    D&D General 25 years

    Another vote for Tomb of Annihilation. It's an incredible adventure. If you need more DMing experience, definitely run "Lost Mines of Phandelver". It's a great intro adventure, and easy to run. The campaigns, like ToA, can be quite a mouthful.

    News Digest: New D&D Books Leaked, Pathfinder Video Game Pre-Orders Open, Spiel des Jahres Winners,

    ???????? Tamoachan is part of Yawning Portal. I myself ran it literally 3 months ago and had a great time (even though my players were sweating and crying all the way through).

    What do you find hardest when running RPGs?

    Doing voices, and finding players I like.

    The Sandbox and the Railroad

    As a DM and player, I've found sandbox boring and frustrating. Railroading is often viewed negatively because, I presume, people go to extremes and think that there are zero real choices. That's ridiculous. When I was a player in a sandbox game, we just did whatever the loudest and most dominant...

    D&D 5E How has your DM handled death before and after the party getting the spell Revivify?

    I strongly disagree. I always use Exhaustion, and it makes my players think, and the feedback has been that they enjoy the world being more dangerous and falling to zero having consequences. Dying in modern D&D is pretty difficult!

    D&D 5E One Shot Game

    I love one-shots and have used them extensively. When I was a new DM, it gave me the chance to practice and try new stuff (that's still the case). I also, for whatever reason, find it enjoyable to introduce new players to the game. There's always this interesting sense of surprised wonder when...

    Wait, is THAT how that works?!

    I wonder if my friends, upon seeing such a thread, would think "Ah yes, even after 8 months of D&D I still have no clue whether to roll a D20 for almost everything, and what my attack bonus is!".

    That's pretty cool, man. Did anything surprise you/what are 13 year old players like?

    I have a very detailed world, but that's not why my game is popular...

    Sounds like OP watches a lot of anime and is mad that not everyone likes anime

    Is rewarding the best roleplayers considered Favoritism?

    Tell him he's enjoyable to have at the table and that you appreciate his effort and pleasant personality. Then kill his character.

    Back in the DM saddle after many years. I need gaming map advice - PLEASE HELP

    Chessex is great. I use regular white chalk on mine. Ultra easy to remove and very cheap!

    D&D 5E Avoiding Initiative

    Sounds cool! But I imagine my players, who are pretty strategically minded, would also dislike this. As a DM I often find the predictability of rounds a (slight) problem.

    D&D 5E What have you found to be the hardest thing for new players to understand about 5e systems?

    Finding stuff on their sheet This one is fine, sheets are definitely overwhelming in the beginning. I have noticed, though, that surprisingly many players get lazy and turn off their brain if they get too much help. One of my friends, who's smart and doing a PhD, keeps asking the same inane...

    Amazon Classifies D&D As Health, Fitness, & Dieting Books

    ??? Are you saying that you somehow get STD-immune when you enter into a relationship? It was a funny joke, lighten up.
