    D&D 5E Let’s Read Mordenkainen Presents: Monsters of the Multiverse.

    I'm curious what former Humanoids have been reassigned to Monstrosity, Fey, etc.

    D&D (2024) "The Future of D&D" (New Core Books in 2024!)

    When I heard the "a format we've never done before", my hope was immediately some sort of wiki-like site. Setting material would really benefit from hyperlinks and tooltips. When Liz made her comment about incorporating technology, my hope was further stoked.

    D&D 5E Zooming In On Monsters of the Multiverse [UPDATED!]

    I wouldn't be surprised if there is still an entry under Demon, Devil, Dragon etc with the information that applies to the whole group and probably a table listing all of the individual types with page reference numbers. Best of both worlds.

    RPG Crowdfunding News – a|state, Book of Gaub, Fading Suns, and more

    What, no mention of the new Forbidden Lands kickstarter? :)

    What Flavor Is Your Fantasy Cow?

    Surprised they didn't mention tribex in Eberron!

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana: Of Ships and The Sea

    I think it is intentional. The Wisdom (Nature) roll involves perception of the natural hazard rather than analysis while the Intelligence (Medicine) roll involves applying medical knowledge instead of treatment.

    Conventions All Report Record Attendance

    I would wager that the higher number is turnstile attendance and the lower is unique attendees.

    Conventions All Report Record Attendance

    Gen Con's 2016 attendance was 60,819, not last year's. Last year, they never gave a more specific number than "approximate attendance of 60,000 unique attendees" to my knowledge.

    Have You played In An Official D&D Adventurer's League Event?

    Adventurers League is the same grab bag you get at cons. You have a 50-50 chance to land a bum GM or a problem player who makes the experience poor if not utterly miserable. Of course, you can get lucky and get a really great GM or inspired role-players. Weirdly, in my experience, it is kinda...

    No WotC At Gen Con This Year?

    I think they are misguided in this regard. One of the most common complaints I heard last year about the All-Access Pass was people who had brought family or friends to try out D&D at Gen Con and were disappointed at how lackluster it was compared to the previous year. Gen Con is the biggest...

    The 'New' World Of Darkness Makes Way For Chronicles Of Darkness And The World Of Darkness

    Short version: Old World of Darkness = World of Darkness New World of Darkness = Chronicles of Darkness Nothing else changes. This is just to clarify branding on the two lines.

    I have precisely the same problem on my Note 4. I have yet to be able to read an issue.

    D&D 5E 5e Greyhawk: What could it look like?

    I fully intend to make Greyhawk the setting of my first D&D Next campaign, so I have been re-reading the old 1983 box set books. As someone pointed out, apart from some organization issues, they are surprisingly solid and mostly setting material. I have no pressing need for an official version...

    Dave Arneson's Personal RPG Collection For Auction

    It would be cool if some of the stuff ended up at the Strong Museum of Play in Rochester, NY.

    Prose, Terminology, Fluff, & Presentation: Spreadsheets or Haiku?

    Look closely at the two examples given. If you remove the mechanical parts, the only difference is that that description for the 4E version is much more evocative and the 3E one includes spell components. That's it. Everything else is just rules. The 4E one is shorter partially because the rules...

    Epic! Yes. Fail? Maybe.

    This suggestion is all kinds of awesome. Just a shift in the incentives. :) Consequently, I am in the process of reading Legends of Anglerre, which seems to do this stuff right. It has rules to stat out constructs, military units, and organizations (from a guild to an empire) and its support...

    H.A.R.P. Anyone? (FREE R.P.G. BOOK)

    Some may ask that you give them the book because they have no money or deserve it. This does not apply to me. I am a white male with a good job who has plenty of money to indulge his hobby. I do nothing to contribute to society, I merely attend meetings as part of the white male conspiracy to...
