! There's a ton of new material in here. I just gave it a once-over with a fellow D&D enthusiast and we're in agreement that this iteration is a step in the right direction. The new classes look interesting and reasonably well balanced and the problem with damage bloat has been addressed, although the complexity of the core rules continues to increase. Sadly, the rogue got shafted on Sneak Attack. Take disadvantage on your attack roll for a measly extra 1D6 damage? Not likely. Anyway, more commentary to follow over the next few days.
