I voted "none" since I don't really know MtG settings, and don't have a vested interest in the lore or learning it. However, I do like those Planeshift docs quite a bit. So... I wouldn't mind seeing a single book providing an quick introduction of the greater MtG multiverse, its lore, workings...

We tracked buckles like we tracked ammo in our 3e/PF games. Ah, the glory days!

It's only one data point but.... A few days ago, we finally saw the first case in my county. The next day, several more were identified. All are grocery store workers.

Yep. And IHME is always updating their models and inputs, so we'll see. Like I said: it'll be "interesting" to see the interplay of science and politics in this. I just wish it wasn't so blasted disruptive. I'm beyond ready for it to be done. 😣🤞

I, and all my eyes, thank you!

IHME at U.Washington has updated their projections. They have COVID-19 deaths in the US overall peaking on APR 16, and then falling to <1 per day by mid June, with a cumulative 82k deaths or so (with huge error bars, of course). (The big caveat, btw, is that they consistently refer to this...

And to this day, I'm still wondering what happened to the ranger's pants.

I agree. The way spell concentration is described interacting with other actions makes me think it's more like a physical [insert arcano-babble here] overload limit on the caster's "mana gland" rather, than genuine mental effort. If it comes up (and only if it comes up), I think the suggestion...

For years now Fifth's been among us, With plant monsters for deserts, caves, jungles and tundras. But where, be it told, Is that most ghostly of mold? Where in 5e's Phantom Fungus??

Thanks for all the advice, and for the XGtE hints. Very helpful stuff for a newbie 5e GM! The situation is this: Before the scene (a banquet), an enemy NPC privately conjures a bunch of little elementals. She instructs them to remain hidden until a particular cue (a bell to start the meal)...

Ah, okay! I'm not very familiar with XGtE (It's on my to-buy list.), so I wasn't aware of a rule like that. I'll check it out. Thanks for the tip!

Is there a RAW way to tell if a caster is concentrating on a spell? I've just assumed an Insight or Arcana check or something, but can't find a specific rule for it. A few situations to illustrate: PCs try to discern if a sketchy NPC is concentrating on a charm or scry or something during a...

In my few 5e games, parties have been 3 or 4 PCs, with a limited support crew among them, mainly familiars. So I put "4,5,6".

Hmmm. I guess that's asbestos could be expected, all things considered.

I noticed a distinct attitude shift out here in rural west Texas when the president announced the first "15 days" initiative or whatever it was in mid March. A lot of folks stopped the "overreaction" or "hoax" nonsense, and started taking the pandemic more seriously. Of course, the political...
