    WotC may have sent the Pinkertons to a magic leakers home. Update: WotC confirms it and has a response.

    edit note: There was a big post about my line of work and how it pertains to this situation, but it's probably best not to advertise. I'd delete the post but don't think I can. So, here, have a nice meme: https://media.tenor.com/B3wcngElK30AAAAd/my-bad-excuse-me.gif

    D&D Movie/TV Rate the D&D movie

    I voted an 8. But holy cow, did I love it. Seeing some of the locations and ideas I've loved my entire life actually materialized on film made me almost tear up.

    D&D Movie/TV Guess the D&D Movie Opening Weekend Box Office Performance, and Win a Prize!

    $52m Fantasy movies aren't huge blockbusters with the notable exception of LoTR, so about half the opening of Ant Man.

    D&D General Best D&D Novels

    Obviously, Chronicles was my intro into D&D and is very special to me for that reason. I also liked many of the Eberron novel series, particularly the Thorn of Breland series and The Blade of Flame series.

    D&D 5E "When DMing I Avoid Making the PCs have 'pointless' combats." (a poll)

    Some of my best plot advances have come about from pointless encounters. For example, my group is currently playing a hexcrawl. When they entered a hex, I rolled a random encounter; in this case it was a corpse hanging from the inside of a cabin out in the woods (I am using a random encounter...

    D&D 5E How many players would use a service like this

    If you can make $20 per player per session at 4 hours each with 5 players each game that's $100.00 per session. I won't lie and say I haven't thought about it. Even 1 game a week paid is a nice income boost. But beware, you've turned your hobby into a profession with all the good and bad...

    D&D 5E The Next D&D Book is JOURNEYS THROUGH THE RADIANT CITADEL

    I don't buy adventure books, so I'm going to pass on this one. I have no problem with an only POC book, wish it would have been a new setting book.

    D&D 5E WotC Survey about PHB spells!

    I took it and provided feedback. I rated many utility spells that require concentration as dissatisfied. I called out Barkskin for just how bad it is in comparison to Mage Armor when it basically fulfills the same function for spell casting druids. I also rated Wish as very dissatisfied...

    D&D 5E What would your 5 PC party be?

    The First Four are pretty easy: Lore Bard. Twilight Cleric. Totem Barbarian. Divination Wizard. The 5th Spot is hardest. I could see any of the Wildfire Druid, Battlemaster Fighter, Hexblade, or Watcher Paladin making a good fifth.

    D&D 5E What 3 Settings did you pick in the Survey

    I checked the Homebrew, Eberron, and Dark Sun options. My Homebrewed world that I used for 20 years was based off Dragonlance, FR, and incorporated some Eberron when it came out. My new Homebrew is based off Dark Sun, late Bronze Age-early Iron Age historical civilizations, and...

    D&D 5E What are your (up to) three favorite character classes?

    No Warlord yet, which is my favorite class. I went with Barbarian, Bard, and Rogue. The third one could easily be any of the Rogue/Cleric/Wizard/Fighter given how I am feeling that day.

    D&D 5E What are your (up to 3) favorite character races? - Wizards Survey Duplication

    Human, Half-Elf, Halfling for me. If you asked my wife, she'd say the Cat People (Tabaxi), the Bunny People (Harengon), and the Dragon People (Dragonborn).

    D&D 5E In your Years of Gaming, How many Psionic Characters did you See played

    I have played since the early 90s and have never seen a psionic PC in DnD. I have seen them in other games like Deadlands, Rifts, and TMNT.
