    Challenging assumptions/tactics while giving hints

    I think I only ever saw Gremlins once, when it was a new release for rent on VHS.

    D&D General If you could put D&D into any other non middle ages genre, what would it be?

    Edit: Oops. I didn't mean to quote you Matthia. I like how that mirrors the recent rules that give vehicles the physical ability scores, and it gives a natural way to create KITT.

    D&D 5E Why the Druid Metal Restriction is Poorly Implemented

    :hmm: This explains my forum behavior.

    D&D 5E [Guidance] What, +1d4 to every check ever?

    So that's why Drake gave Nick Nurse that shoulder rub - and why the NBA banned him from doing so!

    D&D General If you could put D&D into any other non middle ages genre, what would it be?

    Yeah, what genre is Fallout: New Vegas? That's my second choice for an answer to the OP.

    D&D 5E Attacking defenseless NPCs

    To answer the OP: I'd ask the ranger's player to make an attack roll and damage if necessary, then give the other players a chance to do something if the orc survived. If the orc is still alive at the point, he'd behave according a roll on the guard personality table, which might have him...

    D&D 5E Abilities....Which check would you use?

    Oh, yeah, um . . . *scrambles for a justification to get the DM on board* . . . it's, uh, very well organized by environment (being a compendium written by rangers on their favored terrains) and then further sub-categorized by number of toes, size of print and CR. And yeah, it's huuuge. The...

    My opinion on D&D

    We're talking about the latest motion to ban paladins, gnomes and rapiers. We even named the bill after you. But since even you're against it, I see no reason for this committee to move forward on the motion. What's next on our agenda?

    D&D 5E Abilities....Which check would you use?

    But do you still have your sanity? I mean, if your guide's come in handy . . .

    Challenging assumptions/tactics while giving hints

    If I did that, I'd lose the Terminator reference.

    D&D General If you could put D&D into any other non middle ages genre, what would it be?

    That was one of the first examples that came to my mind. The other example that came to mind: A wrestling ring is 15 or 20 feet square. Add in the 10 or so feet around ringside and that's 8 D&D squares by 8 for the wrestlers to move around in. Plus the vertical if we're talking a cage match. Or...

    Challenging assumptions/tactics while giving hints

    Torgue Trolls! I love it! Ooh! And I'll have all the exploded bits squirm back together so the troll regenerates from the explosion like a T1000.

    D&D 5E Abilities....Which check would you use?

    While the Fool pulls out the Big Book of Wilde Beasts from his bag of holding and leafs through the pages until he finds an illustration that matches the tracks - automatic success.

    Sidekicks instead of Extra Attack?

    It's a neat idea, but since I don't have the final Sidekick rules, either, all I can really say is Extra Attack looks like a decent candidate for swapping out. It seems likely the end result is the player winds up taking the same number of attacks he would normally, and that shouldn't slow...

    D&D 5E Does the Beholder's anti-magic field move with it?

    Yeah, that's how I'd handle it. I don't think the AM cone was meant to be disrupted, though, since it's not actually casting the spell - and I've always thought it was meant to be a natural effect, an always-on inherent trait of the beholder - but I really like that possibility and would try it...

    Danggit, Tony Vargas! You weren't supposed to go respond to the thread. Now I can't whine so loudly about being ignored. :uhoh:

    Hey, at least your thread got replies! Nobody replies to mine :.-(

    Challenging assumptions/tactics while giving hints

    I'm going to ignore the whole metagaming conversation, because I've been in others before, and I know how they go . . . I'm metaforuming, you could say. :heh: I just want to say that I love the idea of trolls using fire repellent. For my own use, I think it's going to be fire repellent...

    D&D 5E Acquisitions, Inc.: First Impressions

    Replace Turmish with Lopango, and that's me! I really don't know why I chose one of the most out of the way places in one of the least supported continents as the base of my FR campaign. It might have had something to do with Boy Meets World. Or just because Volcanoes are cool.
