    Poll: Heavily Non-Canon Star Wars

    Yeah it's just my reading comprehension. I saw STRPG and my brain read 'SWRPG'. I'd like to blame my stroke, but honestly I've done it before.

    Poll: Heavily Non-Canon Star Wars

    That's it. I guess my typing isn't the only thing suffering, is it?

    Poll: Heavily Non-Canon Star Wars

    I had a stroke and missed this last post. Did you mean WEG, or do I need to head to ebay?

    D&D 5E (2014) Have a new player that I will be DMing, got some questions.

    IMO, if they're new to the game, best not to complicate right away. Gives them time to get used to the rules, and room to grow if they want. If you're going over rules at this with a player, probably, yes. Harder. I would start a new player a level 1 (or 3, as most of my games have been. BUT...

    D&D General Help Me with My Pathological Aversion to Third Party D&D Products

    Hidden Oddities: A Witch's Primer is a really well thought out book, containing a class, spells, options, subclasses, lore, and new subclasses for the PHB classes related to Witches. It's not just a re-skin of another class, but its own full-fledged addition to the roster, and still my favorite...

    Kobo sucks. Scammed me once, I won't fall for it again.

    Conveying Setting Information

    I run in Tal'Dorei from Critical Role. I have a blurb with my changes, but in game I use Bold Italics (which I can no longer seem to use here) for terms players should look up.

    How do you curate your online groups as a DM?

    I have a recruit thread in roll20 for each game. In it, I lay out the game, what I'm seeking in a player, and the guidelines for making characters. I also ask my current players to weigh in. Any proposal that follows the guides OR offers some thought on why they didn't, gets a reply, usually...

    D&D General How Long Have You Gamed With Your Current Group

    One of my players has been with me since 2000. He is the the only one and we played all sorts of things as the players around us have come and gone.

    D&D General How long has your Current Group gamed together?

    I have been running my circus campaign for just over five years. Two of the sessions began February 2019. One of the sessions began a year later. I am also running a sort of bespoke World of Darkness game in which one of my players I have been gaming with for over 20 years, though not always the...

    D&D General Recommendations? Voice-to-Text for Roll20

    I'm recovering from and stroke a looking to get back into my games. They're all text-based, and will remain so as long as possible. I have players who won't do voice, so that's not an option, but my typing hasn't returned to the level it was. Anyone have experience with Voice-to-Text and...

    D&D 5E (2024) You're not planning on getting 2024 D&D? Why is that?

    I chose "Perfectly Happy" even though it didn't include 5e in it. I haven't looked at a new hotness, and have no opinion (though some folks I tend to agree with have voiced some issues). I'm just satisfied with what we've built over the last five years. Don't need new books.

    D&D 5E (2014) So, I kind of want to stay with 2014 rules. What are my longterm options?

    I Don't plan to change to the new rules and don't see an issue. My games are on a brief break - on account of the real world giving me a stroke - but I've had no interest in the 2024 hullabaloo, and my players haven't shown any either. Why should it be any fuss at all, sticking with our current...
