    D&D 5E 5e Zeitgeist

    So with the recent arrival of the DM Guild, do we think there's much hope of getting a 5th edition version of Zeitgeist? I've always thought it looked like an amazing adventure path, and I'm really digging the 5e ruleset. Plus, no offence to WotC, but as delighted I am to see them making...

    New Content

    Just wondering if you think there'll be another little mini-release of content, seeing as how PAX is round the corner. There's already the DDN PA/PVP/WW game, reckon there'll be some related content released with it?

    New Backgrounds/Specialities

    I absolutely love the Backgrounds in Next - especially the fact that they're primarily Role Play effects rather than mechanical. Specialities are pretty cool too, but the ones we've seen thus far... I'd like to see more. So, which backgrounds (& specs) would you like to see? What would they entail?

    Character Sheets

    Just wondering how people were finding the current character sheets. Do we think this is more or less the final look for them? Personally, I don't like it at all. It's too vague as to what goes where, and (the real test for me) I just end up getting annoyed trying to fill it in. Opinions?

    Adventure Scale

    So I was chatting to a friend about the new playtest packet, and he made a really good point (I think). I'm just going to quote him here "Having 'pick Dwarf Locks' as one of the hardest things you can do in the game is great, too - it's not 'outwit an abyssal lord' or 'run up a length of...

    Reclaiming Blingdenstone (Traps)

    So I've been reading the adventure, and overall I quite like it. One area that's really confusing me is the traps however. At one point (Wormwrithings), it mentions a net trap set by Kobolds. It says PCs can attempt DC15 Wisdom check to spot the trap (fine), or DC13 Intelligence check if they...

    Small Question: Labyrinth

    I'm gearing up to run this playtest soon, but one of the things I'm having trouble understanding is the Minotaur labyrinth in the game. The rules about running the curse are quite vague etc, and I understand this is due to them giving DMs more power, but I'm just lost in running this curse...

    Pathfinder 1E Aberrant Sorcerers

    Hi guys, I recently bought the PF core book, and I gotta say, while I am quite the fan of D&D, WotC never made something this purty in my short time playing... The class that really caught my eye was the sorcerer, due to the story-led bloodlines and all. I was thinking about the mutations...

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder Countries - Comparisons?

    Hey, So my friend is starting a little PbP game of PF, and he's using the Golarion setting, or map, or whatever way you want to phrase it. Looking through the PF Wiki, to get a feel for the setting, there's SO much there. So I ask, does anyone know of a place where someone has gone and put a...

    Alignment - Necessary?

    Hey. Just wondering what people think of alignments for characters? Personally, I'm not a fan; more often than not, it seems to limit some of my players' role playing. I dont think that there's anything intrinsically wrong with it when used for say, Gods - its useful to glance at a list of...

    McGuffin Help

    Hey guys, I'm getting into my heroic tier campaign now, the party is at level 4, and are really coming together with their own personal quests and backstories coming into effect. I have an idea for a (somewhat) over-arcing quest, in which they are tasked by a dubious tiefling to find a stone...

    Deck of Many Things Replacement

    Hi there, I'm running a 4e campaign for some friends on a semi-regular basis. Now that the Madness at Gardmore Abbey is on the way out, I'm thinking it's a great fit for one of my Paladin characters - Gardmore could have been his place of training etc. But. I am not a fan of the Deck of Many...

    New Game? [recruiting]

    Hey, I'm trying to rustle up some interest in a pbp game. Ideally, I'd like to play some Nentir Vale 4E, or a decent adventure path like Scales of War. Basically, any setting that doesnt require huge amounts of prior knowledge. I'm interested in being a PC for this, so any DMs out there, take...

    London Scales of War

    Hey, I'm currently a DM in a PoL 4e campaign in London. I'd love to do a bit of playing myself too. Anyone out there looking for another player? Alternatively, anyone interested in running the Scales of War campaign that looks so nifty? C.

    Essentials Sequels...

    Hey all, so I'm DMing Reavers of Harkenwold at the moment with my group, really enjoying it too. After this is through, we'll check out Cairn of the Winter King with the Monster Vault, thus bringing the guys (and girl) up to Level 4 or 5, and giving me a good foothold of DMing. My question, if...

    PC Lairs

    Hey guys, I was just flicking through the Adventurer's Vault 2 and lingering around the Wonderous Lair Items. I love the items for the fluff factor and all that, but are they REALLY that useful? How do you guys work PC home bases, and/or do you use these wondrous items to any effect in...

    PoL Regions

    I was doing some prep for my current campaign, and while my party are still working round the Nentir Vale, I've been thinking of areas beyond for them to explore. Which got me to wondering: do any of you guys have any cool places (cities, towns, general places) that you came up with that you...

    Druid Class question

    This is in relation to the class feature "Balance of Nature". From my reading of PHB2, it seems to say that a druid can only have up to 2 beastform abilities at a time. Ever. Is this correct? It just seems very tedious to have to constantly retrain over and over just to keep that small number...

    D&D Essentials in London?

    Hey, I'm recently moved to London, and recently new to D&D too. I picked up Red Box and was looking to DM the first few levels with some willing people. All things going well, I'd be up for continuing.
