    D&D Movie/TV Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves At San Diego Comic-Con

    I see a trailer on YouTube: Edit: Whoops, taken down already. But it was good! Edit2: If you see a black dragon spewing acid on fighting armies and a white owlbear, that is it.

    D&D General Next million dollar kickstarter? Wyrmwood Game Master Screen.

    Honestly, it looks like 3 kitchen door fronts bolted together. Normally I really like Wyrmwood stuff.

    D&D 5E Re-gripping your weapon uses an object interaction?

    It's not a very good ruling. A bow is 2 handed. Do you have to put it down to retrieve an arrow, then pick it back up? What do you do with the arrow if both hands are on the bow?

    D&D General Did You "Return" because of some Edition of D&D?

    Played AD&D, 2nd, 3rd, 3.5, the I was one of those that really tried to like 4th but it never worked for me. So we continued on Pathfinder until 5e came out.

    D&D 5E The Chronicles of Aeres, a huge new high fantasy setting for 5E, is on sale all this week

    Will there be more 5e modules/adventures released for this setting? I am reading through it now, very enjoyable.

    D&D 5E What level did your MOST RECENT campaign get to?

    15 for the last one, but the average is more like 9-12.

    D&D 5E Phandelver Nothic

    My players came in through the tunnel and the Nothic contacted them (one spoke undercommon). He had a grievance against Glassstaff, who had not been feeding him "fresh" meat. The Nothic told them about the roast chicken they had for dinner, then it threw out an arm and made it boil with necrotic...

    D&D 5E Miniature Collecting/Use and D&D

    I have a lot of miniatures and thousands of dollars worth of Dungeon Forge. Not getting to use it much at the moment. How about suggestions on how to add to our collection? As an example, I ran Tomb on Annihilation, found it was cheaper to buy the deluxe board game with the pre-painted plastic...

    D&D 5E Stargate D&D 5e details from gencon

    I want to know if there will be miniatures. And if they will be pre-painted or not.

    D&D 5E New Campaign Help

    Cats, cats are important. There will be cat cemeteries, cat embalmers, cat coffin makers. There is some indication that all cats were called the same thing (meow), and they didn't have individual names because they were basically splinters of the deity. Putting cats in danger would be a great...

    D&D General What’s the weirdest mount you’ve ever employed in-game?

    AD&D 1st edition hardback, it was a subterranean lizard that could crawl on the ceiling. This was for a character who had a flaw of being allergic to horses.

    D&D 5E [SPOILERS] Enhancing Tomb of Annihilation

    I used a different spell list from the book, found it through Google search. It was much better than the list in the book. Also, check Acererak against a stock Lich in the MM, he should be better. I recall they botched his stat block. Even with 3 legendary extra actions Acererak can't keep up...

    D&D 5E [SPOILERS] Enhancing Tomb of Annihilation

    The description is a dozen giant undead turtles carrying a platform with a stone fortress on top. If it were me, I wouldn't leave a lot of space between the turtles, either a 4 by 3 or a 3 by 4 grid. Realistically they were tied to the platform and stopped moving in formation. It's all ruins...

    D&D 5E [SPOILERS] Enhancing Tomb of Annihilation

    A skeleton key doesn't set off some traps. Withers has the amulet that gets around a certain restriction. I don't see much else. I play the Night Hags as cowards, like Dragons. The book says if you kill two the last will bargain for her life, so they are not fighting to the death. Which could...

    D&D 5E [SPOILERS] Enhancing Tomb of Annihilation

    Being in the Border Ethereal doesn't do much for the hags. They can't leave the tomb that way. In the write-up for spells with restrictions in the tomb it says "The caster enters the Border Ethereal but can’t move through surfaces or doors in the tomb. Ethereal characters might encounter one or...

    D&D 5E [SPOILERS] Enhancing Tomb of Annihilation

    sim-h is correct, I was ruling Inspiration wrong. In 2 of those cases I think they would have spent it and gotten advantage, the other one probably no. But there is one huge back-to-back encounter left, so the adventure may still get some of them. The players are (mostly) very experienced, they...

    D&D 5E [SPOILERS] Enhancing Tomb of Annihilation

    My group is only 1 or 2 sessions from completing this. Since the module proper doesn't start until 5th I ran Lost Mine of Phandelver to start them off and have some equipment. Lost Mine has the best amount of AL legal magic items and is my favorite intro for 5e. So far no one has died, although...

    Tomb of Annihilation Is Here - What Do You Think?

    I think this is a great book. It would be worth it even without the actual tomb and plot device of the Soulmonger. I consider it a bargain if you just use it as a sourcebook for Chult.

    D&D 5E [ToA] Heat & Heavy (armor)

    I could think of lots of reasons why Prestidigitation may not be that useful. Non-living, 1 cubic foot. It doesn't work on things bigger than 1x1x1 foot. So maybe your helmet, gloves or boots. A breastplate? Nope, also no plate mail, splint, etc. Chain shirt? If you take it off once an hour and...

    D&D 5E [ToA] Heat & Heavy (armor)

    Ok, so they need 2 gallons of clean water per person/per day. Medium/Heavy/people in winter coats have disadvantage. But there is another disadvantage, stealth. Wearing certain armor means you won't be making a lot of stealth checks, little chance of avoiding random encounters while doing the...
