    Spelljammer Is Spelljammer Coming To D&D 5E?

    Really? I have used that exact concept as my pet theory of the DnD cosmology for some 2 decades in my home games. What a nifty councidence if it actually becomes the official cosmology. Pretty sure I posted it on the WotC boards back in the day. But there is no way an obscure gamer just...

    "Are the Authors of the Dungeon & Dragons Hardcover Adventures Blind to the Plight of DMs?"

    Does DMsguild not fill the niches for you? I've enjoyed all kinds of interesting gems from it. Abeit, there is a fair amount of wading through the drek.

    "Are the Authors of the Dungeon & Dragons Hardcover Adventures Blind to the Plight of DMs?"

    As a read through, it has probably been the most fascinating and entertaining WotC adventure that I have, well worth the money. But if I ever run it at the table, there is no way I will be able to recall all the details with my DMing style. I do best with bare bones Caves of Chaos adventures...

    "Are the Authors of the Dungeon & Dragons Hardcover Adventures Blind to the Plight of DMs?"

    Xanathar's 18 Pages of What??

    I was disappointed at first blush. But the names have proven uaeful at the table. Especially the demi-human names. Nice to have a regular naming convention for tieflings and all.

    Worst Purchase Ever?

    Van Richten's Guide to Vampires. Such a pithy book that generates no ideas that inspire me. A boring book is fine if it has something table ready, even if crappy. But nothing in the Guide for use at the table. Just for inspiration, but it inspires nothing.

    D&D Campaign Settings you have played most in your life

    Going by DnD, any edition, meshing together campaigns as DM and player: 1. Homebrew by far. Lots of different worlds including the current game where a buddy and I hashed out just enough of a framework to play and are making up more as needed. 2. Greyhawk. Every couple years I get the...
