I'm usually GM, but when I'm not I'll see what everyone else is making and then make mine based on what holes need to be filled in the group. This goes for D&D or any other system that we are playing. Generally I can play anything so for me it is about the character's story rather than making...

In my games, I've determined that all PCs get a bonus feat at first level. It has not affected the power of the PCs much if at all and they get to refine their character concepts better at first level. Although honestly the players don't value getting to 20 that highly, most of them have taken...

Always have the intelligent monster use what is in their treasure hoards. Not concerned about CR change.

At that level, death is really only a nuisance anyway. And in most fights this would only come up at most 2 or 3 times during the combat....assuming the Barbarian was ever even reduced to 0 hp as they have a massive amount of hp anyway.

I have made a house rule for my game that anyone can cast and maintain multiple concentration spells with the following rules. 1. You must make a concentration check to maintain with DC = 10 + total levels of all spells. Fail and all fail. 2. At the end of a round in which you maintain MCS, you...

I've been toying with something like this..... - Leave hit point as they are. - A critical hit will not do extra damage, but do damage as normal and then victim takes one level of Exhaustion. - When character is at 0 hit points, hits inflict one level of Exhaustion, a critical hits inflict two...

Dlarun and other rare metals in Forgotten Realms are something I find I'm missing from 5e so far. Thanks for reminding me of them, I think I'll have to look for or work up something for them.

The current long running game (39 sessions now) started with Lost Mine of Phandelver, and I have thrown in a lot of side quests based on their backgrounds and several extra dungeons in the mix. However, two sessions ago, they officially started on the Horde of the Dragon Queen where I replaced...

I like the UA Storm Herald and really just wanted a bit more options of storm types and some final polish, so I don't think that this will change very much from the UA.....a fun class option. One quick non-sequitur, the guy who intros the videos, Todd, seems like he keeps saying: While I'm...

As he's describing it, all I could think of was "Paladin of Ilmater".....which isn't something I've thought of before.

Then you should check out Ed Greenwood Presents: Elminster's Forgotten Realms. It was put out a little bit before 5e became a thing and created by Ed Greenwood himself (I think in response to what they did to his world in 4e). Is is 100% fluff, no rules at all. It is filled with exactly the...

This has potential, although I was not a fan of the College in the UA, eventhough Bard is my favorite class. Will have to reserve judgement until the final version comes out....

Don't really hate this one, but it just seems like giving Tieflings that many subraces is kind of pointless and overkill when compared to other races, especially their opposite the Assimar. I think that Volo's Guide did the Assimar really well, and they are not all specifically aligned with...

That is exactly what I was thinking when he was describing it. Yeah, yeah, sure sure, Van Helsing, blah, blah.....Give me a WITCHER!

I think it was Dean Winchester who said:

So are there a bunch of these out there or is he (they) releasing only one a day?

So has anyone actually tried this out yet? I'm looking for some real world feedback. One of the players in my group (who also GMs) really likes this method and since I'm pretty open to trying it we are going to switch to using it this coming weekend. I'm fairly optimistic about since really it...

I just looked at my Amazon order as well. Can confirm that it currently has the ship date as Sept 12.

"Late August" is what I'm remembering too.
