    5th Edition Ogre Characters - Help with house rules.

    In an evil campaign I am creating, one of the character races I would like to offer is an ogre. (Note, only 1 allowed in the party at a time and their class selections are limited). The hard part about this, is that I want to make this race to be available as a Level 1 selection, yet be...

    D&D 5E Icons of the Realms Set 3: Rage of Demons

    The set quality is indeed decreasing but hasn't hit horrible... yet. The Rage of Demons set did have both some pretty decent sculpts and some pretty poor sculpts. The paint application was below average on most of the minis -- which just makes a bad sculpt look even worse (Kobold Guard is a...

    D&D 5E Icons of the Realms Set 3: Rage of Demons

    Sadly the frequency is worse than that. A case will get you 1 or 2 ultra-rares. I encourage all people unhappy with this case distribution model to write Wizards of the Coast, and tell them so. (As I have also done.) Unlike WizKids, WotC does have a customer service department, and based on...

    D&D 5E Icons of the Realms Set 3: Rage of Demons

    Sadly no Demogorgon. The image on the box is very misleading and makes me wonder if that was their original intent. You can view a gallery of all the minis at my page here: http://www.minisgallery.com/dnd/index.html

    thalmin, would it be possible for you to post the amount of each figure you received? I would like to add your case results to a thread I started at: http://plasticrypt.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=5625&start=0&st=0&sk=t&sd=a Thanks.

    Congratulations to the 2015 ENnies Nominees!

    Does someone over there not like Paizo? Did people forget that Fantasy Flight Games makes some excellent roleplaying games as well? I can think of many Paizo products that not only should be in most of these categories, but would also likely be the winner of their categories. Its odd that...

    And then there were 8! On Chris Sims and Jennifer Clarke Wilkes' Layoffs...

    I am still a little confused with what their staff do there. I greatly appreciate the products they have been making for the 5th edition line, but I can't help but think that at Paizo the same amount of people would have been putting out 3-4 times the amounts of products with at the same level...

    D&D 5E Are attack rolls considered an ability check?

    After reading the text further on pages 175/176 where it references "Strength Checks" separately from "Attack Rolls and Damage", it does seem pretty clear now that attack rolls are not an ability check. This seems to makes spells like Enhance Ability to be of considerably less benefit than...

    D&D 5E Are attack rolls considered an ability check?

    Spells like Guidance and Enhance Ability, give bonuses on ability checks. Attack rolls are modified by the appropriate ability modifier (Str, Dex or spellcasting ability modifier for attack spells). Are attack rolls considered ability checks? PHB Page 174, indicates that ability checks are...

    The Kickstarter for a Pre-painted covered wagon has returned and has already funded. Take a look at this Kickstarter and help support it if you can. Its a great project and also has some other unique reward levels which can be unlocked (such as the camp tent).

    D&D 5E Is Monte Cook working on D&D 5th Edition?

    True, but there are some significant differences this time around. 4th Edition split the 3.5 Ed market. About half went to Pathfinder, and half went to 4th Ed. Hasbro further limited the support for their line by handcuffing what made 3.5 so popular. They changed the OGL model, making it a...

    D&D 5E Is Monte Cook working on D&D 5th Edition?

    Hasbro can't save D&D The needy greedy machine of Hasbro killed the spirit of the D&D line a long time ago! While the idea of making an easier version (less complicated) for new players to transition into, far too much focus was put into expandability rather than roleplaying enjoyment. Paizo...

    Confusion Spell too Powerful?

    I am running a Pathfinder campaign and I like how Paizo has nerfed a lot of the over-powered spells. In similar fashion, I am thinking of nerf'ing the confusion spell. I am quite certain that this spell is far too powerful and needs some nerf’ing. When I played my Beguiler in 3.5e, I loved...

    Sooo how is everyone liking the new ENWorld?

    I really think EN World should switch back to their old website format. It was very easy to see what was new for the day, and you got a quick little preview of the text. (And in some cases, a short paragraph was all that was needed). The second last change with all the windows took a little...

    Green Ronin and 4E

    Irony I can't help but feel a certain sense of irony in this situation. The GSL has been designed to assist WotC not only in protecting their intellectual property but to ensure they have control over any perceived competition. Without the proper controls in place, it's possible that another...
