Our current party started as three 1st level characters (5.5e) and they won against two bugbears that housed an Intelect Devourer (Brain Puppy) each. Their synergy is amazing though and they had quite a bit of luck! The only reason they encountered that as a 1st level character is that they are...

I would like to differentiate between campaigns not completing and people leaving a group. We've had people leave the group in the past because they either: Didn't fit in with the rest of the group (had this happen with an old friend from school). They felt they were too 'adult' for it (moving...

I got that bundle, with the FVTT Abomination Vaults module. That was very beneficial for both FVTT and Paizo. Bought quite a bit of FVTT stuff and Paizo stuff specifically due to that bundle. It showed off the paid FVTT module quality made by both FVTT and Paizo. I eventually spent a lot more...

I wonder if WotC at this point would even do another full Dark Sun book? Yes it's rumoured, but rumours also can be wrong. What if it's a collection of classes, variants that could be used in other settings, including Dark Sun. At this point, i wouldn't be mad about it. And would just use the...

Am I the only one that's disappointed by the lack of a 'Curse of Strahd' anniversary edition? And to be honest, last year WotC did an update on Forgotten Realms and Eberron, this year apparently Ravenloft and maybe Dark Sun... If they do two setting updates per year, they'll be running out of...

Bad taste? ;)

It was way, way worse!

A better question would be, are you even in the market for a switch to a different VTT? And my answer is: Heck no! I'm already using Foundry VTT, and I would not see a reason to move to something else. While I do self-host FVTT (on a dedicated Raspberry Pi 24/7), it was more the option to...

They have Howard the Duck... 🦆

I assume that Armor DR replaces Armor adjustments to AC. Making people easier to hit and hypothetically harder to damage. That is fine as long as you're in a decent damage range. But now imagine a Rogue doing Sneak Attack damage once or twice per round. I'm currently building a 10th level...

Have you ever tried running the Cypher system modified without the cyphers? The Cypher system has a SRD, the license is different, but I assume you could build a variant that does not use cyphers while retaining the rest of the system. What I've seen with quite a few systems, that while one part...

There's nothing stopping you from playing 3.5e, you could even go to Pathfinder 1e, which is close to the same... In 5e 2024 your character becomes a Swiss army knife, unless you build very specifically for it, your character is less of a one-shot glass cannon. And where 3.5e was more of a...

That's me 35 years ago... Trying to create a monster of combining ElfQuest, AD&D and Dangerous Journeys... Made character sheets, typed up rules on a typewriter (a LOT of Typp-Ex was used)... It did not survive contact with reality, while it was a very neat mathematical exercise, with all kinds...

I still love Shadowrun, but there the balance between tech and magic has changed over the 37 years it has existed... And whether you like one or the other depends on the people and the specific implementation of that balance. For me peak Shadowrun is the first three editions, with the last three...

Very nice! But there's generative AI in the picture... Right there on the shirt! :ROFLMAO:
