    D&D General WotC: Novels & Non-5E Lore Are Officially Not Canon

    Then there’s folks like me who have the City of Greyhawk, Waterdeep, and the Isle of Dread all on the same world. I prefer to piecemeal things from the settings and adventures to create my own world. I appropriately call my setting Amalgam. So the canon doesn’t mean anything to my game.

    D&D General WotC: Novels & Non-5E Lore Are Officially Not Canon

    I’m proud to say I understood every Transformers reference. None of this matters to me because I make my own continuity at the table. The official stories are just guidelines, anyway…

    D&D 5E WotC: 5 D&D Settings In Development?

    I, too, am a big Mystara (content) fan. My homebrew world uses a lot of Mystaran elements (Rakasta, Tortles, Lupins, Isle of Dread). So yeah, I’d put that ahead of Greyhawk…

    D&D 5E Is Paladine Bahamut? Is Takhisis Tiamat? Fizban's Treasury Might Reveal The Answer!

    This sounds great! I hope they don’t forget Peal, Opal, Diamond, and the Great Dragon (all from BECMI).

    D&D General Why defend railroading?

    I can’t read seven pages of this. So here’s my take. Everyone at the table is playing together. The DM is still one of the players in that respect. If the DM spent time preparing an adventure, the others should at least play along. I’m not saying have certain things you HAVE to do, but damn, if...

    D&D General What are your Core races?

    I’ve used the same continuity for 35 years. During the Spelljammer and Planescape days, the party would hop around but the main world is loosely based on Mystara (Isle of Dread started it all) but a totally different map. Then the world was changed a couple times between editions (2e-3e and them...

    D&D General What are your Core races?

    I’m the opposite. I love the Cantina approach for the crazy diversity. Maybe that’s why I loved Spelljammer and Planescape so much…

    D&D General What are your Core races?

    If a player wants to play something and it’s nothing game breaking then I let them play it. It’s OUR world, not mine, so as long as it doesn’t ruin someone else’s fun, I’m all for it. I’ll adapt the setting or have a reason for the race. That said, it’s hard to nail down nine. My world has a...

    D&D 5E Monster Manual Expanded III HARDCOVER/PoD is FINALLY OUT! Get it now from the DM's Guild!

    I actually meant PC races specific to your books. No one else is likely to do those. I may try my hand at them if I can get a little free time.

    D&D 5E Monster Manual Expanded III HARDCOVER/PoD is FINALLY OUT! Get it now from the DM's Guild!

    I can’t wait for the new book! I know the hardcover won’t be available right away, but is there a way to buy the pdf and pay the difference and “upgrade” to the HC when it comes out? Also, have you considered doing a book taking appropriate creatures from your monster books and do them up as PC...

    D&D 5E New WotC Survey! Learn About A New D&D Product!

    I don’t get it. It was just a survey about random crap. I didn’t get an NDA.. I don’t see why there would unless others got a different survey.

    D&D 5E Kingmaker for 5e?

    I had totally forgotten about this. I missed the Kickstarter or whatever they did, but I would love a new chance to run this in 5E.
