    D&D 5E (2024) 'One D&D' Takes 5E to New & Digital Places

    I like the design space of feats as character abilities not tied to class. I hope they embrace it. Feat bloat would be preferable to sub-class bloat.

    Spelljammer Spelljammer: Adventures in Space Review

    The format is a fail then. There is little value in the separate printings if we lose a third of the material we expect for a release.

    Spelljammer Spelljammer: Adventures in Space Review

    No, no Spelljammer is done for the foreseeable future. I think they were testing this format for setting releases. It needs more meat on the bones if they were to release say, Dark Sun, in this format. I also agree it was a way to disguise the price hike. I don't begrudge them charging more for...

    D&D General One Piece of Art V (Places)- What Piece of D&D Art Inspired You to Love a Place

    Sadly I can not decide between two pieces of art. I must break the sacred rule. Snarf, I cry your pardon. City feel Both of these formed what fantasy cities are in my settings.

    Spelljammer Spelljammer: Adventures in Space Review

    So what is there is good, but not near enough of it? I was worried when they announced the three 64-page hardcovers that there would not be enough space to flesh out all the concepts of Spelljammer. I believe they tried to use the art in lieu of exposition. It works for some things, but not...

    D&D 5E (2024) Dungeons and Dragons future? Ray Winninger gives a nod to Mike Shea's proposed changes.

    5E can support a lot more rules and system diversity than we have seen to date. I hope the Anniversary edition will provide a nice stable platform to expand to new magic systems and different avenues of play in post-2024 releases. Fold in the design principles in the later splats to the core...

    Spelljammer Why is the upcoming Spelljammer book worth getting excited about?

    This version of Spelljammer is leaning a lot more into the sci-fi influences than the previous, but it is still D&D in Space. The biggest draw of Spelljammer is its expansiveness. You can have cohesive adventures that explore many different cultures and styles without seeming a kitchen sink or...

    D&D General One Piece of Art IV (Races)- What D&D Art Inspired You to Love a Race (Lineage, Ancestry)

    As a wee tyke, I came across the Jeff Dee illustration of Phoebus, a human fighter reincarnated as a lizard man in the Rogues Gallery. I was determined to play a lizardman character. So Semris, the lizardman assassin was born in ~1984. I have loved Lizardmen since the heady days of dying to...

    D&D 5E (2024) August 18th Tarrasque-sized D&D News (Poll)

    VTT announcement but no beta, just alpha footage. New MtG setting for both MtG and 5E to release simultaneously. An RTS game for Dragonlance to spin off from the board game battle system. Teasers for a previous D&D setting (May it be Greyhawk to appease Snarf and prevent his horrible wrath)...

    D&D General One Piece of Art II (Monsters)- What D&D Art Inspired You to Love a Monster?

    I do love this and it forever cemented my idea that giant spiders were furry jumping spiders rather than web-making sleek orb weavers.

    Spelljammer Spelljammer Shows Up In The Wild - Check Out The Tables of Contents

    WotC can release a Psion wizard subclass with a custom 'psionic' spell list and a few ribbon abilities. There will be no 'psionic system' for 5E from WotC. I agree with @delericho Defiling should be a constant temptation, if not the default state of arcane magic. I hate the idea of automatic...

    D&D General One Piece of Art II (Monsters)- What D&D Art Inspired You to Love a Monster?

    I know I am not a smart man, but there has been a slip up here and there. I have lots of arts I like too.
