    D&D General Ships & spellcasters

    Introduce materials that are more resistant to fire, being put on fire? So the sails are more resistant to fireballs, but still can be shredded with grapeshot?

    D&D General Which 3.0/3.5 Prestige classes would make good 5e subclasses? (+)

    Master of Many Forms (Complete Adventurer): Druid that gains the ability to wildshape into Oozes, Plants, Fey and Dragons. TBH, I'd mine a couple of subclasses out of this. Maybe a "Circle of Decay" that gains Ooze, Vermin and Plant forms, another Circle for Fey and another for Dragons. ...

    D&D 5E What Paizo Adventures (Paths or otherwise) Have You Run in 5E

    I'm in the process of planning a Savage Tide Campaign. It's been a long time ambition, I had thought to adapt it for 4e, but never pulled the trigger, now I'm done waiting.

    Lilo & Stitch - Live Action Official Trailer

    Ugh ... I kinda like this? I'm so tired of live action remakes ... but this one might not be bad? Confusing feelings, will have to ponder it.

    First three episodes of S1 Andor are now free on Youtube, for those that haven't watched the show yet and want to see what all the fuss is about. Or just rewatch, like I need a reason to rewatch Andor, lol

    D&D General Favorite Iconic D&D Metropolis

    1. Sharn. Eberron's vibe just really suits urban adventuring, and I like Sharn's verticality and size. I will say I want a better view of the city, a lot of maps and art doesn't really sell how the "city of towers" would work. 2. Sigil. I like Mos Eisley style campaigns where any PC species is...

    D&D 5E 5e Psion+++++thread

    I still like the Mystic as a good first step towards a 5e Psionics system. I liked the use of power points and packaging related powers/spells into disciplines, I like that it's "chunkier" and yet allows a player to both specialize and not be thematically locked, which I sometimes see with...

    D&D 5E Which was the most recent Wizards adventure you consider a classic?

    Dragonheist worked pretty well for me, but my group really dug into owning and running their bar, I do think it needs work. And a better title, I wanted a heist, lol. Curse of Strahd was fun, I've played through it once. Funnily enough, we thought we had to avoid the castle until we had done...

    Precisely. That week between "Never More than 12" and the actual escape was so much fun.

    D&D General What's your second favorite edition of D&D?

    4e. It does what it does very well, it had a combat engine that sang. It also ... after a disastrous attempt to DM in 3.5, was the first edition that I felt comfortable DMing.

    D&D (2024) My preferred way of playing D&D 2024 is... miniatures or not?

    I don't really have a preference, but I answered minis because I do like using them on occasion. I like it helps visualization, I find I have to repeat myself less than with TOTM. And, in general, I missed the tactile nature of DnD, playing online during lockdown. The physicality of rolling...

    Unearthed Arcana Kiss of Mephistopheles: Unbalancing?

    I don't know if it's subpar, but I'm pretty sure it's not unbalanced in a too powerful way.

    D&D (2024) Githzerai Psion? Thri-kreen Psion? Where's My Psion?

    It's a pity they gave up on the Mystic. Because while it certainly wasn't perfect, I thought the general concept had a lot going for it. Packaging psionic powers into larger disciplines makes sense to me as a way to make sure that the caster was more thematic and giving psionics a different...

    D&D General What would your "fourth core rulebook" be?

    Tbh, a lot of the suggestions I've seen look best within the DMG, so my suggestion is to move the the magic items into their own book and use all that space within the DMG for optional rules, campaign and adventure building.
