Kudos to WotC. This seems to be a very genuine and inclusive announcement. It's not a brand hitching onto a sensitivity bandwagon, but an aware, concerned, and self-aware group of people trying to be better and make the world a better place. Proud.

Nearly every Eberron adventure in Dungeon is top notch. Steel Shadows was mentioned. I also recommend: Chimes at Midnight trilogy Murder in Oakbridge Riding the Rail The Aundarian Job Any of the 3.5 books are great sources of information. Reading through the original 3.5 Campaign Setting and...

Love it! I have some of the same nitpicks: visited links in grey against black, and other things, are hard to distinguish against the background. Now just waiting for the Classic yellow and orange!

Go for it. 5e is meant to be tweaked in this way. One could just as well argue the Painting skill should be broken up into watercolor, oils, acrylic, and even spraypaint (I'm sure I'm missing, I don't know, a hundred other art styles), all of which require different tools and different...

Just a bump to voice that I am still hoping to see the same thing. In particular, ENWorld's "Legacy" color pallette and the classic black/orange.

Reading through the Sharn section is painful. Riddled with typos, numerous and needless, "this will be detailed more in chapter X," and text is repeated, sometimes word for word, no less than three times, for practically every location mentioned. Not to mention the number of times some of the...

Too bad WotC didn't do the same.

I'm a huge fan of Eberron, and very happy this book was published. With that said, I'm disappointed. Of course, it's great having the mechanics for races and dragonmarks, for example, though uninspired. It would have been nice if they had pushed the envelope creatively a little bit further...

So, isn't a level 1 wizard with an 8 Con at full fighting ability with only 5hp? What about a 1hp commoner? It's not like these characters are walking around bruised, bleeding, and exhausted every moment of their existence, just because they have single digit hit points.

Not sure if it fits what you're looking for... but what about something mundane? A ring made from the stem of a flower, given as a gift from to someone's first love. A shard of glass from a broken vase thrown in anger. A piece of bread, that was still warm when handed to a beggar. Perhaps...

It's been like this for a while. I think when they first released Ravenloft, all those categories appeared.

IMO, the whole concept of "canon" is losing meaning as we head into 2020. From 5e's inception, and to its benefit, the designers have recognized that "every home game is their own," and the prevalence of blogs, streams, twitch have only enforced the concept that every group will forge its own...

Eberron simultaneously has elements of post-Civil War, post-WWI, AND post WWII, with smatterings of Medieval, Renaissance, and Modern. Eberron is not a reflection of a particular time period. It's its own thing, with a little bit of everything.

Keeping in mind that the success of Wayfinder's was most likely an influence on a full-fledged book getting published. The whole, "vote with your dollar.". If we hadn't bought Wayfinder's last year, we might not be seeing Eberron today. Also, races (including dragonmarks) will be the only...

Does anyone perhaps have a link to the old Legends & Lore (I think?) articles from 2011? I know Mearls was writing them, then Cook for a bit, then back to Mearls after they made the Next announcement. It'd be fun to read through those again, knowing that they were already talking about 5E at...

On this note... When did development of 5e really start? I remember seeing online articles about house rules and spitballing and "bringing D&D back to its roots" around the time of Essentials. When was the first hint?

(4), with a little bit of (3) mixed in. It's not that "No one who wants to play an artificer would want a pet." It's that "There are those who want to play an artificer without a pet." Since the pet is baked in, I cannot play an artificer without a pet. I'm in the camp that fell in love with...

No. Pets. Either one subclass, or an artificer version of find familiar. Everything else is just tweaks.

Manual of the Planes Arms and Equipment / Stronghold Builders (and throw in Weapons of Legacy) Psionics Book of Challenges / Dungeon Delve Epic Level Handbook + Elder Evils

I like the "The campaign theme will be like <movie/book> meets <some other movie/book>" My last one was "Star Trek meets Across the World in Eighty Days"
