    Level Up (A5E) It's Here! It's Time To LEVEL UP Your 5E Game!

    Downloaded my Level UP 5e PDFs. It looks suspiciously compatible with D&D 5e, lol. EDIT: I'm only in character creation and I give that section an A+. It's basically everything I could have wanted from the other 5e. And you made humans INTERESTING. For that it's money well spent.

    D&D 5E (2014) What 3 Settings did you pick in the Survey

    Mystara and Dark Sun and an "other" of Al-Qadim.

    D&D 5E (2014) New D&D Survey, with some in-depth setting questions

    I resemble that Mystara remark. Multiple paragraphs. I was almost embarrassed I wrote so much but since I know WotC actually reads this stuff I kept typing. It'll never be published but at least I tried.

    D&D 5E (2014) New D&D Survey, with some in-depth setting questions

    Response from me on the "how much have you spent in the past 6 months". Exactly zero dollars on official or licensed products but $1100 on 3rd party stuff, all from Kickstarter. WotC just isn't making product I'm interested in. Even extending out to 1 year it'd be zero. Though I have bought a...

    D&D 5E (2014) Tracy & Laura Hickman Announce Skyraiders of Abarax

    Looks like it'll give Level Up a run for its money on Kickstarter. I'd rather have adventures from from the Hickman's as I think they are good adventure designers but I trust they'll be able to put together a professional product. Sometimes I wish WOTC would put out ultra-premium editions of...

    D&D 5E (2014) Wild Speculation: Athas, the World Without Dragons

    Exactly. There is zero need to have all worlds and stories connected everywhere with some kind of unified cosmology. Honestly, it's a big reason I lean towards 3rd party settings and adventures because they just don't care about all the cosmology wankery WotC goes through.

    D&D 5E (2014) What is your least favorite class in 5E?

    I picked Sorcerer. Though it's close with Warlock. I'd never play either.

    Level Up (A5E) It's Here! It's Time To LEVEL UP Your 5E Game!

    I suspect I'm not the only one but I backed this in part because of the value I've gotten from the enworld website, in particular the D&D forums and all the various posters and their opinions. I've spent zero on accessing the forums and I don't even see ads. I have an adblocker so I'm not even...

    D&D General How many of your 5E D&D books have you used?

    Starter Set/Free Basic Rules- Devoured the Basic Rules when they were released before the PHB was. Lost Mine of Phandelver is a great adventure. Core Rules Player's Handbook - Used so much I had to get my copy replaced for free Dungeon Master's Guide - Read and used Monster Manual - Used a lot...

    D&D 5E (2014) (Poll) I play 5e, and there are X players at the table.

    My personal preference as a DM is 6. I just find it easier to balance adventures and it also still leaves a nice table dynamic if there are one or two players absent (temporary or permanent). I've also enjoyed playing the most when there have been six players. Not more, not less. Six.

    D&D 5E (2014) How do you hope WotC treats the upcoming classic settings?

    I was 10 when Dragons of Autumn Twilight was released. It is 100% a kid-friendly series of books. I agree that Dragonlance, more than most D&D settings, is great for younger players. I doubt WotC will go this route but it's a great way to play to the strengths of Dragonlance and separate it from...

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D Books Delayed By The Shipocalypse

    My Xanathar's Guide is 5th printing and printed in the USA, FWIW.

    D&D 5E (2014) Unearthed Arcana: Travelers of the Multiverse

    I'd love it if we got, instead of the 97th type of elf, we had something done with humans.

    D&D 5E (2014) Where We've Been and Where We Might Be Going (or, What I Think WotC Is Doing)

    I'm all for this. It gives the market more "official" products without flooding the main market. Like a movie having comic book or novel tie-ins.

    D&D General Do you prefer more or less Skills?

    I agree with some of the above posters who say that even more skills could be consolidated, such as Athletics and Acrobatics, as well as consolidation of some of the knowledge skills. On the other hand, I'd like a knowledge skill such as Streetwise that existed in the WEG SW RPG. I'd like a...

    D&D 5E (2014) Wow! No more subraces. The Players Handbook races reformat to the new race format going forward.

    I ditched subraces early on in my 5e DMing and told players that subrace has no meaning in-game and just pick the lump of stats that worked best. If nothing worked then we could swap roughly equivalent traits. Personally, I'd love to see something done with humans to give them far more...

    D&D 5E (2014) What's really useful on a DM screen?

    I wish a DM screen would be landscape rather than portrait. As to actual content I don't really have any good ideas.

    D&D 5E (2014) How do you hope WotC treats the upcoming classic settings?

    Basically this for any old D&D setting. It's been long enough into 5e's run that I can find or convert for myself any old setting or adventure. No real need to pay WotC at this point. That being said, the one setting I'd really be keen on is Dark Sun. I skipped every 2e supplement when they...

    D&D General Thaco the angry clown... really?

    Or, as in my case, neither be offended nor find it funny enough to even elicit a smile. It's a joke so lame even I'd be embarrassed to make it.
