With this tool I made a large zombie black dragon in minutes that my level 4 group could handle.

Since when are large zombie black dragons EL4?  O.o

Since about three weeks ago apparently.  :-p

I *love* 4th edition because I can have a low level group and still have them fight cool stuff.

When I'm planning my games, instead of looking through the monsters level and trying to find a creature the right level and build around that I can now just use the creature I want to use.

The other really cool thing is even 1st level characters are cool now and even a boring class like fighter has stuff to do besides run in a direction and swing.

Who plays Fighters though?  In 3.5 they were one of the most worthless classes in the game.  If you included every supplement for 3.5 in existence, the Fighter was still in the top 3 most worthless classes.  The moment Tome of Battle:  Book of the Nine Swords came out was the moment you replaced Fighter with Warblade (except for folks who just want the free feats).   D&D 4E is an extension of what Tome of Battle began with goofy races.

Ok, pick most classes that didn't have any sort of magic.

Rogue for example.  Fun out of combat, boring in combat.  Instead of run for an enemy and swing, you run behind an enemy and swing.  In 4th edition, instead of just trying to flank, which you still do, even at level one you have like five different attacks to choose from that target different things.

I'm just trying to say for non-casters, they made it much more fun at lower levels.
