    D&D General DM Says No Powergaming?

    Agree that "powergaming" is too vague. I did once start as a player in a campaign with 10 silver pieces, the clothes on my back (no armor), and a dagger, homeless with one day of food. We were freed slaves. That definitely slowed down any powergaming.

    WotC WotC adds four new physical and digital bundles.

    I can see the point of the creature one, for sheer portability going to a convention, etc.

    WotC WotC adds four new physical and digital bundles.

    Maybe I am failing my perception check, but I didn't see a list or even a count of the creatures on the clings?

    WotC WotC adds four new physical and digital bundles.

    D&D Campaign Case: Creatures Bundle says "5 sheets of clings". Umm, how many creatures? Every one in the MM? Any duplicates? Need more info.

    D&D 5E Bugbears and Borderlands Launch day!

    I'm in for $5, only a dollar for the pdf was too cheap.

    Less fun.

    D&D General Life-size Quasit from WizKids

    Too ugly. If it were an imp I would be tempted.

    D&D 5E Unused Content Second Poll

    No option for mixed experience, Find Traps was meh, but it worked, Spare the Dying was great and True Strike I never saw used.

    D&D General Dave Arneson’s Pitch for the future of TSR and D&D in ‘97 to Peter Adkison

    I just finished reading the Flint Dille book. I enjoyed it, he worked with a lot of interesting people and has a ton of stories. There is a chunk of D&D in there, but also other things. I think my favorite story was from Jack Kirby (prolific comic book artist), who said: Question "When was the...

    D&D 5E A Monk Based on Kvothe, from "The Name of the Wind": How Do?

    Your answer should be "I can't give you any concrete suggestions until Rothfuss finishes the trilogy." That should buy you at least another decade! :) You are right, Kvothe in no way resembles a Monk. I guess you could build it out with skills, backgrounds and feats? Entertainer is his main...

    D&D General The Venn Diagram of D&D and Magic: the Gathering Players

    I play D&D. I used to play MtG decades ago, but the treadmill got to be too much.

    D&D General When D&D Co-Creator Dave Arneson Asked WotC For A Job!

    In a seminar, Ben Riggs described the check Arenson got as "low six figures". Apparently Gary Gyax and his ex-wife also got similar checks.

    D&D 5E Common house rules for 5e.

    In the game I am currently playing in, the DM has instituted a rule that if you go to 0 hit points, it takes 10 HP of healing to bring you back to 1 and consciousness. This prevents the silly "whack-a-mole" chumbawamba.

    D&D 5E Stormwreck Isle Starter Sets show up in the wild!

    I now remember why I never shop at Target: Target #1, 10AM, no Stormwreck, no spot on the shelf where it should be. Target #2, 2PM, website says they have "limited supply", but nothing. I swing by my house, regroup, and check the website. One more near my house that says they have 4 in stock...

    D&D General "As a Player, I Alert the DM When I Notice Them Make a Mistake in the PCs Favor" (a poll)
