    I suck at DMing. Can anyone help?

    I used to DM all the time when I was younger, then took a break from D&D for a few years as my original gaming group graduated college and moved out of Connecticut to other environs. When I got back into gaming, I was part of a group that had a fantastic full time DM, so was happily a player...

    How common are "adventurers" in your world?

    I'd go with about as common as professional athletes - however, while you may think of just the NFL, NBA, MLB and NHL, you also have to remember there is Canadian Football and Arena Football, various European and Asian pro basketball leagues, not to mention the WNBA and women's pro leagues in...

    Sneak Peak of Realm Works on the Web!

    This looks promising. The way I see it, it's a mostly campaign manager that can help you with tracking locations, NPCs, villains, monsters, etc, within a gaming world, right?

    GIANTSLAYER Adventure Path Is Nearly Here!

    I get what you are saying, but I think with Reign of Winter, the antagonist was going to cause a world-wide winter if she was successful. The Wrath of the Righteous AP was one where failure meant the world would be swarmed by hordes of demons. Saving a few kingdoms seems kind of small scale...

    [SPOILERS] THE BIG BANG THEORY Mentions Gary Con

    It was a pretty good episode, though the Zombie escape room was kind of a disappointment.

    D&D 5E Sell me on the Realms

    I tend to prefer lower magic games, but I also don't mind the Realms. It's got a lot of detail, some great locations, some cool organizations and a lot of history. If I were to DM the Realms again, I would normally issue a disclaimer up front that this is NewJeffCT's Forgotten Realms, which...

    The 5 Best D&D Miniatures

    the farmer is a good one, but I'm not sure I'd rate it #2 overall. Love the Champion of Elistraee for the action pose and long, flowing drow hair.

    D&D 5E My Crazy Theory about 2015 5e

    great show Shasarak, but that was also a comedy mocking most of the ways of D&D.

    D&D 5E My Crazy Theory about 2015 5e

    I skipped several pages in the middle here, but going back to the edition 5.5 or 6 idea, I would say that there is no way it would happen any time soon. Back in 2000 when 3E was released, WotC also said that they would be compiling all the errata and feedback and come out with a 3.5E in a few...

    D&D 5E My Crazy Theory about 2015 5e

    agreed - putting a white actor in black face is just begging for bad publicity. Might as well pre-book the actor, director and producer on with Rev. Al Sharpton, Oprah or Jesse Jackson to apologize & explain.

    The new Hobbit movie

    I never bothered to see the first two movies in the theater, as I was kind of turned off by them making 3 movies out of a 300 page children's book. I saw them on DVD, though, and was kind of underwhelmed by the first two movies. Didn't hate them, but just had that "meh" feeling about them...

    Pathfinder 1E Best Adventure Path?

    Kingmaker was very popular when it first came out, as it gave you more of a sandbox to play in vs previous adventure paths that were more linear in nature. So, I think a lot of people liked it just for that reason. However, IMHO, it has some good material, but some of the adventures I thought...

    GIANTSLAYER Adventure Path Is Nearly Here!

    Yes, there are good giants and that could be an interesting quest, but is it worth a whole adventure within an adventure path? And, then you have the other 5 adventures still as well. There was a classic module in the past "Against the Giants" which is well regarded. However, it's definitely...

    GIANTSLAYER Adventure Path Is Nearly Here!

    I hope they can give it a good amount of flavor, as i think battling orcs, and then different types of giants, could get old pretty fast. Also, the premise of saving the lands of the Inner Sea seems kind of small scale - how about saving the world of Golarion itself?

    Top 10 Classic D&D Movies

    I'd also include Willow, The Lord of the Rings movies, Clash of the Titans (the original), Ladyhawke, The Princess Bride, Conan (the original), Golden Voyage of Sinbad and Excalibur. I keep Conan on the list, though when I rewatched it a while back, I didn't think it held up all that well...

    Kingmaker Adventure Path

    3 out of 5 rating for Kingmaker Adventure Path The first two adventures are very much a sandbox, but my group went straight for the main villain each time, no matter how often potential side quests and other options came along. Only once the group defeated the Stag Lord & his cronies in book 1...
