    D&D 5E Rcvd Monster Manual today from Amazon - Ink Smeared Pages (Gargoyle/Genie)

    Anyone else get their copy from Amazon and have this problem? Ink is smeared horizontally the entire width of the two page spread. Makes the pages almost illegible. Figured I should check before I contact Amazon.

    D&D 5E Lost Mine of Phandelver - comments and complaints after read-through (spoilers)

    I've been liking what I've seen of 5E so far and was thinking at the very least, it would be a great introductory RPG. So, just in case, I delved into the Lost Mine. My comments are going to be a little all-over the place but are hopefully going to be rules-light and focus on the adventure...

    Bookmooch?

    So we FINALLY put up our wall of bookshelves, and immediately covered it with books, video games, DVDS, more books, graphic novels, action figures and (ahem) my little ponies. Some of our books suck. Hand me downs, dollar purchases, recommended and reviled, etc. So the gf has been putting...

    Goblin Warrior's Mobile Ranged Attack

    Mobile Ranged Attack (standard; at-will) The goblin warrior can move up to half its speed; at any point during that movement, it can make one ranged basic attack without provoking an opportunity attack. So, what exactly is not provoking the attack of opportunity? The move, the ranged...

    Nintendo Revolution Controller

    It is...odd. My initial reaction was fear, but upon thinking about it and reading the possibilities, it might be able to work. especially if it can sword-fight. See it here: http://cube.ign.com/articles/651/651301p1.html Read the possibilities here...

    Why do 3E clerics get such good press?

    I'm baffled. Using the PHB only, I have no idea why people think clerics are the most powerful class or why people constantly talk about how useful they are. I dislike the low-level spell choices of a cleric, and I despise most of the high-level choices (especially the Symbol spells). The...

    This asks for general opinions on action points, as well as the rules as written and possible house rule changes, so I put it in General. Feel free to beat me, scold me and move the post if necessary. Ok, so I'm in full-on preparation mode for my new Eberron campaign. (Finally!) And I'm...

    Serenity - the Comic Book (Spolers for issues 1 and 2)

    Well, I didn't expect to see Dobson back... Sure my friends and I discussed the possibility of his eventual return if the tv show continued, but I didn't expect to see him in the comic. The dialogue has been mostly firefly goodness (thought I felt that issue #1 nailed it better than #2) and I...

    D&D 4E 4E conversations

    I know this has probably been brought up before, but I don't read the Meta forum as often as I should, so just in case it hasn't Can we make 4e conversation a ban-able offense? Please? At least a nice scolding and temporary ban.

    Nondetection / True Seeing /

    Nondetection states that the warded creature or object becomes difficult to detect by divination spells and then lists clairaudience/clairvoyance, locate object, the detect spells and crystal balls. Presumably this works on other scry-type spells, but what about divination spells such as see...

    Eberron Story Hours?

    I'm hoping to start an Eberron game at some point in July, (keeps getting pushed back as the current campaign drags on) so I was wondering if there are any Eberron story hours besides the ones with Eberron in the title (those I can see myself)

    To show the influence that comics have on the real world... Ken Jennings won forever on Jeopardy, but a lot of people didnt believe the hype and wanted to see him match against former conestants.

    How to bring a city alive?

    Literally. While, reading the Sharn book I began toying with this idea. (Which has probably been bouncing around my head since I saw an "Animate City" spell somewhere in the last week) What if Sharn was alive? A sentient being in itself. Capable of subtly influencing the goings on. I haven't...

    Is THIS a cool way for the PCs to meet?

    I think so. I still have months to flesh it out also. As the new campaign probably wont start until February or March, but tell me what you think? Its long, and plotted, so it seems railroady, but I don't think it really is. I'm looking for warning signs of places where I'm assuming too much...
