    D&D 5E Suggestions for Phandelver 6 months later

    Randomnumbersrpg.wordpress.com My princess of the apocalypse campaign took place one year later. The group stayed in town that whole time and ran things hands-on, and muscled their way into a bigger stake in the mine. Like a few before have mentioned, deadwood was basically my template...

    D&D 5E Aerial Combat and Net

    Wouldn't the daring teens fight lower? Also, the net is not overpowered in game mechanics, it's overpowered in real life. Didn't anyone see that episode of "deadliest warrior"? The trident/net combo is insane...

    D&D 5E Princes of the Apocalypse, as told by Groin LLC.

    I realize that my recaps are not as good as Nebulous', but we're up to episode 9 as far as what's been published so far. https://randomnumbersrpg.wordpress.com/session-recaps/

    D&D 5E Action Economy - Is this Correct?

    A quick Google Image search for "buckler shield" and i'm forced to agree. These all appear to be hand held. If anything, they are at least droppable. I guess my mental image was flawed. Now i want to dig out my AD&D 2e arms and equipment guide! Sent from my SM-N920T using EN World mobile app

    D&D 5E Action Economy - Is this Correct?

    If someone at my table wanted a buckler, it would allow usage of the hand but only grant +1 to AC Sent from my SM-N920T using EN World mobile app

    D&D 5E Sacred Cow Bites The Dust.

    I use milestones... The decision was not based on anything other than laziness. The first session of the current campaign ended, they looked at me and said "how much XP do we get?" I had forgotten to track (first time DM'ing in 20 years). I looked down at my notes, looked back up at them and...

    D&D 5E Multiclassing

    I only request that players who multiclass base or on a character decision. The ranger spent the between-campaign-downtime studying with Reidoth, hence the druid dip. When the party fighter told me he was thinking about dipping into Rogue, he also started role playing his fighter just a little...

    D&D 5E Why can’t I find anything wrong with 5e?

    Why can’t I find anything wrong with 5e? Why can’t I find anything wrong with 5e? I read thread after thread, with tons of ideas for “fixing” aspects of the game and I sit here wondering "what is wrong with the players at my table?". We run the game RAW, and have not had a single...

    D&D 5E Do you want a Forgotten Realms Campaign Guide?

    You know, i voted yes before just for the big map. Now, reading this thread, i have to change my mind. I'm still voting yes, but because it's really because of all the hours i spent pouring over the 2e box when i was a kid. I didn't get to use a scrap of it in-game (i didn't even end up DMing...

    Princes of the Apocalypse, how's it going?

    I'd like to hear others' takes on how they tweaked this AP. I think it's wonderful. I wish i had made them all roll new characters so i didn't have to skip the intro missions. I have heard or said that it's too much of a sandbox, and i think that comes down to information control. That, and...
