I haven't been through many blow-ups in my D&D career, although one of them had me as the DM. Here's the most memorable one for me: I was DMing for a fairly mixed group of teenagers and adults. We had one player who was in their mid-forties playing an essentials thief as a sniper type. I've...

I don't think it's that they aren't there, it's just that they get mentioned because they are like the McDonalds of Eberron healthcare; it's easier to pay the DM House and get that name recognition than it is to live off of being a home-ran clinic.

I'm a college student and most of the people I play with are college students, so I've become accustomed to every single person who isn't at least ten years older than me being completely unreliable. When I run a campaign, I let anyone miss as many games as they want as long as they have a...

:.-( Out of all times for my wallet to get nicked, why does it have to be this week? I hope there is at least one copy of each left at my FLGS by the time I get my replacement debit card. Not that I'd ever use these books. I'm fairly certain that I'll never run this system and it's hard to find...

Savage Worlds: Realms of Cthulhu is pretty fun, and it's in a fairly easy-to-learn system. Lots of horror and it's a modern setting.

This one's been mentioned a few times, but I absolutely hate the divide between arcane and divine magic. Can't a wizard telekinetically set a bone back in place or rewind time on the person's wound to undo the wound? Does it really have to be healed by Jerry, the cleric of the...

It really doesn't look that different from any other forest, but this is Jukai. It's a forest in Japan at the base of Mt. Fuji, and it's exactly like any other forest. Except people like to commit suicide here. According to what I've read, some Japanese author wrote a romance story where the...

In the Savage Worlds zombies game I am playing in, I lost my ex-baseball player character. He died in a supermarket looking for medicines for some little sick girl. We also lost five others: a street racer, the streetracer's little brother (who went from being a hinderance to being a full PC...

I got all excited reading this and downloaded your playtest rules... then realized I don't know how to play Legend of the 5 Rings, so I can't do anything with it. Good luck with the playtest, though!

My first entry! A few weeks ago, we lost two characters in a War of the Dead/Savage Worlds. We had a Jamaican stunt double-actor, and an optometrist on vacation. We just made it off of the cruiseliner and escaped on a smaller boat, and the two died from previous infections. EDIT: So no one...

I want to at least try to play Bunnies & Burrows. It'd be the greatest experience of my life.

Personally I believe that clerics should wear cloth and fight with magic with little melee ability. We already have paladins, so I don't understand why we should have "armored warriors of faith" and "heavier armored warriors of faith". We should have paladins and the wizard-like priest to have a...

I don't see the harm as long as it is a purely out-of-game use like 4e using heroic, paragon, and epic tier. As for in-game, nope nope. You should come up with that yourself as part of your campaign setting if you want, but definitely not necessary.

I wouldn't be opposed to +N weapons as long as they aren't built into math, making it a lot more of a boon than it is in current editions without having it as a necessity. I would also limit it at a +2 bonus AT MOST, and that would be for the last tier of the game. Also, I think that masterwork...

I think it'd be best to have it majority based on class, probably around 80% or so, with 10% race and 10% background. My character could be a smite-slingin' and evil-detectin' paladin of Bahamut, but it's largely irrelevant that he was a goat herder before adventuring. Besides maybe a +2 to...

Dragonborn need to not exist, and have lizardfolk come in as a monstrous race (not core, though). Although I don't dislike the idea of half-dwarves, I dislike the term mul. I think that if half-dwarves are accepted in as a 5e core race, they should be called such and the name mul should just...
