Now that's interesting! I wonder if adding this appendix was a response to gamers who were upset because of the move of an Elemental Evil adventure from Oerth to Faerun or if it was planned for the beginning to be ported over to whatever setting a DM wanted. Either way, if these big APs are...

Regarding v1.04, I think there's another bug: 2nd level Warlock selects two invocations but the sheet only allows for one.

Monster Mythology from 2nd edition. Its mainly fluff but I find it an enjoyable read whenever I pick it up and I have been using it heavily as I go about building my homebrew world for my 5th edition campaign. I'm hard pressed to find a section of that book that isn't useful.

Adventures + new monsters = me as a happy patron All kidding aside, I'm very much liking the sample articles; the trinkets article was particularly fun to read and will be easy to implement into my campaign. I'm looking forward to the next batch of content. P.S. - Okay so maybe I wasn't...

This is a fantastic sheet, thanks for sharing. I noticed that the elven weapon proficiencies are not calculating for the Eladrin. I was making an Eladrin wizard and when I entered the longsword and longbow as weapons in the Attacks portion of the Start tab the calculated data lists the...

The third in Necromancer Games D&D 5e Kickstarter trilogy (5th Edition Foes and Quests of Doom are already available), Book of Lost Spells has popped up on the Frog God Games website. "Ask any wizard. There’s no such thing as too many spells. This massive compendium of magical mayhem ought to...

So then you're the fellow that wrote the foreword? That's fantastic, congratulations! I've only barely skimmed the book but there are some interesting bits I think will wind up in my campaign. As I mentioned in my initial post, I'm glad to see the little touches such as spells by school list...

Let's call it great minds thinking alike. My original plan was to run The Darkening of Namjan Forest first and then Bad Moon but the more I looked at it, the more Namjan seemed a better follow-up adventure. Plus, scaling Namjan up a few levels of difficulty is fairly easy what with all the...

A new survey is up on the official D&D website. It looks like its covering the classes not in the last survey and the recent Eberron material. WotC also reports on what was learned from the last survey. "For our second survey, we’re focused on the final six classes in the game and the Eberron...

The mass combat rules have been posted in the latest Unearthed Arcana. "The D&D combat rules in the Player’s Handbook are designed to model conflict between small groups—an adventuring party of perhaps three to six characters against monster groups that rarely exceed a dozen creatures. Combat on...

Continuing the Quests of Doom series is a great idea and I hope that is what you guys opt to do. So far, Lycanthropes & Elementals and Bugs & Blobs have been my favorites so I hope to see those sets continued. I’m not sure what is meant by side lairs but a series of short encounters would be...

I'd like to see another monster book or two. Maybe a Tome of Horrors Complete for 5E, or a follow-up to Fifth Edition Foes. I definitely want to see more adventures in the vein of Quests of Doom. So far I've read through The Noble Rot and Bad Moon Rising twice each and I've begun prepping...

There's a new column by Richard Whitters on campaign building. The focus seems to be towards new DMs in much the same way as Rodney Thompson's initial article was. The random NPC portrait chart is pretty cool actually.

Adding onto the post by MerricB, here are the quests in Vol. II Quests of Doom Vol. II Bugs & Blobs Of Ants & Men by Bill Webb: levels 4 to 8 Demons & Devils Pit of Despair by Casey W. Christofferson & Bill Webb: at least 13th level Giants & Dragons Dread Dragon Temple by James M. Ward...

This might be a better path for the designers to take. For the record, I have zero interest in a 5.5 set of core books too. However, I do hope they continue releasing variant rules and world-specific packets (like the Eberron stuff).

That's what I got out of the article as well. I think, sooner or later, we'll see play test documents for sub-class changes or changes to the concentration rule, etc. Then, what with all that talk about a "living rules set" awhile back, I can see changes to the core design of 5E becoming a...
