yes very much this, at least with the previous version players had some tactical option to get the creature prone, now the things just a bit boring

nuclear families are in fact the second most common family composition, though they do dominate anglophone countries like the UK and USA. Worldwide though Extended families are the most common (ie household that might include grandparents, unmarried uncles, aunts and cousins). Which given...

The Incredibles seemed to get it right (admittedly even thats a decade old now)

https://www.dndbeyond.com/sources/dnd/mm-2024 hmm, so is that the only Creature with distinct Lairs? I'm curious why Sphinx Lair gets a specific entry that no other creature does

Umber Hulk and Nightwalker (I miss Nightwings)

I just spotted Sphinx Lair on the DnDBeyond list - whats that about?

Not when theres no monster design tools to help DMs change things - sure the MM is a menu of selectable features for my encounter building, it gives the common lore - but anything not in the lore doesnt exist until it is added and that needs extra effort made harder by arbitary monster...

I think that might be the issue - what makes geomancy special that it causes Lizards to become elementals? Why not Lizatdman pyromancer? Or Lizardman Hydromancer or indeed Orc Geomancer or Human geomancer? Equally Lizardman sovereign, who looks at a swampdwelling gator and thinks, yeah earth...

Ah thats a bit more understandable, thanks for the clarity - though I am still trying to wrap my head around the idea of Lizardfolk =elemental earth infused/affiliated humanoid, the connection seems a bit arbitrary but easily ignored.

Looks to have the pacing of a new video game - nice,

Yet his people love him. He provides free education, free health care, free housing and full employment, he is anti-racist and fully protects the good citizens of Latveria. It is the enemies of Latveria who suffer his wrath, especially that fool Richards

if the speculation about Galactus actually eating this alternate-Earth happens then yeah, I think Marvel is intentionally not including Norrin Radd in this movie so they can tell the Galactus story while preserving Norrin Radds mainstream mythos.

not a gender swap, different character - and in a different universe

Galactus seems small - at least compared to the petrified Celestial from Eternals, could be just perspective. and was that Retrofuture look of the Baxter Building really accurate to the 60s? or is it a comic book nod going to be an interesting watch to see if they pull off a good Galactus movie

This one? (classic Aarakocra)

How useful are the Indexes? and how flexible are the NPCs

I absolutely loved 3x's ability to give creatures class levels and templates as they could be used to adapt simple base creatures to build an interesting story. I didnt play 4e but monster roles seem a similar mini-template approach. Im big on narrative and love 5e Lair Actions as a way to...
