    D&D 5E A full on battlefield encounter (not just a skirmish) at level 2/3 - any tips, ideas anecdotes, etc? xD

    Thanks Quickleaf!, thanks Ath-kethin! I've only recently bought the PHB, DMG and MM, so I'd rather not buy the Primeval Thule right now, but it sounds like they cover exactly my circumstance so maybe I'll consider the PDF. Can anyone weigh in on this recommendation one way or the other? You've...

    D&D 5E Sidelining Players- the Good, the Bad, the Ugly, and the Poll

    *Jumps into a chat halfway through* It made a fun story though. :'D I might steal the pain amplifying table idea, but not have it also amplify damage. I'm surprised by the number of people who chose option 1 on the poll. I don't have much experience with D&D yet but I think my players would be...

    D&D 5E A full on battlefield encounter (not just a skirmish) at level 2/3 - any tips, ideas anecdotes, etc? xD

    Ok, I ramble a lot, I can't help. I bolded the stuff that isn't just rambling. Anyone got any cool GMing tips or anecdotes that might help me out? I'm 5 weeks new to this whole "DM" thing, and due to a severe underestimation of the life endangering bravery/unwillingness to flee of my players...

    D&D 5E A freely-aligned NPC race who bind their elder's souls to constructs when they die - how would you do this?

    Oh wow. I knew joining this forum was a good plan, you've all given so many great ideas and references. xD I'm glad people are playing around with it too, hopefully that means it'll also capture the inaginations of my players. Or maybe they'll just go there to shop and ignore everything else...

    D&D 5E A freely-aligned NPC race who bind their elder's souls to constructs when they die - how would you do this?

    I don't know the Eldar reference I'm afraid, Obeliske. I googled it and found Warhammer websites, but I've never played. Is that what the Eldar do? I was looking for any insight on how similar things fit into D&D lore so that my use of souls etc. would be consistent with anything I pulled out of...

    Hi Tim. I hadn't seen that, no, though I'd heard them mention things in the works on the show. I'll be sure to check it out now though! C7?

    D&D 5E A freely-aligned NPC race who bind their elder's souls to constructs when they die - how would you do this?

    Thanks Danny, thanks satbunny! That's a lot of cool homebrew - I particularly like the snapping turtle halflings, inheritors and elemental dwarves. I hope you wouldn't be offended if my players come accross those guys some day? :P Alien greys are awesome too, looove the xfiles! xD 'This is...

    D&D 5E A freely-aligned NPC race who bind their elder's souls to constructs when they die - how would you do this?

    Hi, thanks for reading! Here's the deal - I like this idea and think that (though it's probably been done a thousand times before) my players will enjoy it, but I don't know enough about... anything really... in D&D lore to know how to implement it; I'm fairly new to the whole thing to be...

    Hey all. Critical Role got me interested in D&D and soon I will be DMing my first game! I came here because I know I'll have lots of questions and fun, possibly DM-eyes-only things to talk about. Also, so that I can shamelessly steal people's great ideas and incorporate them into the world I'm...
