    D&D 5E Unexpected but (mostly) awesome new rules in Basic

    It does indeed; but I didn't mention it because it felt boorish to do so; and at any rate I am completely up front about having yoinked the essence from AU in the first place. My further tweaks to 5e will probably include putting all spellcasters on the same spell slot progression, with such...

    D&D 5E Unexpected but (mostly) awesome new rules in Basic

    Unless I'm not reading deeply enough into the changes, AU was exactly like this. A great leap forward in design. I wonder if it was Monte or Mearls' work...?

    D&D 5E 15 Petty Reasons I Won't Buy 5e

    This, and this alone, was reason enough for me to redesign 5e before it's even out. :) I kept thinking is was just me, that I was just being an obsessive systems designer. Thanks for confirming my bias (and delaying my campaign start that much longer...)

    A question for anyone who's *used* Combat Reactions

    With all due humility, I can say that Combat Reactions are probably my favorite addition to Trailblazer I've used them in every game since. My players tend to use them to hit (aid another for +2) more than anything. In fact you'll tend to see 2 or 3 support characters throw in to help the...

    He's an amazing artist-- although he started freelancing with Bad Axe Games (he has some great stuff in Grim Tales), he's gone on to bigger and better clients over the years. Nevertheless he still finds time to help out Bad Axe. Amazing talent and gracious, as well. It's a good mix. Scott...

    Incorporeal: I can't give you an answer as I'm at work-- I'm sure there's a value in Grim Tales. I would be surprised if it was not +1.0 CR. Medium Damage: 1d6 is appropriate for a Medium sized creature-- assuming bite and/or claws. Creatures with no natural weapons (the 1d3 you refer to) are a...

    The Teratologue is here!

    Short answer: If it's just one or two abilities, hand-wave it. Long answer: I always make it a point to give a shout-out to UpperKrust (Craig Cochrane) when I get into the nuts and bolts of CR valuation-- his work was the foundation of everything I do. UK values spell-like abilities at caster...

    The Teratologue is here!

    Thanks, Alzrius! Also of note, last week I had an international customer inform me that the original Trailblazer was not for sale through Amazon's local print-on-demand service. (And yet, the Teratologue was available...) This was certainly not by design. My deduction was simply that the...
