    How do you feel about the future of D&D after the official announcements?

    QUOTE=Henry;5774432]One POSITIVE result of all this is me hearing from people I haven't seen or just missed on ENWorld for years. Feels like 2003 all over again! :) Most definitely!

    How do you feel about the future of D&D after the official announcements?

    Hells Yes! I voted totally positive. I saw comments above to the effect that 5E can never satisfy Hasbro, and thus D&D will get mothballed. I hadn't thought of that. Pretty grim. But then I got in on Transformers at the ground level way back when, and whilst Hasbro benched that IP from time...

    "He's beyond my healing ability..."

    Colour me heretical I do this - or something like this - ALL THE TIME! In the last few sessions I'm pretty sure I've done the dying last words; I've definitely done dramatic monologue that couldn't be interrupted; I've emailed a "cinematic cutscene" of the baddies having a meeting that was for...

    Invasion by who or what

    Cybermen. You. Will be. Like Us. For your scenario - Cybermen from beyond the void looking to invade ALL the worlds. With superscience. Maybe some are Psibermen. Advanced Cyborgs with mind powers. How's your itty bitty superhero doing now?

    Heat Death, and the sound of the wind

    This is pretty random, so I apologise in advance: [Also, I don't really know how I get from 'whistling aircon' to 'heat death of the universe', yet still I do.] Can anyone point me to a free, downloadable, legal source of sound effects? Specifically, I was just lying in the dim (remember...

    How do you fit monks into Occidental campaigns?

    And now you've offended all the British people. Because everyone knows that Dwarves are Scottish; and the Britains who aren't Scottish are offended at being confused with Scottish, and the Scots are offended at being labelled merely 'British'...

    Gaming, Adults, and Growing Up

    Rambling advice from the future Well OP, I've taken a couple of days to read through this whole thread, and having done so, and seen recommendations ranging from 'dump your future intended' to 'maybe she'll like to RP if given the chance' (maybe she will, I don't know) I don't feel qualified to...

    Games that are more fun to read than to play

    Sadly, D&D. I'm struggling to get a game going at the moment, but curling up with a book (even just browsing the DMG. again.) is stil great fun. Oh, and 'kill puppies for satan'. I was willing to give it a shot, but, you know... lumpley games: kill puppies for satan

    Morrus gets married today!

    Marriage is awesome Congratulations! (Does anyone else feel old? Following EN World not only long enough to get married, but for Morrus to get married). Next we'll learn that Mods are real people too...

    What do you do with a drunken player?

    I gotta say, I've been drunk whilst playing, and I find it really, really, difficult. On the other hand: I basically only DM at the moment, and I've gotten into the habit of getting blasted. For some reason - and completely counter intuitively - it's a lot easier to cope as a drunk DM than...

    Dismissible Spells and Unconsciousness

    Does falling unconscious end dismissable spells? Does dying? I used to be able to cite the references to back up the answer, now I can't remember the answer itself. Thanks, Rassilon.

    Looting and the State

    This has been my party's experience - your campaign assumptions may vary. The party has levelled from 1 to 8 in the Forgotten Realms North, but "my" realms, and I make NPC level assumptions a bit differently. Firstly, NPCs do gain levels, and levels 1 to 3 are considered apprentices. Most...

    New listings on the WotC 2007 product page!

    Oh no. I'll be DMing. I can pretty much guarantee that Elminster is going to "eat it". Rassilon.

    Does practiced spellcaster work with a warlock's eldritch blast?

    (A)Concur with Henrix - (B)though it shouldn't be too hard to model a similar feat for the Warlock on Practised Spellcaster. Maybe the Warlock is considered 4 levels higher (to a max of HD) purely for damage dealt? Require 4 Ranks Knowledge the Planes as the Warlock taps into his fiendish...
