I am also interested in this.

I used milestone in 4e, and tried it in 5e...didn't like it, though; it felt...cheap? It was odd. Now, I use XP--but I also give XP for a lot of things besides killing monsters; it's completing quests, completing in-character goals, etc. I'm also one of those DMs that keep track of where the...

Alignment. Concentration. Encumbrance. Slow release schedule.

This is the proper way of thinking, IMO. However, I don't think the "just add more encounter" advice has been debunked. Given that this is solely an anecdote, my groups over the last two years have shown that if you get the adventuring day right as a DM, things work as intended. Getting that...

Well, I'd take the survey results with the knowledge that they're not going to release books that quickly--intentionally so. My gut feeling is that Eberron would be next, at some point towards the end of next year; I'd not be surprised to see a bit of it come up in the Unearthed Arcana articles...

I like the subclasses, personally; makes me wonder what the cleric domains coming out will be like (should be next week, since they seem to be going alphabetically).

Did they, by any chance, mention what the next few UAs are going to be?

....so, my brain forgot about that. This is what happens when I write settings. My reading comprehension drops. That means, of course, that En5ider will have the full conversion for Zeitgeist. Whelp. Guess I'm getting that. Will it be a full conversion, i.e. everything needed will be in that...

To my love of the setting and campaign, yes. To everything else, no. But, I still want it, so, if/when it's done, it might be something to save up for...I might have to violate my "always sandbox" rule for this one.

.......gosh darnit. I have so many others things to buy. I'm waiting on 3-4 Kickstarters from Frog God Games, OLD hardcover (which i want quite badly), new gaming rig, new car for my wife...gah.

The latest Ranger Playtest only needs a couple tweaks, then it's pretty good.

But...but...what about muh Mystic...?

....Safehold? I forgot about that series! Where did I stop? Book four? I'd like to see sources on all the rumors, especially the new Barbarian subclasses and the 1/week articles.

That was the rumor, like, a month ago. It might also be, instead, the extended downtime rules to give higher-level players things to do with their money. Way my luck goes, it'll be the latter before the former, but I'm hopeful for Mystic.

I've always been of the opinion that 3pp or homebrew is usually allowed--however, it is the sole province of the DM to decide whether or not the homebrew or 3pp product is balanced. Sometimes, they aren't, and I'll fix them if I can, or ban them outright if they can't be fixed. There will always...

Yeah, gotta third (fourth?) the suggestion for war domain cleric. Shield, heavy armor, hit stuff and be full caster.

Lost City of Barakus by Frog God Games; fun dungeon crawl, with some fun magic items. You'd have to convert, though, to 5e. Not a hard thing to do, however, just slightly time consuming if you're like me. There's also Stoneheart Valley, although I wouldn't call that a short adventure (neither...

Oo. Got links to the sandboxy type areas adventures? I've got a world to populate, after all. If I had a complaint about FGG, it's that; while they make a sandbox, there are some areas of their sandbox--example, in Sword of Air--that are completely bereft of any details. The city Apothasalos...

It plays right into my worldbuilder-obsessive personality by only teasing bits and pieces as you go along reading, making me want more and more.
