What with the news about new core D&D books coming out in 2024, and the questions "new edition, 5.5, or what?" could we get a "D&D 2024" prefix?

Sorry for the thread necromancy, but the answer could be in 3e Arms and Equ8ipment Guide on pages 55-57. It covers vehicle speed empty and loaded, cargo capacity, and cover provided for driver and passengers. Carriage, cart, chariot, heavy chariot, sled (dog), stagecoach, and wagon, along with a...

Throwing knives, and shirikens, are thin and usually found in a sheath or pouch containing 2 or 3 together. As such, drawing the 2 or 3 at once could be done with a single interaction. In fact, with some sheaths I have seen, it is more difficult to draw just one than to grab all at once.

Bahamut.

It’s essentially how I’ve started all but one of my campaigns for almost 30 years, starting when AD&D 2E first came out. In 5E terms, I would start everyone with a background, +2 Proficiency. Either no weapon proficiency, or only half proficiency in one wizard weapon. Characters were not fully...

I wouldn’t say “never”. AD&D 1E had a wonderful Assassination chart. It’s primary purpose was for Assassins to get an instant kill. But a second use was for any character to maybe get an instant kill on a “held or helpless” opponant. First the DM determined if the situation warranted use of the...

The disclaimer works best with the standard cover

Too close to call. I like the picture on the front cover of the standard, but I liked the spine and back of the special better. I also like the feel of the special better. edit: I got a chance to see and handle both at Gamehole Con.

Possible by eating a pepperoni and garlic pizza just before going to bed while watching a pampers commercial? Oh, maybe that's how I could create that dream.

While I would buy the FRCS, I would be even more interested in The World of Greyhawk.

I would use the D&D Starter Set. Easy to learn, easy to play. Nice set of pregens.

I grew into using minis and grid/terrain. When having difficulty understanding the encounter room layout, the DM grabbed a nearby chessboard (for the grid 10ft/square) and Twizzlers for the walls, then the chess pieces for monsters (black) and characters (white knight for paladin, bishop for...

Village of Homlet (T-1)) is a classic low level 1E module. Village, NPC encounters, dungeonn crawl, overland exploration, intrigue. Designed for levels 1 to 4. It is the beginning of a larger module: Temple of Elemental Evil.

I tend to like what they have done with these, but have issue withthe 3 spell-granting feats. +1 to ability score, proficiency or expertise in a skill, one cantrip and one 1st level spell (both specified). Compared to Magic Initiate: TWO cantrips and one 1st level spell (your choice), no ASI, no...

I would like to see the return of a monthly softcover adventure release. Perhaps make it a periodical, like Dungeon Magazine. The charm of D&D (for me) is that it is a paper & pencil tabletop game you can play live with friends. Please don't force us to use a computer device to prepare or play...

I use the variant Encumbrace rules as written. Seems about right, but I started with 1E.

The 8 sessions I played were each done as single-table events (of course each was offered multiple times) But the Epic event that they ran on Saturday night, Keep on the Borderlands: Grand Assault) was a 4-hour tier 1 multi-table event. I did not play in that event.

I wonder if this is going to use the adventures I played this weekend at GaryCon. There were eight different 2-hour adventures set in the Caves of Chaos, using the old maps. There was also a seperate adventure I did not play for Cave of the Unknown.

Very interesting! It's about time. Surprising that it will be Gale Force 9.

I have interpreted it as you have, the 1 hour refers to walking.
