I'm afraid that money is the issue, but not in the way we are considering it. Let's say that WotC/D&D division must meet a 10M $ revenue goal. Let's say that they know that the Core books translated in German would sell a grand total of 30k copies, each generating 3$ of revenues for WotC/D&D =...

My cousin had a friend who could fly. [emoji23]

We already have a working translation in Italian. An official translation of the Basic Rules would be amazing. Sadly, the Italian publisher of D&D just went out of business.

Bard 4 Druid 1 Fighter 14 Rogue 11 You musicians are just a subclass!

It's not really a module (so I'm sorry if I'm off topic) but I successfully ran Umbra, an AD&D adventure from Dungeon magazine, with no changes at all (and I was quite happy to discover that all the Planescape monsters are in the 5e Monster Manual).

My group was 6 in the 90s (Rules Cyclopedia and AD&D 2e), 5-6 in the 00s (3.x), has been 4 PCs since (4e and 5e).

I would love: - more options for tactical combats, maybe with a gladiator fighter subclass (for Dark Sun) - regency rules for Birthright, that we can use with the mass combat module - spelljamming rules, Scro and Giffs for Spelljammer

I voted for Manual of the Planes, even if the 5e way I intend it is more as a guide to different Material Planes (Dragonlance vs Everron vs FR vs Dark Sun) and related external planes (Planescape) than the traditional. That guide would make regional setting books (Sword Coast) more useful...

Drizzt is still so 4e...

My own campaign setting, Alfeimur, is pretty low magic. In one of the published adventures the PCs had to enter a local lord fortress, and they had to avoid: - dogs: do not underestimate them. They smell invisible foes and can pinpoint hiding PCs to armed guards - bolted doors: each door in a...

Since as far as we know that is exactly whay they are doing (using the Chainmail script they had already prepared) I vote for the Dungeons and Dragons: Whatsisname title pattern. And I hope it will be something along the lines of Dungeons and Dragons: Lords of Waterdeep. That should ring some...

You sure seem pretty sure about that. I do not agree. You could establish the Forgotten Realms, the Zhentarim, the Harpers as a household name without using any of the established uberpowerful NPCs as main characters. The previous D&D movies failed for a LOT of reasons, starting from a...

Names, yes. Of places, items, people. Characters, nope. I would never make a movie about famous NPC X, but about Adventurers band Y (they can be you and your friends). See also Dannyalcatraz answer.

For a "generic" D&D movie I would stay away from established characters and narratives, saving them for when the franchise will be strong and successful. I would drop some names here and there, referring to fanous NPCs and places and definitely set the movie in the Forgotten Realms. My movie...

Also true. They desperately tried to use the same mechanic all over the place, but it clearly did not make sense. I house ruled that (also for my AD&D game) as soon as they published the article on Dragon on "how you can play 3rd edition now"

Dunno about that. Modifying the d20 rolled with a variable did not prove more difficult than modifying the threshold value you have to roll under. And it allowed for a lot of varied results to be neatly displayed on your character sheet. I think other parts were flawed (wounds and stuns) but...

So true. But it was released in a pretty difficult period for TSR, and had no chance to evolve once 3e decided to go all roll-over (while AD&D had been a confused mix of the two systems). It does not detract from its quality.

Alternity is a pretty solid roll-under.
