At first I was a little annoyed with Cassian's weird detainment, but the button at the end was quite fun. I loved the Chandrillan wedding. Not how I expected things would go, sad to say, but that is one of the reasons I love this show, it surprises me in wonderful (and tragic) ways. Andor...

I think this is moving to a buy for me. If nothing else, seeing how they're tweaking formatting and giving a lot of thought to how to run these out of book with minimal prep and with different size play groups has me strongly interested

I had the opportunity to meet Crawford at a panel on queer gaming and he signed my 5e PHB. I'll miss his presence on the team. That said, I refuse to theorize or make predictions right now. We'll see how DnD evolves

The Tron: Legacy soundtrack is an all-timer, so good luck to NIN. I dunno, I will defend Legacy despite its flaws, but this didn't do much for me.

Sharn is definitely something I want to see in a visual medium, a game or even an animated/live action show, because I want to see how a city of towers is realized. A lot of the static art and maps ... don't really sell to me what Sharn would be like.

Introduce materials that are more resistant to fire, being put on fire? So the sails are more resistant to fireballs, but still can be shredded with grapeshot?

Master of Many Forms (Complete Adventurer): Druid that gains the ability to wildshape into Oozes, Plants, Fey and Dragons. TBH, I'd mine a couple of subclasses out of this. Maybe a "Circle of Decay" that gains Ooze, Vermin and Plant forms, another Circle for Fey and another for Dragons. ...

I'm in the process of planning a Savage Tide Campaign. It's been a long time ambition, I had thought to adapt it for 4e, but never pulled the trigger, now I'm done waiting.

Ben Cannoli is the God Emperor of pastry?

Ugh ... I kinda like this? I'm so tired of live action remakes ... but this one might not be bad? Confusing feelings, will have to ponder it.

This is on right now: https://www.youtube.com/live/_qP3CnChXgk?si=d8PDbz5oZHNvqQ2R It's a lot of talking around stuff, but it's fun and Genevieve just showed up in the stream

First three episodes of S1 Andor are now free on Youtube, for those that haven't watched the show yet and want to see what all the fuss is about. Or just rewatch, like I need a reason to rewatch Andor, lol

1. Sharn. Eberron's vibe just really suits urban adventuring, and I like Sharn's verticality and size. I will say I want a better view of the city, a lot of maps and art doesn't really sell how the "city of towers" would work. 2. Sigil. I like Mos Eisley style campaigns where any PC species is...

I still like the Mystic as a good first step towards a 5e Psionics system. I liked the use of power points and packaging related powers/spells into disciplines, I like that it's "chunkier" and yet allows a player to both specialize and not be thematically locked, which I sometimes see with...

Dragonheist worked pretty well for me, but my group really dug into owning and running their bar, I do think it needs work. And a better title, I wanted a heist, lol. Curse of Strahd was fun, I've played through it once. Funnily enough, we thought we had to avoid the castle until we had done...
