    Chappie (trailer)

    It's written as Die Antwoord, and as a South African I would just like to say sorry. I cant finish watching the trailer, those awful accents make me cringe. We do not sound like that. Well, they might but it is by no means representative. Why anyone would put those... people in a movie is...

    D&D 5E [MERGED] Various crossbow/dual-wielding threads

    While I agree that games should be well balanced and have a solid mathematical foundation, I think this particular instance is a good example of leaving the decision up to the game table. I only wish there was more encouragement in the books for the dm and players to have these discussions. As...

    D&D 5E [MERGED] Various crossbow/dual-wielding threads

    I think the dual wielding crossbows and reloading is up to the DM. (intentionally probably) For what its worth, I allow it in my current game with a players gnome rogue. I asked my player how the character does it and he told me the crossbow has metal rings at the bottom of the handle that he...

    D&D 5E My biggest gripe about 5e so far, as a DM

    I just wish they would put more technical and concise version of the spell in the stat block. Then everybody would be happy. The same spell but easy to read at a glance. I'd actually even put that in my char sheet if I was playing a spellcaster.

    Capturing the Atmosphere of VRPGs

    Not exactly what you mentioned but... I was toying around with the idea for a game in the vein of shows like Sword Art Online and Log Horizon where a MMO becomes real and the players get trapped in it. The NPC's become real people and the worlds timed events stop or change in unpredictable...

    Pitch me basic Marvel comics for middle school library

    I would agree that some of the ultimate line is not really appropriate, and I find the Ultimates comic very unpleasant to read, but Ultimate Spider-Man in particular is an ideal comic for young teenagers.

    Pitch me basic Marvel comics for middle school library

    Ultimate Spider-man by Bendis and bagley is a really good introduction to comics and is fun and well written. Joss whedon's Astonishing X-Men run is also very good.

    Shortening P1 King of the Trollhaunt Warrens

    I ran this module a couple of years ago and I would definitely recommend cutting down on the number of encounters. As jodyjohnson suggested use only the encounters important to the story. If you don't want a very empty cave, you can replace some encounters with minion only encounters. I find...

    D&D 5E Legends & Lore 3/17 /14

    I would like to know what they plan to do (if anything) with D&D campaign settings that have different lore for monsters. Eberron for instance.

    D&D 5E 5E imbalance: Don't want to play it

    I agree with this. I'm not american and I have have trouble picturing distances in feet. Also, its inconvenient to divide all distance by 5 when using a grid.

    D&D 5E The number after "Hit: X" in the bestiary?

    I use the average damage a lot when I dm. It makes my turns very quick even with a lot of monsters on the board and I can run a game with a single d20.
