    D&D 5E (2014) Purple Dragon Knight = Warlord?

    The PDK grants allies attacks.. when he action surges, so once a short rest.... and only at 10th level or higher

    D&D 5E (2014) Purple Dragon Knight = Warlord?

    Honestly which feels more like a warlord from 4e. A) a Battlemaster with Manuvering strike, commander Strike, Rally and inspiring leader feat. You get more tactical options that grow and a decent form of "healing" via in combat and out of combat temp hp. Multiple uses of these tactics per...

    D&D 5E (2014) Purple Dragon Knight = Warlord?

    My thoughts exactly, but only getting to take martial adept once ruins the effect. You get to take commander strike and rally as your manuevers, but only get to use one of them between a short rest.... not enough uses to make it work well. shame you can't multiclass in your own class....

    I'm looking for a module to run for my group's annual halloween adventure. Should be around 7th level. Last year I ran Ravenloft for them in 5e, and it was a blast. any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly welcomed. Thank you.

    D&D 5E (2014) 5e - domains and specialty priests

    I've always loved the specialty priest concept from 2e, particularly its restrictions and customization that allowed a priest to feel more connected to their dogma. I see alot of potential in the domain system to recreate that feel, though I'm feeling a bit limited by the borader choices. For...

    D&D 5E (2014) Why does 5E SUCK?

    Because there are plenty of charatcer types that require both being the leader of a party or society or men in general and the combat leader. Any general or heroic fighter of old was often the charismatic leader or rallier of people. Are you suggesting that if I want to be a weapon combat...

    D&D 5E (2014) Why does 5E SUCK?

    1)I hate that there is no ogl. In a game, where the advice is, "we went light on rules, so you make make stuf up" not having a OGL is a cardinal sin. It's the viable expression of that "it's ok to make stuff up". 2)I have to second the failure that is cleric domains. 2nd edition specialty...

    D&D 5E (2014) Would you change a monster's hit points mid-fight?

    Of course I do. I honestly think it is the DMs resposnibility to do so as the situation fits. This notion that once I've created a monster or encounter, it is set in stone is disconcerting to say the least. My job is to help faciliate the narrative and the enjoyment of my players and me. Letting...

    D&D 5E (2014) Video Game Worlds You Wish Were D&D 5E Settings

    Norrath. Lots of good memories there, even if i look back and think about the actual gameplay we did for 5 years and thought it was amazing(" you mean we sit and camp here and one dude brings monsters to us like items from a buffet, rinse repeat?") It's a pretty generic world, complete with...

    BLUE ROSE Returns, Championing Diversity & Inclusiveness

    This! My wife's half orc barbarian has the flaw hopeless romantic. It has feuled a lot of our social, poltical and romantic relationships, and inspiration has been the driver. Alot of this should be narrative game play. Crunchy rules should be used to define things that have clearer delineated...

    D&D 5E (2014) What does 5E NEED

    Options. They have given us a wonderful system that has just the right amount of moving parts and interesting choice points. Each of those points just need more options. No rules changes just filling in the lack of choices a little. And AP paths. The 2 book hardback doesn't work. Paizo has...

    PATHFINDER UNCHAINED at GAMA?

    Could not agree more! The one thing that has kept me excited about 5e is the promise that the system options will expand. I don't want the bloat we have seen in other ramp ups, like pf and 4e but if they just had maybe 20 or so more sublasses divided amongst the classes and we would be good for...

    D&D 5E (2014) Do you feel like the "Sorcerer" is really lacking in options?

    Yes they are definately lacking. Look at PF sorcerer. Considering Sorcerer is supposed to be in your blood, you could make a reasonable case for all the major monster types to have "corrupted" mortal blood with unique abilities. Think if we got an elemental, fey(though i guess this could be...

    D&D 5E (2014) Looking for Turn Undead alternate rule

    Personally, I like 2 options presented here mix together. I'd go with a concentration based radius from the cleric that deals X radiant damage every round to undead, and all undead in the radius are at disadvantage to attack rolls. Instead of the typically D&D/pathfinder, blast of channelled...

    ELEMENTAL EVIL Player's Companion - FREE!

    The best thing to do would be to emulate 2e specialty priests. Since spells in 5e don't really distinquish between divine and arcane, they just are Spells, and appear on certain lists, I would simply make spell lists for each deity or domain. Or just say they can swap them out for their domain...

    ELEMENTAL EVIL Player's Companion - FREE!

    Like what I see. But would love to see some subclasses. Maybe we don't because they want to have a better handle on what is working and what isn't before they begin issuing more subclasses(i.e. the purpose of those surveys). Still it seems a waste not to have some obvious tie ins, especially in...

    [UPDATED] What's Paizo's "Big News"?

    Both of them having big news might mean WoTC has big news, in the form of an OGL.
