Yeah, the "Author, Art, Editing" etc. should be bullet pointed or something under each entry title.

Which I believe has the tag-line "No Elves"...

QQ: To run one of the many Forged in the Dark games, does one need the Blades in the Dark book, or are they (normally) complete games unto themselves?

With the upcoming Book of Magic, seems like one could cherry-pick a list of spells and create one's own "white magic" tradition. (possibly adding some of your own or from 3rd party sources). However, such a tradition probably should include a few offensive spells lest a practitioner feel useless...

Steve Jackson Games was formed after Steve left Metagaming. That company kept the rights to The Fantasy Trip (until just a few years ago), so SJG came out with Man To Man, a combat game that was an obvious expansion and evolution of Steve’s work in TFT. Man to Man itself was just a stepping...

For those wondering where @Von Ether got that number from, apparently there will be nice graphical listings of spells in each school by rank, showing their prereqs:

Yes! Now someone can brew poison antidotes! ;)

Chiming in here that I’m currently running the Secrets of the Dragon Emperor campaign and the group has done most of the adventures in it, each with its own boss monster. PCs have gone down (the system uses Death Saves just like 5e, but against your Con, so odds of surviving are generally...

The wielder is only part of the equation. Elric was a powerful wizard/warlock having generational pacts with many powerful beings. But Stormbringer was an entity all unto itself. You want to emulate Elric - and all the soul sucking involved - more closely, let that Hexblade get their hands on...

Another thing I really appreciate with the UA hexblade is the additional castings of hex. Between failed concentration checks or the hexed target escaping combat, carrying the hex away with it, I hate having to cast the spell more than once in an encounter, especially with the warlock’s limited...

I’m also glad to see Accursed Specter go, though not for any mechanical reasons. I just thought it was weird flavor-wise to have this necromantic summoning ability for a subclass about wielding a magically bonded weapon. Talked to the GM when my character was leveling up and would gain...

It probably did have a playtest stage, just not in a public UA.

As I'm currently playing a XGtE Hexblade, I find the updated class very interesting. Obviously they already split out the Pact Weapon Invocation into it's own thing already in the new Core rules. But as a couple of other people have mentioned, you don't even need to take that pact to be a...

No, it’s like Ars Magica, but where one PC is the Beastmaster and all the other PCs are their pets

There’s also some tables in PB to design / randomly generate creatures. There are descriptions next to the values to give GMs an idea of what type of stats would be appropriate when converting creatures

Their huge Kickstarter for Done Among the Dead fulfills later this year, but from Limithron on Discord: Once things for the KS hit retail, though, prices will go up. So they’re encouraging people to pre-order. And if you want to thank them for their generosity, I recommend joining the...

I feel seen.

I think the current rule (at least 2014) of having disadvantage while using a ranged attack in melee works just fine instead of making the archer vulnerable, but my own house rule is that shooting into melee from outside it also gives disadvantage (though a notable size difference in combatants...

My guess is affecting all creatures was too strong for the given CR. Since the goal was to keep creatures at the CR given to n the 2014 MM for backwards compatibility in adventures, this is one of the rare cases where they pulled it back a bit (though the damage was increased). Just curious- is...
