    D&D 5E Why the Druid Metal Restriction is Poorly Implemented

    I admit I was incorrect, the Drow Ranger was legal, but the dual wielding scimitar was not. In 1e, you could only dual wield with a dagger or an ax in the off-hand. The ranger as a dual wielder did not come along until 2e, in '89.

    D&D 5E Why the Druid Metal Restriction is Poorly Implemented

    You might want to recheck your sources for your information on Mielikki. She does not allow her druid followers to wear any armor they want. According to Faiths and Avatars (page 114) her specialty priests (Druids) can wear Padded, leather, or hide and wooden, bone, shell, or other nonmetallic...

    Burning Questions: Why Do DMs Limit Official WOTC Material?

    Another answer might be simplicity. If I am running for new players, i might only offer them the pre-built characters from LMoP. This will allow them to review only a few characters, then they can jump right into the game. I have limited a game to just the races/classes found in the free...

    Here's What's In That $500 Beadle & Grimm Platinum Edition of Waterdeep: Dragon Heist

    There are three products that have a map with scale of Waterdeep, that I am aware of. In order of increasing focus, they are: City of Splendor: Waterdeep (3.5 hardback) -1 in. = 750 ft. The Forgotten Realms Atlas - 1 in. = 700 ft. City System - 1 in. = 100 ft. IMHO, the City System is most...

    Middle image, first column, third row, looks like we may see a Beast Cult in the adventure.

    Intro D&D Adventure for a mixed group

    OP, what do you mean by "one shot"? Do you mean an adventure that can be run in a single session, or is separate from an on-going campaign but may take multiple sessions to run? The answer to that question may help in getting the right answer to you.

    Wait, what? That honestly made me laugh out loud.

    RFC: Iconic D&D Cities

    If a village like Hommlet can make the list, what about Shadowdale? Considering its most famous resident, it is pretty well known.

    Mike Mearls tweet: Is the Known World of Mystara coming to 5e? (What's Cool About Mystara?)

    Seems to me that he is just tweeting something that a lot of DMs have run into when taking any setting and porting it to a different edition. You start with something that should be quick and simple, and then the pebbles become an avalanche.

    A First Real Look At The Reincarnated 'Into The Borderlands'!

    Yup. Which means that the map is from the second printing. By the later printing (i think 3rd), the numbers were Arabic.

    Are We Looking At A New RPG Kickstarter Record?

    Or kept modest, and go on for a long, long time.

    Worst Purchase Ever?

    I might go with the 2E Player's Guide to the Forgotten Realms. Basically a travel guide with a story, but it was not much of a guide and a thin story. I read it once, and have tried to reread it a few times, but just can't force my way through it. And I could never see handing it to someone...

    It's Time To Pre-Order Your Copy Of Into The Borderlands

    Assuming this is in reply to me, all the other stuff. The update to 5th, the additional encounters, the new magic items, spell, and monsters, the section on henchmen and hirelings. I was only pointing out that the original prints were not 16 pages. And with the correct page count, the...

    It's Time To Pre-Order Your Copy Of Into The Borderlands

    Neither of the originals were 16 pages. B1 is 32 pages, and B2 is 28 pages. Including the front and back covers and interior cover maps adds 4 pages to each. So a total of 72 pages for B1 and 64 pages for B2 for both versions of each. That gets the B1 section to line up with the table of...
