    Here Comes The STRAHD DM SCREEN

    The COS book has rules for using a standard deck of cards as a Tarroka Deck, so you can play the adventure to the full extent. I've ordered a deck for myself, since they look cool, and I'll get some use out of it, but honestly it's $10 for a single draw of 5 cards. It wouldn't even take that...

    Dragonlance Dragonlance 5E

    It's been a long time since I played Dragonlance, but can't it pretty much be summed up as steel pieces instead of gold, no priests, and Dragonmen ?

    D&D 5E (2014) Curse of Strahd spoiler-filled general discussion

    I get that you didn't like the changes, but I don't think your depiction is a fair characterization. Strahd emulates daddy for approval, Dad dies before giving him the thumbs up. Strahd builds big ass castle for mommy dearest's approval, mommy favors younger slacker bother, and dies before...

    What 5e got wrong

    Your scenario requires a DEX 20 fighter and only applies to Archery. It also wouldn't be worth taking if it was any lower.

    D&D 5E (2014) Disguise Self

    No one is saying that Disguise Self isn't usefull, it's that it's equivalent to mundane disguise in usefulness. Where Disguise Self is superior to mundane disguse is that it's application time is better. It's magic, it needs to be superior in that respect, otherwise what would be the point of...

    D&D 5E (2014) 5E Psionics Conversion.

    Meh, if you spent 40 PSPs on a disintergrate attempt at low level, you were pretty much done for the day. Psionicist: "I summon all my inner strength to rip that Ogre apart with the power of my mind" DM: Rolls dice "The Ogre feels a slight tingle and not much else" Psionicist: "Sorry guys, I'm...

    D&D 5E (2014) 5E Psionics Conversion.

    The 2E Psionics have always been my favorite, but that really has to do with them bieng the first Psionic rules for D&D I wrapped my head around. Never used the 1E Psionic rules. The 3E ones had MAC(Mental Armor Class) and that was about as far as I got into them. Didn't even know they existed...

    D&D 5E (2014) DMing "Out of the Abyss"

    Our party slaughtered Glabagool the instant they saw him. No one bought a firendly, telepathic, gealatonous cube, and were looking for the hiding wizard trying to fool them. ;)

    D&D 5E (2014) Deal Breakers - Or woah, that is just too much

    Evil should not equal stupid. Jayne Cobb, from Firefly, was a selfish and not too bright, but he understood the value of the group he travelled with. Boba Fett was utterly ruthless to his adversaries, but loyal to Dengar once they started working together.

    D&D 5E (2014) Downtime Training for Feats?

    I believe the context of the discussion was learning feats outside of normal advancement. 30 days to learn a feat in addition to normal advancement would actually make the ASIs a no brainer, where you take all the ASIs and then just learn feats as needed in between adventures. -- In my own...

    D&D 5E (2014) [D&D 5E] Calculating CRs for low level creatures question

    Thanks! That's what seemed logical to do, but I couldn't find it in the actual wording.

    D&D 5E (2014) I TPL'd (Total Party Lycanthroped) my players and they don't know yet! Best time to reveal and fun alternate rules sought.

    Option 2 sounds the best. Not only does it provide the better roleplaying oppertunities, but it limits the potential casaulties until they figure out their situation.

    D&D 5E (2014) [D&D 5E] Calculating CRs for low level creatures question

    When your calculating the CR for a creature with a fractional CR value and adding +1 to the CR, are you adding a solid +1 to the CR or +1 CR level, taking it to the next fractional level ? Does CR 1/4 +1 = 1(Rounded down from 1.25) or 1/2 ?

    Elise Gygax as a Sultry Dungeons & Dragons Model

    I posted it because I thought it was funny that they advertised D&D that way. After your rant, I was curious if he sited sources, http://www.dragonsfoot.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=48401&start=15 , Tim Kask lists the model as Elise Gygax. According to Tim Kask she also did some advertising...
