    D&D (2024) Is it possible to balance the six abilities?

    Getting rid of the original six ability scores = Not D&D anymore. I say that with no judgement, as I think it's a fine task to draft up a new rpg which might have better balanced mechanics. I'm not trying to be a killjoy, but reality asserts itself and the vast majority of players I know of...

    3PP Release Road Worthy Pursuits: On Sale 40% Off!

    I bought it yesterday, along with the Medicinals supplement by the same author. I leafed through it last night and I am VERY impressed. Very good work, very useful for future campaigns, and I love the way this enhances Journey and Supply. Really I'm a little bowled over by how good it is, so...

    Gate Pass Gazette August's GPG Sneak Peek

    Very interested in Fiend Summoning! Also more Sorcerer Archetypes are always welcome, and the Streets of Shalehold definitely sounds intriguing.

    Level Up Gateway Announcing Level Up Gateway

    The concerns about 3rd party content being protected are valid, but ultimately 3rd party content is useless if it can't be integrated into the character creation process, imo. This Gateway will literally be the gateway by which new players can comfortably and seamlessly slide into A5E; for DMs...

    D&D 5E Alchemy Almanac vs Ultimate Guide to Alchemy, Crafting & Enchanting vs Alchemy & Poisoncraft vs Complete Alchemist

    No, I bought the Craft and Creation one, it was from a while ago. The delivery date is actually listed for Feb 2023 (I got the year wrong). I'm assuming because I bought during the weekend, I probably won't get download links til Monday at the earliest.

    D&D 5E Alchemy Almanac vs Ultimate Guide to Alchemy, Crafting & Enchanting vs Alchemy & Poisoncraft vs Complete Alchemist

    Yeah I saw the Legends and Legacies too, and am mulling over whether to jump in on that one or not. But I did indeed purchase the Craft and Creation one. Hopefully I'll get a download link for it soon.

    D&D 5E Alchemy Almanac vs Ultimate Guide to Alchemy, Crafting & Enchanting vs Alchemy & Poisoncraft vs Complete Alchemist

    I appreciate the peek at the crafting system, as that was one of my main interests, but I'm also curious about the full compendium, particularly the Psion class.

    D&D 5E Alchemy Almanac vs Ultimate Guide to Alchemy, Crafting & Enchanting vs Alchemy & Poisoncraft vs Complete Alchemist

    :) I actually went ahead and bought it myself earlier today (the pdf version) but of course it's still in pre-release officially, so I don't know when I'll actually get download links (the website hilariously says the projected delivery date is sometime in February of this year, which is of...

    D&D 5E Alchemy Almanac vs Ultimate Guide to Alchemy, Crafting & Enchanting vs Alchemy & Poisoncraft vs Complete Alchemist

    Oh cool, I hadn't heard of that one. I went searching and found "Kibbles' Compendium of Craft and Creation" and found the kickstarter which I think closed earlier this year. Looks very interesting!

    D&D 5E Alchemy Almanac vs Ultimate Guide to Alchemy, Crafting & Enchanting vs Alchemy & Poisoncraft vs Complete Alchemist

    Hi guys, I'm looking for opinions on which of these 3rd party 5E supplements (or any others that you know of that might apply). I'm not sure which way to jump, but I'm interested in implementing more crafting options. Ultimately I want crafting for all professions, not just the usual Smith and...

    Level Up (A5E) A Database of Pregens for A5e?

    This is excellent news! I'm excited already :)

    Level Up (A5E) Is it worth adding Tales of the Valiant into my A5E campaign? Anything added?

    Whoa, I didn't expect to see a famous D&D person chime in, pretty cool :) I just think the whole idea of Destiny is cool. Sort of a roleplaying mechanism to develop future backstory for the characters. ToV has Lineage, Heritage, and Backgrounds, which is great too, but it corresponds...

    Level Up (A5E) A Database of Pregens for A5e?

    I was looking into ways to maybe create a character generator, played around with websim.ai a bit and while it can kinda give a few pages, it doesn't seem like it's stable enough to generate a fully working tool. Daniel's A5E Experimental Character Creator if anyone wants to take a look (it...
