    D&D 5E (2014) Warlock - Pact of the Chain Question

    I managed to find a local store that had the PHB and Horde for sale today, and have been reading through the PHB tonight. I had a question on the Pact of the Chain Warlock Boon. The text states: "You learn the find familiar spell and can cast it as a ritual. The spell doesn't count against...

    D&D 3.x Any of you roll back 3.5 rules to 3.0?

    Holy crap. I guess somewhere in the last decade, I mistakenly picked up the belief that Wizards changed to D6 Hit Dice after 3.0. Thanks. We never played a game past 10th level in 3.0, and probably never past 7th or 8th in 3.5. I have heard of the dreaded 'CoDZilla,' but haven't seen it in...

    D&D 3.x Any of you roll back 3.5 rules to 3.0?

    I was thinking of changing some of the 3.5 rules back to 3.0. Mainly, Wizard hit dice back to D4 (edit: my mistake - they already get D4 hit dice), and using 3.0 Cover Rules. Was just wondering if anyone else had done this, and if the former might have a big impact? Thanks.

    Or maybe the Dr. Pepper dude.

    In my opinion, there is actually a disappointing lack of both outrage and Barbarian Smash in this thread so far.

    I think that quote sums it up nicely.

    I did say he doesn't look 'barbaric,' but I also disagree that he even looks like a barbarian. Something about the clothing.

    Thanks for the link. That image really doesn't scream 'barbaric' to me.

    Class looks cool. No surprise here, I hate the art.

    D&D 5E (2014) Mearls and Crawford interview with The Mary Sue

    That is something we agree on. Not at all, I was just posting to illustrate that the three female players in my gaming group like art that I would consider a bit 'sexy' (my word) and not wholly realistic. Inspiring, art that doesn't have to swing the pendulum to boringly conservative - without...

    D&D 5E (2014) Mearls and Crawford interview with The Mary Sue

    Your original response to my post was: That wasn't about inclusiveness, that was an argument for realism, which is what I was responding to. Also why I specifically pointed out that one of the women in my group is big into the whole sexism in fantasy gaming/comic book art/etc., and still...

    D&D 5E (2014) Mearls and Crawford interview with The Mary Sue

    Yeah, lets take this as ridiculous as possible an argument based on cow dung, clowns, and ducks. That line of thinking is almost as ridiculous as being able to rationalize a levitating eyeball that shoots death rays, but getting hung up on chafing. I have three women I regularly play with in my...

    D&D 5E (2014) Mearls and Crawford interview with The Mary Sue

    Players might like to imagine their characters in that form of dress, just like the Conan character I mentioned earlier in the loincloth, or players that cosplay in chainmail bikinis. Thankfully, none of my players have to abide by the chafing police in the games I run, but it's good to know...

    D&D 5E (2014) Mearls and Crawford interview with The Mary Sue

    Didn't the playtest Barbarian have decent AC without wearing any armor? The way the rules were written, I remember thinking that you could easily do Conan in only a loincloth with them when I read that class description. I don't think 'sense' really has to apply when you are playing a game with...

    D&D 5E (2014) Mearls and Crawford interview with The Mary Sue

    Was the succubus specifically talked about at some point? I was wondering how they would handle the art for that one.
