    D&D (2024) Martial vs Caster: Removing the "Magical Dependencies" of high level.

    Need here should be read in a very soft way. We we can also read You may use a Wizard, or a magic item, or hire a Wizard or other expert. Surely Need don’t mean you must have a Wizard as a party member. Having the party rely on other mean than class feature to solve a problem is very sane for...

    D&D (2024) People on this forum are creating confusion. Not WotC.

    They do their job. They got their own survey, but I’m sure they are following some streamers too and maybe they will read this thread. Why not. I’m sure they make a clear impact between their survey, a video by TreantMonk, and a post of rant by a common user here or on redddit.

    D&D (2024) Are Bishops "Clerics" or "Priests"

    In all case the answer is maybe. In the medieval period we got a pope named without being a priest. Pope Callixtus III in 1455 was the last non-priest to be chosen as pope. So I guess that clergy in DnD can be as much silly. If we have a pope that never been a priest, we can have a pope unable...

    D&D General Rules, Rulings and Second Order Design: D&D and AD&D Examined

    We may add some dozen of parameters and clarifications to handle those situations, the expected result will be the same, most of the time we want the party to succeed. Overall we get fooled by simple trick. Want to give the illusion of accuracy and realism, ask to roll 2 separated checks for a...

    Why do RPGs have rules?

    I would not give much value on idea I have 20 years ago, those are usually more dull and lame than idea and content I produce today.

    D&D (2024) Martial vs Caster: Removing the "Magical Dependencies" of high level.

    You don’t need to tailor high level adventure to give a fighter boots of flying or a flying mount, or a returning throwing weapon that can allow multiple attacks. A high level party should be able to find or hire npcs or some ally to make long distance or planar travel. It‘s the DM job to allow...

    Roman Bloodline?

    The real hype would be being related to Alexander the great or the last King of Troy. That was quite popular during antiquity.

    D&D General How do people play so quickly? (# of sessions per adventure?)

    What’s happening during sessions is the most important. if players like talking to npc, and with each other, then so be it. if the need to progress in the adventure is also important then cut off some elements. reduce the numbers of rooms, fights, secondary plots. if you play monthly don’t...

    Kobold reemphasis that luck Token are renew on a session basis rather than a day basis, another nice mix with real time and game time.
