It may be this is old news and I missed it, but I'll post it anyway, just in case. In the last "Mike Mearls happy fun hour" on Twitch, Mearls confirmed that there will be Dark Sun material for 5e at some point. He was talking about psionics and how to handle it in 5e when he said that when...

We're finally getting Dark Halflings! :cool:

It's also in Volo's Guide to Monsters. EDIT: Sorry. Replied to the wrong post somehow... :blush:

There's one more reference to D&D that I haven't heard anyone mention yet. The spell to deactivate the orb must be recited within 10 feet of the orb. Has to be a reference to old school grid sizing, or perhaps some element of a classic adventure? Also, it leads me to wonder where the words in...

Could just mean there's some Spelljammer information in MTF. It would fit the theme.

Well, to be clear. I absolutely agree with this! I never said Wizards suck or anything like that, and if you got that impression, then I have failed badly in my attempts at communication. I was speculating about whether it would be wise of them to reconsider one part of their design strategy...

I'm sorry sir, I'm not going to be drawn into that discussion. I know you got your torpedoes locked and loaded and you're ready and eager to fire, because you've been in this discussion oh so many times before. You know it all by rote. But that is my point. If something keeps coming up, it's...

Sorry, I just missed that one. Those where just random examples drawn out of a hat. Yeah, I didn't mean subclasses in general were controversial. I was probably a bit imprecise there. What I meant was that a lot of people seem to be unhappy with those spesific sublcasses that mixes martial and...

I think the biggest problem with this book really, is that it lacks anything that makes me excited. It seems to cover a lot of stuff that I never thought was missing from the game. Most of the content seems fine. I find nothing here to be hostile to (except the SCAG reprints - it's a really...

I play a lot with teenagers, and you know what? They don't go to the internet to find names. They use the ones in PHB (the most popular one is the elven name "Faen", which means Satan in norwegian and is a commonly used swear word, naturally). I have no idea why. They're supposed to be "digital...

What they should do is release one single rules expansion including race options, classes, monsters and whatever you need to play in all the settings (or at least the most popular ones). That way, you'd be able to use all the old settings without doing all that conversion work yourself, just...

Those casual, "lazy" players who don't want to put in any effort can't be GMs in a game using simpler rules either. It takes a great deal of effort to GM no matter what. Playing with teens, who are supposedly more convenience-oriented and less literate than the last generation (I'm not even sure...

Anyway, I have introduced lots of teenagers to the hobby over the last couple of years, and I really don't see the this learning curve barrier in real life. Most of these kids are instantly hooked when they give the game (5th ed D&D) a try, even though they don't understand all the rules at...

I am having a hard time following the logic of this article. Perhaps I'm stupid and don't see what is obvious to others but there are a couple of things I don't understand. First off, it's stated that there are more new players at events and clubs than there used to be, and less experienced...

Like others have said, I might buy it for the folder.

I think it looks really good. It's fast, and the interface is intuitive. Pretty sure I'm gonna be using this. At least when the official material is released. Does depend a bit on the pricing though. I've already bought all the books, and the thought of buying them all again is not so tempting...

Board games don't have ISBN-numbers, neither do card games or digital products. But, you know, dungeon tiles do. Also, I remember dungeon tiles being mentioned in one of the D&D surveys, where they asked what kind of products people would like them to make. The cheapest product first-thing still...

I'm guessing dungeon tiles, for at least some of the releases. The board games aren't generally listed with "wizard's rpg team" as authors, nor are any of the gf9 products. Also, it does say "RPG accessory", which seems to indicate it's some sort of... rpg accessory perhaps? The brgm edition tag...

This is very cool! And it's got Lemmy on the cover!

Looks like the right man for the job, really. Too early to tell of course, but I see more reasons to be hopeful than to be negative here. He's got experience from computer games, he's a D&D fan and he writes fantasy books for young people on the side. For a suit, that really is as good as it...
