    Maps From Adventures

    Are you asking specifically for a VTT or an in-person around the table map? I never play online so no idea for that, but for around the table I have enlarged maps on the computer with PCPaint or something simple and printed out on the 11x17 page. This works for small maps and rooms mostly...

    What do you do when a Player dies?

    I had a friend brought into the group maybe 20 years ago now with another who played. They were fine people and became regulars. We played several years together and occasionally got together as a group out of D&D. We were friends. He hung himself one day in the woods near his home. Seems...

    D&D General NPC Descriptions: DM Formatting Preferences

    I tend to use a paragraph myself, more of the "7 sentence NPC" from an old Dragon article. Some reason I like the option 2 above though. I can see this under the statblock of the NPC taking half a page for each main bad guy. I feel it would make it easier to run.

    Level Up (A5E) What Druid wild shape forms would you allow to throw Seed Bombs? Or use an object?

    I would tend to vote that they all can or all cannot. Have we ever seen a monkey throw a stick. I seem to think that they are not very accurate. But, then they have your intelligence so maybe they can figure out release and such if they have the arm structure. Then another question is if a...

    D&D General How Do I Help Mentor a GM Making Rookie Mistakes?

    It is hard being a first time DM, especially so if the other players are experienced DMs and/or older people. You want to encourage her to be the DM, but also want a consistent style and rules. Some things are flexible and others might not be. Critical hits with a lingering injury- maybe...

    Who is your favorite James Bond?

    I say Connery is the most iconic and classic, because he played golf with Goldfinger and caught him cheating. The most enjoyable films though were the new Craig ones. The most quoted though...

    D&D's New Solo Player Guideline Explained

    I'm thinking of when my son started playing with me when he was 9. We played with a NPC that could add some combat and such. I'm wondering if he played with these new rules and learned this way if he would like to play the 'normal' way when we started playing with more people. Not sure if the...

    Phase 5 of the MCU is over

    I stopped caring if I watched them. I used to want to see them in order or track the timeline and get more involved, but now most of them do not appeal to me in any way. Love to see a good FF movie, but the preview seems off as well on this one. I would like to be wrong though.

    I'm wondering why people think she is underdressed! It looks fine to me.

    D&D's New Solo Player Guideline Explained

    I guess the easiest way to play with one PC is to have a bunch of rerolls and 3 times the HP. This way the DM does not need to modify the adventure. It seems easier than the gestalt rules where you have two classes that go up at the same time. Now what do I get if there are two players...
