I abandoned Hero Labs in favor of Pathbuilder a good long while ago. Never felt like I was missing out. Except maybe the printable character sheets, but everybody in my group followed along with me to Pathbuilder, so nobody has a paper sheet anymore.

Special rule, once per adventure, declare it is time for The Weather, play some indie song nobody has ever heard of, and the current problem is mostly resolved off camera.

The book isn't going to be landscape, is it? As much as I prefer landscape GM screens, landscape reference books are a much harder sell. That image though... either a cheatsheet page or...

Depending on how much they are taking from Dune, it is probably an extended test where you either simply defeat a minor NPC if you win or you have to meet a required number of points scored to be successful. As mentioned above, a successful contest for an extended test in Dune is 2+(quality of...

The dice sets might be a consequence of the licencing too. Maybe they have to make branded accessories. Also made my own, though. A brick of black D6s, a black sharpie and a blue sharpie. Faces with blue are effects, 3s and 4s are blacked out, and ones and twos are... Well... Ones and twos.

From what I remember... OGL monsters just won't be published or mentioned again. They are still usable and will be available on Archives of Nethys under the OGL as they exist now. They aren't going to make Bearowls or Oxidation Beasts, but Owlbears and Rust Monsters will still have stats...

They still have spell schools, they are just more versatile than the D&D schools. Sin Magic is going to need to show up in a fresh supplement, though if needed it would be easy to throw together. Any spell that fits the theme of the school can be added to the special list. We can use the...

From what I understand, the Runelords are intimately tied up to the D&D schools of magic, which are no longer options in the Remaster which has stripped D&D IP. So, they need to be worked over because Karzoug won't be a Transmuter anymore. But that is inference and conjecture, so grain of...

Probably less "don't sue us" and more "we'll make our own game with blackjack and hoo" oh, probably that is against forum language rules.

Yeah, they are pulling away from the OGL and D&D in general, so a lot of things are going out the door, or exist by legacy in previous printed material. Like chromatic and metallic dragons. Apparently they are still going to be in setting, just not in future printings.

My only problem with race in D&D is that in game it cludges together education and culture with biology. I'm aware of other problems, but that is what always bugged me. Like, I can get halflings having excellent hand-eye coordination or elven senses and such, but all elves learn swordsmanship...

Wasn't the Robotech Tactics KS more Ninja Division's fault than Palladium?

Hello, everybody I was wondering what might be good for A5E for pioneers and settlement creation games? Kind of want to do a fantasy version of the video game Banished, but I'm not sure what resources would be key for such a project. It would want to be something with seasonal changes...

To the left are D&D types. The three on the right are probably all MtG.

I read it like that as well. You get a permanent +1 to those checks the first time you are revived in that way. If you are revived in that way again it doesn't improve to +2.
