D&D (2024) What do we call One D&D?

[Guest 7034872]

I vote for "Anniversary Edition;" from a sales perspective, I still say that's a really good name.

6e isn't an option, oddly. So, per Chris Perkins' request, it's D&D. Or DND: Do Not Discuss (that we're rendering your 5e books obsolete).

None of the 5e books are obsolete (as of now at least). I will be able use any and all of them with the 2024 books and plan to do so. What you are saying is just FUD.

I am using "compatible" since it's the main point they are emphasizing. There is no reason to assume, so far, that we need to drop anything from the books we own. If you want to double your damage when sneak attacking, just say "I am doing a regular crit". If you don't, say "I am doing a compatible crit, so only weapon damage is rolled and added again." Simple, easy.

By books, do you mean modules and supplements, or all three of the core three too?

I mean all of them. There will be changes in the 2024, but I can mix and match them just like I do for our houserules.

I missed the emphasis on what "you" would be able to do in the games you run. I was picturing a random group of players and DMs getting together.

I'm imagining many folks on EN will navigate fine and smoothly. I'm wondering how long the conversion document for others will be when it's all out. If it's essentially an "add a feat at level 1", "don't double dip starting ASI", and "auto success on 20, auto fail on 1" sticker that gets slapped on the old PHB then it doesn't feel like it will be hard for anyone.

I mean, outside of the Forum world,

...and at least the release video where even they were using 'The 5th edition of Dungeons and Dragons' freely.

From what we've seen so far, they are clearly describing D&D 5.5E. (Or a house-ruled 5E...but that's not a poll option.)

I voted 5.5 but I really like the Anniversary Idea, because of the 10 Year 5E and 50 Years DnD .. so DnD 5A would be awesome.

DnD 5.1 would be fitting, but I think One DnD will not stick when the finished Version is out.

ODnD is a no go, that is Reserved for the Original DnD.
