    D&D 5E (2014) Monster Races and a quick sword thrust at the gate

    I could see a setting with Beholder Bartenders and Troll Guards. Vampire Tax collectors(everyone hates them anyway) and goblin mail persons. Ogres ran a lot of tow trucks(pick the cars up and set them on the truck bed) and orcs demanded equal rights(This isn't the 44,000 still! It's 98,767 for...

    D&D 5E (2014) Monster Races and a quick sword thrust at the gate

    You left out"Any creature that enters their territory is fair game to be stalked,killed and devoured.They make no distinction between humanoids,beasts and monsters. You also left out "Lizardfolk are omnivorous,but they have a taste for humanoid flesh..Prisoners are often taken back to their...

    D&D 5E (2014) Monster Races and a quick sword thrust at the gate

    Yeah Planescape is different but that highlights one aspect of it. Different settings mean different things. While Kobolds might be a monster race in faerun in Midgard they are at least in many locations,a standard race.

    D&D 5E (2014) Monster Races and a quick sword thrust at the gate

    To each his own and I'm not suggesting its wrong for your game but for mine. Lizardmen eat any humans who pass into their lands. That's in the description of the race in the monster manual. If a human being killed and ate any human that wandered into his lands he would be labeled EVIL but...

    D&D 5E (2014) Monster Races and a quick sword thrust at the gate

    I DM a few 5E games. Some of my players love to play monster races like goblin,kobold and Lizard man, but regardless of what I tell them expect to be able to just walk on in to any town and city. This has lead to a few pc deaths. Also it seems to be the general thought that I'm home brewing...

    AD&D 2E Is 5e Basically Becoming Pathfinder 2e?

    Yes 5E is 100% following in Pathfinders steps! We ALREADY have another rule book out? Geez! Money Grab if I ever saw one! At this rate it's not going to be long at all,like maybe 2090 before we are at the exact same spot pathfinder is at! OMG! Heck Pathfinder used to be at this VERY SPOT two...

    D&D 5E (2014) Group Rule Deal-Breakers

    If playing a Evil PC is banned is on your list of auto Outs about a game. I think it's a great thing for both you and whoevers game that was lol. Like I get that some people like and maybe even can handle playing evil alignments, theoretically, because in 40 years of playing I have not seen...

    D&D 5E (2014) Group Rule Deal-Breakers

    There was one guy on roll20 who was like obsessed with getting females to play with us. Like he went out of his way to keep more and more females playing and while females playing is fine it kinda struck me the wrong way and seemed kinda creepy.

    D&D 5E (2014) Great Weapon Master vs. Hex/Hunter's Mark

    You convinced me you are right. GWM needs to be expanded to include other weapons. Rename it Weapons Master or something and give all weapons the ability to hit less often and do more damage. Still two handed weapons will remain unaltered but I agree that the one handed weapons deserve something...

    D&D 5E (2014) Attacking 1 Opponent at a Time

    Yes to both. Being as this is a game it is indeed better to kill opponents fast so there is less damage to your side. No to both. Since this is also a role playing game you are supposed to be playing as if the things happening were real. In real life if you turn your back(on a enemy) to...

    D&D 5E (2014) Evaluating Range versus Damage (SS vs GWM) - putting a price on range

    I argued the same thing and thought I had one. Then the next fight the half orc barbarian/rogues we were fighting used the tactic against us with devastating results. They used movement to place a large tree between us and hide and then crit sneak attacked us. It was indeed kinda stupid so we...

    D&D 5E (2014) Evaluating Range versus Damage (SS vs GWM) - putting a price on range

    He was just listing the damage if you didn't have sneak attack. That said sneak attacked is by no means as easy as it is for melee. While you can indeed use Hide to get it at range it is not always easy to do so. Most DM's don't let players use hide as some sort of mmo hide button. You can't...

    Tomb of Annihilation Is Here - What Do You Think?

    I do not mind DM's altering the rules to make the world work for them. I do mind the DM's altering the rules to make the world work for them and screwing me over as a player. Don't want me in heavy armor in the middle of a jungle? Fine, i'm ok with that. Then give me something else to use that...
