    There's A New Edition Of The Cypher System Coming

    In my games I usually make the difficulty known ahead of time. The only times I don’t are when the PCs are experiencing high levels of confusion or obfuscation and I want to communicate those feelings to the players. Thaumaturge.

    There's A New Edition Of The Cypher System Coming

    Have you read any of the design emails? They have some good indications of the coming changes. For those who haven’t, one of the big changes will be a wound system instead of damage coming from ability pools. That ought to address one of the most common issues I see people talk about with the...

    There's A New Edition Of The Cypher System Coming

    D&D 5E (2024) D&D 2024 Core Rulebooks: 'We'll Still Be Working On Them In May'

    I get that what you’re saying is technically true but releasing an adventure almost four years before the video game isn’t exactly a brilliant marketing ploy. Thaumaturge.

    D&D 5E (2024) D&D 2024 Core Rulebooks: 'We'll Still Be Working On Them In May'

    There weren’t big tie ins to either Baldur’s Gate 3 or the movie. I think they have disadvantage on opportunity attacks. Thaumaturge.

    Over 1,500 Publishers Support Paizo's Upcoming Open RPG Creator's License

    To really regain trust WotC needs to release the SRD under ORC. But that seems so unlikely as to be impossible. Thaumaturge.

    WotC Unveils Draft of New Open Gaming License

    I haven’t made it through all of the pages, but MyLawyerFriend has a breakdown of this version of the OGL, including notes on what is good and what needs improvement. Thaumaturge.

    Hey we’re the Spider-Man meme. Thaumaturge.

    Paizo Announces New Irrevocable Open RPG License To Replace the OGL

    Thoughts on the Cypher System? They have their own open license, SRD, and are more rules light than 5e. Thaumaturge.

    D&D 5E (2024) One D&D Cleric & Revised Species Playtest Includes Goliath

    I like their name choices for these. Thaumaturge.

    D&D 5E (2024) Upcoming One D&D: Unearthed Arcana 'Expert' Classes (Bard, Ranger, Rogue)

    I’m digging class groups. Between the way they’re handling feat prerequisites and spell lists, it really seems like it’ll be easier for them to add full classes in the future. Thaumaturge.

    D&D 5E (2024) First playtest thread! One D&D Character Origins.

    And I can imagine that fighters could get additional weapon dice as an ability at higher levels to give them more power. Thaumaturge.

    D&D 5E (2024) First playtest thread! One D&D Character Origins.

    Please leave that as playtest feedback. That seems like a good idea. Thaumaturge.

    Yes. One for each of the good-aligned planes. Thaumaturge.

    Cultist is a background. Now I want to make a PC named Teft. Thaumaturge.

    D&D 5E (2024) Wizards Presents Live Coverage

    Listening to the play test video gives an indication of how they're going to talk about D&D moving forward. Jeremy Crawford isn't talking about the "5th edition Player's Handbook" he's talking about the "2014 Player's Handbook". Thaumaturge.

    TSR Giantlands

    Okay. Good. We can agree that he’s wrong and that you’re not defending him. Good. Agreed. This is where I both agree and put a huge caveat. Dehumanizing people is always bad. Dehumanizing people only ever takes us to a bad place. The difficulty is when one side agrees with what I just said...

    TSR Just when you thought it was all over.... now there’s a fourth TSR!

    A few years back, a friend and I got to play in a private session with him at a local con. He seemed nice enough to be sure. But it doesn’t seem like that’s an experience I’ll be repeating. Thaumaturge.
