    D&D 5th Edition Dungeon Master's Guide

    5 out of 5 rating for D&D 5th Edition Dungeon Master's Guide As someone who stopped playing D&D during the 3/3.XX era and passed on the 4th, I'm glad the game has gone back to a more interpretative rules structure. While I know many players and DMs prefer a more codified rule set, I do enjoy...

    D&D 5E So who played 5E D&D recently?

    My group and I have been having a blast in my homebrew campaign. We've been playing every weekend like clockwork since the beginning of September. The problem now is that two other people want to run their own games within the same group! I have made time for one weekly game but I just don't...

    D&D 5E It's October 1. Do you known where your spell cards are?

    What makes these delays even more odd is that the character tokens were being sold at this past Gen Con by GF9 at WotC's bazaar. I know this to be a fact because I bought a few packs of tokens for my group. How is it these things were being sold at Gen Con in mid-August but they can't seem to...

    D&D 5E Which campaign setting material (AP or Sourcebook) would you like to see first/next in 5E?

    I picked other. I'd like to see a new mega-adventure in the vein of HofDQ for Ravenloft. I don't want to see a reboot though. I think there's enough past material to draw on and create a huge, new adventure with maybe a short player's guide of some sort that offers up some specific...

    D&D 5E Are you RETURNING to D&D

    Yup, I came back to D&D with 5th ed. I got into D&D years ago during 2nd edition and I gave it a go with 3.XX and its various knock-offs but I just couldn't get into it so I stopped playing. 4th wasn't my cup of tea either. During that time I played a few different RPGs however I really got...

    D&D 5E What are the "coolest" abilities in 5e?

    At tonight's Encounters game the DM brought up this exact point. He said he had made a point of double checking the AoO rules after last week's session so it seems that the jig is up.:( I still like the Polearm Master feat though and even if that combo wasn't legit, the AoO effect from the feat...

    D&D 5E What are the "coolest" abilities in 5e?

    I'm really liking the Polearm Master feat, especially the AoO that gets triggered for any enemy that gets within my reach. I created a human fighter for playing in Adventure League games at a local gaming store and I took that feat because I liked the extra attack it granted me. One of the...

    D&D 5E So who is playing 5E?

    I'm a longtime D&D fan but I haven't played or run a game with any seriousness since around the time 3.5 debuted. Recently however, I gave 5th edition a try at GenCon and I instantly liked it. 5th edition has been a very easy edition to get into and I've put together a group of five players who...

    D&D 5E D&D Spellbook Cards Preview

    Someone asked GF9 about this via Twitter yesterday. https://twitter.com/GaleForceNine/status/507557820808441856 It doesn't look like there's a set date for the release of the first wave of spell cards (or the condition tokens) other than sometime "this month". I'm surprised the condition...

    D&D 5E Does anyone who got an mm at Gencon want to offer up spoilers to us?

    Ah, that explains it! I looked at the basic update a couple of times thinking I missed it. I'll download the HotDQ doc then. Thanks! -JT

    D&D 5E Does anyone who got an mm at Gencon want to offer up spoilers to us?

    Thaumaturge Thanks! A follow-up question: what are the hit dice and the attacks on the rug? MonsterEnvy Thanks for the suggestion but, while I found the flying sword, I don't think the rug of smothering is in the basic update. -JT

    Advice On Conversions From a d20 Sourcebook

    Thanks for the reply! :) For the first adventures I'm going to be using the Dark Advocate, Bog Slain and Court of the Pale King out of the Penumbra Fantasy Bestiary but the rest of the monsters are out of the MM. I like a lot of the creatures in the PFB and I plan to use some more but I just...

    Advice On Conversions From a d20 Sourcebook

    I'm relatively new to D&D and I was looking to use Penumbra Fantasy Bestiary in an upcoming campaign. I'm only familar with 3.5 so I'd like some advice on what exactly I should be changing when using 3.0 monsters in 3.5. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. -J.Torres
