    D&D General Mike Mearls says control spells are ruining 5th Edition

    In my mind, they would know the creature had SR based on the fact I asked whether to push through or not. The choice would be, is it worth the risk that they cant beat that creature's SR, or guaranteed saving of spell slot if they felt it was to powerful and their chances were low. Setting up...

    I found the tone and hmmm, thickness of the books after the 1st three and Silver Spike to change. These are the best. Read all the books, and did enjoy them, just not the same glorious impact as the original trilogy. Did lie that we finally figured out Khatovar and such. Somewhat melancholy...

    Heroforge introduces microtransaction model with Daggerheart collaboration
