My group and I haven’t come to a point where we’re talking about suspending, but as Umbrian said things are moving so fast I truly have no idea what the next week holds, much less the next month. I had to drop out of my other group due to other life issues right now, right before this started...

Oh come now, it’s not like they’re prestidigitatin’ the Wizard!

I have run it at various gamedays, as more of a "dungeon grind" affair, no roleplaying, because it is very easy to roll up another character quickly and get back in the action. Back when I was between 12 and 15 years old, a friend of mine and I played it into the VERY high levels (Expert Set)...

Sigh I miss my compression fireballs and bouncy lightning. :) I'm in the middle of an old school style 5e game right now -- I wonder if the DM would go for it if I proposed it?

my group has been using some of these for a few months now (including also a “roll init every round” rule that has been working surprisingly well for us.) it has definitely led to a grittier feel, and at one point a TPK.

You must have pretty intense Thanksgivings — or your guests are mainly turkeys. 😀

In our 5e games, we’ve had a TPK at 3rd level, a TPK at level 6, and multiple character deaths from levels 1 through 7. Of the limited experience we’ve had above level 10, we’ve had no deaths. if you stick strictly to the challenge guidelines in the DMG or Xanathar’s then yes, chance of...

I found Mobile to be a good pairing with Moon Druid, for similar reasons - bonus action shift, run in, attack with multiattack, and get behind the tank without taking a hit. All the animal forms are glass cannons, so not giving up a free swipe or sticking in melee is pretty nice.

They’re similar, but similar in that they all use an attack roll and dice. I think the big issue is that, in a given party, EVERYONE will probably have the same attack and damage, because of bounded accuracy, and given their class makeup (for instance, clerics and wizards cant rips will probably...

It is better to remain silent at the risk of being thought a fool, than to talk and remove all doubt of it. - Maurice Switzer

I think the option SHOULD be there, so that the players can choose not to use it, if you get my meaning. Take it away, and people will fight for it. 😁

Hey, Dad left these neat black plastic chew toys for me! He’s so thoughtful...

This is one of my dogs, Ginger. If the dress didn’t give it away, she’s spoiled AF.

I’m convinced Gary’s ecologies were based on someone’s nightmare version of Australian fauna... wanna take a drink from that pond? THROAT LEECHES! want to search that corpse for loot? ROT GRUBS! wanna listen to that door to surprise an enemy? EAR SEEKERS! wanna check out that treasure chest...

Dungeon crawls hold a very sentimental place in my heart - it’s where it all started, with Keep on the Borderlands and White Plume Mountain, for me. No matter how many hexplorations, political intrigues, and mysteries I’ve been through, if a bunch of farmers need us to save them from a bunch of...

Would I love to see it and buy it? Absolutely! Would I want to see someone go broke trying to cater to me and a narrow group of others trying to do it? No. Other than nostalgia, I don’t think it would be worth it for someone to publish a print D&D magazine now.

I’ve always seen myself as more of the “Daffy Duck” Robin Hood, personally... 😃 To Trip it up Aaaaand Down!

Someone PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE create a Mid-life crisis Paladin subclass who summons Ferraris as a sacred mount and gains an armor bonus from leather jackets and mirror shades...

I have a work acquaintance who LOVED Kingmaker, he has probably been playing it for six months straight. I’ve been trying to get him to try tabletop RPGs, but he just won’t do it. It was fun however watching his mind blow when I told him where all of this content was coming from and how many...
