    D&D 5E What belongs in a $50 PHB?

    looking back at the 4e PHB, it was a 300 page book that had a readable layout, a good amount of options ( have only used the phb1 and essentials books for my whole 4e career) but some things confounded me, like having magic items in the players hand book.

    D&D 5E Animate Dead and Alignment Restrictions

    To quote from 4e's Heroes of Shadow, "(Necromancy), an ancient and reviled art, necromancy focuses in the ties between body, soul and animating spirit.

    D&D 5E I cant wait to see what they do with backgrounds... one thing i hope is that there is a slot for flaws

    and this is bad because.... also its not necessarily quid pro quo system... sometimes getting drunk or being a bad liar doesn't get you an action point... just like any other role playing rewards in any other dnd game its up to the DM to shape the story and hand out the goodies as he sees fit

    D&D 5E Are the WOTC forums down or is there some sort of site issues or do they just not care about D&D anymore?

    As an avid listener of the podcasts, especially the Acquisitions Inc ones, I find that the lack of podcast content coupled with the lack of attention the hype train has been getting is troubling. The funniest thing is that Next has been my favorite system so far... but just like essentials...

    D&D 5E I cant wait to see what they do with backgrounds... one thing i hope is that there is a slot for flaws

    For roleplaying purposes Id like to see a flaw mechanic in backgrounds... just... hopefully not to the point that it feeds min maxing, UNLESS it gives dm's a major thread to tug on.
