I’ve been using Zoom since 2020. For my in-person group, it is our backup, and for my remote group we use of mix of it and owlbear rodeo - but mostly we do minis on a table with a camera. When I started using it, it was 12.99 a month. It just went up to $16.99. But only the host needs to pay it...

Time for another session title update! For my Temple of Elemental Evil Hombrew Riff, called "Primordial Evil" we have Session #15 - "The Unconquerable Tower" [Saturday, April 27, 1 pm] Session #16 - "The Dark Tower" [Tuesday, May 21, 7:30 pm] Session #17 - "Into the Wilderlands" [Saturday...

WOW. That’s not my experience with players at all, no one remembers anything! Or at worst realizes after the fact that they’ve run through it before! 😂

I feel that way about Ghosts of Saltmarsh. Ran two groups through it kind of simultaneously but now I want to run it a third time with my new homebrew rule set and with the experience of the first two times.

Personally, I’d happily play in any home brew 5e D&D in-person campaign with a good DM whether based on an established setting or module/adventure path or not.

Ugh. I had forgotten about the Judges Guild thing. I’m withdrawing my statement about not being able to resist getting this, given that I find it pretty easy to resist giving money to hateful folks.

Is there gonna a KS? I said Shadowdark was gonna be my last one, but I probably can’t resist this.

I went with 1 1st and 1 3rd. Both punch above their weight and I can still cast a 2nd level spell with the additional 3rd level slot if I need to, while 4th level spells feel less versatile than 3rd or 1st level spells, even if more powerful.

I have always ruled you cannot target a creature you can’t see with a ranged attack. Seems pretty simple to me. I have seen darkness used effectively by both sides, nonetheless. 🤷‍♂️

I prefer a setting that leans towards the grounded, where the PCs (and some NPCs) are the special ones. Yes, people know magic exists, but it should remain "magical" and be about exploring the contradictory seeming mysteries of the cosmos by different means, not as a codifiable set of universal...

I thought that was what you'd be retiring from! ;) jokes!

I just said this in a convo with someone else but it felt too good not to share here. . . Sometimes the ENWorld forums* feel like the Fox News of RPGs, I experience cognitive dissonance between what many posters on here report as the RPG (particularly D&D) experience and my own experience. The...

Doing our first playtest tonight- 9th level characters. I figured it made sense to start with the highest (or near highest) and. Work our way down. Still looking for 1 more.

This is the chart I came up with for my 10 level version of 5e

The closest I have come was homebrew D&D setting where all classes were clerics who used one of the different six stat as their spellcasting ability depending on their choice of god 18 gods.

I don’t know. Just less interesting threads. The top of the forums just having the same five or six mega threads clogging things.
