    TTRPG combat with emphasis on *player* skill?

    D&D 5E Why wimpy SLING damage and range?

    The real problem is that D&D is ultimately not well-suited for mirroring the nuances of weapons from the real world. Ultimately, all of these weapons are deadly, which makes comparisons of "more deadly" somewhat spurious. There's also the fact that there are a wide variety of other factors...

    D&D 5E Wanting more content doesn't always equate to wanting tons of splat options so please stop.
