    D&D 5E Bug Reporting Thread

    Yup, still here. I was concentrating on survey feedback these last few weeks - 1000's of comments - so a lot of these bugs haven't been dealt with yet.

    D&D 5E Bug Reporting Thread

    Thanks for doing this; I'll add them to my internal bug tracker. One thing that would help me is to have a "date added" on the summary post on the first page so it makes it easier for me to track new information. This could simply be something like a tag at the start or end of each line with...

    Please help with Chess puzzle

    Very true. Other ideas: - Change the game - When you're losing, play a different game One of my old GM friends back in Madison would always refer to these as "think like me" puzzles. Basically, the only way to solve them is to think like the GM/Writer. It's the same problem with all those old...

    Please help with Chess puzzle

    I saw the episode; I was thinking that the only way to win the game was not to play, so the proper move would have been to knock over your king. Obviously, I wouldn't have lived very long... Riffing a little on Stormonu's suggestion: The only hint the PCs have is: Change the Rules White to...

    Caverns of Icewind Dale Dungeon Tiles revealed

    Difficult Terrain, p. 60 of the DMG or p. 206 of the Rules Compendium. It basically costs 1 extra square of movement to go through those squares.

    Has one of the people in your campaign ever died in real life?

    Back in 2000 I lost one of the gamers in my group to a heart attack. I was working at the University at the time, and he passed away one morning on the way to work. Things were never the same without him being there, and we never restarted the same campaign. Some of us would get together in...

    WOTC plastic minis deserve to be in metal!

    When you get the chance, check out Castle Ravenloft -- I tried to pick the best sculpts over the history of the DDM line for that game, and you can see some great detail in the unpainted versions that is hidden with some of the painted versions. The Berserk Flesh Golem is an outstanding example...

    WOTC plastic minis deserve to be in metal!

    Indeed, the specific grade of plastic is chosen for durability and safety concerns. I don't want people to open up a pack of miniatures to find weapons broken in two, skeletons with a broken spine, etc. I want people to be able to throw their PC into a bag filled with dice and not worry about...

    There are 13 sheets in all; for shipping stability, sheets 5-13 are stored below the black tray.

    Man, Lords of Madness are looking awesome!!

    That's my experience as well. 2 Dragonborn warlords, 1 dragonborn barbarian, and one dragonborn paladin. (Only one is played by someone under 25, and that's the 10 year old son of the DM.) The only game I'm in that doesn't have a Dragonborn is Mike's lunchtime Elemental Evil game.

    Man, Lords of Madness are looking awesome!!

    As always, I'm interested in hearing what people want. (What's wrong with the mix?)

    Man, Lords of Madness are looking awesome!!

    Honestly, all the PC races other than Human, Elf, and Dwarf are underrepresented. (And I challenge you to find a female dwarf spellcaster before this set.) Let's just take Dragonborn, Deva, Shardmind, Wilden, Genasi, Mul, and Thri-kreen as the most unrepresented. For me to do a caster/warrior...
