    D&D 5E (2014) My failed attempt to preorder the revised core rulebooks

    Ooof, that sucks. I will not be getting the alt-art covers, only because one store is preordering significantly (well $5) cheaper than the competitors but has sold out of their alt-arts. I'm mildly annoyed (with myself), as I waffled on preordering only a couple of days earlier when they were...

    What Actors In Specific Roles Are A Joy To Watch for You?

    I do think the reason I've become such a Doctor Who fan is the casting has been on point. The Modern Doctors have all been a treat to watch (and I'm generally happy with the OG Doctors, their shows are harder to watch). Eccleston, Tennant, Smith, Capaldi, Whittaker and Gatwa have all been...

    D&D 5E (2024) Could we get a Bloomburrow (Redwall) setting for 5.24?

    I am so into this set. The offspring mechanic is so adorable.

    D&D General Shocked how hard it is to get new players now-a-days

    I dunno, to say he's not engaged is overstating it. I have three parents in my group, there hasn't been a single session that hasn't been brought to a screeching halt by a need to go do active parenting, so I get the multitasking.

    D&D 5E (2024) To Revise or not to Revise: What to do about the other Subclasses?

    This is pretty much my take. Swashbuckler and Kensei really need the attention, as do the XGE Sorcerer subclasses.

    D&D General Shocked how hard it is to get new players now-a-days

    I miss in person gaming, the tactile nature of rolling dice, it's easier to read the group. Plus I'm less likely to get second screened, a friend of mine is always playing WoW during our online sessions.

    D&D 5E (2024) To Revise or not to Revise: What to do about the other Subclasses?

    The question was "which do you most want to see revised", I kinda wanted to see where priorities were and what everyone's top 5 are. TBH, I'd have preferred to do something along the lines of a poll for each subclass, with the options: 1. Revise and reprint 2. Leave alone 3. Make something new...

    D&D 5E (2024) What is your oppinion of 5.24 so far?

    Positive so far. I'm in favor of the changes made so far on the player's side, I think the 2024 classes have all seen significant QoL changes that will improve the table experience. I am hoping that we will see more of the same on the DM's side. Easier to run, monsters that can challenge the...

    D&D 5E (2024) To Revise or not to Revise: What to do about the other Subclasses?

    Argh, can't edit. The second Tempest should be Twilight, as it says it's from TCE - Tasha's Cauldron of Everything

    D&D 5E (2024) Printed 2024 Player's Handbook Compared with Other 5E books

    Chonky. Need to get another book shelf (general problem already, but the PHB will exacerbate it).

    D&D 5E (2014) What PC species should return for 5ed?

    Give me more out there options! Was so glad to see Plasmoids, give me more weird ones! I like my DnD to have the Mos Eisley Cantina vibe, so less Elven subraces and humans that aren't (Illumans, Elan and Azurin, for example) and more insectile or construct or plant species. Shardminds...

    D&D 5E (2024) To Revise or not to Revise: What to do about the other Subclasses?

    So ... there are a lot of subclasses in 5e. And it's certainly possible to use older subclasses with the 2024 PHB classes. And for myself, I'm hoping to see new content after the 2024 Core books come out rather than just rehash and reprint previous material. But ... some subclasses didn't hit...

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook reveal: "New Sorcerer"

    That's fair. The double Metamagics won't really kick in until after level 10 anyway, and more uses is good

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook reveal: "New Bard"

    I really liked playing the 4e Bard, which I played through to level 16. The hard hitting Melee types all took a feat that gave them a free attack when they got force-moved, and the joke became my healing spells were like "Cast Assassin" as I'd heal our Executioner Assassin, move him to a...

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook reveal: "New Sorcerer"

    Not just boring ... probably not super relevant. If I've got Subtle Spell ... I don't need to be applying that in the midst of a battle I've got my Sorcererous Rage up! I was hoping Sorcerers would get 3 starting Metamagics.
