Wizkids effectively serves as the miniature producing arm of WotC here. Calling it WotC rather than Wizkids was shorthand. You're technically correct - but Wizkids can't produce anything without permission from WotC, so it is still WotC calling the shots in the end. I'm sure they work...

We have 4 Demogorgons: A Large Aspect of Demogorgon that was in a randomized DDM set in the early 2000s, a boxed set Demogorgon that came out in 2017 in a non-randomized fashion, a Medium sized Demogorgon that was a preorder incentive for the same boxed set, and then the non-randomized one...

Why? Why put equivalent miniatures into the secondary market that can be purchased for less than the $80 it takes to buy your big expensive ones? Why anger retailers who get 'stuck' with the product already on their shelves when demand for them drops? Why cut off future orders of those more...

I make homebrew items all the time - over half of what my PCs find is homebrew, taken from a third party source, etc... There are two ways to think about introducing the items: 1.) Cater to the PC - This gives a very flavorful option that builds upon the PC and helps create a good story...

The way I'd handle this would be to tell the play that I have an idea and I'd like his blessing to run with it. I'll provide something, but your PC will not start off aware of it. Then, during the session, I'd have a soundboard that I can access to pick sounds at the touch of a button. There...

His tale as it related to the OGL aligns with a concern I've been raising - the loss of customers for D&D, especially due to the edition wars, resulting in harm to the community. As people divide away from D&D (whether into other options or just away from buying RPGs) it makes it harder for...

Are you saying that it looks like they're trying to figure out the best way to keep the bottom bar that you need to click to exit in order to use the basic functionality of the site? If the plan is to have those banner and/or video adds at the bottom continue to be there and to require...

To me, this would be anytime you draw power from a supernatural force that has an embodiment, but that does not involve explicit worship as one worships a God. Within 5E we have: Archfey, Great Old Ones, etc...: Warlocks as others have described. Also Blood Hunters fit here if you use the...

Last estimate I heard for BG3 sales was 6 million copies. At $60 or $70 per copy, that would be ... far less than 1bn in US Dollars. I hear lifetime total sales for OS 2 was about the same. Lifetime they may have $1Bn overall all their titles. Does anyone have data contradicting that?

Man, you folks get a little honest facts thrown up on you and you give up your conspiracy theory 'just like that'? You don't jump to claiming Morrus is in on it, that they have to say there is nothing to it in case it doesn't pan out (or contractually WotC has to say it to discourage other...

I do see it a bit differently than you explain it. When your soul leaves the body, you left the body. The character goes with the soul, not the meat. The body is a prosthetic for the soul to use. The Magic Jar spell seems to treat the soul similarly with how it describes the soul and you...

Short answer: Nope. Souls and Spirits are different things in my setting (although the difference is meaningless for most purposes), but they're the gasoline in the engine. Without one, your character is just a husk. This has been my ruling for decades, but 5E aligns with it in the first...

Wear clothes.

I do not believe I have. I have Reapers that guard the moment of death (opposing undead and drawing new opportunities from the end of a life). Anything that dies within 15 of them get the benefits of the Ceremony spell that prevents you from rising as undead for 7 days. They can...

Do you have a Jenga tower? If so, look up a game called Dread. Basically, you tell a story and have players pull from the tower when they want to do something with any risk at all - and if it falls their character finds disaster. The key elements are that you don't really need to have any...

Candela Obscura is not popular on Critical Role or in game sales. It is, essentially, steampunk and that is not a popular genre. They don't have their primary cast, and every show that failed to have their primary cast has had faint following compared to the mothership. Time will tell. If we...

Right. Wait for the fire before buying that fire extinguisher. Got it. You need to know the house is on fire, not speculate it could happen. I mean - they'll let you buy the health insurance after you know you're sick, right? And life insurance should never be purchased until right before...

If Critical Role goes to Campaign 4 and runs it on Daggerheart - when it releases - it will be a big swing. You're underestimating the potential here. The Venn Diagram around the newest D&D players and Critical Role fans has a lot of overlap - and the newest players are the best source for...

I'm not one to write off looking ahead to prepare for the future. If more people found preparation interesting we'd have less problems sneak up on us. Do you sell a stock when it is high or low? High, right? The people that sell high and buy low successfully do very well in the stock market...
