    Level Up (A5E) DM advice request

    Steampunkette I had not though about the dreaming! That is clever. What I love about exploration challenges and journey activities at how they are the small moments that really let the player tell their characters story. I will found times to incorporate this in with dreams.

    Level Up (A5E) DM advice request

    Hey guys. I am getting ready to run a campaign called Have you found it? By Peterson games. I am looking for advice/insight on adding in more exploration tier stuff from A5e. I would love any brainstorming you guys could help with. This campaign takes place in a fantasy city modeled after...

    Level Up (A5E) Ninjas in A5e

    I was thinking more like this. http://narutodnd5e.wikidot.com/classes:classindex So there is a full 5e conversion for the Naruto ninja world. The big difference between the Naruto set up and og5e is that it doesn't break up actions by type. So you have a move/standard/bonus actions in 5e. But...

    Level Up (A5E) Ninjas in A5e

    I would love a unique class for ninja and not just as archetype for another class. Possibly something similar to the 4e assassin class.

    Level Up (A5E) To save a kingdom advancement question.

    Mike does more spiders then anyone could be ready for include John Goodman? Pedantic that is what I would do as well. Do the quests until they are ready to move forward.

    Level Up (A5E) To save a kingdom advancement question.

    That makes sense. It was difficult asking this question. It is hard to not sound like a dick with a written question. But I am coming from a place of curiosity because I really enjoy the A5e stuff a lot. Hearing design insight stuff is really cool and what I was looking for. And what you...

    Level Up (A5E) To save a kingdom advancement question.

    I get that. But when I look at memories of holdenshire I see that uses milestone. Then to slay a dragon goes to experience. To stake a vampire goes to your party should hit this level before they fight this thing. And to smite a fiend is milestone again. My question is not "why would to...

    Level Up (A5E) To save a kingdom advancement question.

    I happily backed the Kickstarter. I have been enjoying going through the book. I love your storytelling. I have a question on advancement. To slay a dragon does not have a "character advancement" listing. To stake a vampire has a "character advancement" listing that says players should be...

    Level Up (A5E) Adding A5e to other campaigns

    Now that you mention it the destiny boon and the epic path boons do seem similar in power level. That isn't bad. I do really like the epic path in ODL and the epic backgrounds in raiders of the serpent seas. It is such an interesting and unique feature. Anyone reading who doesn't know, the...

    Level Up (A5E) Adding A5e to other campaigns

    Lichmaster my biggest tip for doing Odyssey of the dragonlords as A5e is to compare the encounters to the A5e monsters book. The encounters are tough but basic. It's several guards or several bandits, or steam mephitis. It doesn't present much diversity. So I've been giving guards and...

    Level Up (A5E) Adding A5e to other campaigns

    Yeah everything seems close enough that tracking supply doesn't matter. I am interested in how you gave them the level 20 class feature when they beat completed their epic story. That is cool. We are still in the great labors. They completed the first of the 3 in our last session.

    Level Up (A5E) Adding A5e to other campaigns

    Hello everyone - I am currently DMing the campaign book Odyssey of the Dragonlords. I am curious if anyone else is running this campaign or another published campaign and how you have incorporated A5e things into it when the campaign writers made the poor choice of not utilizing the A5e...

    Level Up (A5E) The big difference between A5e and 5e?

    Morrus made the game so always go with his advice. I find character creation in A5e significantly more satisfying then O5e. O5e character creation: Race: dragonborn Background: guard Class: fighter A5e character creation Heritage: dragonborn Heritage gift: I'll be half dragonborn and take...

    Level Up (A5E) The big difference between A5e and 5e?

    Straight math. Basically 1/4 of total party level is easy, 1/3 is medium, and 1/2 is hard. You said you have the books. I think in the monstrous Menagerie book is a fantastic table. It sets the number of PCs and their level and tells you the total CR you want to use for the difficulty you...

    Level Up (A5E) The big difference between A5e and 5e?

    I have been a player and DM for both O5e and A5e. The big difference that both player and DM will feel is story. A5e characters tell a much greater story. Even in simply character creation. In O5e you pick your race, class, background. Dragonborn, monk, city guard. But in A5e you add in...

    Level Up (A5E) Steampunkette's Writing Requests

    How about a campaign path adjacent backgrounds. To save a kingdom is coming out. Have a background that directly ties a character into "to slay a dragon". So the dragon or other npc know the character. There might be additional events that would occured in the campaign if there is a character...

    Homebrew Can I get some feedback on a homebrew race?

    Do a search on the Dreamland cat from Peterson games. Peterson does a lot of Cthulhu related stuff so this player option of being a cat makes you pretty much the cat from Coraline. His Dreamland cat has several sub races describing different types of Dreamland cats. So easy conversion to A5e...

    Gate Pass Gazette What Would You Like to See Going Forward?

    Oh!!! I have really liked the 3 combat traditions you have introduced in the GPG. I would enjoy more of those. But you give enough backstory into the tradition that it could be a culture but you don't make it a culture. I would love to see a culture added when backstories like this are given.

    Gate Pass Gazette What Would You Like to See Going Forward?

    I enjoy the monsters and exploration challenges added into the GPG a lot. I definitely want more. I would like to see a paragraph added to the articles that give a suggested to include them into the regional tables. Not everyone is expanding those tables out with the content you are adding...
