    D&D General Should the DM roll in the open?

    This is one of my "die on the hill" gaming philosophy. Roll in the open.

    D&D 5E (2024) D&D Beyond Thanks Community

    Nothing specific in the post, but when Parmandur suggested Beyod exclusives it got me thinking about how digital exclusive are used to get people on the "app" and then slowly the model changes from physical to digital releases. Then my mind starts to wander down this path. They are talking...

    Christmas swag!

    Normally I buy my self a couple of things, some POD AD&D adventures or minatures or something, but this year all I did was by my daughters a set of cat dice. She is three and so this is just her second set of dice. Fun fact my kids don't associate the word dice with the d6 or the cube shape...

    D&D 5E (2024) D&D Beyond Thanks Community

    My biggest fear is the inevitable move to more and more Beyond exclusive products, but then physical product just fade away. On the flip side I'm not that interested in the direction 5.24 is going with its power creep and ever present magic. So maybe this saves me money....

    D&D General What makes for good antagonists?

    90% of my games the villans are some well armed drifters who burn down the inn, bully the shop keepers, disrespect the authorities, and then rile up the orcs till they raid the village but by then these drifters have left for the next town.

    D&D 5E (2024) Suggestions for a simple 1st level adventure.

    The Sunless Citadel is a decent dungeon crawl that's gives new players choices but not overwhelming.

    Peregrine's Nest: Four Game Design Tips

    In my opinion the first thing you need is a great adventure. Something that highlights how you play the game and what the rules are trying to accomplish. In the 90s my group all bought Vampire, but the book didn't really provide a blueprint for what and adventure session and campaign looked...

    RPG Evolution: Stocking Gifts for Your Players 2024

    Better to have dice and not need them, than need dice and not have them. These are not the dice you go to play a campaign with, but as an everyday carry dice set they are light and portable ensurring that you will always have them on you If intiative gets rolled. Good enough in a pinch to...

    RPG Evolution: Stocking Gifts for Your Players 2024

    I got these and my immediate thought was how could I condense the rules of D&D down enough to a small scroll I could roll up and place in the cylinder with the dice for some sort of emergency D&D preparedness kit.

    Looking Back on 2024 – Looking Forward to 2025

    I wish I could distribute copies of it. But I respect the whole copyright thing. I did send a copy to WOTC with a letter asking them to consider publishing it. I don't want money I just want people to have it. Plus I did a one book version and a version separated with players info and dm info...

    Looking Back on 2024 – Looking Forward to 2025

    I'm right there with you. I like B/X so much that I copied and pasted the entire text from the PDFs into a word document then edited them together into one book so I didn't have to flip between them or rember what monster was in what book.

    D&D 5E (2014) Request for Warlock feature suggestions!

    Didn't read the first post, don't really know much about warlocks other than they eldritch blast, but some kind of bonus to persuasion as they use their supernatural charm to cloud your mind. The idea of a beguiling witch resonates with what I think about the class.

    Looking Back on 2024 – Looking Forward to 2025

    This is exactly my issue. I don't want a bunch of material spread around multiple small supplements I would prefer a single book of players options. I checked out the free rules and it's good. I just feel like the game has the potential to be great as supplements are released, but no interest...
