    Ridiculous Characters?

    I recently starting DMing for the first time with a new group, for most of them this is their first experience with d&d and with tabletop games for that matter. And it is pretty interesting some of the characters they want to play, one being a half dragon mindflayer and another being a half orc...

    Is D&D (WotC) flaming out?

    Why does it seem like a good number of people have a doomsday prediction for tabletop games in one way or another. I understand that all good things will come to an end and this form of gaming at some point will come to an end. But at this point in time it has a healthy supportive community...

    Complete bastard of a character? help

    I'm constantly turning to forums for help for a character and once again here I am asking for help. I always seem to have a hard time trying to find my niche, can't really find that character that just clicks with me, but one thing I have always wanted to play was a truly just a annoying bastard...

    A Comical Character

    I was hoping to get some help on how to make a good comedic character. In my group everyone has their niche and things get boring from time to time in terms of the game play. I was hoping to mix things up by making a character that is the comic relief and since this forum has helped me out so...

    My group is starting up a new campaign and I have been thinking of playing a blind character. I'm really open to any suggestions on how to build this character, any suggestions for races or classes or helpful feats, or really just any ideas. I'm going for a bit more for a comical character...

    Save me from my DM

    I just started a new campaign with my group, one member of our group started DMing for the first time. The only problem is he is very controlling over the campaign and very critical of us players, almost to the point to where it isn't fun to play. I understand he is new to it so it is going...

    D&D 4E Switching to 4e?

    I decided to post here cause it is pretty easy to find places online that tell me why 4e sucks. I wanted to hear more bias opinions in favor of 4e instead of people complaining about it.

    D&D 4E Switching to 4e?

    I'm fairly new to d&d and have been playing 3.5 for about four to five months now. I have recently talked to my group and everyone seems to be in agreement of possibly "trying" 4e, though with some hesitation from a couple people. I have done some research and I find myself torn between trying...

    How to cut back on distractions? help

    Does anyone have any advise, stories, or suggestions on how to cut down on distractions during a gaming session? Don't get me wrong I'm no saint, I have fallen victim a few time to something catching my eye or finding something interesting on my phone at the game table, something I believe...

    How much is too much?

    I do admit I need to cut back on the books, I wanted to have a decent collection right away as opposed to just taking my time. Excitement can get the best of me. I'm glad to see I'm not the only person who has gone maybe a little overboard with d&d, it makes me feel comfortable hearing how...

    D&D 3E/3.5 Whats a good 3.5E Archer race

    I'm working on a archer right now, Scout 4/Ranger 6/Cleric 1 with swift hunter, improved skirmish, greater manyshot, ranged skirmisher, and travel devotion feats. A splitter bow and boots of skirmishing are great to go along with it too. This is something I'm building up to, but once I get...

    How much is too much?

    As I keep stating, I'm a noob, been playing d&d 3e for about four months now. This being my first experience with tabletop gaming.

    Why is it so hard to get people together to play?

    Thanks to everyone for the advice, I'm going to run by some of the ideas with the group. Such as killing off a few campaigns and having set days a week to play. I guess I had many misconceptions about how often people played, I was thinking multiple times a week or atleast once a week. But...

    Why is it so hard to get people together to play?

    In my little group it is very difficult to get people together to play, on a good week we maybe get one gaming session in if we are lucky, but most of the time it turns into once every two weeks. I really enjoy playing and want to play more often and I know everyone else in my group seem to...

    Tabletopocalypse Now - GMS' thoughts about the decline in the hobby

    I'm still a noob to d&d but I could easily say that the rise in video games especially MMO games over the last 10+ years help cause a drop in sales, video games are easier to pick up and learn as well as provide an immediate visual stimulus. Atleast for the younger crowd I can understand why...

    I'm currently playing a scout and trying to find a feat I have read about on some forums called ranged skirmisher that is suppose to increase the range of skirmish. I can't seem to find the feat anywhere, I've looked through my books and searched online can't seem to find it. Does anyone know...
