    D&D 1E Dragon Reflections #30

    I love these articles. I may have played a time or two in the late 70s as a little kid! But the dragon was something I only got as a hand me down from my older next door neighbor as we really started playing some years later. I missed a great deal despite playing AD&D (1st only!) into grad...

    D&D 5E Premade encounters with maps

    Hello gang, previously asked about encounters and got directed to nice encounter generator. however, I am now looking for plug and play mini dungeons with maps and creatures. I pulled the slime temple from out of the abyss and find this is the sort of thing I am looking for. 3pp, official...

    D&D General Background Vs. Backstory

    Hell yes and amen to this! players don’t play just to have a few possible lines in someone else’s novel! As if the dm is the only one with ideas! I am dm’ing more lately. In my world, religion has changed. You can buy into the faith with your character (all domains for clerics are...

    D&D 5E Goliaths WebDM Misses the Mark, but Sparks My Curiosity

    I think this opens up a ton of good role play options. And it could go either way. a character might become more tolerant and kind as aresult...or embittered. A very not nice Goliath full of resentment is interesting too.

    D&D 5E 2 headed death!

    Cool. Will check it out! I am planning a mini con for 8 friends and the shocking conclusion is that a good priest on an island seminary saw the symbol of Demogorgon. all abyss breaks loose. Finally at the final encounters all filled with two headed madness will the heroes see what led to the...

    D&D 5E 2 headed death!

    Really t number of heads seems arbitrary for that creature anyway. Think I will just use a troll and describe it as two headed

    D&D 5E Am I no longer WoTC's target audience?

    I would pay for a nice group of plug and play encounters/lairs!

    D&D 5E Am I no longer WoTC's target audience?

    wow. I could have written this save for not playing 2e. We stayed with 1st for a long time. And I did not hate yawning portal. however, I hope/think we are still the target audience....too. if we both love playing and buy the books I’d say it is good for us. If we like it and buy it, we...

    D&D 5E 2 headed death!

    Fellow gamers: looking for suggestions for 2 headed monsters for a temple tainted by Demogorgon! believe the group will be about 4th... so far I have thought of Ettin and death dog. I happen to have minis of these too which is fun. as I type this it also occurs I could probably use some...

    D&D 5E What is squishy, really?

    I think you are spot on. If I have a bard with moderately armored and a con bonus I don’t really feel squishy personally but guarantee someone would label it that way

    I have to show this to my kid. She does that to our dog too. She calls him a cobra

    D&D 5E What is squishy, really?

    Haha yeah! I would try to get a con bonus for my M-U so a breeze would not cause him save vs. frailty!

    D&D 5E What is squishy, really?

    when people call a character squishy it is as often classes other than wizard or sorcerer as not. So I am wondering if it is more AC issue vs. hit dice.

    D&D 5E What is squishy, really?

    I see a lot of worry about d8 for hit dice. and a lot of a angst about less than heavy armor. are people really squeamish or has my old age made me too cavalier? how would we define or operationalize squishy really?

    D&D 5E Would you play D&D if you knew there would be no combat?

    Hard No. my friends would laugh if I proposed a non-combatant game given our preferences. We’ve had several role play only sessions (not by design) but because the story and characters dictated what happened Necessary, good in some ways but not the goal. I live to play a role and to swing...
