    Spelljammer D&D Direct Live Report: 9am PDT (5pm BST) SPELLJAMMER CONFIRMED! DRAGONLANCE!

    I love brom's darksun art and DiT planescape. Both my fav fantasy arts overall. Currently (but slowly) making borys of ebe based on brom's cover art for Valley of Dust & Fire. My fav dragon art of all time. Not a fan of the art for 4e and 5e. While I liked some of the 3e era art, that's...

    D&D 5E Is Paladine Bahamut? Is Takhisis Tiamat? Fizban's Treasury Might Reveal The Answer!

    While they are aspects they were also children of demogorgon I thought. I'll check . A lot of the research for my game came from that adventure so I keep the photocopy print out available... Sf

    D&D 5E Is Paladine Bahamut? Is Takhisis Tiamat? Fizban's Treasury Might Reveal The Answer!

    Considering the survey results tell wotc/Hasbro that few players go above like 12 or 14th level (forgot which), how many campaigns are truly getting to the point where cosmological, where gods live, can they die, what happens if we try and combine these two planes etc actually matter. I guess...

    D&D 5E Is Paladine Bahamut? Is Takhisis Tiamat? Fizban's Treasury Might Reveal The Answer!

    Yes iirc I believe so. She is the most powerful being on that plane although bel (or whomever in lore is the current archdevil on the level) does more for the blood war etc. The arch devil goes to tiamat with favors for her children, evil dragons to help and in dragon magazine in the 90s it...

    D&D 5E WizKids Announces Largest Tiamat Miniature Ever

    Yes. Wizkids one is (and that other one Dave and I talked about is much). Maal drakar for one is one a base which raises it off the ground. It's torso isn't that big. Maal is big in the reaper sense but when you compare to other model companies it's nothing special. It's relative low cost...

    D&D 5E Is Paladine Bahamut? Is Takhisis Tiamat? Fizban's Treasury Might Reveal The Answer!

    when the FR source books introduced the Wild Goose Inn in Arabel in the...late 80s/early 90s? something like that, that was a precursor to the flood gates opening. Via that inn, real name The World Serpent Inn, ppl could travel anywhere from within its doors if you knew how to enter the true...

    D&D General Influence of official D&D lore on your home games?

    I use D&D settings, lore, locations, etc as much as possible. I do modify stuff, but only if needed for something not covered or something i really just want/need to change to fit a specific thing, but that,i would say is minimal. My base is 2e planescape from a general cosmology (using the...

    D&D 5E Is Paladine Bahamut? Is Takhisis Tiamat? Fizban's Treasury Might Reveal The Answer!

    right but thats subjective. i didnt find it condescending. i read it in the POV of them. There's even lots of quotes from planar characters, and proverbs etc in use. in a way its different reading many of the PS sourcebooks compared to the other setting books - a different tone/style. i just...

    D&D 5E Is Paladine Bahamut? Is Takhisis Tiamat? Fizban's Treasury Might Reveal The Answer!

    oh which is fine. as i said. i like the changes/retcon and in a way i think it makes sense. its like real life. many cultures used to think the sun moved around the earth - until it didnt. We used hydrogen in blimps, until we didnt. Plague doctors used to think the smell/scent is what passed...

    D&D 5E WizKids Announces Largest Tiamat Miniature Ever

    also, i would LOVE if wizkids did a massive tiamat plastic set in their new upcoming plastic sprue based model sets (advanced sets, similar to GW plastic sets). i doubt they would make something that big, but it would be cool :P SF

    D&D 5E Is Paladine Bahamut? Is Takhisis Tiamat? Fizban's Treasury Might Reveal The Answer!

    So this is explained in Planescape and i use much of the 2e expanded lore (planescape) as the basis for my games but i recall back then at conventions etc a lot of hardcore fans of the setting, FR, DL, etc didnt like what planescape did. One of the planescape books explained the beliefs of the...

    D&D 5E WizKids Announces Largest Tiamat Miniature Ever

    I was one of the people who got that same massive tiamat. its done by Hector Arce in...San Diego or LA. forgot which. it was available here...even earlier this year: http://mutecitysculpture.bigcartel.com/ BUt now the store is gone. I got it in summer 2016 IIRC - 750. When i last checked...

    D&D General Miniatures shouldn't be edition-dependent (a Fire Giant size rant)

    oh ya. i have a bunch of ral parthas as well. some still unpainted and the ones from the mid 90s for D&D are quite good IMHO even though scale is off. the 80s ones i think are painful for the most part. That said, i do prefer the modern details, sizes, etc BUT i also cant stand the...

    D&D General Miniatures shouldn't be edition-dependent (a Fire Giant size rant)

    in 3.5 though you can always consider them advanced and make them the larger versions :) i do like the larger models. the GF9 collector series and wizkids preprimed are both official D&D lines and thus are in scale with 5e... i also play 3.5E but i make giants, dragons, etc as big as i need...

    D&D 5E Wizkids new Dragon preview.

    i believe he was going for something like this but putting the red as the central head. What is interesting about this art that i just noticed, it makes no sense. The arms on either side of the red head/neck, like its a red dragon and the other necks/heads are just added behind it. but...
