I've run Planescape in 5E with minimal work; just had to fit Factions into the 5E rules, and folks have already done that work for me. (Alternative) Only think missing is psionics, which I've never cared about that much, anyway, and there are DMsGuild releases plus the Mystic class that cover...

They'd be foolish to NOT have Greyhawk -- specifically Castle Greyhawk -- as a 50th anniversary release. (Of course, there's all the drama around Gail Gygax, though, so it might not be worth it from a financial standpoint.)

Yeah, plus it gets room to have some things that aren't 30+ year old stuff we're all bored by at this point. If part of the gameplay is about discovering and exploring the larger world, having some different races, archetypes, backgrounds, and so on goes a long way toward making it feel...

Interesting! Not to derail the thread much, but could you sum up a few reasons why? I loved a lot of Dungeon World, but when I ran it, I found myself immediately -- almost subconsciously -- houseruling several things. So obviously while I liked some bits, there were others that I simply...

Interesting. I didn't know they've moved to PBtA, but that makes sense. They play so fast and loose with D&D that this probably makes sense for folks looking for a similar "template" to play from: much of D&D's downtime systems and more involved combat strategy stuff doesn't really seem like...

Nice! I held off from getting these because of the factors many other folks have noted: including reprints of the original adventures didn't seem *that* big of a draw for the page count, the price tag was a bit high, and the conversion work seems relatively easy, overall. I finally picked up...

What's still interesting to me is that AD&D predominantly rises above any other OSR by a pretty big factor, but so much of the OSR tries to emulate B/X or OD&D. OSRIC, the AD&D clone, has a highly active playing and forum community yet seems to be ignored in terms of getting an SRD out, having a...

Warrior refers to the goblin warrior, not a player character. So, it's basically saying "if any [allied] goblin [presumably could be a goblin commando, goblin shaman, etc.] ends a move action adjacent to the goblin warrior, the goblin warrior steps."

Oof. That "As goblin warrior" reference is a little painful. It works in the context of the book: both stat blocks show up on the same page, referencing the thing nearby is easy. Okay. But in an adventure where you might not have an encounter that features both creatures, you suddenly have to...

I'm a backer of the KS. Here are my feelings and notes: 1. Development is like 99% done. We've already got the books, with the exception of the Advanced stuff, but the previews have proven those are very far along and just need some final edits and layout. Art is coming in, and literally every...

Yeah, I can't imagine how many gamers and small-time creators are applying for this position that's way high-level and will have a huge amount of analyzing dollars and cents, and selling financial projections for executives. Not a fun job (IMHO), but a powerful role indeed.

Come to Dalentown! Establish a headquarters for your adventures as you explore bizarre wilderness sites and ancient dwarven tombs, or pass through and get embroiled in local intrigue! Adventures in Dalentown for 5th edition is now available on DriveThruRPG! It features loads of encounters, new...

I LOVE this art!

Condolences to his family and friends. He is a giant in the industry, even if his name is not a household one among the gamers.

For campaign length (at least 5 levels-ish), hands down I'd recommend Hidden Halls of Hazakor. It's built for both new players and new DMs, making it super-simple to prep and to run, and for the players to feel like they are awesome. Of your listed considerations, Saltmarsh is by far the best...

I vehemently disagree with this. I realize why the module is presented the way it was, and I both accept and enjoy that presentation. That doesn't mean we have to run it as-is, and in fact, I'd argue the purposely old school sensibility of the module's design takes into account how much DMs can...

I use these every session: Companion System Companion System Companion (Updated OP to include links, as well.)

You should really get that looked at by a physician. :lol:

Hi folks! TL;DR - I'm running the Stranger Things starter set adventure Hunt for the Thessalhydra for Int'l Tabletop Day at my local comics & game shop, and I'm wondering what tips, tricks, and mods people employed. Slightly longer version - Here are some slightly more specific things I'm...
