    D&D General [Name Change]Red Hand of Doom Conversions

    I don't remember the details, it's been 15 years... But heavily foreshadowing of Kul during the campaign, and then some clue at the Ghostlord's Lair about the ritual, if succesful will make the Army invincible or something. Back in those days, I made a campaign teaser, with some spoilers, where...

    D&D General [Name Change]Red Hand of Doom Conversions

    What we did back in the day was switching chapter 4 and 5. So you get to the Fane, defeat Azaar Kul and (possibly) the Aspect. Just make sure the Aspect's defeat isn't ultimate, make something up (for us, it blasted the party who hurridly teleported away, so that was easy). Then when the party...

    What I Like About Nimble 2e (So Far) — A Partial Review

    If you read the review linked to, it explains it better, but basically, unless you spend an action on using your armor, it doesn't exist. And if you do, the second goblin chops away at you, completely ignoring your full plate. It really rubs me the wrong way

    What I Like About Nimble 2e (So Far) — A Partial Review

    Yes, because I'm sure it would annoy me in the back of my mind, as it feels (to me) like the ultimate shafting of non-casters

    What I Like About Nimble 2e (So Far) — A Partial Review

    your no. 1 is the reason Nimble won't be my next system. I have seen no "fix" to it. Only statements like "but it's great!". But for people that don't share my opinion on this, there's a lot to love in Nimble

    Other D&D Variant What is your favorite version of D&D offshoot/D20 fantasy today? Tell us why it is the best!

    On paper, martials gets hosed in Nimble (imo), as armor is useless unless you spend an action. And you can only use your armor against one attack. Please tell me how this plays out at the table?

    D&D 5E (2024) Help me Houserule 5e Equipment & Items

    I would look into Level Up's magic item pricing and Tales of the Valiant's as well. Eventyr Games also do great item pricing. I like Sane and Discerning as an early effort at pricing. However, they are too gounded in 3.x, imo, leading to some results open for abuse. You could look into other...

    ToV Other than "It's not made by WotC", what's the elevator pitch for Tales of the Valiant?

    I find it close to impossible to identify all the areas where 2014, 2024, A5E and ToV differ - and thus which parts to pick from each. This annoys me.

    D&D General Favorite Forgotten Realms products of all time?

    Came here to mention this gem. The Neverwinter Campaign Setting is absolutely amazing, filled with plot hooks and leads but leaving the DM with tons of options for fleshing out. It assumes the heroes and thus the opponents are heroic levels (1-10, 4e scale), which makes it possible for the...
