    My thoughts on the new OGL v1.2 draft

    Great! I approve! But that still means the case wouldn’t show up in Norway. That’s my only point.

    My thoughts on the new OGL v1.2 draft

    But under the OGL 1.2, you would be sued in the US state of Washington, not in Norway.

    My thoughts on the new OGL v1.2 draft

    The nice thing is that became of the leak, WotC would be sued by other creators first for trying to deauthorize the OGL rather than it going to court because WotC sued some poor sap, which helps frame what’s at issue in the case.

    Level Up (A5E) Monstrous Menagerie - Creature Creation - Spellcasting abilities impact

    I don't have a definitive answer, but the chromatic dragons in A5e all have spellcasting variants that don't impact CR (in theory). I would compare your ideas against them as a baseline.

    Level Up (A5E) State of the Archetypes - Jan 6, 23

    As much as I would have loved a normalized schedule, I'll admit that being able to port in O5e subclasses so easily was a big reason I switched and why I was able to convince my players to switch.

    Level Up (A5E) Is there an official Flameskull statblock?

    Closest you’ll probably get are the Mechanoskulls, although they’re the wrong CR.

    Level Up (A5E) Artificer Balancing

    While we’re here, can we also ask what to make the Machinist artificer having a feature that references the Stop action, which was removed in the errata?

    3PP Release (3rd Party Book Release) Paranormal Power: A Psionics Option for 5e and A5e, written by Steampunkette!

    I know the art is very pretty and all, but the only thing I can think is "Huh. Steampunkette has hitchhiker's thumb."

    Level Up (A5E) A5e versions of O5e archetypes in a post-OGL world

    So the AG clearly includes several archetypes that are intended to replace the archetypes from O5e. To give just a few examples: Wizards All 8 subclasses -> Arcanist archetype Druid Circle of Land -> Guardian Circle of the Moon -> Skinchanger Warlock Archfey -> Spellbound Fiend -> Diabolist...

    Cancelling MTG accounts as the next move

    For the record, I was imagining this as the next countermove when they release the “Real” OGL and it inevitably falls short of what’s needed.

    Level Up (A5E) Where to Explore Next?

    I know! :) That’s why I’m bringing this thread back up.

    Cancelling MTG accounts as the next move

    #DnDBegone was obviously great for getting attention from WotC, but we also didn’t get what we really need: a public, legally binding statement from WotC that they cannot deauthorize the OGL 1.0a. Unfortunately, we can’t cancel our subscriptions twice, and the movie won’t be out for another few...

    Level Up (A5E) Where to Explore Next?

    So just a hunch, and its your company so do what you want, but I feel like a direct competitor to any WotC products would probably do well these days. Personally, I’m more interested in seeing the culture-oriented books than planes, but on behalf of everyone else, it might be time to revisit...

    Level Up (A5E) Product Idea: Region Anthology

    One thing about this book (which I am dubbing the Disassembled Atlas until anyone stops me) is that it seems more like a how-to guide than a setting per se. I think that could be a selling point.

    Level Up (A5E) Product Idea: Region Anthology

    This book sounds like it could pair well with some biome-oriented character options. That would expand the appeal to players as well as Narrators.

    Gate Pass Gazette New Project Launched: Level Up: A5E Gate Pass Gazette Annual 2022

    True, although the fact that they’re paid for separately probably allows for everything to be a but cheaper because the physical publication doesn’t finance the articles and vice versa
