And the most well known RPG out there can't sell enough books to warrant the production? That's pretty sad.

I thought the Dragon fight was fun. I thought when my players snuck into the vampire's tower and had a fight with her an her guards that it was a fun fight as well. The chapter 4 Merchant caravan section, I thought was really fascinating but my players just weren't into it. All in all, if it...

It's definitely going to hurt them because the one book they are putting out this season I will not buy. Especially since everything I was looking forward to is going to be a free download. On the other hand, I would probably buy every setting book and non-adventure path module they are not...

If they gave us the same page counts as Dairy Queen and Laundry Mat. That would give us 64 pages for Elemental Magic. I would be much happier about this if there was also Magazine content to back up their seasonal themes as well.

That's the issue though. I was planning on using that Handbook for my own elemental magic based campaign. I do not plan on getting that new adventure path. I don't want to run adventure paths. I want modules and settings that I can pull from or put into my own world. I'm all for keeping...

But we aren't getting anything at all. They aren't going to announce anything for half a year so the only thing in the limelight is Elemental Evil. This media ploy isn't for the tabletop game. It's so they can sell Neverwinter Online and that Board Game. The tabletop game is getting drekked on.

It took two books to do Tyranny of Dragons, also 1-15, and they were bare bones and had a lot cut from them for space. Now we have a single book that is supposed to take PCs through their entire lifetime plus everything they planned for the handbook? I think that sucks pretty hard. They...

I don' think it's a real issue. either you know the roll and you have a pretty good idea whether it will be useful or you don't know the roll (the gm hides the roll) and you take a gamble that you can avoid the results with inspiration. I think the rule is there so you don't have to "make "...

I find it funny that there isn't even any information about this product on the Wizards' website.

I haven't got to listen to this yet but it sort of annoys me that they abbreviate these things. I much rather they do a full adventure campaign rather than these little one shots that are more for entertainment than showing an actual play session.

4 out of 5 rating for Shadowrun 5th Edition Lots of editing errors. If they were corrected in future printings I would give this product 5 stars. It took a good 4th edition and made it better without putting too many new issues (like new editions seem to do lately).

I don't know. I think it means they feel like they don't need to put out a 5e version of the setting since they made the 2e one available for us. Still , it's one of my favorite settings and any setting they do for 5e I would hope they use these past products as guides. In my opinion, the 4e...

1. One session per section sounds good. You should be prepared for any section though because the adventure is rather sandboxy 2. Just make the passage too small for medium sized creature. Goblins are Small and can slip through without issue. The Hobgoblin goes around. The GM running this...

The way I'm going to do it in my game, finding special ingredients will not only provide some of the gold value but will also reduce the creation time. It's the only way to make higher rarity items and it gives the GM the ability to limit what items can be made.

I would have put Dragon Mountain in there somewhere. Interesting how Gary Gygax made many of these.

I totally agree with you. I couldn't finish the book. On the subject of the ready made backgrounds. I didn't make my players get them. What is the point of making your own character if you have to fit into one of those backgrounds? But it does create the issue, where a Player makes a...

I bought it because my choices were limited. I'm an avid module user. Railroading isn't a bad thing. But when it consumes the entire life of a PC, holding them hostage throughout the campaign. That's when it gets to be an issue. It would have been much better if the two parts were broken up...

I like it. The only real issue I have with it is the fact it's an adventure path. That means those characters chosen at 1st level are doomed to deal with a single plot for the entire game. Even that is not so bad if the next adventure is more open. Yes there were several encounters that...

Cat Familiars don't even get an attack in the first place. If by chance the bartender of a tavern hires you to clear out the cat infestation in his basement, you probably need to speak with your GM about how House cats are the most broken monster in the book. Or you know deal the 1 hp of...

That's just one way of gaining advantage though. Familiars can use the Help action to grant advantage . The best use of Attack rolls spells is to wait until you have advantage. Yes, you can still miss. But a hold person spell can fail to work too. Also, if you don't have a great...
