Fantasy Grounds is far and away too much of an investment, I am perfectly happy with Roll20 where I have been a member since June of 2012 and have logged in over 3700 hours. Roll20 with the API allowed me to import all the spells and monsters stat blocks, it has built in voice chat, dynamic...

There are multiple articles about this game not just an April Fools post on his blog. Here is the one where you can download a "69" page pdf of a preview of the game. http://johnwickpresents.com/games/galaxy-xxx-sneak-peek/ Maybe it was a joke he took to far, but it is a horrible disgusting...

This is the same guy who says game balance doesn't matter, that D&D isn't a roleplaying game and his contribution to the hobby is the abomination that is Galaxy XXX which is on the same level as FATAL in all things. I enjoy the roll and keep system, I like the setting of 7th sea, but the fact...

I think a vast number of people use reddit for a one stop location for all their hobby forums now. r/magicTCG has 145,984 subscribers at the moment and that is just one subreddit about magic the gathering there are a good number of different ones.

Yes everyone can make any ability check in the game. That is why they are called out as ability checks like Intelligence (arcana) instead of just Arcana. This a perk, you can do anything you want to do just describe your character doing it. Now does the DM have full free range when it comes...

Why would it, it is a roleplaying game you can and always could play whatever you wanted to, that is kinda the point. The blurb in the PHB was there to cause a small amount of buzz/goodwill when 5e launched and sure it did that, but I don't think any players flocked to the game because of such...

There is this http://www.sasquatchgamestudio.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/thule-map-partial-15001.jpg

The top damage per round builds in the game all use great weapon master, but dexterity has a lot going for it like great save, initiative, and so on. It balances out IMO. Now one thing to consider is how the DM handles strength(athletics) and dexterity(acrobatics), we all know athletics is...

What Crawford's ruling does is makes it so that it is best to not ride your summoned steed. Take an animal with strong attacks and just have it fight along side you.

You might want to change the Outlander background feature if you do this for the same reasons.

He looks so high.

That isn't what is going on. The material is a preview of what is in the book, and I am sure that they will either post the map when the book is released or at least put up a lower rez version and the artist will offer the full high rez for sale.

So from the description "Full, updated, high res, labeled map of the northwest portion of Faerün, from Amn to Icewind Dale, and the Moonshae Isles to the Dalelands." It would be an updated version of this map http://cdn.obsidianportal.com/map_images/306071/faerun.jpg

27 point buy, thinking for the next campaign to just give them the following array 15, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10.

Counterspell, it will save your life and that of your friends. Dispel magic, is mostly about overcoming environmental challenges that if you don't have dispel magic your DM will work with the group and have some other way around the situation. One is a shield the other is a set of lockpicks...

People do understand that the flexibility isn't new, the rules say you can make any background you want by picking any two skills, a combination of any two languages or tool proficiencies, and picking any background feature and tweaking it slightly. Heck if you don't use custom backgrounds than...

It disappoints me that they spent page space to new backgrounds, just come up with your own they are the very easiest thing to make yourself.

They probably will. The section from the table of contents is called "Cantrips for Sorcerers, Warlocks, and Wizards" so there is a good chance it will be a cantrip for all three classes.

Pact of tome warlock could take greenflame and shillelagh, use a staff attacking with charisma to hit and damage, and greenflame. So at 5th level with 18 charisma it would be +7 to hit main target for 1d8+4+1d8 fire damage, and the secondary target takes 1d8+4 fire damage. It is also...
