I would prefer online. Kender are a waste of space, they're basically halflings which are immune to fear. Warforged on the other hand are unique and worthy of an official printing somewhere. I would also like to see half giants.

Agreed. I don't believe that for a minute. I don't see how they can stay in business only making one or two products a year. They have to be able to make money and you make money by producing products either in print or electronically. If they don't, Hasbro will fold the product line in a heartbeat.

Agreed, this is my favorite. In the last 2 sessions of my Blackmoor campaign (still in 4e) they players have been trying to puzzle out what the Egg of Coot has been up to. Funny thing is their theories were actually a lot better than the Egg's actual plan. I ran two entire game sessions based...

I voted for lemon curry because there is no actual differentiation between rule and flavor text in 5e. Technically it is all rule and it's up to the DM to decide what he follows and what he doesn't.

lol. I still use the Dragon Magazine archive on CD-Rom.

lol. I remember there was a thread about this a long time ago. Unless the city is prepared for attack and/or loaded with surplus adventurers of comparable level, it really only takes one dragon. Either come in at night or out of the sun in the daylight. A city that small won't have a lot of...

There's nothing about delaying that allows anyone to act simultaneously. Ready interrupts an action in progress. Delay just lets you drop your initiative count lower. It doesn't preempt anything or allow you to do anything you couldn't have done if you had rolled that number. Ready allows you...

I was also thinking of giving them the luck feat. I truly despise auto saves. I understand why they're there (because 5e reintroduced the auto-hit-save-or-be-incapacitated-for-the-full-fight mechanic from 3e and otherwise the PCs can end a boss fight with a single spell) but that doesn't mean I...

It's on page 173 of the PHB; 4th paragraph under the "Advantage and Disadvantage" heading. You reroll only 1 of the dice and you choose which one.

Um, yeah. Sports teams, police swat teams, mercenary teams and military special forces teams all can coordinate silently and with a very high level of accuracy. They do this thing called "practice" so they know the plan already. Also, if people are out of position, they can and do delay until...

1. I agree. There probably isn't any difference between going last in round 1 or first in round 2 unless there is some sort of mechanic that operates only in the surprise round (which would have to be round 1.) 2. Your analogy is apples and oranges. There is a big difference between skipping a...

Your scenario actually encompasses 2 possible scenarios. Let's use precise initiative rolls and assume PC cleric's original initiative was 25, NPC1 was 20, NPC2 was 15. Cleric delays on 25 because nothing has happened yet. NPC1 downs the fighter on 20. Cleric then decides to act on 19. That is...

I think you are confusing delay and ready. Delay does not supersede someone else's actions. You have to declare a ready action to do that. Delay just lets you drop your initiative number. It doesn't let you compress time any more than acting on your normal initiative count did. You are just...

4e had a lot of these actions and therefore had clear consistent rules on when they took place. 5e does not. That's why people are having such a hard time with the sequence of events. When using the Lucky feat on your own rolls, it occurs after you roll the d20 but before you determine the...

The problem is the sloppy 5e action system makes this type of ability harder to understand than it needs to be. The easiest way to do it is to disregard what the feat says. DM makes the roll and determines whether it hits or not, and then it's on the player to quickly state that he wants to...

Actually it doesn't. Invisibility is a lesser condition than hiding. It only prevents things from seeing you to target you and allows you to try to hide. If you haven't made a stealth check they can still hear you.

Nothing unreasonable about that. I do it much the same way. In my game there is only the material world and the spirit world. To planeshift to the spirit world you have to find a weak point and you shift into the corresponding point in the spirit world.

I wouldn't presume that's the updated pantheon. I suspect they just listed all of the main FR gods.

That won't be much profit. Hopefully they have a better plan than that.

It isn't bad at very low levels. The damage is comparable to other low level spells on the first round and it isn't horrible on the following rounds, it's the limitations it imposes on the caster after the first round that make it poor. It severely restricts your actions and leaves you at way...
