    D&D General Humanoids...and world demographics

    Advancement was slow…we did not have many high level fighter magic user elves…we did get a party up to 9th level and were drunk with power…relative power… We did not push limits with any triple class characters! That is for sure!

    D&D General Humanoids...and world demographics

    Level limits for Demi humans? My group who is still together surely did.

    D&D 5E (2024) I have a Monster Manual. AMA!

    I don’t own it…went to a bookstore and was Impressed by the quality of the art and weight of the tome. It is packed… The regular cover is just impressive. And those assessments are coming reom Someone who is not into a lot of the changes… Edit: realize I am talking to people that have now...

    WotC Mike Mearls: "D&D Is Uncool Again"

    No but it made teenage me reject 2e. My group in fact was offended by that and the dropping of assassins…

    D&D General Drow & Orcs Removed from the Monster Manual

    You are not going to prove anything. Rather ask what proof do you have that D&D causes bad behavior? After reviewing the evidence I don’t think your answer will change. The scant literature on this suggests generally good things; but I have found people are not generally interested in things...

    D&D General Drow & Orcs Removed from the Monster Manual

    I will ask only this: I am told this change is good or makes sense based on a premise I find to be not true. Without this premise being true are these good functional changes for the game? I will not say this ruins the game or makes the game unplayable. But I do not see a good rationale for...

    D&D General Drow & Orcs Removed from the Monster Manual

    Funny you should say. They sleep in my bed and get healthy people food ;) from time to time. But reskin orcs as a culture in the real world? Why would we start doing that? I reject the premise that they were previously similar to any real world group unless the general savagery of...

    D&D General Drow & Orcs Removed from the Monster Manual

    Totally. But we can still have dogs or wolves as a creature entry in general, I assume. Or multiple entries…it’s a moot point I realize upon reflection. Buy the book or not said to self and other.

    D&D General Drow & Orcs Removed from the Monster Manual

    You know it’s amazing. Having fought death dogs, hell hounds, and other 4 legged canine monsters, I have not chosen to abuse dogs. In fact I still donate to animal charities. It’s almost like I can tell these are fantasy creatures and don’t over generalize to real world creatures and actions...

    D&D General Drow & Orcs Removed from the Monster Manual

    Is there a genuine gameplay benefit to leaving some humanoid monsters out of the MM? I know it can be fixed and put together but genuinely want to know what I am missing.

    Effects of tariffs on game sales (e.g. US/Canada shipments) (No Politics!)

    I admit that my time is pretty tight…I don’t have as much time to paint as I would like. Mostly grabbing prepainted…10% is not much but assume it’s not 1:1… Gaming stuff has never been cheap and has been rising. This does not help!

    Effects of tariffs on game sales (e.g. US/Canada shipments) (No Politics!)

    I buy lots of minis…I am wondering about how much this will hit prices since I know a lot of them are made in china. I mean I am getting fleeced so bad already…don’t know how much I will notice…but I also wonder how long it will be in place vs be used as a bargaining tactic. We shall see. But...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I did pinewood derby as a kid. We had the bright idea to saw a darth Vader figure in half and glue him torso and up into the car. I wanted a red circle in back…you know a spaceships thruster… It was black and had a ‘Vader 6’ painted On the side. We glued some lead weights in it but it was...

    Are Orcs in the Monster Manual? No and Yes.

    I can handle opinions that differ from mine. I can handle preferences different than mine. What I find less palatable is the near gaslighting that happens in some of these discussions. Person A: This is an important and needed change… Person B: I don’t like it. Person...

    D&D 5E (2024) Monster manual Fey video up

    I liked holy swords and evil artifacts…and the notion of good and evil in the universe being something real. You’re actually not alone in that…but that does not change things. Run the game you want or find a good group. I sat out 2e, 3.5 and mostly 4e and now face a choice again. But I...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Hit in the head with a bunch of boomerangs! That is all I recall of my all time favorite nes game… Good luck!

    OSR Dragonslayer RPG truly delivers.

    It is super thick and the Easley cover is an Easley cover. Tempted to buy dwareowdeep but have bareowmaze for 5e I have not used. Assume I can use this with old becmi modules.
