    Second 5th Edition Survey! Plus Results of the First Survey: The Ranger Gets Some Attention!

    My guess is that they won't actually errata rangers or druids or any other class - they can put out optional rules to replace features without changing the rules in place. If that makes sense. Things change, but only if the group wants to use the optional rules, and thus doesn't invalidate...

    D&D 2E Yup, it's confirmed, 5E is the easiest version to run since 2E.

    That was first edition. THAC0 and the ability to calculate hits was moved to the Player's Handbook in second edition so players could do it themselves. (Though to be fair most players seemed to calculate their hits in 1e anyways.)

    Greg Tito Is UHURA!

    Generally a Communications Manager is focused on managing improving both internal communications channels and external business channels. It's not a Public Relations gig per se, unlike community manager. At least that's been my experience.

    Greg Tito Is UHURA!

    I think Morrus was referring to Lily's post right above his own.

    Greg Tito Is UHURA!

    Self-censorship? For what? Actually liking a product? Unless you have proof otherwise, the story here is: Guy worked at media outlet and wrote about something he was a fan of (D&D) decided to apply at the company whose work he liked and got the job.

    More on SWORD COAST LEGENDS: Campaign Tools & Starting Races

    While it does annoy me when press releases are inaccurate, this isn't an official press release... it's an interview. The writer made a mistake.

    More on SWORD COAST LEGENDS: Campaign Tools & Starting Races

    However, as huge fans of the Sword Coast region, the opportunity to set our story there was simply too much to pass up. DMs, on the other hand, are free to build campaigns anywhere within the Realms they choose. Having a map creator/editor isn't surprising, unusual, or that deep when it comes...

    More on SWORD COAST LEGENDS: Campaign Tools & Starting Races

    They got a influx of Bioware employees a couple of years ago - in fact three of the five people leading the project have worked on titles like NwN, Baldur's Gate, Dragon Age 1, and the Mass Effect series.

    "Tabletop D&D Has Lost Its Way" Says Pathfinder Video Game Exec

    Pretty much. The guy who said he approached Wizards chocked it up to some sort of miscommunication and quickly dropped the matter.

    Watch Ex-TSR Staff Revisit The Old TSR Building!

    Awesome! I always wondered what the old TSR headquarters looked like.

    Early Enrollment for PATHFINDER Online Opens Today!

    It's had two kickstarters, and the poll is on a site that caters to MMO fans, people there know of it. Heck, it's been covered enough there: http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/pathfinder-online/ These are the people that are going to be evangelizing the next great MMO to the mass market and on...

    Early Enrollment for PATHFINDER Online Opens Today!

    I think most people except the seriously hardcore Pathfinder fans will pass on this. In terms of appealing to the masses, well, it just isn't. In Massively's most anticipated poll for 2015 MMOs it gathered only 0.05% of the votes, finishing dead last. And yes, that's not 5 percent, but half a...

    D&D 5E What does a Kraken look like?

    You can also find the original design here: http://www.brynnart.com/designing-for-dungeons-dragons-5e/ This has a bit more detailed side view of the side and underbelly.

    D&D 5E DMG Excerpt: Creating a New Race

    I think compare to what's "in the world" is important for another reason: In the PHB it would be a very bad idea to balance race stats with role-playing penalties like "your race is often attacked on sight by most civilized races - you'll often have to hide your face to go anywhere or you will...

    D&D 5E Dungeonscape no more?

    For now, I know they've had issues with development, but eventually it should see release to Mac.

    Roll20 publishes Game Percentages... Pathfinder at 25%

    Yeah, I'm actually surprised by how quickly new Pathfinder games are dropping while new 5e games are rising just as quickly. Pathfinder is in no danger though. It may not be number one in the 4th quarter (in terms of sales), but it's still a great game with loads of players.

    D&D 5E Bone Devil

    I remember thinking as a kid that in the 1E pic, it looked like he was attacking with a giant safety pin.

    D&D 5E Bone Devil

    Yeah, I never noticed that either. How strange. I do like the wings and look of this edition's Bone Devils though. Simply because I can imagine them crawling across a large cavern's ceiling in the dark, stalking the unaware PCs. Of course once the PCs do notice, it's time to swoop down and make...

    D&D 5E What the Monster Manual is missing

    I was hoping for it to be more like the 2e Monsterous Manual. I understand why they concentrated on number of monsters instead though, especially after people being disappointed with the limited selection of monsters in the 4e MM, and the fact that they aren't going to be publishing a ton of...

    D&D 5E check it out honkies!

    I'm not one, but I clicked on the thread anyways. See the "I have the Monster Manual!" thread for proof. >_>
