    A First Look at 2d20 Fallout from Modiphius

    Rolling low is just not something I can get into. I get that there is nothing wrong with it. I get being number 1 at something means your the best. I even get that for years i played 1e and 2e D&D with roll under mechanics. But psychologicaly i just dont like it. I want to roll high numbers.

    Luke Crane Resigns From Kickstarter

    Job first friends second is my motto. Its a lot easier to make new friends than it is to find a new career. And any real friend will understand why you are not risking your career for them.

    Blog (A5E) Let’s Look At Combat Maneuvers

    I am a big fan of spells and manuvers by level not alphabetically. When I am looking to pick a spell I hate having to flip from the list to the spell, back to the spell, then back to the list. I preffer 1e and 2e model where all the spells were by level and I could just read them quickly...

    My intial gripe is it doesnt have a reprint of the poster map in the book. I dont like to take the posters out, but it looks they only reprinted part of the keep in the book.

    Playtest (A5E) Level Up Playtest Document #13: Cleric

    I am not saying people don't use all parts of the weapon, obviously when the opportunity presents itself they strike with the pomel or the butt of a weapon. I am saying that if two people get in a fight with shorts swords and one can only use the flat or the pommel they are going to be at a...

    Playtest (A5E) Level Up Playtest Document #13: Cleric

    The vows of Chastity and Mercy raised some issues for me. Chastity can be a hard vow to keep in real life, but easy as heck for your PC so no real downside. Mercy is fine, but disappoint to read you are keeping one of my least favorite rules in 5e, the ability to decide after you strike...

    Playtest (A5E) Level Up Playtest Document #12: Bard

    I have never seen "townie" as a positive always a pejorative. I like to go with the the bard as the story teller and font of inspiration but not a performer i can work with this.

    D&D 5E Solasta: Crown of the Magister Gets a Dungeon Builder

    I would love a VTT that runs more like a video game and allows the DM to automate some enemies. I set the orcs on autopilot and concentrate on running this evil wizard during combat makes it a whole lot more fun.

    Start Your Journey Into Symbaroum

    A lot of people are loyal to brands so a Ford guy wants to drive a Ford and even if another car company makes a better model or has some inovation they will want Ford to make a version versus buying another brand.

    Level Up (A5E) Level Up: An Art Preview

    I appreciate that folks like that style, and how it reflexes the way many people play the game. It makes sense that the art for a campaign like that would feature a bandolier of wands or an arm braclet festooned with potion viles. And for that style of game that style of art is realistic. I...

    Level Up (A5E) Level Up: An Art Preview

    I appreciate the realism in that the charachters are dressed like folks who might be adventuring, not hung with a thousand pouches, buckles, daggers, and such. But I honestly prefer black and white art to color in most cases.

    Playtest (A5E) Level Up Playtest Document #10: Adept

    100% on board with a more generic name for this and other classes. Love this and the barbarian rename. Any chance of renaming the cleric and the bard. (Might have missed this if you said so already).

    Great stuff. Glad to see random encounters be more than just 2d8 orcs attack. Hopefully this section is 700 pages of dense content.
