    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    The thing about those old Great Depression-era cookbooks is, they aren't all bad. There are some really good recipes in there if you know what to look for (and what to avoid). Our family still makes the same recipe for Navy Bean Soup that was written in my great-grandmother's cookbook...in...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Try this: Melt a half-gallon of your favorite vanilla ice cream in the refrigerator overnight. Pour it into a pitcher, add a little milk if it's too thick, then stir in your favorite spiced rum. Serve with some grated nutmeg on top.

    D&D 5E (2024) How balanced would be this feat?

    Eh, I think it's fine. Personally, I'd replace the "4th level or higher" requirement with "Powerful Build" feature, but that's more a matter of personal taste than anything else.

    Level Up (A5E) What are your common house rules?

    Nah, both of these house rules came from player requests. We are fans of Critical Role at my table, and the "roll hit points but reroll 1s" is a house rule that Matt Mercer uses. One time during character creation, a players asked if we could adopt that rule and I said "sure." I've not...

    Level Up (A5E) What are your common house rules?

    Two of my favorites: Healing potions always heal the maximum amount (no roll required), but cost twice as much. Always roll for hit points, but reroll 1s (characters with d10 or d12 hit dice can reroll 1s and 2s).

    Psionics--the Poll!

    Yep, that's the joke. Anything more specific than a flat yes-or-no gets swamped in an ocean of "not like that."

    D&D 5E (2024) Chance for a warlord?

    I can see a Warlord as a subclass of Fighter, sure...start with the Battle Master as a framework, and create a list of new 'battle cries' or whatever to go along with it. As others have mentioned, nonmagical healing is going to be a stretch but hey, it's always been a stretch. (blah blah...

    D&D 5E (2024) Psionics: What Do You Want?

    I'm only half-kidding here, but: I want Wizards of the Coast to contact @Steampunkette and buy Paranormal Power from her for whatever price she agrees on. The Esper class, the powers and spells, the talents, the lore, the art...seriously, check it out if you're a fan of psionics in your...

    D&D 5E (2024) Where to next, WotC?

    Sounds good to me. I hope they get around to updating and re-issuing all of the old TSR settings...they own the IP, they might as well make money with them. I know that some of them will need major rewriting in order to bring them up to modern sensibilities--Oriental Adventures, Al-Qadim, and...

    Rant: The WORST way to encourage people to try other games than D&D

    Ugh, I know the type. It's just a weird premise to begin with. Let people enjoy things, geez.

    D&D 5E (2024) Ranged Builds Thread

    I'm just sayin', it's a valid sniper build. I had a lot of fun with mine. But yeah, it can cause problems. Like every other character "build," you should run it past the rest of the table before you show up with it at game night to make sure it's a good fit.

    D&D 5E (2024) Ranged Builds Thread

    How about the Dark Sniper build? Start with rolling up a Drow, Shadow Elf, or Tiefling to get the Darkness spell for free, and choose Warlock to get the Eldritch Blast cantrip. When you reach 2nd level, choose two Invocations: Devil's Sight (to be able to see normally in magical darkness) and...

    Well of course it will blow up your campaign. But campaigns need blowing up every now and then, right? Embrace the chaos.
