I guess it's the "leave them wanting more" philosophy. :(

For story reasons I've started 1lvl fighter, then barbarian going forward. I see him as the disintegrating veteran.

ArtStation advertises collections of posed people for artists. Not expensive, either.

Our DM rolled 4d6 drop low 7 times, dropped the lowest, and let us each use the resulting six stats in the best order for our class/character. Simple, even, fair.

If you want platypus folk, there are minis on Etsy. Also moth-folk.

The latest Jumanji movies show a game movie with a strong meta-game element can definitely work, and if they include the meta-game element, I hope they look to this as inspiration. Also kickass action/comedy movies, so it can work, and I think the majority of viewers liked the action, comedy...

I'm thinking Dragon Sylph is the name of a flying ship The wording is odd because it's part of a poem, which you can see by checking out the other images. This is effectively a teaser trailer, more to whet the appetite than give a clear explanation.

My experience as someone who was 19 in '82 when I started playing, was that different groups had different ideas about what role-playing was, and whenever you joined a new group you had to feel your way through to what level it was rolling dice, and what level it was about playing a theatrical...

Are you worried your players will throw things at you?:LOL:

I want to make the Warhammer trope doomseeker/trollslayer. Which is better: full Barbarian, or Barb/Fighter? We're starting level 1, so I'm tempted to start with Fighter 1 to get two weapon fighting. Rolls were 18, 13, 15, 11, 12, 9, so with Mountain Dwarf we get 20, 13, 17, 11, 12, 9.

Ok, I gave up on page 12, so if I missed a rejoinder to this or someone else brought this up, I apologise. But it seems to me 'competition' schemes take advantage of the same issue that causes gambling: the vast majority of humans are really poor judges of odds. So it encourages a lot of...

Bag of Holding.

Those are they.

Can anyone identify the banners on the castle walls?

I think the perfect moment of D&D is when fantasy trope plus system use plus die roll all fall perfectly together. The risk it could have gone wrong, but didn't is part of that perfect moment. See Laura/Jester's cupcake moment. She could have failed to persuade the witch to eat it. The spell she...

All the folk in Critical Role come from theatrical careers or backgrounds, not a group known for their love of math or rules. And the game may be broadcast to entertain us, but it also has a major goal of entertaining the players and DM.

Actually they changed from Pathfinder to 5e D&D because Pathfinder was too crunchy for live play. As you do say further down, they've only got limited attention to pay to both the rules and the role-play; some handle this better than others.

(reads article): Oh, dear. But then, I think John Reese was the least interesting character on the show. Not only that, but I thought the ending implied that his part in the conspiracy was going to be taken up by others anyway.

Printing chocolate 3d minis shouldn't be too hard to extrapolate from current tech. I think there's a 50/50 chance that the next campaign will be set somewhere else than Exandria. Or at least on a yet-unknown continent. Matt Mercer loves to explore his worlds with his players.
