    D&D 5E (2014) Mike Mearls did an interview for Escapist Magazine and reveals PHB classes, races, and much more

    All well said, however I am concerned about the Forgotten Realms exposure. Neither I nor my gaming group is fond of realms. I hope to not be too much exposure and I really hope to be differents approaches from a more general setting or a more to my liking. I don't want to go constantly "meh"...

    D&D 5E (2014) Human racial bonus in 5E

    I thought the replacement was the extra feat that a human can get at 1st lvl

    D&D 5E (2014) 30/5 D&D Alumni Archives: Beyond Feudalism - Experimental Genres

    And here is an article, probably the first of a new series of articles, that i found it interesting to appear at the WotC site. http://www.wizards.com/DnD/Article.aspx?x=dnd/4alum/20140530 It discusses about the genres beyond Feudal Fantasy: Pulp (Isle of Dread - Eberron), Horror (Ravenloft)...

    D&D 5E (2014) Things that probably won't happen, but man would it be cool if they did!

    As many said: Planescape campaign setting and adventures. Not just a shot and go but a deep and profound work equiveland to the quality of Zeb Cook and the vision of Diterlizzi.

    D&D 5E (2014) Weapon and Spell Speed Factor Module

    Although i might i agree with the most of the things you say i think you miss the point here. The reintroduction of this rule has not much to do with the realism as much with the game style and the tactics that this rule made available and necessary during 2nde. It has to do with a nostalgia...

    D&D 5E (2014) L&L Basic Dungeons & Dragons

    This strategy have many resemblances with that of MMOs. Right now the vast majority of the MMOs offer their game for free in order to attract as many people as they can. When they are there they offer em many big and little things that will make the gaming experiance more colorful, more...

    D&D 5E (2014) Weapon and Spell Speed Factor Module

    Although I don't use any electronic aids during my sessions I could see an application where each round every player clicks his modified iniative roll and then the dm gets his iniative lists.

    D&D 5E (2014) 5E and Sense of Accomplishment

    I am a person that I like the 3rd edition combat but the 4th's edition bore me to death. I would like to paraphrase a bit the original poster with a similar question: Now that the combats are quicker does one get the sense of accomplishment after the encounters?

    D&D 5E (2014) Weapon and Spell Speed Factor Module

    I wasn't sure that's the reason I had not mention it in the original post. The more I think about it i come closer to the impression that having every round an iniative with the declaration of the players action is something that suits to 5th edition. At least i think it fits more than 3rd or...

    D&D 5E (2014) Weapon and Spell Speed Factor Module

    Mike Mearls in a yesterday's tweet: Weapon and Spell Speed Factor is one of my favorite features of the 2nd edition. The above tweet rekindled my hopes to see it again as a module in the 5th edition. Here is an Ad hoc module imitating the 2nd edition weapon speed factor and spell speed...

    D&D 5E (2014) Art in 5e...?

    Yes indeed about the shape, and since we howthe spines of the books look like (red/black) then it will a break to the image if the latter wraps around the covers. As for "dead space" I actually like it, especially for PH. It adds to the atmosphere. I would prefer it than the overcrowded...

    D&D 5E (2014) Art in 5e...?

    Am I the only one who thinks that the cropping of PH is just not good? I think the uncropped version is more understanable and tells better the story of the scene that the zoom in of the fire gian the female cleric/wizard. Also in the cropped version you cannot discern clearly the body of the...

    Planescape could be done by Kobold Press too. I remember a couple of articles from zeb cook in their magazine.

    D&D 5E (2014) Art in 5e...?

    I agree with you regarding the art of 2e. One difference from the 2e books is that now the scenes are way more epic and high lvl than the old ones.
