While you can't gain access to it yet, if you go the design and development page, a error comes up with: "An error occurred on the server when processing the URL. Please contact the system administrator." Written on it. But just below that you can see a "Critical Hits" title.

Your link gets shunted to a "Not Found" search page.

The D&D front page is currently down for me.

BTW, I recall it being said somewhere crits will be a multiplication of only the dice of the attack, not the mods. Could anyone confirm or refute this?

Edit, Maybe it was a paladin power that granted double damage dice that i am thinking about...

There are paladin powers that do this, I'm not sure how crits work.

Unless crits are really spectacular in 4e I'm houseruling in the crits from Hackmaster. And until 4e comes out, I'm definitely houseruling them in for my 3.X games.

You mean we're going to have to wait until after next Christmas for this???

It's up now. Biggest thing: Crits just maximize the damage.
