    Daggerheart General Thread [+]

    Who’s “they” here? Darrington? Sure, that would get side eye. But free fan content is obviously okay. Todd, of course he could. Keith, of course he could. Keith’s blog and podcast have done conversions for other systems before.

    Daggerheart General Thread [+]

    I was all excited thinking it would be about playing Daggerheart in Eberron. It's not. It's a generic chat with Keith Baker and both Eberron and Daggerheart are mentioned. Not sure if it technically counts as clickbait, but sure feel like clickbait.

    D&D General Combat Against Player Engagement: A Systemic Challenge

    A very large part of it for me is even simpler that all that. It just takes too long to resolve most elements of the game mechanics. Multiply that by however many players plus the referee running monsters and you quickly find yourself sitting there, bored and waiting 20-30 minutes between turns...

    Cookin again

    Made German Goulash and Spätzle. This was my first attempt at Goulash and something like my fourth attempt at Spätzle. The Goulash was okay but the Spätzle turned out pretty good. I’m still tweaking the Goulash so not posting that recipe, but here’s the Spätzle. 2 1/4 cups flour 1 1/2 tsp salt...

    D&D 5E (2014) "You Can Do 3 Things" - My Nephew's D&D Houserule

    Two-weapon fighting always made more sense as advantage on attacks and/or advantage on damage.

    D&D 5E (2024) Mike Mearls explains why your boss monsters die too easily

    The other way to go with this is not fight it, rather embrace it. I've mentioned it a few times, but here goes again. Short rests are a free action. You can only take 2 short rests per long rest. Long rests take 5 minutes. This takes the fantasy superhero vibe of 5E and cranks it up to...

    D&D 5E (2014) "You Can Do 3 Things" - My Nephew's D&D Houserule

    RPG CROWDFUNDING NEWS – Fabula Ultima, VOIDSEA, Vast Grimm, and more

    Yep. He trademarked the name of a genre he had nothing to do with creating. He did that years ago. Long before the video game.

    What are you reading in 2025?

    Anyone big on alternate history novels? I'm looking for stuff where the point of divergence is Germany wins the Great War (aka WW1). I'm aware of Kaiserreich. Anyone have any recs?
