    D&D 5E (2014) WotC Announcement?

    So the dnd twitter feed just posted this: And if you look at the schedule there is a mystery show at 12pm on Thursday. Could be anything, but thought it might be of interest. AD

    Unearthed Arcana Revived, Noble Genie and Archivist Revisited in UA

    I think that would be an excellent bit of feedback when they do the survey. AD

    Unearthed Arcana Revived, Noble Genie and Archivist Revisited in UA

    Does the spellbook remind anyone else of Bob from the Dresden files? AD

    D&D General Joe Manganiello's D&D Campaign Includes a Game of Thrones Creator & Vince Vaughn

    Is it worth noting that Joe has actually been on live streamed games and played with Deborah Anne Woll? And that it is extremely obvious he has no problem playing D&D with women? Probably not. But I'll mention it anyway. AD P.S. Actually, what's obvious is that Joe loves D&D, and he's...

    WotC 5E 2020 Book Clue - I need your help!

    I have no thoughts on anything else. But it's clear from past comments that they start working on projects years in advance of publication, so I doubt it's all for this year. He did imply he could go on about more projects he's working on, but it seems like anything that is 'just starting' is...

    D&D General High Level Adventures Where the World Isn't at Stake

    Hm. Endless possibilities here. But a few off the top: -- Trying to steal something from a powerful entity (demon lord etc.) -- Trying to slay a high level entity and destroy its organization for reasons of revenge -- Competing with other high level factions to obtain ingredients needed to...

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana Revisits Psionics

    With regard to the 'components' discussion, I fall in the category of 'ignore them till they matter story-wise'. Which is too say, that during combats and such I don't pay much attention (which probably gives casters a bit of a power boost that no one has noticed or complained about so far). But...

    D&D 5E (2014) Dungeon of the Mad Mage - Boring?

    I like DMM. But I just consider it a series of dungeons for me to extract and use in my homebrew campaigns. It's like having a collection of dungeons for any level, and they are interesting enough I haven't had a hard time finding reasons to use them with only modest modifications (to suit the...

    Agreed. It's obvious that they take the playtest feedback very seriously. AD

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana Revisits Psionics

    It is possible that they are working on it. They are always cagey about that stuff. It might never see the light of day. But might there be psion designs floating around the office? I'd say it's not unlikely. It's also worth noting that in discussing the demise of the wizard psionic subclass he...

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana Revisits Psionics

    Just listened to Jeremy on Dragon+. He made the following points: 1) They are saying goodbye specifically to the Mystic-- which is the design which has all psionic manifestations all crammed into one class 2) They are not ruling out a psion 3) When directly addressing, will they do a psion...

    D&D 5E (2014) Running High Level 5E is more fun than I thought it would be.

    Just a note on the teleport-- As others have said, the limits on high level spell slots has really worked for us. After one very difficult 'incident' with a demon lord (where they had almost no means of escape), they have taken to trying to conserve a high level spell slot just to have an escape...

    D&D 5E (2014) Running High Level 5E is more fun than I thought it would be.

    I'll add a vote for high level play. Have DM'd a group of characters to 20th, and it has been really fun. And easy. I've been able to run sessions on the fly. I know that doesn't sound like a big deal, but after 3rd edition, the fact that I can just wing a high level campaign is like a dream...

    Unearthed Arcana UA "Brute" -- Any updates?

    To be fair, they intentionally lean toward making their first iteration of a new concept overpowered in order to test whether folks like the idea (better to hit an idea too hard so you can see what it is than to do it too softly so that people don't get what you are trying to do). Brute just...

    D&D 5E (2014) Xanathar's Guide errata coming

    Based on Crawford's twitter feed, they try to time them to try to be simultaneous. But obviously it doesn't always work out perfectly. I think we'll see the errata document soon. When you look back at it, you'll think, 'Oh, those came out about the same time'. Or maybe you won't. I probably...

    D&D 5E (2014) Xanathar's Guide errata coming

    I'm sure DDB will update to the errata once the errata is officially released. I'm sure that's their agreement with WotC. AD

    D&D 5E (2014) DnD Beyond with VTT

    That will be changing relatively soon. As @Maestrino said, they didn't start out to be anything other than a tabletop gaming aid. But they are rapidly evolving. Dice rolling will be in alpha 'soon' (next few weeks maybe?). And the combat tracking and their planned 'interactive maps' will have...

    Crowdfunding News: The Greatest Thieves in Lankhmar, Monsters! Monsters RPG, and more

    Yeah. I picked up several old Lankhmar adventures a few years ago. Haven't had a chance to try to use them in 5e yet. Maybe soon? Thanks for the info. AD
