    Default 4e D&D Essentials abbreviation!

    I've seen 4.5 to 4.4 to 4E and everything in between.

    I propose:

    4.E

    Eh, "4e" and "3.5" can refer to non-DND terms too, so if we limit ourselves to abbreviations that aren't taken yet we'll be here all day.

    4.E is too similar to 4E.

    4.2

    Why because someone had to bring up 42 in a geeky debate such as this

    But in all seriousness, it isn't that much of a change to warrent a .5 but it still isn't the same ^ ^

    I use 4.e; it's concise, easy to remember, and most D&D gamers know exactly what it means.

    Is there some reason I'm missing why we all have to agree on one?

    So we can talk about it without misunderstanding. Plus its just kind of fun for us to debate as we're nerds like that. At least for me.

    +1 more. I love it. It gets the point across and I strongly dislike the cliché of 4.4 or 4.5.

    I've been using 4EE but I can get behind 4e.e or whatever.
