The honest answer is we don't know. This week's catastrophic multiversal event was triggered by Phyrexians creating a World Tree that could open portals to anywhere in the multiverse, so it looked like non-planeswalking options for traversing the planes were now available. But (and spoilers for...

Oh yeah! I briefly wondered if the MtG and D&D multiverses could merge, but March of the Marchines does not seem to have brought the Magic multiverse to the D&D cosmology in any meaningful way, so that seems unlikely.

I'm currently running Die Vecna Die for my group so I couldn't be more hyped. Our campaign will end by the time this book is released, but Wizards following similar themes as my home games always excites me (and makes me suspicious that they've bugged my house or something, this is like the...

The tail end of Critical Role Campaign 1 has a Love Potion being used for laughs, and I think that was in... 2017? I'm not holding my breath on the Amazon series adapting that specific scene, though.

I am lucky in that the first campaign I ran reached its intended ending point, and I managed to complete another campaign and currently have two other campaigns that are on their way to be completed succesfully. But I had a fairly bumpy start after the first campaign for... Almost 5-6 years...

I was being facetious, I said a 3D VTT wouldn't be as easy to use as a 2D one in another thread and got dozens of responses saying I was wrong a couple of weeks ago.

But I was assured dozens of times that it's no different than using a 2D map and tokens?!!

If that's the case, they'll probably give the funds to our Red Cross equivalent, the Red Crescent. They also have some shady dealings ever since the president appointed a lackey to their head, but any aid is appreciated.

I hope cross-posting here won't be against the forum rules, but I just wrote a post about the twin earthquakes that struck Southeastern Turkey & Syria and linked an NGO that accepts some donations. It'd really mean a lot if you guys could help out as much as you can...

Friends, some of you may know I'm from Turkey, and 10 cities in Turkey as well as Northern Syria were struck by two massive earthquakes on February 6. In a rare disaster, we had one earthquake that struck at 4 AM, getting many people in the sleep, and a second one at noon that further demolished...

Says something that is presumably uncontroversial before going to sleep Wakes up to 14 notifications with multiple people quoting Uh oh.

Except I can take any decent top-down battlemap that I find on the internet, plop some simple tokens to it and call it a day with a 2D VTT. I don't always do complicated spell animations or dynamic lighting. But you can't have the equivalent of "just plop a .jpg from /r/battlemaps" with a 3D...

I am really big on improvisation, and I really can't see how a 3D VTT can accomodate that playstyle. I feel like it'd force every DM to be a level designer, and I feel like that's one step too far. Even Foundry VTT feels a bit too much sometimes with dynamic lighting (which requires me to put...

Well, they do need to say you have to start the license with "C.right WotC" since the OGL requires them to, but that's not the point! :D Even saying that the OGL was designed as a license for TTRPGs in general (and not just D&D) without naming names would've been better, IMO. Thank you for the...

So, the idea I have is essentially based on the idea that Teleport automatically succeeds if you have an associated object from the place you want to go to. So a foolproof method would be somehow sending a random item from the party's current location to the wizard, who can then teleport there...

The funny thing about that one was that it had no heist in it! I'm hoping this one will - but I'm not counting on it.

WotC updated their SRD page, with a new FAQ for the Creative Commons, as well as an updated FAQ for the OGL. I think these parts are quite relevant: (italics mine) The parts in italics show that the current administration in Wizards clearly believes the SRD 5.1-CC cannot be revoked by them...

On a completely unrelated note...

I mean, the phenomena that the laws of physics try to explain objectively exist, yes. But the rules are approximations at best. You could fit existing observed phenomena into any paradigm if you tried hard enough, so even the laws of physics are constructed to a certain extent. Doesn't mean...

There's making a nuanced and extremely specific case for why CC might not achieve what it claims (which is what pemerton is doing), and there's arguing that we're fools for thinking CC offers any protection at all.
