    D&D 5E Why is There No Warlord Equivalent in 5E?

    There was a lot of feedback against them, I believe, and for the premise that a support role should be a choice and not a requirement. But I hear you. Whenever I get asked to play, instead of DM, I always offer to play whatever the party needs. I’m just happy to get to play. My newest character...

    D&D General Your last adventure in photos.

    Love it! That's quite a range of terrain options on that table, BTW. I see some Dwarven Forge, some Dungeons and Lasers (well painted), some Warlock Tiles. Where'd you get that modular river?

    D&D 5E Why is There No Warlord Equivalent in 5E?

    I think that is a good approach to creating warlord as a 5e support class. "Support class" is a forbidden term in 5e, where every class is supposed to be able to function well autonomously, so I don't see that kind of a class ever being made official. However, for your own use that seems like a...

    D&D 5E Who tried to end the OGL?

    I really enjoyed Ben Riggs' Slaying the Dragon. But I think he undermines his journalistic credibility with posts like this.

    D&D 5E Who tried to end the OGL?

    You missed my point. And my many posts on the subject indicate that I am very familiar with DDB.

    D&D 5E Who tried to end the OGL?

    "Without last year's revolt against the attempt to end the OGL, the 2024 rules would almost certainly be Hasbro IP, and taboo to outsiders except for a fee." So...DnDBeyond?

    D&D 5E Why is There No Warlord Equivalent in 5E?

    So, I work with beginners all the time. Fighters are MUCH easier to play for beginners. You might argue that they are harder to play optimally; that's a different discussion. But as far as a class to play while trying to wrap your head around all the arcane and abstract rules that are D&D...

    IN REMEMBRANCE--2024 AD

    He did cause vast harm, putting innocent people in prison, traumatizing children, destroying families, and ruining many, many lives. And he did it willfully, through a combination of pseudo-scientific thinking and religion, while steadfastly ignoring all evidence to the contrary of his...

    D&D 5E D&D Beyond: No More À La Carte Purchases But US Customers Can Buy Physical Books

    Some, yeah. And some are kept for reference, or because they might be revived again eventually. Or just because I haven't cleaned up the page because I sort of forgot about them, lol. And for my home games, characters occasionally return as NPCs.

    Edit. Never mind. I'm tapping out of this discussion before I get any further ticked off and write something regrettable. Cheers.

    D&D General D&D Red Box: Who Is The Warrior?

    You have to be kidding? Warned that, what, the back of a warrior that he painted and sold inspired a new piece of art that was interpreted as a [GASP] woman? Should they have warned him if it was being done as a man? Or non-binary? Or a half-elf? Or a non-binary half-elf? What, exactly...

    D&D 5E D&D Beyond: No More À La Carte Purchases But US Customers Can Buy Physical Books

    I need to clarify: I am not running all those campaigns. I create some of those campaigns just so that the students can access all the materials on DDB. I actually currently have 21 campaigns on DDB, most of them deactivated. A lot of them are for students who graduated.

    D&D General D&D Red Box: Who Is The Warrior?

    I love this miniature and I don't care what Elmore thinks, in the least. The meaning of art is up to the audience, not the artist, and in this case he was doing work for hire, anyway. Whatever he intended is irrelevant. On top of that, this miniature is not his art, it is a miniature based upon...

    D&D 5E The Magical Martial

    I did read it. I think you're trying to mansplain to me why your taste is logical and mine is not. See above. See above. Also, I think the explanation and mechanic for primal knowledge is dumb and will be implementing it differently. See above. No, you're not trying to tell people what to...

    D&D 5E Why is There No Warlord Equivalent in 5E?

    Hiring them was standard. Hirelings (or followers) were much more integral to the game back then. They're one of the reasons that old school dungeons weren't as deadly as often represented. At least, not as deadly to the PCs. We had hirelings to do a lot of the boring and deadly stuff.

    D&D 5E Why is There No Warlord Equivalent in 5E?

    If there's hostility, it's probably because it's a fundamentally 4e concept, not just in terms of the fact that it was a 4e class, but a class specifically designed for 4e mechanics that emphasized distinct party roles that many have expressed disliking in terms of the traditional D&D aesthetic...
