    D&D 5E Disengage + Dash in same turn !!!

    Note that a Halfling can so this trick while passing through the enemies spaces as long as they are larger than he is.

    D&D 5E How many people start at 20th level?

    Back during 2nd edition I ran a game that lasted a long time. The top end characters reached 26th level with the bottom end reaching 18th or so. We started at 1st and even on death you got resurrected or rolled up another 1st level character. Still, you play the same game for a decade or more...

    Very excited! Love Rifts but have not bought a rifts book in 15+ years due to the old rule style. will buy everything Rifts/Savage worlds puts out! I already own everything for Deadlands reloaded and Hell on Earth Reloaded. Rifts is one of the best settings and Savage Worlds is one of the best...

    D&D 5E Down to six pages of prep work

    Ways I shaved off a lot of time(or a little that added up). Wrote down only differences in monsters verse normal monster of that type(like hit points) otherwise just listed a page number, also used post it notes to mark each page in the book, stopped with fancy cool looking dungeons that nobody...

    D&D 5E Down to six pages of prep work

    A while back I posted about decreasing my DM prep work with the goal of making it one page worth of notes ect along with 30-1 hour of time. I'm down to about 2 hours of time and 6 pages of notes so much better than it used to be but I'm still not there. 1 page are maps, 1 page is lists of...

    D&D 5E Dragonborn inter-species breeding?

    You know what you never see? People arguing over the merits of including castration in their D&D games. Somehow it doesn't come up despite it's real world history . Now myself I don't think it belongs in my D&D games but for those of you that do want such real world historical things in your...

    D&D 5E Low Level Wizards Really Do Suck in 5E

    Wizards are still by far the most powerful class in 5E. Granted just like in any edition it takes time to make them so and in 5E the end game difference between a Caster and Non-Caster is a lot smaller than it used to be BUT it still is there. During the last adventure paths latter levels it...

    D&D 5E Creative solutions to the hypothetical GWF/Sharpshooter issue

    I'm fine with two handed weapon fighters doing 10-15% more dps than the next maxed fighter(who has other benefits like more foes get hammered or whatever). More than 10-15% though and suddenly my games flood with two handed weapon fighters. I want each to have its own area but those areas don't...

    D&D 5E Dragonborn inter-species breeding?

    I don't role play cleaning arse activities even if it's assumed. Rape is the same way along with every other horrible inappropriate for our games subject.

    D&D 5E Low Level Wizards Really Do Suck in 5E

    Some casters enjoyed playing overpowered class's and find it harder to enjoy their now less overpowered state even though they are still number one. Got it. A lot of what they lost should have never been there. I'm sure that isn't everyone but there does seem to be a lot of now this...

    D&D 5E Dragonborn inter-species breeding?

    It's all fun and games until the DM tells you all three eggs in your body pouch are fertilized and you need to find somewhere safe to be durring the next six moths as you will be helpless and immobile. I try and never say no to what a player wants his character to do. That said, I don't think...

    D&D 5E Dragonborn inter-species breeding?

    Hahaha! Good times! Nothing like these kinds of issues to make you feel unsettled. Dragonborn procreation isn't a very well defined thing. If I was the DM, this is what I would do. "Your captive looks at you in confusion as you pull the egg from your body and begine rolling it across her back...

    D&D 5E So.... hide?

    That is the major reason to play a Halfling rogue. You get to hide behind other pc's! However.....sneak attack damage isn't dependent on not being seen or having the foe unaware of you if you are fighting in a group. You deal sneak attack damage whenever your rogue attacks a creature that is...

    D&D 5E Swallowing may cause blindness

    I don't get eaten by a kraken every day, but when I do, I wear Two-Titans Darkvision goggles. The only goggles guaranteed to let you see exactly what part of the stomach you end up inhabiting. Now in both Sexy Drow Purple and Ingenious Gnome Blue while supplies last.

    D&D 5E So,whats up with those half orcs?

    Well good to know it's just my crazy group!

    D&D 5E What are the roles of paladin spells?

    I can see your point. Really it might have been better to go with a Barbarian or a Fighter in that group as far as better defining your party role. Sounds like it might have been more useful in that particular group. Really though as long as you are having fun and stuff is getting killed then...

    D&D 5E So,whats up with those half orcs?

    Amongst my group there has been a realization for a while now that half orcs are overpowered. With the racial bonus to crit damage as well as the ability to keep on keeping on(drop to 1 hit point instead of falling unconscious once per long rest). Both of those abilities have been front and...

    D&D 5E Convince me to keep reading Princes of the Apocalypse (*significant* spoilers. Also my players keep out)

    I just wanted to say....I thought the whole situation with the heroes encountering untold minions of Evil and mayhem constantly kind of, a necessary silliness. Something we need to deal with because well, we are playing a game. Then I watched my local news last night. So in my very small part...

    D&D 5E Convince me to keep reading Princes of the Apocalypse (*significant* spoilers. Also my players keep out)

    Because you have to give up the exp that is why. as a player, keep your soulless npc's away from my loot and exp! THAT is why. Nothing worse than a epic breakout of evil and 50,000 npc ride in on their Dragon mounts and burn everything to the ground. Yeah thanks for that,NOT! Don't care about...
