As far as I know, each wildspace system is like as single solar system. When travelling between the wildspace systems, spelljammer ships travel through "hyperspace" (the astral sea.)

If you make it an action to recover short rest resources, that introduces an actual decision point rather than being able to burn through an entire day's worth of resources at the same speed as a full caster can.

Suggesting that a Battlemaster fighter can recreate Warlord play experience is like saying that an Eldritch Knight can recreate the Wizard experience. Suggesting that a Purple Dragon Knight fighter can recreate Warlord play experience is like saying that an Champion fighter with magic initiate...

We know that it wasn't conventional electricity: it advances visibly along the lasso, doesn't ignite or flash burn everything in the vicinity as an object hot enough to cut steel and produce light in that spectrum would, and dissipates fast enough to safely touch the lasso within seconds of it...

I would suggest that the Monk is closer to the Paladin in that sense: a warrior attributed magical powers through their spiritual development. The paladin was generally attributed their powers through their faith and purity. The monk similarly so although through a filter of buddism rather than...

The energy depicted does not follow the properties of what any form of actual known energy does. It is effectively therefore 'magic' and has whatever properties the writers choose to give it. If they write the rules to say it travels at a speed of 2m/second or whatever, then that is how fast it...

Without knowing the game, I would look at that and think that that machine is pretty similar to a dragon. Maybe Huge or Gargantuan I'm not sure, but without some of the special abilities/spells etc of an actual dragon. I think that the average dragon could probably tear it up, so why not a group...

Well, 5e is the system that this discussion is about, so it is the capabilities of a martial character able to match up to what a current level 20 caster and level 9 spells can do that you are suggesting. That is entirely fair. So: You personally have presented your opinion that because you're...

I get the Hadozee gliding issue, but what was is the issue with the Plasmoids? This made me a little twitchy as well, but I already had to reinforce my suspenders of disbelief due to the surface area of the flaps compared to the size of the Hadozee body. Thus the holes weren't quite sufficient...

Is this from the 5e setting guide or just the old, early edition, rules?

Yes, but I was under the impression that even the wizards had to have an inborn spark, whether they chose to develop it or not. So if you selected ten random people in Krynn, maybe only one of them could learn to actually be a wizard: you could teach the others Arcana, but they would never be...

What I would actually be after I think is something like the Bo9S Warblade. They had interesting and tactical abilities and were generally much more fun to play compared to the Fighter of 3.5 even though their damage output was generally less. This has the added advantage of enabling a...

I think maybe you're both arguing more about the semantics of the fluff rather than the actual ability. Getting a huge creature to travel a distance and smash into anything it hits on the way, dealing damage and/or knocking prone definitely sounds like something a legendary warrior hero could...

Can you just "train" PC classes in Dragonlance? I thought that magic was generally an unusual talent in that setting?

There are many other classes that can heal. Artificers, Bards, Druids, Paladins, Rangers, plus subclasses of Monk, Warlock, Sorceror. In 5e you don't have to have someone play a cleric.

I believe the intent was to help actually running adventures with them for the DM - you can hand the player guide to your players and run the adventure while using monster stats from the separate book, instead of having to rely on loads of bookmarks.

I mean a "barrier to keep out gods around a world system" does sound a bit like Eberron. . .

Indeed, but I think that it is fair to say without heavy optimisation (which I believe will favour the BM), the Champion needs to be making 80 attacks between short rests before their damage matches a very basic BM. That's eight 5-round combats at Tier 2. Most groups don't have that many between...

In the majority of games, the Battlemaster deals more damage than the Champion.

You honestly believe that there would be no outcry against a spell of the power of heat metal if there was no targeting restriction?
