    I missed this announcement, Remathilis, what Vampire/Werewolf release is Wizard's releasing in 2021?

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

    Mike Mearls is a great lover of Greyhawk and very well-informed about its lore. As someone alluded to earlier, he has made some interesting comments during a DragonTalk interview and elsewhere about how he thinks some of the elements that make Greyhawk unique were not served well through the...

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

    I think managing expectations is wise, Admundfort, but in the context of the conversation with Winninger and Schu, where they were discussing adventure anthologies as distinct, and wherein Winninger specifically was saying they want to increase focus on campaign settings, it seemed clear to me...

    I really hope two of them are Spelljammer and Dark Sun! (y)

    D&D 5E (2014) Should 5e have more classes (Poll and Discussion)?

    Add that to the classes that I would like to see: psionicist, maybe warlord (maybe not), but definitely arcane fish. Yeah, that's the class for me! :)

    Love ya, Undrave, but I love the monk too. :)

    D&D 5E (2014) Should 5e have more classes (Poll and Discussion)?

    I love your posts, Undrave, and could read what you write all day. But, hear me out: I think there is legitimacy in a game designed around archetypes from literature, films, mythology, and so forth...and not necessarily to fill "design space." I started playing in 1980 and up through the 2000s...

    D&D 5E (2014) Should 5e have more classes (Poll and Discussion)?

    Well, there is no shame in ripping from Pathfinder...they have published a book or two based on the foundation of others' work (and more power to them...they add and refine, I am not casting aspersions here). Let's see, some suggestions in addition to what you offered already: Martial Mage...

    D&D 5E (2014) Should 5e have more classes (Poll and Discussion)?

    I love games within games. We have had games of chess, cards, dice, and even a modified Axis and Allies with the map of the fantasy world take place within our D&D games...just as we have integrated feasts with real food served at the gaming table, and other fun stuff. I don't have the setup...

    Thanks for the clarification. I am sure that you are a great DM and it is fun to play at your table. Your approach sounds great.

    D&D 5E (2014) Should 5e have more classes (Poll and Discussion)?

    I wanted to pause for a moment and just celebrate how amazing you all are. I mean, you are some really, thoughtful, intelligent, creative people. I have read every page of this post, and I totally want to play one of Undrave’s nine warlords. They look awesome! What an epic campaign…and if you...

    Thanks, Crimson, I really appreciate that.

    D&D 5E (2014) Should 5e have more classes (Poll and Discussion)?

    I would like to see a Warlord class, as I liked it in 4th edition...it felt fresh and new. I know that there are 5th edition Warlords out there, and I have only skimmed them, but maybe you all could tell me what you think of this idea: A warlord as a fighter subclass where there are various...

    D&D 5E (2014) Should 5e have more classes (Poll and Discussion)?

    Variety, for one. Each different model will have a different emphasis or flavor into which a player may lean when role-playing. I am not seeing the problem here. It is a fun game as is, why are we wanting to change it...so that there is only one possible way to create a Drizzit character? And...

    D&D 5E (2014) Should 5e have more classes (Poll and Discussion)?

    I agree. Rangers have been a class for almost 45 years...4th edition made many admirable changes, including many that streamlined unnecessary elements, but some of those changes were received by players as altering the feel of the game so that it no longer felt like D&D. There is no harm in...

    D&D 5E (2014) Should 5e have more classes (Poll and Discussion)?

    Yes...but the legacy is a great one...and a fun one! I love that we have ranger, paladin, barbarian, and so forth. What a joy to use the game to make a D&D version of a favorite character or characters from pulp fiction, comics, movies, literature, or mythology...a joy that goes way back to the...

    D&D 5E (2014) Kate Welch on Leaving WotC

    These are good reminders, Jayoungr; there is so much material out there, it is easy to forget about both the "Quick Build" tips in the PHB and the pre-generated character sheets available through the website.

    D&D 5E (2014) Kate Welch on Leaving WotC

    I agree. The principle item I miss from the PHB list (which they did do in XGE) is an inclusion of the school of magic in parentheses for each spell in the spell list. But, then again, I run over to the D&D Beyond website (and I am not a paying member) and I get all that info in ten seconds, and...
