    D&D General 6e guesses

    5e added "bounded accuracy", a design principle which is supposed to keep numeric bonuses to d20-based rolls from skyrocketing. I think - and hope - that 6e is going to expand upon this by adding "bounded mortality". This design principle is meant to prevent hit point bloat, but also raise the...

    Other D&D Variant Dragonsbane Vs Shadowdark

    It's interesting how there might be a divide between player interests and GM interests when it comes to this. One of my favorite parts of Dragonbane - as a GM - is that there is no hp bloat and that the player characters don't get so powerful that it turns into a fantasy super-hero game. But if...

    Other D&D Variant Dragonsbane Vs Shadowdark

    Do you think Dragonbane lends itself less to campaign play compared to Shadowdark? I don't really see any reason why

    D&D General 6E But A + Thread

    I want 6e to keep most of the stuff from 5e, but I want it to reduce the hp bloat.

    Critical Role to Use D&D 2024 Rules For Campaign Four, Expands to Three Tables and Thirteen Players

    Wow, very surprising! I genuinely thought it was a no-brainer to use Daggerheart, their flagship game.

    D&D General D&D Beyond's Users Online Over Last Year

    0.5-editions don't generate as much excitement as a brand new edition (see D&D 3.5). Fifth edition has been out for over 10 years. The virtual table top (Sigil) was hyped, but failed horribly. Wizards' release schedule for the 2024 edition might not have been aggressive enough (why is there such...

    D&D 5E (2024) Magic Items & Crafting In The New Dungeon Master's Guide

    How are the magic items in the new DMG costed? A specific sum or a range based on rarity?

    D&D 5E (2014) Amazon US book sales rank.

    Just 5 years ago (before the pandemic) I would have jumped at buying the new player’s handbook in paper. In 2024 I ended up buying it at D&D Beyond and Foundry.

    D&D General Stuff 5E Did Right

    I’ve been a player and DM since 1993. Now I’m a dad with a demanding job and a big house. I want D&D to be simple and easy to play. My friends are in the same situation as me. We like 5E because it’s easier to play than 3E and 4E.

    D&D 5E (2024) Predictions for the 2024 DMG?

    I predict the changes to buying and selling magic items are not going to make people happy (no gold value per item, only per rarity category). I wish they went the PF2 route for the groups that want to have stores selling magic items (as an option).

    Project Sigil Project Sigil Updates: D&D's 3d Virtual Tabletop

    How do you download books from D&D Beyond? I thought they didn't allow for PDFs or anything of the sort.

    D&D 5E (2024) New Dungeon Master's Guide Cover Features Venger (From the D&D Cartoons)

    Cool cover, but looks more like the cover for a Monster Manual than a DM guide (IMHO).

    Warhammer: Age of Sigmar: Soulbound: Starter Set PDF Coming Monday

    I'm definately looking forward to it. I paint Age of Sigmar-miniatures and love diving into lore of the worlds I engage with. Age of Sigmar had a difficult / mismanaged launch back in 2015 and one of the things people didn't like about it was the lack of any real lore or background information...
