I thought they were going back to a monthly release schedule after the big "catch-up" packet, and it's already been like, 87 months since then.

If classes which currently start with their subclass at first level, such as warlocks, wizards and sorcerers, have their subclass choice moved to third, what would theses classes even look like their first couple of levels? Wizards are pretty easy, as one who hasn’t specialized yet is still a...

The UA Critical Hit changes limit doubling of damage to just weapon dice. Lots of impacts to the game for this, including no x4 Nova damage for a Grave Cleric/Rouge Assassin, no more paladin crit-fishing for maximum Smites, and no crits for spells (possibly opening up some design options for...

Because there just aren't enough cat-folk races out there :p , here are mine for review. I tried using the Musicus scale to rate them, and think I've got a solid 6 for this race - 3.5 for base, and 2 or 2.5 for each subrace. Some of the racial features are completely my own creation, so not sure...

I'm trying to find an article or post which had a warlock patron that was mechanical/clockwork/steampunk-y in nature, but can't recall where I saw it. Might have been something in the homebrew forum here, DMGuild or the internets at large that I saw it. Googling turned up one that was a bit more...

So, in my campaign setting's previous incarnation (3.5), I did something a little different with the Cleric class and made it more of a cleric/monk blend. A monastic priest, if you will. They didn't wear armor, instead gaining the armor bonuses of a monk. They used simple weapons and could...

I thought there was a sticky around some where that had lists of iPhone/iPad/Andoid apps for RPGs, but can't seem to find it. Anyway, with IOS 8, my favorite dice rolling app stopped working on my Apple devices. It's called QuickRoll, and doesn't look like its supported anymore (last update...

So, this is totally a flavor related question, crowd-sourcing (remember when it was called brain-storming?) for creative ideas just for fun and maybe to steal :) In my campaign for the new edition I'm allowing feats and multi-classing, but I don't particularly want wizards wearing armor through...

So, during our last game, the characters were doing some activities out of combat involving a number of skill checks. Someone (player B) asked about helping another player (A) on a check. Looking at the rules ("Working Together", page 59 of the Basic PDF), it seems that all that needs to happen...

So, noticed a couple of oddities with the Round Down rule (page 4 of the Basic Rules). Fair enough. Helps keeps things consistent. So, answer me this: how many spent Hit Dice can a 1st level character regain at the end of a long rest? By the RAW... none. If a 1st level character uses his Hit...

This was up Thursday, but wasn't showing on the Wizards main D&D page until today: http://www.wizards.com/dnd/Article.aspx?x=dnd/dndqa/20131017

Just a quick question: if a human rogue hides in a area of shadow, and a high elf (low light vision) or kobold (dark vision) looks his direction, is he automatically spotted since shadows are treated as normal light to these creatures?

From the author, Jason Soles, on the UnMet LJ: Announcing Unhallowed Metropolis Revised! February 2nd, 2011 – Seattle, Washington Jason Soles, Nicole Vega, and all of New Dark Age are pleased to announce the upcoming release of the Revised Edition of Unhallowed Metropolis, the gasmask-chic...

I'm looking to make a character which has as part of his background story the fact that he was once a promising young cleric who has now turned his back on his church and is following another vocation (actually, a vocation that allows him to seek revenge on the church that betrayed him.) So...

So, like so many other people, I'm converting a game setting over to Savage Worlds. In the system I'm porting from, the mechanical equivalent of Edges often gives re-rolls for a failed skill/attribute check. What do people think about porting this mechanic over directly to Savage Worlds...

Does anyone know where I might find example bases for the Champions game? Appreciate any links. Gracias.

So this is probably going to be a very niche thread, as I don't know how many people are going to be familiar with both systems, but here it goes anyway. Lately I've gotten into the the steampunk zombie horror game Unhallowed Metropolis. (Search RPG.net for some good reviews/explainations of...

Just wondering, anyone have any recommendations on good bags/boxes to lug around one's RPG books (particularly for a game master?) I saw this one that looks nice, but it seems sized specifically for the boxes of the game it's designed for.

The gunmage is a character class from Privateer Press' Iron Kingdoms. They are arcane gunfighters, semi-spellcasters like the paladin, ranger, or hexblade. Here's an initial draft of a 4E conversion, trying to capture the flavor if not all of the specific mechanics: Gunmage Class Traits...

Seriously? No one has made a thread for this yet? It's been up over an hour. http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/4ex/20080530a
