Our group just decided to try Pathfinder for the first time (we have played D&D through all its editions up to now), and I was wondering what electronic tools are available that are widely recommended. In particular, I'm looking for a tool that will allow me to easily track initiative and spell...

I took my first look at the Dungeon Master Guild's available products and was shocked to see the extent of material already available in just a few days since it opened. I haven't bought anything yet, but am considering starting with a few of the least expensive things out there like the...

From earlier information such as the miniatures set coming after Rage of Demons, it seemed the next storyline was going to be Monster Menagerie and something themed around strange monsters created perhaps by an insane wizard or such. Now it seems that the next storyline is instead Curse of...

As the title says, if you have a magic (say +1) bow, and an ordinary arrow, and hit a creature that has resistance to non-magic bludgeoning, piercing and slashing weapons, does the bow imbue the arrow with magic so that it pierces the resistance, or does the arrow itself have to be magical...

Has any information been released about this set other than the case incentive is a white dracolich? Do we know yet if there is a theme, and whether the theme is related to the Out of the Abyss story line? I don't understand why there is so little marketing or even basic info released about...

I miss having a big variety of different CRs for each monster, with not only different hp and AC but different variant abilities. I know I can create monsters myself but I need a greater variety. I have a player that has already memorized the stats for everything in the Monster Manual. I know...

This Kickstarter has some awesome looking miniatures of native cultures of the Americas and the Pacific like Azetcs, Hawaiians, etc. and awesome spirit beasts and creatures like a deer woman, horned serpent, capelobo, paisa bird, ewah, etc. And this is his second time after a successful...

Lost Mine of Phandelver and Hoard of the Dragon Queen Spoilers . . . . . . I like both adventures, despite a few issues here and there. But one thing I 'm concerned about is the spider staff and staff of defense in Lost Mine of Phandelver, and the staff of fire and wand of winter in Hoard of...

Anyone try converting monsters from the D&D Next adventures like Murder in Baldur's Gate and Legacy of the Crystal Shard to the final D&D Fifth Edition rules? I'm going to try running one or both of these adventures soon and will have to do some conversion, but was wondering if someone had...

I'm thinking of buying one of these to help me flesh out the Sword Coast region for a Fifth Edition campaign in a somewhat sandboxy style. Which would you recommend as having more detail on the NPC's, locations, etc. and potential side adventures that can be mined for side quests in the region...

I came up with this as a new background option for my players. Please let me know what you think and feel free to suggest improvements or additions if you think they are needed. Undead Hunter Hunting the undead is more an obsession than a profession. You have spent your life until now...

For some reason, it seems that every edition we go back and forth about the size of giants in the game. In Fourth Edition, the few giants that were huge (storm, cloud) in Third Edition, shrunk down to Large. Now in Fifth, it looks like the giants that traditional were Large (Hill, Fire...

I'm running Lost Mine of Phandelver and will be soon running Hoard of the Dragon Queen (I think I'm deciding it is 1479 DR) in the Forgotten Realms. What are the best resources for running a campaign focused in the Sword Coast region? I got Murder in Baldur's Gate for the info on Baldur's...

My group tried the playtest last year with the adventure "Reclaiming Blingdenstone" and one of my players made a barbarian character he loved, which wielded an axe in each hand. We started playing again with new characters using the Starter Set and the Basic rules, but he's been looking forward...

Now that I have the Starter Set from my local WPN store, and have downloaded the Basic rules, my attention has turned to getting my hands on the Player's Handbook. I know the official release date is August 19, but was wondering if it has been announced if this will be released to WPN stores...

I'm a backer of this Kickstarter because I love the look of their flagship product they are offering, a beautiful and highly detailed prepainted miniature covered wagon. My D&D players have used wagons countless times in adventures as cover or while escorting caravans to safety and fighting off...

I didn't keep up with all of the versions of the playtest packets so I don't know where the rules were headed on this point. Will there be a reason for a first level cleric created with the basic rules to pick the iconic mace and shield? Is the default basic cleric proficient with those? Or...

I know we don't have the rules yet, but I'm too impatient to wait, and want to get started helping my players find miniatures for their first level basic D&D characters we'll use when the Starter Box comes out. One player already settled on an elf rogue with a bow, and even found the miniature...

Just realized that when I look at this forum on Interenet Explorer, the logo for threads about the latest edition have the new logo (I noticed that change ever since the new logo was revealed a few days ago), but on Firefox, I still see the old D&D Next logo on the same threads.

My group is starting to think up of characters to use with the Basic Starter Set when it comes out in July. One player wants to play an elven archer, but the missing spot in the party is the rogue. Based on what we know so far, does it seem feasible for an elven rogue to be a decent archer in...
