If by some chance you don't already have this, I wanted to make you aware of it! It's a real labor of love on the part of the creator: https://www.enworld.org/threads/mystara-players-guide-free-for-download.682073/

Not sure why we're debating whether WotC will stop printing physical books. During the OGL fiasco, didn't Cao come right out and say they plan for books to be "treasured collectibles" in future? That suggests that they will continue to print physical books but likely in extremely reduced numbers...

And I like that the backgrounds in 5E are mostly there for RP purposes. I don't like the fact that people will now be picking them for their mechanical benefits. Just to say it takes all kinds.

Hypnotic Pattern is a big one. It could, for example, put the boss completely out of commission while the PCs deal with the minions, no matter how long it takes, and then they all focus-fire the boss.

As far as I know, there's no rule that legendary resistances have to be always 3 per day. That's just kind of the default number.

So my party has three aasimar (out of seven PCs) in it. Their angelic guides have not featured yet in the game, but the group is due to arrive at Candlekeep in the next session and that seems like a good time to bring the guides into the story. I'd like to hear what any other players have done...

I'm still confused. Are you saying that a psi-warrior doesn't possess psionic power in the fictional world, just because his powers don't have a separate set of mechanics in the rulebooks? I don't see why the rules should dictate the fiction in this case. To approach it from another angle...

Why not? Why is a full class required in order to have an organization?

Downloaded! Thanks for posting it.

There are currently (in 5E) psionic subclasses--is that enough for an organization?

True, but I wouldn't be surprised if they're the last ones.

What a shame. I have some of these alternate covers and really like them. (Wish I had picked up the alt-cover version of Xanathar's.) As for what the "new direction" means, didn't WotC say that in future, they plan for books to be "cherished collectibles" rather than the main way of delivering...

Nice! I missed this Kickstarter--probably would have backed it if I'd been aware at the time. Just curious, why is the 5E PDF more expensive than the Level Up PDF? Does it contain more information or is it just that Level Up is expected to be less popular?

Haven't caught up on the whole thread yet, but are you thinking of this, by chance? (Video cued to appropriate scene. Skip to 33:51 if that doesn't work.)

My last session can be summed up by this drawing, which one of the players dashed off: All the players rolled on the carousing tables. When we put all their results together, we ended up with a story where the barbarian and fighter won huge amounts of money from a gambling house run by a...

Yes and no. The mining of disposable pop entertainment for cultural critique has become an exponentially more routine pastime in the 21st century than it was in the 20th. That sort of thing happened, but pop culture wasn't given the cultural weight that it has now.

Are we allowed to vote for one of the MtG settings featured in "Plane Shift"? I'd love to see a more thorough writeup of Ixalan, maybe a bestiary.

Nice! I'm bookmarking this for possible use in my Descent into Avernus campaign.

Not bland subclasses. Bland classes, because they'll be so heavily modified by portable subclasses (and, in your expanded version, prestige classes as well). I don't hate it as an idea for a game somewhere. I've just been explaining from the beginning why I feel that it works against some of...
