    Vecna: Eve of Ruin Adventure -- An “Off the Rails” Adventure for D&D's Anniversary

    I like the sound of this adventure, except for the introduction where the PCs are summoned to work for the 3 Awesome NPCs you've heard about from Other Products, especially the Super Awesome Witch Tasha who broke the rules of time and space just so she could be here and let you experience how...

    D&D General Hasbro Is Looking For Partners For Baldur's Gate 4

    There is cash on other tables as well, and Larian can only sit at one of them.

    WotC WotC President Cynthia Williams Resigns

    I think that's unlikely. The first rule of quitting your job is to say nothing to anyone at work until you hand in your resignation. If your employer suspects you're thinking about leaving they're going to start looking for a replacement, which might not be ideal for you if you eventually decide...

    WotC Who should be the next President of WotC?

    I think they should hire Swen Vincke of Larian, he seems to be an expert at running a successful gaming business without sacrificing the creative aspects. I doubt he'd want the job though.

    RPG Evolution: Hasbro's AI Plans

    I don't think AI matters with trademarks. If I get ChatGPT to come up with a company name for my new business, then I believe I can trademark that name as normal. Trademarks are identifiers for businesses and products, not creative works, so the creativity or lack thereof of AI doesn't come into...

    RPG Evolution: The AI DM in Action

    I think the best way to get more people into DM'ing is to make sure that being a DM is as fun as possible. Make it clear that the DM is a participant in the game as much as the players, and not just putting on a performance for them.

    RPG Evolution: The AI DM in Action

    I'm an enworld poster, just like you and everyone else here.

    RPG Evolution: The AI DM in Action

    After reading your posts in this thread, I'm starting to think the techbros aren't so bad after all. ;)

    D&D (2024) Do you plan to adopt D&D5.5One2024Redux?

    It's a default assumption in D&D, change that and you're playing a very different game.

    D&D (2024) Do you plan to adopt D&D5.5One2024Redux?

    Why does the connection need to be reliable? It only needs to work once to get the message to the contact. Maybe most messages fail, but this one gets through because PCs are special and this PC has a special feature that lets him send messages. It seems like you're looking for reasons for the...

    D&D (2024) Do you plan to adopt D&D5.5One2024Redux?

    That's the only thing in D&D that seems implausible to you? ;) The vistani don't have to bring the message the whole way, just pass it onto someone else heading in that direction. The background feature doesn't specify any timeframe for how long it takes the message to reach the contact, it...

    D&D (2024) Do you plan to adopt D&D5.5One2024Redux?

    Better inform your players of your house rule before anyone picks the Criminal background!

    D&D (2024) Do you plan to adopt D&D5.5One2024Redux?

    The vistani travel to and from ravenloft all the time, I'm sure a Criminal can find a shady vistani to pass a message on to their criminal contact. Why you'd want to is another question, it's not like the contact can help you while you're in barovia. But that's really not so different from any...

    Doppel Is A Physical Digital Miniature!

    Sorry to say it, but these look like ass. Not even remotely an alternative to miniatures, even unpainted ones. I'd rather use flat cardboard tokens than put this big chunk on my table. (Unless I was using it as some pice of sci-fi scenery, it could work well for that) Now, if they make the...

    D&D General The rise and fall of D&D in Japan

    Notably, the Fiend Folio collected monsters that had previously been published in White Dwarf, created by third party writers.

    D&D (2024) Here's The New 2024 Player's Handbook Wizard Art

    I can't see them doing individual art pieces for every wizard school. It would just take up too much space in the book.

    D&D General The Double-Edged Sword: Is The New D&D Edition a Cash Grab in Disguise?

    16 page thread about essentially nothing... Clickbait still works for sure ;)

    D&D (2024) In Interview with GamesRadar, Chris Perkins Discusses New Books

    People, OK. But if a game designer refers to a Melee DPR class as a a Tank, then I'm concerned about the game. Did they just give the monk a new role, or is he simply clueless?

    D&D (2024) Here's The New 2024 Player's Handbook Wizard Art

    While D&D magic can potentially heal almost any injury, I don't see any spell in the rules that can permanently "fix" inborn traits, or the bodily effects of lifestyle and aging (outside of wish, which can potentially do anything at significant risk). I don't think the wizard the illustration...
