    Now You Can SMELL Your Roleplaying Games with scentFX

    First reaction supressed... now im thinking this could be cool to get rid of the stench of cheetos, beer and pizza.

    WotC Wants You To Oversee Licensed Products

    WOTC may be a great place to work and great on your resume, but by releasing this talent, doesn't that ensure that WOTC will never have the "next big thing" ?

    WotC Wants You To Oversee Licensed Products

    They're going to need more than one person if this is anything akin to Apple's review process and OGL. If its GSL, one person could do it because no one will submit anything.

    D&D 5E Scaling Lost Mines of Phandelver for 1 or 2 PCs

    With 2 PCs I would just NPC a character for the 3rd. I ran LMOP with 3 and it was fine.

    D&D 5E Here's something that (to my knowledge) hasn't been brought up. About homebrew and classes.

    Being a SCIFI setting, I would do all new classes, even if they are just re-skinned 5e core classes.

    D&D 5E Kobold Press: Can They Take On The Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting?

    Matt, I didnt mean to insinuate that a Setting Sourcebook wasnt 'work'. It most certainly is. More of what I meant was that that continuity is vital to keeping the setting familiar. And with recent attempts at the realms with things like the Sundering and Spellplague, we see that massive...

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana is Here - and it's all about EBERRON!

    1. Plating would work fine in 5e. As beings made for war they were crafted to be instruments of destruction. Remember the time of their creation during a world war. So yes it makes sense there were plenty of walking suits of armor, they were the army for a nation. I love the idea of a thief...

    D&D 5E Kobold Press: Can They Take On The Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting?

    Lets not kid ourselves here. Besides stat blocks for NPCs and monsters and the occasional special race/spell, the BULK of the material generally goes unchanged from edition to edition in settings. Usually its just re-writes for consistency or editorial, or continuity.

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana is Here - and it's all about EBERRON!

    I wholly figured. I mean Keith doesnt own Eberron anymore. Wonder if because of the contest he even gets residuals, or if it was an outright work for hire purchase? In any case, like his site says, Mearls and team WILL listen to ideas for finalizing these mechanics, so speak out with ideas to...

    D&D 5E 5e feats - how many do you take? NPCs? Monsters?

    I rarely use an NPC as a PC, so no feats unless its something I want to showcase... like a merc who uses a polearm and is well known for it... As far as PCs and feats, it depends on character and build, but it seems my players are taking a feat about half the time they can.

    D&D 5E Highest Class Title and name level

    In my games I greatly encourage my players to "grow" their characters. One may star out as Kulrik the sellsword, but after his first adventure delving the tombs of the wastes and defeating the mummy lord Rahmukken, he is now Kulrik the Undaunted. Maybe after his next adventure he becomes...

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana is Here - and it's all about EBERRON!

    I still dont know for sure whether Keith was responsible for this design draft or not. His website lists the article, but is vague in his involvement. @Hellcow care to comment? Because like his website says, this is a draft. I think there are a few things people would like to see changed. -...

    D&D 5E Dungeon Using a Large Mat.

    When my group played through the World's Largest Dungeon, we used the maps provided but bought a piece of lexan, or plexiglass to cover them, and then used a dry erase to black it all out, and erased as we explored. A 3'x3' section at Lowes or Homedepot was like 15$ at the time.

    D&D 5E Fan work policy?

    IF you have no intentions of selling, or distributing said content. If you just post a short story of a beholder marrying Bigby then sure. But if you offer it as a PDF, or try to get it in an Ezine, or try to sell it, thats breaking the OGL.

    D&D 5E Any interest in a step-by-step guide to character creation?

    I think the PHB is pretty clear... but maybe thats for those of us familiar with previous editions. I support a Youtube video with a detailed walk through, animated, with highlights and such. It could really help bring awareness and new players a sense of confidence. Youtube has tons of "Lets...

    D&D 5E Fan work policy?

    The OGL cannot be rescinded or revoked(from previous editions). Many are using the base OGL terms, abiding by them, and feel that covers everything. You still should not use trade dress or trademarked items such as Beholders, Mind FLayers, etc. And many are not using the 5th Edition logo, but...

    D&D 5E Is Concentration Bugging You?

    See it during play first...Concentration is a great limiter in the game, and rarely comes up besides enemies getting hit, or casting other spells. So far, doesnt seem broken at all to me.

    D&D 5E The Mysterious 8th Ray

    If it's the 8th ray of the 8th ray from a beholder.... is it insta-kill?
