It's not so hard. Players: We run away! DM: Ok, we'll switch to the chase rules. (The real problem is that the chase rules are less than great, but at least they exist)

There are chase rules in the DMG for resolving running away, you don't have to treat it as a combat encounter.

It's hard to be scared when your party is the scariest thing in the room. D&D is perhaps a horror story... for the monsters!

Thriller is definitely on the supernatural side, with all the zombies and vampires in the music video. One of Michael Jackson's best works!

Not all horror stories are speculative fiction. Slasher movies for example are set in the present time and often don't have any supernatural elements.

Anyone can refer to their product as 6th edition. Only WotC can refer to a product as Dungeons & Dragons, since that term is still trademarked.

If WotC were to release a D&D miniatures wargame, they'd probably be best off releasing it with a brand new setting, tailor-made with a bunch of distinct factions at constant war.

That's what you should always be doing as a DM if you want to beat the players in combat. Spreading attacks around is a waste no matter what the party composition is.

Yes, there are tons on My Mini Factory.

Of course, a veteran gamer will go "I get 3 meat shields?! Time to pull out that sorlock build I've always wanted to try!"

People were unhappy with the half-caster warlock because it was severely nerfed, among other things. It was by no means stronger than the short-rest warlock.

The phrase "willingly moves" in Booming Blade is obviously there so that the spell can't be powered up by forcing the target to move and taking the extra damage. It's hard to explain in the fiction how this actually works, so if the potential for exploits doesn't bother you, ruling that all...

As always with D&D beyond statistics, I'm curious about how many of these characters are actually played, and how many are build experiments, and if there is a significant difference in distribution between the two. Interesting stats none the less!

I'm pretty sure that the rules are the way they are so that cantrips remain relevant at higher levels, even for multiclass characters.

That's the point, for any practical purposes it can't be done, so demanding WIP files from artists is and will continue to be a safe way to ensure you're not paying for AI generated art.

@trappedslider The discussion is about a potential model to create a "fake" edit history to make it possible to pass off an AI work as if it was hand made, for fraudulent purposes. So it would have to mimic the traditional art process, not the AI art one.

To make such a model you'd also need a lot of training data, ie. load and loads of sequences of WIP pictures. Artists sometimes post WIPs, but they rarely share the entire edit history, so getting enough data to train a model would be challenging, to say the least. You can probably make a LORA...

Polymorph also doesn't say anything about whether you can transform into various individuals of each form, so it can be interpreted either way.

The only things that scale with character level rather than class level are the things explicitly called out in the multiclassing rules. Multiclassing is an optional rule, so the class rules are generally not written with multiclassing in mind, they all assume a single-class character. So you...
