    Spoilers Dune Prophecy

    Definitely felt like dune on the first outing, solid start. If I were to pick nitpick anything, its the notion that this is 10 THOUSAND years before paul. Even in some of the trailers and reviews they think its 1000 years, because 10,000 is so mind boggling long. Its weird that so many things...

    DDAL DMG Guidance new as Nov 12

    This was my take as well. The few times I’ve tried AL we used pretty much all the time for the adventure, and it seems that doing 5 players worth of bastion turns would take a chunk of change

    Trailer Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning | Teaser Trailer

    I think part of the issue is not showcasing how dangerous it is....its showcasing how dangerous its not. When you have an enemy that can track every move you make, has the resources of the entire world at their disposal, and is simply smarter than you.... I mean how do you beat that...

    Trailer Captain America: Brave New World | Official Trailer

    It was a god like creature that was "as no one knows except the eternals how it was changed" magically changed into some stone like substance. Yeah, can't imagine anyone would want to own or study that ;)

    D&D 5E (2024) Kobold Press posts 2024 DMG Hit Piece

    Just read the article. I think the points they made seem reasonable just in my cursory look at the DMG and notes I've gotten from other people. But I do agree that the "this book sucks, but our book is great here!" over and over in the article is not a good look. It doesn't feel like a review...

    D&D General Powering Up and Delayed Actions

    In dave2008s monster compendium, his recent dragons do exact this. They get a breath weapon, and then it requires an action to recharge them. I think the key to this working, is you want to create a scenario where the monster cannot be attacked as easily, and therefore, the party considers...

    Arcane Season 2 Starts on Saturday, 9 Nov 24 on Netflix

    The graphical style of Arcane continues to impress. This season they do a few scenes that are just a series of still images back to back, and yet they invoke such wonderful emotion. My only fear is if this the last season, there does seem to be a lot to close out. the war, the mystery of the...

    Arcane Season 2 Starts on Saturday, 9 Nov 24 on Netflix

    And yet we live in a world where people often feel shows live on long past their expiration dates, and we are left with lame final seasons with terrible endings that ultimately take the shine off the show's legacy. Netflix's choice to keep shows small in exchange for continuous innovation is a...

    D&D 5E (2024) Web: Power Overwhelming

    just for funnsies, it looks like a 20 foot cube contains 64 5 foot cubes if I did my math right. So 128d4 damage if you can find something big enough!

    D&D General Homebrew Martial Ranger Class. Ranger Paths (Archetypes) included in Link

    you want to put something in the OP that indicates this is a homebrew, it took me a 2nd to realize what I was looking at.

    D&D 5E (2024) Free Rules Updated with DMG content.

    I will continue to apologize, but I seem to be missing something. I've seen some people post about the lore glossary updates and various things in this thread, but I am not seeing any kind of lore glossary in the free rules.

    D&D 5E (2024) Free Rules Updated with DMG content.

    really dumb question, where do I find these magical new rules? Like I don't actually know where the free basic dmg stuff is.

    D&D 5E (2024) Did you make up your mind about 5.24?

    I'm in the "not much different" camp, at least not yet. The classes I do think are improved, but there are other areas that feel like a step back. I think its a "one and a half steps forward, one step back" kind of thing. The MM might change my mind though, as I do think monster design is a...

    Spoilers Agatha All Along discussion

    I'll agree with that. I actually wonder if they were gunshy on this one, they were afraid it woudl't do well, and decided to cram in as much "plot" as they could to keep it interesting. But yeah the show was really good, I hope they slow it down a bit in the season 2 and let it breathe more, no...

    D&D General Watch the Baldur's Gate 3 Cast Play 'What We Do In The Shadow-Cursed Lands'

    Can't speak for all voice actors of course, but the two I've seen interviews for they both said the vast majority of time spent as a VA was auditioning, making tapes and sending them in for jobs. The actual work time in the booth wasn't a huge time commitment Having steady work is the dream...

    Spoilers Agatha All Along discussion

    So I was pretty pleased with the finale. So I got some of the emotional beats I was looking for. The fact that the road was real but also "fake" explained a lot of Agatha's behavior, she didn't take it seriously because.....there was nothing to take serious. Billy finally had a moment of...

    D&D 5E (2024) So how do you remove disease in 5E 2024?

    The change to detect poison and disease is actually a very large one in world building terms. The spell is incredibly powerful because it has a decent duration and is a ritual, so even the lowliest cleric can bust it out all day. It is trivial during outbreaks for everyone to just run past the...

    Spoilers Agatha All Along discussion

    Momentum is a powerful factor, and I agree just "staying in the loop" on the entirety of the MCU is a reason I do watch some of what I do. The break point for me was Echo, I just could not get into that show, and I actually stopped. We will see if I suffer remorse later on!

    D&D 5E (2024) Damage Threshold, the new "need a magic weapon"?

    Dave2008s monster compendium has tried a number of such mechanics for dragons: D&D 5E - 5e Updates: Monstrous Compendium The most recent concept, is that damage is halved against attacks from 150+ feet. So this means the ranged army does a lot less damage than PCs tbst get close and personal...
