    Is RPGing a *literary* endeavour?

    I mean, neither of them should've won an Oscar . . . but both of them should have starred Sandra Bullock. Also, do you remember when you said the following? So true.

    What would be some good metics to evaluate RPG rules/systems?

    Objection! This metric would wildly skew the position of my fantasy heartbreaker, inspired by nostalgia for my time gaming in Montreal with a Quebecois group even though the only French I knew was what I learned in school, not really paying attention in French class. Les Dungeonnes et Les...

    Why are we okay with violence in RPGs?

    Excellent! Since lowkey13 doesn't get to complain, that lets me go to the front of the line with my complaint. My Complaint: you're stealing my schtick! Please Schtop.

    Players 'distressed' by gang-rape role-playing game

    I'm reminded of my favorite line from a Taylor Swift song: You've been awfully insulting of your fellow forumites, calling us cruel earlier. Now, calling us dishonest. But you're just telling it like it is, right?

    What wouble be special about a Grave Robber [npc/subclass/background mechanics]

    If I was to make a grave robber, the first thing I'd do is give him the Religion skill, to reflect all the knowledge he's picked up on the job.

    d8 Sneak Attack: Hear me out

    That's what leaps out to me to as the downside to the OP's idea. I've been playing a rogue who fights with a dagger and shield (Moderately Armored). I'm happily foregoing the 1d8 I could be getting from the rapier because of the occasional time throwing my dagger is useful. But if I was also...

    D&D 4E [4E] Which classes would you prefer to see in a clone

    Heh. Iwas a homebrewing fiend in 3e, making several new base classes and a whole host of prestige classes, along with new feats. Then 4e came along, and I boggled at how much more work it would take to make a new class. I just stopped homebrewing cold. "Yeah, I'm just gonna run the game with...

    D&D 4E [4E] Which classes would you prefer to see in a clone

    I'd add the Warlock as just as necessary as the Warlord. And I voted for the Ranger to go along with the Paladin.

    Bitten by an irradiated elf, I'm guessing.

    D&D 5E (2014) The Final Announcement from The Descent Live Stream: Eberron Hardcover

    *Raises hand* 79 to 23 against. Who wants to get in on this action?

    D&D 5E (2014) The highest sustained DPR build I could make

    I even took Martial Adept for my battlemaster. The extra die was nice, made me much more inclined to recklessly used the other ones rather than cautiously saving them for when they were needed, and the versatility of two more maneuvers was sweet.

    What 5th edition books should I be buying?

    The bloodwar is being fought in the opening area of my megadungeon, so I'm always on the lookout for tier 1 fiends, especially those of CR 1 and lower. I've homebrewed a bunch, so I already have what I need, but I still like to get ideas from the books, too, because inspiration often strikes...

    What 5th edition books should I be buying?

    Do they have low-CR demons and devils? The biggest lack for me is a variety of fiendish fodder.
