    Circle Casting Details Revealed for Forgotten Realms: Heroes of Faerun

    I don’t know. I did not buy the FR books for Circle Casting. I bought them because they promised options for casters. I hope they deliver because I am sick of martials and multiclass martials dominating games.

    Circle Casting Details Revealed for Forgotten Realms: Heroes of Faerun

    I don’t doubt it and I don’t care. I want feats and spells that empower casters. They have really gotten the short end of the stick and I want change.

    Circle Casting Details Revealed for Forgotten Realms: Heroes of Faerun

    This is desperately needed. Martials are so unbalanced no. Thank goodness WOTC seems to finally be waking up and putting some bite back into casters.

    Draw Steel General Thread [+]

    Just played Draw Steel on Saturday and the biggest compliment I got was from my player who hates low level D&D and was not thrilled at starting 1rst level in DS. He was playing a revenant shadow that was walking on the bottom of the lake to infiltrate a bandit camp. He got attacked by some...

    Draw Steel General Thread [+]

    This is exactly it. I think they didn’t want to hear about martials complaining that casters can do stuff they can’t. Furies become personification of chaos. Shadows are rogues with teleport that also support surprisingly well. Tacticians are battlemaster fighters. Everyone has cool and thematic...

    Draw Steel General Thread [+]

    I loved The Angel Summoner & BMX Bandit skit. As Angel Summoner would say. It’s all about the results.

    Draw Steel: Fake variety helps no one

    It’s a slight bump that is balanced out by classes gaining extra resources differently. Furies gain additional resources by being damaged, winded or dying. Elementalists by witnessing our using non holy magic. Conduits by their domains. It’s really neat and encourages group play.

    What gets me playing Draw Steel and not Pathfinder 2e?

    The character creation for Draw Steel is just as robust and time consuming as Parhfinder 2. Draw Steel plays faster for me. The options flow easier and group tactics blend better. I love kits and the creativity they allow. The initiative system is fast and easy. The Director (DM) seemed to...

    Draw Steel General Thread [+]

    I am playing my first adventure for Draw Steel. My party is an elf Fury (me), elementalist, rogue and conduit. I really like kits and I feel it creates immersion and encourages imagination. I am not worried about which weapon does more damage or has a different effect. It’s a refreshing change...

    Dungeons & Dragons Releases New Unearthed Arcana Subclasses, Strongly Hinting at Dark Sun

    I would like to see Dark Sun return as long as Psionics are under control.

    Dragonlance New Dragonlance Novels from Weis and Hickman in 2026

    I asked the creator of the Dragon Lance YouTube channel to pose a question on Dragons of Summer Flame to Margaret Weiss when he interviewed her on his channel. He asked her if it was their job idea for Dragons of Summer Flame. She said it was but their decision was heavily influenced by the...

    D&D 5E (2024) Here's The Covers of BOTH of November's Forgotten Realms Books

    Having two simple ranges does not make you an artist let alone a good one. It’s similar to being an actor with limited range. Things fading from view and showing depth is not what I get from viewing the goofy wizard picture. Depth would show other creatures at various ranges and the background...

    D&D 5E (2024) Here's The Covers of BOTH of November's Forgotten Realms Books

    I disagree. AI art does not hold a candle to the great artists like Elmore, Caldwell, Easley, Vallejo, Frazetta and Brom. It’s simply cheap for the company to produce.

    D&D 5E (2024) Here's The Covers of BOTH of November's Forgotten Realms Books

    That is your opinion. AI art often has the feature I mentioned. You can simply go to Chat GOT or other AI programs and create fantasy art. The characters will look very similar. Humans will have the same goofy expression over and over again. Either overly serious or overly comical. No subtlety...
