    DDAL Lost Tales of Myth Drannor: DDAL's "Secret" D&D Book For Gen Con 50

    To be clear, I've been a creative in this industry for 20 years, so I do have a thick skin about it. There is no book or product I've written that you can't just google and download illegally in seconds. I'm just saying this particular product is not backed by any company and there is very...

    Surrogates are now available

    Nope. Think of the surrogates as pre-generated characters. You can't change them. The s7 guidance offers more on how you can use their rewards however.

    DDAL Lost Tales of Myth Drannor: DDAL's "Secret" D&D Book For Gen Con 50

    I wouldn't call it taking it out on actual customers/fans. The admins donated the money to create the product. Our plan is that if we earn it back, we'll instead use it to potentially do another. If we don't break even, then we won't.

    DDAL Lost Tales of Myth Drannor: DDAL's "Secret" D&D Book For Gen Con 50

    See, this is why we can't have nice things. I'm not saying its anyone on ENworld that pirated the book, but its clearly one of a relatively small number of AL players that received it. I'm sure that person justifies it as "All media deserves to be free" or "Let's stick it to the big gaming...

    Racial Feats on D&D Beyond

    There are some rules items made by the D&D Beyond crew that are not published in any WOTC product. Those rules items are NOT D&D AL legal. If they are ones published in a WOTC source, like XGE, then they are legal. Greg Marks D&D Associate Resource Manager

    Exempting Races from the +1 rule

    More the later. We have a policy in place for a reason.

    Exempting Races from the +1 rule

    Just had that conversation again today (admins and WOTC). No one was in favor of exempting race.

    Exempting Races from the +1 rule

    That last time I checked, all 7 of the admins agreed with and supported the PHB+1 rule.

    Exempting Races from the +1 rule

    Actually the reasons for it were articulated several pages ago, its just some people said "I don't believe your reasons, so they don't matter." That said, the Admins have heard your feedback and note that in general, this forum excepted perhaps, the overwhelming feedback we get is that the PHB+1...

    Reminder on AL rule regarding reprints

    Story Origins are defunct. You may still choose a +1 as normal. Of course if your story origin was PotA and you were using stuff from the EEPG that would be your +1.

    Exempting Races from the +1 rule

    It is a WOTC mandated rule that was handed down. The Admins did not question the rule, because once it was explained alongside the design philosophy for all of 5e, we were in agreement that it was a good idea. (Mind you it was originally part of the Story Origin rule when this was done, but the...

    DDAL Lost Tales of Myth Drannor: DDAL's "Secret" D&D Book For Gen Con 50

    It will be PoD and we are looking at probably some time around Valentine's Day (-ish). As can be expected, we found a few minor things we'd like to tweak and so we are looking an releasing an improved version 2 as our PoD.

    Exempting Races from the +1 rule

    This is one quote (and not even the most recent mention of it) I recall one of the devs mentioning on social media. It is definitely part of their core design philosophy.

    Exempting Races from the +1 rule

    I think you are mixing up "design philosophy" with "game rule." I never said it was intended as a game rule. It a design philosophy that they only balance rules items against the PHB and the book that has the rules item in it. As for sourcing my claim, I regularly talk to the Designers and...
