    D&D 5E Dealing with a trouble player and a major blow up

    I think I said it in the other thread. Stop playing with him, even if it means not playing at all for a while. Find a group you enjoy.

    AMA [June 10] Margaret Weis, Author (TSR, Dragonlance, Margaret Weis Productions, Cortex, Firefly RPG, Star of the Guardians)

    Hi Margaret, I've sometimes heard the Dragonlance novels derided as being for young readers; what age group did in intend them for?

    D&D 5E What to do with players that always roll well

    It sounds to me like malformed dice or rolling method. It's my opinion that the way most people rill accounts for their good or bad luck. Make them cup their hands together, shake and roll a reasonable distance from a reasonable height. That way you eliminate the human factor add much as...

    Confirm or Deny: D&D4e would be going strong had it not been titled D&D

    I also agree with everything that Mishihari Lord said. Iosue also has a good point.

    D&D 5E Video Game Worlds You Wish Were D&D 5E Settings

    Diablo Warlords Mainly I want the monsters from Diablo. Warlords actually is a DnD setting, but not a published one. It's the lead designer's home brew.

    D&D 4E The Best Thing from 4E

    That's a very good question. I know for certain that I don't like the minion mechanics, even when damage thresholds are used. I never actually encountered solo - elite or elite - standard, so I can only extrapolate. I don't think it would suit me because it would still have the same flaw as...

    D&D 4E The Best Thing from 4E

    Am I the only one who didn't find the solo - elite - standard - minion demotion of monsters over levels satisfying (as a player)? Hmm. To me it was a terrible thing because killing 6 minions of something you previously fought was patently not the same as killing 6 actual creatures. The was no...

    D&D 5E What does 5E NEED

    More cleric domains Dungeon magazine A better index A demonstration of how to fill the character sheet. As for the argument; Generalist wizard = don't take a school. Bam done. Skill monkey rogue or ranger = ask your dm to swap sneak attack or spells for more skills. Done Aragorn, gandalf...

    GM Problems: Table Space

    Laptop, pencil, dice and a few sheets of paper does it for me. I often have the monster manual closed under the laptop and rarely reference it. Adventure is on the laptop. Monster stats printed out in summary form, initiative tracked by a player. Scrap paper to track HP.

    D&D 5E Necromancer Games--What do you want us to make next?

    Many short adventures in one book with no real link between them. I'm taking about adventures that last for a level or less. Synopsis and background on npcs in a few pages. Leave the details for the dm to decide. 1-5 pages per adventure. "side quests of doom"

    D&D 5E Array v 4d6: Punishment? Or overlooked data

    For me, random stats belong in one-shot games, or other short term campaigns. Points buy or default array is for longer campaigns where the 'penalty' of rolling bad would last a long time. Recently I came up with the idea of using 4d6 drop 1 a little differently - All players roll their 6...
