I was very excited when I got it, as it was a rules expansion. However, many of the new classes and races were overpowered. I really tried the Cavalier and the Barbarian in my game but I quickly dropped them. I allowed most of the spells, though.

I didn’t enjoy this edition much. While there were some clear improvements, such as ascending AC, new rules for multi-classing, and the concept of prestige classes (if not the execution), monsters became overly complicated as they followed the same rules as PCs. Buff spells turned combat...

I always enjoyed the D&D Rules Cyclopedia. Probably, my favorite D&D book.

It was the first RPG I’ve played and, as such, it will always have a special place in my heart.

Although I initially played B/X in a friend’s house, AD&D was the first game I acquired. I loved it. I immersed myself in the game throughout the 1980s, but I eventually stopped playing RPGs when the second edition was released. Years later, I rediscovered the hobby. In hindsight, the game’s...

I’ve had a great time playing it, although I haven’t run many games with it. There was some controversy about the removal of demons, half-orcs, and assassins, but it didn’t bother me much. Demons were renamed, I never liked half-orcs, and assassins were a weak class. Most of the changes resulted...

I played a ton of 3rd edition back in the day. Honestly, I always felt it was way more complicated than it needed to be. But instead of streamlining things, SJG went the other way and crammed a bunch of the supplement rules into the core book, making it even messier. I still think GURPS has...

I was just a kid when the show was released. I loved the Eagle's design, but I found it to be nonsensical. I clearly remember asking my father how the moon left Earth but was finding different planets every week.

I haven't played or brought any books since COVID. This will be my first new one.

Seems like someone in advertisement finally fulfilled a wish he kept since he was a kid in the 80s. The cartoon was very popular in Brazil despite D&D was released only 10 years later. Even now, many people -- such as my wife before we met -- fail to make the connection between the show and the...

Curious to see their take on the magical system as it is the same as The Dying Earth, another Jack Vance series that was the base model for D&D.

Planescape is the most imaginative D&D setting Wizards have. Still, I thought it was too constrained by D&D conventions, such as Tolkien's races. I would love if they published a reboot based in the core concepts but without the legacy.

What a mess! Although I always prefer books in English, the Portuguese edition is a must to most Brazilian players, especially kids that are starting in the hobby. I hope they will settle quickly, although, if it is true, it will be hard to imagine anyone trying to do business if Fire on Board.

Writing from memory, there are no stats in this product, except for class and level for the rulers of the many nations. Considering the 5th edition PHB already give guidelines for many of the gods from the Greyhawk's pantheon, I say we don't need anything else to create your own campaign.
