    D&D 5E (2014) Ability Scores: Bonuses and Penalties! Optional in DMG?

    Why do you need to wait and see if the DMG does or doesn't provide an optional rule for racial modifiers? Just house rule it, especially if your players are of the same mind. If you're struggling with what the modifiers should be, use past editions to see what they did to help you make your...

    D&D 5E (2014) My New Players Have Quit 5th Edition

    Well, even if he, or others, thinks this or other methods of house-ruling in more hit points at first level will ruin their game, they could always simply give characters an advance on their 2nd level hit points. Hell, the DM could always advance them their 3rd level hit points if he/she thinks...

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D Icons of the Realms Starter Sets have arrived

    lol Of course they'd toss in a Drizzt miniature. Gotta grab those masses riding the Drizzt bandwagon. I'm sure it'll make them plenty of money. I guess Elminster will come with the next pack.

There's SOOOOO many players these days that seem...

    D&D 5E (2014) How will the Forgotten Realms be handled?

    No, Fizban was the avatar of Paladine. He appeared in a novel published in 1984. The Forgotten Realms was published somewhere around '86 to '89? Somewhere around there. EDIT: Nevermind, Boarstorm has it covered.

    D&D 5E (2014) How will the Forgotten Realms be handled?

    Yeah, that's the problem. To each their own, but I absolutely hate The Forgotten Realms as it is today. There's a reason I've already worn out two greybox AD&D versions of The Forgotten Realms campaign setting, and am currently planning on purchasing a third. It's a shame that novels affect...

    Temple of Elemental Evil - expectations

    <casts Raise Dead on the thread> Sorry, I necro'd the thread. Recently bought the 4th ed books and was looking to DM the old Temple of Elemental Evil module so I ran a search to see if there was a 4th ed version and this thread popped. I, for one, loved the game. But then, the fact that it...
