I just ran this. The party disguised as Redbrands made their way into the castle to see King Grol. They had already planned out what they were going to tell Grol: that they were here to pick up Gundren and to give Grol 200gp for the dwarf and his possessions from Glasstaff (up to 500gp if...

I really like your rework for this feat. I use a house rule for heavy crossbows very similar to what you have. I think of the +5 damage coming from the cranquin mechanical advantage. The pulling capability of someone with a twenty strength is twice as great as someone with a 10 strength...

I don't use ability score changes at all for wild shape except based on size. tiny: -4 str, small -2 str, large +2 str, huge +4 strength. Hit points stay the same and are the same pool regardless of form (reducing your wildshape to 0 hp causes you to revert and start making death saves)...

Flame arrow: When a target is hit by a ranged weapon attack using a piece of ammunition drawn from the quiver, the target takes an extra 1d6 fire damage. When the arrow transforms into a lightning bolt, the original piece of ammunition drawn from the quiver never hits the target. I wouldn't...

Intelligence: -1 skill, language or tool per negative point of intelligence ability score modifier. Makes a cost for intelligence as a dump stat

Unfortunately the way polymorph is currently written, killing a polymorphed creature isn't so easy. So players and DMs have to come up with these contortions to get the job done. I'd just as soon have HP not modified by polymorph. The way its written now its like there is no shared body...

What you think of as cheese I think of as flavorful:) I like my PCs and NPCs to have signature moves. I guess I don't know why polymorph and a box is any cheesier than honey and an anthill or any of the other hundreds of different spell and/or non-spell combos. If certain ways of killing are...

I was thinking NPC when I wrote it, but I was also thinking that there isn't a significant difference between the two

Just a quick glance. I don't see 15,14,12,12,10,9 15,14,12,11,10,10 I'm fairly certain there are others, but I'll leave that to you :)

What prevents the enemy from grappling your eldritch knight while he is grappled? Preventing the EK from flying up in the air and/or also avoiding falling or taking the EK with him?

OK, so this is going too far :) By house rules, I would definitely not allow 20d6 falling damage for creatures smaller than medium in spite of RAW. See exhibit 1: http://www.nytimes.com/2012/05/08/science/are-bugs-hurt-in-falls-from-high-rises.html?mcubz=1 where you will find this wonderful...

So mind blank and I can make polymorph bombs.... cool :)

So for the box breaker / nearest available space people. What happens if the box is a Leomund's secret chest on the ethereal plane? Lost forever in deep ethereal space?

So what happens when you polymorph someone (say a medium human/humanoid) into a small fish, snail, turtle, small whatever with little or no movement speed, and then pick them up and put them in a small arcane-locked iron box. And then end the polymorph spell? What happens to the creature...

Fairs and festivals will have log chopping competitions with whips, because in the hands of a dexterous wielder they are better at chopping wood than than a hand ax.

So can a flying creature change its altitude by flying while under the influence of a levitate cast by somemone else or do they only have horizontal movement?

9) Advanced Horde Tactics: Attackers use their attack action to knock prone until successful. Even better with creatures with a free knock prone ability like wolf, or multi-attack for multiple knock prone attempts. Next attackers use grapple until successful to prevent enemy from standing...

Anyone have any interesting monster tactics. I'll start with a couple 1) Goblins: Horde Tactics: Because goblins can disengage as a bonus action they can partial move, attack, disengage, and finish their move away from their victim(s) This allow huge numbers of goblins to attack small...

To all the lowlight and darkvision posters: I didn't realize this was going to be a thing. I was just using RAW for the starting point of this discussion. As I pointed out in my OP some animals are already listed in the MM as having darkvision. Many others with equivalent night vision...
