    D&D 5E (2014) 3 Classic Settings Coming To 5E?

    Well, Humble, I guess we'll see how Wizards of the Coast treats the Domains of Dread now in Van Richten's Guide to Ravenloft. I am optimistic. :)

    D&D 5E (2024) Revised 6E prediction thread

    If you finish either of them, feel free to share them with me...I always like perusing what people come up with. I hope someone here ends up inviting you to a game! It sounds like your DW group in is in the hands of a good DM!

    D&D 5E (2024) Revised 6E prediction thread

    I am not as tactically-minded as you, ER, so I hesitate to expose my ignorance, but simply because you got a great concept for a class here, how about replacing Mystic Arcana with some high-level ability to alter terrain, not through actual transmutation of the field of battle, but through...

    D&D 5E (2024) Revised 6E prediction thread

    First, I would like to make a public appeal on behalf of EzekielRaiden...is there anyone out there running some games exclusively online looking for a tactically-minded, creative player? If so, unless ER is opposed, reach out to him with a PM. ER, I would invite you to my game right now, but I...

    D&D 5E (2024) Revised 6E prediction thread

    Imagine what it is like for my wife! :) That is very unfortunate. I wish it was not that way. Speaking for myself, I have bent over backwards for players who I have not DMed before merely so that they can realize their character concept...even at the expense of some of the unique aspects of my...

    D&D 5E (2024) Revised 6E prediction thread

    Hello my friend, I appreciate the question, but I am not really the person to answer. I haven't been that been picky with the game. I started playing 1980 and have had great times with the stories that have resulted. I like game design to the extent that I create spells, classes, etc., like most...

    D&D 5E (2024) Revised 6E prediction thread

    I entirely concur. I don't see any problem with 5th edition. The points that people are bringing up can be completely legitimate, but they are all challenges that can be dealt with with the kind of customizations that take place at most tables. I am failing to see how a new edition is going to...

    Yes, as someone who started with Basic (the Moldvay version from 1981) and 1st edition at around the same time, I thought the bonus action was a great addition, as was the notion of advantage/disadvantage. While I'm at it, I love the subclass system combined with backgrounds (seems to nicely...

    Thank you for the notification. His Mark Twain performances were legendary.

    Yes, exactly. He later clarified that his issue was not with bonus actions per se.

    D&D 5E (2024) Revised 6E prediction thread

    Speaking for myself, I see no reason for a sixth edition. It’s fine for a game to have supplemental options. The problem with most of the proposed revisions is that they are either incidental ones that many DMs already do according to their taste, or they interfere with making it easier for a...

    Where Does Inspiration Come From?

    I agree. I appreciate this kind of archaeology of ideas.

    D&D General why do we have halflings and gnomes?

    I have a campaign of no sentients but humans, halflings, gnomes, and dragons. Gnomes are great because they are usually hidden and often going into the Fey Wild and then returning. Halflings are simple villagers who sometimes produce heroes, but they always have to negotiate a difficult and...
