    D&D 5E (2014) Collectors series miniatures

    Where do you see the prices? They are resin, which tends to be pricey. Edit: Never mind; I found them. They are pricey, even for resin. They're nice casts, but I doubt I could justify buying them at that price.

    D&D 5E (2014) Starter Set Character Sheet Revealed!

    As of 10/14 (and I think before) you needed 950 for 3rd, not 750.

    D&D 5E (2014) When exactly does Basic come out?

    It makes poor sense from the "I'm going hiking in the White mountains that weekend" standpoint!! I'm seriously considering stopping by all the game stores in the towns I'll be driving through that day.

    D&D 5E (2014) I'm so excited (and I just can't hide it)

    This is awesome. This is about the third time this week you've posted something for which I tried to give you experience points, but was rebuffed for not "spreading them around enough". So I just wanted to say, keep making awesome posts. It would be super cool if we could see graphs of the...

    D&D 5E (2014) Dungeons and Dragons at Origins

    Were these the Codename: Morningstar tables? If so, they were doing Mines of Madness, I read. So, lots of death.

    D&D 5E (2014) Tyranny of Dragons—Dragon & Icons of the Realms Minis

    Both of these are made by Wizkids (makers of Mage Knight and HeroClix). Here's the release info for the Icons of the Realms Starter Set: http://www.wizards.com/DnD/Product.aspx?x=dnd/products/dndacc/iconsstarter The dragons are part of the D&D Attack Wing set. Here is a BoardGameGeek thread...

    D&D 5E (2014) Starter Set: Excerpt 3 (actual)

    That would make sense, except they keep keep saying there are no rules-changes between "basic" and "advanced"; that basic is strictly a subset. Maybe I misinterpreted what they were saying by that. I guess you're right that if focuses are added as an optional module, then it's technically not...

    D&D 5E (2014) Starter Set: Excerpt 3 (actual)

    I notice here that they do not say anything about requiring a magical focus (wand, holy symbol, spell book, etc) in order to obtain the spell casting proficiency bonus for the DC. Now you just get it. Is that new? Or did they mention they were making that change? I really thought they were...

    D&D 5E (2014) Random Starter Set Teaser from Google+

    Apparently. http://web.mit.edu/21h.416/www/militarytechnology/crossbow.html How much did earlier rifles and muskets weigh, I wonder.

    D&D 5E (2014) Mike Mearls did an interview for Escapist Magazine and reveals PHB classes, races, and much more

    I think this is the crux. Adventures need a setting, and a cohesive setting allows for cohesive adventures. With Tyranny of Dragons, they want the PCs to see how their actions impact the greater world, and so they need the greater world to actually be fleshed out and a part of the adventure...

    D&D 5E (2014) 5th edition books available for purchase 2 weeks early at Wizards stores?

    I believe on the day they announced the dates, Liz Schuh (in an interview) and Mike Mearls (via Twitter or Legends and Lore I think?) mentioned that any store that is part of the Wizards Play Network would have the books two weeks early. You can find one near you, or check to see if your FLGS is...

    D&D 5E (2014) 5E PHB on Amazon $30 Pre-Order

    I walked down to my FLGS and asked them, and the people there did not know anything about it, either. So I'm keeping my Amazon preorder, too. I want to support them, but I've had trouble with them ordering games for me. I could have had Catan from Amazon in two days for half the price they...

    D&D 5E (2014) Finding minis for Basic D&D characters - what are the "default" weapons for each basic class?

    For cleric, it depends on domain. From the last playtest packet, Life and Light Domain clerics use a mace, while war clerics use a warhammer. I would guess a battle axe for a dwarf. Mages do need to use some implement in order to get the full benefit of their spells, but this could be anything...

    D&D 5E (2014) The implications of Basic 5E: An adventure-based approach?

    Given that they've spent the past year uploading two to three products a week to DrivethruRPG, I can't imagine them making their own store and cutting DTRPG out of it. It wouldn't make any sense, and it would go over very poorly. I imagine they could partner with DTRPG, though. That seems...

    D&D 5E (2014) Starter Set price back to $17.99?

    You're completely right. When I looked at my order summary, it didn't have any price info and clicking the link brought me to the product page with the current price. But when I clicked on my order number, it showed the price breakdown, and there it has the lower price.

    D&D 5E (2014) Starter Set price back to $17.99?

    I was initially thinking the price guarantee wouldn't be honored, since there's no record of the lower price.

    D&D 5E (2014) Starter Set price back to $17.99?

    Hey I was just checking Amazon, and I noticed the price of the starter set has gone back to $17.99. That's a little fishy of Amazon, isn't it? (I have too few posts to actually post the link.) Edit: I assume the pre-order price guarantee still applies, but there's nothing to indicate what...
