    Which D&D Settings Do You Play In?

    It's like asking which came first: the chicken or the egg. Are people mostly playing Forgotten Realms because WotC supports it or does WotC support it because it's what most people play? Morrus set up this poll to answer exactly that question. To see if the answers here correlate to WotC's and...

    Which D&D Settings Do You Play In?

    Then you just invalidated the poll with your answer. Now explain why you can't play 5E Eberron? They've released materials for warforged and artificers. There's piles of 3e and 4e sourcebooks that still work. And trolls and ogres in Eberron are exactly the same as trolls and ogres in any other...

    Which D&D Settings Do You Play In?

    The Ravenloft results may also be skewed since it's not long after Halloween. I just ran my homebrew group through 3 weeks of Ravenloft as a halloween special, but now we're back to the regular adventure. I'm sure Ravenloft is popular as it's a great setting, but would we be seeing it similarly...

    Is This The World Record For Most Official RPG Monsters?

    Not to mention that counting 3rd party would forever put Pathfinder behind D&D 3rd edition, since all of Pathfinder could be considered 3rd party content for 3rd edition.

    FANTASY GROUNDS Usage Reports: D&D, Pathfinder, & SAVAGE WORLDS

    yeah I'm thinking the fact that it was now the official place for D&D online made it a more interesting destination for all D&D. 4E also doubled that month. The information that I'm more interested in is june where the number of overall games seems to go down slightly (though this doesn't...

    D&D 5E (2014) The Official Poll! What THREE things do you like most about D&D 5th Edition?

    I was going to go with advantage/disadvantage, but went with simplicity/light rules instead because advantage/disadvantage is a big part of that. (good bye +4 and -2 modifiers all over the place!) I also went with magic items not required, because it's good that magic items feel special again...

    Here Come The PRESTIGE CLASSES! Plus Rune Magic!

    Just because the buffet is all you can eat doesn't mean you have to try every dish. When I DM'd 3.x, I had a list of allowed sources for my players to draw feats, equipment and prestige classes from. Anything not on the list, they had to clear with me. I never had a problem with my players...

    Here Come The PRESTIGE CLASSES! Plus Rune Magic!

    Except it doesn't. As I just explained in my previous post, your ability to learn a spell is limited only by the spell slots you have available to you. Not your class level. Copying a Spell into the Book. When you find a wizard spell of 1st level or higher, you can add it to your spellbook if...

    Here Come The PRESTIGE CLASSES! Plus Rune Magic!

    You may want to read it more carefully, then. It specifically states that if you're adding it onto another spellcasting class, that you continue the spell progression. They give the example that a wizard 6/rune scribe 4 would have the spell slots of a 10th level wizard but the spellbook of a 6th...

    OUT OF THE ABYSS Has Derro - Check Them Out!

    [Sung to the tune of your favorite Sesame Street song] D is for demons, that's good enough for me! D is for demons, that's good enough for me! D is for demons, that's good enough for me! Oh, Demons! Demons! Demons! Stats in D!

    OUT OF THE ABYSS Has Derro - Check Them Out!

    At first I was inclined to agree, but I think perhaps the low CR is so you can make an effective challenge out of a greater number of them. With a higher CR, you'd maybe only be able to use one or two in a fair battle. With a CR like this you can throw a dozen of them at a party, or possibly...

    New D&D Movie To Go Ahead - Produced By Lego Movie's Roy Lee

    To be fair, I've seen movies that have done well without being any of these things (most of Michael Bay's catalog for instance). Also interesting to note that the OP doesn't feel well-acted is a requirement.

    Out of the Abyss: Longer Description and pre-order price reduction

    Not only that but "Lost Mines of Phandelver", "Rise of Tiamat", "Hoard of the Dragon Queen", "Princes of the Apocalypse" and "Out of the Abyss" all contain the letters A, E and T! (in addition to O and F of course) This could mean something! ... Or nothing!

    TITANSGRAVE Episode 3 - Danger at the Market

    Blame the short attention span of the internet. How often do you open a youtube video that's over a half hour long and watch it all the way through, let alone over an hour? Content providers on the internet know there's a law of diminishing returns, the longer a video is. Most try to keep their...

    [UPDATED] RAGE OF DEMONS! New D&D Storyline Features Drizzt, Underdark, & Demon Lords!

    Not exactly. The Realms were of course heavily covered in 3rd edition as the most popular, best known and best detailed campaign setting D&D has, but when 3.5 launched, it launched with a new campaign setting that was birthed in 3.5. That was Eberron. They didn't do it because they ran out of...

    Wheaton Talks TITANSGRAVE

    It's not about his ability to DM. It's about his ability to foster a love for gaming and open people's eyes to games that they're not familiar with. And in this case, he's not championing one RPG but the concept of RPGs in general. saying "Hey, if you play RPGs here's one you haven't seen, but...

    The Realms WILL Be Updated!

    I'm not assuming everyone has it. As I've pointed out, the 4e guide is $18 on Amazon and the 3e guide is $16 on drive thru PDF. these are easily available and the 4th edition guide is only SIX YEARS OLD! You might still find it at your local bookstore! My point is the information you want can be...
