    D&D 5E Cordon of Arrows and Invisibility

    I have to disagree with this statement. There is a possiblity that a character might see this, but it really depends on the speed that the ammunition moves and the ability of the player to perceive it. I suggest a chance but with a moderate perception check. It's even possible that the...

    D&D 5E Cordon of Arrows and Invisibility

    According to the spell description "one piece of ammunition flies up to strike it. [sic] The piece of ammunition is then destroyed." Therefore, I would argue that know arrow would remain to stick out of the invisible creature. I think this is a brilliant use of the spell. The arrow would fly in...

    D&D 5E Templates in the MM

    I would like to see a Zombie Template, I have a campaign I am running where I wanted to use a Kou-tao zombie, or a shark zombie and the standard zombie with a swim speed just doesn't make sense, there are benefits that a Kou-tao gets that is seems the zombie should get too. A Kou-tao skeleton...

    D&D 5E Encumbrance rule, do you use it?

    It sounds like you have been missing out on some great RP opportunities as well. My players all had keeps/towers/shops/homestead they were either building or maintaining. They would go out adventuring, but when they returned home they would have to deal with all kinds of neat/painful/wonderful...

    D&D 5E Encumbrance rule, do you use it?

    They simply didn't care, to them, they had made a killing and giving a poor guy a ton of money didn't matter to them. They were not worried about the economy, they only wanted to get home with their load. Regardless, 10K gp is still only going to buy 10K gp of stuff in any D&D version. Finally...

    D&D 5E Encumbrance rule, do you use it?

    For me encumbrance is really only critical with regard to what the players are wearing. On occassion I have had my group get weighted down in gold and I make it matter then, but I always give them a way out. O Once my group was dragging three chests of coins behind them as they exited a keep...

    D&D 5E Would you change a monster's hit points mid-fight?

    Yes, I did ask my group and that is a major reason why I established this opinion. My players don't get together to play the game, they get together because of the story we create as a group. If I were to taken a new group, I would ask them, but I would also work to impart upon them the...

    D&D 5E Would you change a monster's hit points mid-fight?

    I have to agree. When I run a game, the players and I are telling a story. When a player rolls a crit on the Orc Chieftain, I describe in detail what that hit looks like, and my players love it. Thats what brings them back to the table over and over again. Simply glossing over events takes...

    D&D 5E Would you change a monster's hit points mid-fight?

    As a DM, over several years, I have learned that what is that the story is more important than game play. I have been known to take all kinds of drastic efforts to maintain the story. I have added HP to bosses, and halfed damage to players whatever it takes to maintain the story and keep the...

    Need Advice: Goood Module for Teaching Pre-Teens

    Let me begin by introducing myself. I have played D&D since I was 10. I started with AD&D, moved to 3e, then 3.5e, avoided 4e, and instead moved to Pathfinder. I started running my own campaigns around the introduction of 3e and have even created a few modules which where quite successful for...
