Congratulations! An oldie but goodie.

If Steve Martin is the mastermind behind this then it goes beyond awesome into EPIC territory! Edit: Name that movie for a virtual cookie!

They are not awesome. They are NOT the worst thing on this list. But they are not awesome (my opinion).

Does anyone still have VHS players anymore? Edit: At least it wasn't BETAMAX!!! :oops:

Exactly, I have 7 year old twins and I'm contemplating getting this for my wife and I to play with them. They'd probably need help at first but I see the rhyming and dancing and imaginative play as being perfect for them! If it turns out they are a bit too young for it then we'll shelve it and...

It looks like each turn, the DM rotates clockwise through each player. All the DM does is read the Monster/Event card for their turn and roll dice for the Monster/Event or adjudicate the outcome on some cards (like who danced best in the dance off for Otto's Irresistible Dance event. If it is a...

Here's a potential sample of the cover art for the new MM:

Or we could rename the MM: "The Pointy End of the Sword Goes Here?"

If you want to have a flying fire-breathing Orc then play an Orc Draconic Bloodline Sorcerer! Granted, flight won't happen until level 14 unless you take the Fly spell at level 5... Oh and your CHA will be behind the curve... but you'll be stronger than a Halfling (maybe)! On a more serious...

Sounds like 1E or 2E is the game for you then?

Niche case but Dwarf DEX Fighter vs Elf Ranger: Dwarf: Level 1 = 15 DEX Level 4 = 16 DEX (Feat with +1 ASI or +1 to 2 stats) Level 6 = 18 DEX Level 8 = 20 DEX Elf: Level 1 = 16 DEX (or 17 DEX)...

Exactly this! Give Elves something like "Keen Senses". Gives them proficiency in Perception and they ignore range penalties on Perception checks or something like that. Not stepping on other Races toes would be difficult but I think doable.

I was using it as a EXTREME example only that likely wouldn't ever see the light of day but it's there, none the less. You can replace DEX with any other "primary stat" for a given Race. This is more an issue of DEX being too important in the system design space.
