    D&D 5E Number of Attacks in 5E

    Howdy- I know somewhere around here this has probably been addressed but I have no idea how to find such a thread, so apologies to the entrenched grognards around here for asking this question right off. Looking in the DnD basic rules (WoTC download) it seems every body only gets one attack...

    D&D 5E Legends & Lore 8/4/14: Here Comes the Player's Handbook

    Blah, Wizards had to include the munchkin player races Dragonborn and Tieflings which are not appropriate for my Greyhawk campaign. But everything else is kind of. Thankfully theres alot I like about 5E, it is I think an improved version of 3E and loses the superhero mentality of 4E. I did...

    D&D 5E The Paladin excerpt

    I don't mind either since only Humans in my campaign can be Pally's anyway. BUT I will use the article from an old dragon mag called Plethora of Paladins which is a pally variant' for evil and non human races. Scott

    [5e] - The Lost Mine of Phandelver

    I just picked up 5E Basic and I do agree that the adventure is just to MMO like. My plan is to run my own adventure set in Greyhawk in the Village of Hommlet which sits astride a river. The players first adventure will be against a Water Demon that has been recently terrorizing the local...

    That is correct.

    How Gary Gygax lost control of D&D

    Interesting, 1st edition was around for 10 years (1975 to 1985), 2nd edition lasted around 11 years, then 3.0 lasted 2 years, 3.5 4 years and 4.0 lasted around 2 years. Basically we went from a hobby company to a corporate publisher. Gone are the days of a stable game system, within the last 10...

    D&D 5E Rep & Mounts in D&D

    Howdy- First, rep would not be based on charisma but on the PC's actions IE they completed a quest by the mayor of Greyhawk City, so everybody would get positive rep points. Of course collateral damage such as burning down farmer johns barn while defending it against orc raiders could ding them...

    D&D 5E Rep & Mounts in D&D

    Hi- A few things I might add if I was to run a D&D 5E campaign might be reputation and the possibility for players to get exotic mounts. Has anyone attempted this before in D&D? Did it work? For me, the reasoning behind adding such variants is that perhaps the players will then have an...

    Castle & Crusades thoughts?

    Thanks Brian for the info, on a related note, I cruised ebay to see what was available and to my surprise most of the material is relatively cheap but it looks like the core books are in their 6th edition. Does it matter which edition you buy? Are they all the same with tweaks or have they been...

    Castle & Crusades thoughts?

    Hi ya- Was checking out other RPG's and came across Troll Lord Games Castle & Crusades products. I kinda liked what I saw, very much akin to old AD&D 1E with some d20 mechanics added in. I might buy the books but I would also like to know if anybody has played this product and does the game...

    Just for fun. Let's have a battle royal of the big 3.

    That I do agree with. Went to my local game store here in chicago (dice dojo) and was blown away by the amount of books put out for pathfinder. Went there to buy DnD 5E basic but they were sold out so settles on Zman games War of the Roses and Sushi Go. Scott
