    D&D 5E (2024) Here's The Covers of BOTH of November's Forgotten Realms Books

    A lich queen that looks like a lich. Adventurers that look like they are adventuring and not walking down the street to a bar or walking in a parade. The characters are all fine, and I think the BG3 characters look good. Jarlaxle lloks awful and the Lich Queen looks like she won a beauty...

    D&D 5E (2024) Here's The Covers of BOTH of November's Forgotten Realms Books

    The good thing about this book is Ed Greenwood is doing alot of the writing. I am now worried with the "Character point of view" that he was not as involved in writing as I thought. The art I can ignore. I'm REALLY hoping for alternate covers. This Lichqueen doesn't even look like the BG3...

    D&D 5E (2024) Here's The Covers of BOTH of November's Forgotten Realms Books

    That's the trend with the art of 5e 2024. Unfortunately. 5e 2024 is a great ruleset but my god the art is awful. Skillfully done I'm not going to lie. I lay alot of the blame on the current Art Director. Too bad she didn't leave for Daggerheart instead of Perkins and Crawford.

    D&D 5E (2024) Here's The Covers of BOTH of November's Forgotten Realms Books

    Great... Now I have to buy TWO of them because my Daughter is going to abscond with the Players guide with Karlach on the front. I'll literally never see the book when I need it. But I'm hoping for alternate covers because this art is cartoonishly bad.

    Diamond Distributors Asks Bankruptcy Court For Ownership of Publishers' Consignment Inventory [UPDATED]

    As many people are unfortunately finding out, the UCC Form seems to be able to Increase their priority in bankruptcy as well. There must be a strong inconvenience to this UCC. Because what I am reading is that mostly all small consigners don't bother. And for MArvel comics not to is insanity...

    Green Ronin Crowdfunding Legal Defense Fund In Fight Against Diamond Distrubutors

    I think this should be the case as well, creators deserve the money. But the pool can only support so much. ALOT of ttrpg players these days can't afford the cost of an $80 dollar book (Which I am willing to pay). The college kids I teach would be pooling money for this. I think the price is...

    Green Ronin Crowdfunding Legal Defense Fund In Fight Against Diamond Distrubutors

    I was under the impression that EACH item on consignment needed this form. So if you are publishing 60 titles a month you would have to fill out a UCC form for each title. IF my impression is correct that is indeed cost prohibitive. If that is not the case then it seems a silly thing to NOT...

    Green Ronin Crowdfunding Legal Defense Fund In Fight Against Diamond Distrubutors

    Diamond SAID they didn't. Diamonds lawyers would not go with them on a lie in court. All any of those publishers need to do is show their Form. But the form is very difficult to do. It would be a hired position alone to complete this paperwork. Its not a tax form. Every item on consignment...

    D&D 5E (2014) Can you retry a failed skill check? How long?

    There is something to a roll. Even for something like a lock pick. Players derive huge satisfaction from a good roll even if in my mind "the roll doesn't matter". Plus if they get the roll, on that impossible lock the first time, they are truly proving themselves legends in the fiction of the...

    Diamond Distributors Asks Bankruptcy Court For Ownership of Publishers' Consignment Inventory [UPDATED]

    Business Law is mind boggling. Tariffs Now THIS??? I think Disney and Warner Bros. Lawyers could stop this but they will probably only settle for themselves and leave the others in the dust. Oh man. This is a nightmare for TTRPG companies that aren't HASBRO. Almost everyone distributed...

    The comments were hillarious. Yeah I really didn't pay attention.

    D&D 5E (2014) Can you retry a failed skill check? How long?

    Thanks I missed this. I am running Flames of the Falcon for Greyhawk with 2024 rules and converting on the fly. I normally don't have a problem but this module trilogy is presented a bit weird.

    D&D 5E (2014) Can you retry a failed skill check? How long?

    LOL I always allowed the Take 10 for non timed tasks. I didn't even think about it for well I guess 14 years now. I decided with running a full 2024 campaign to check a rule on it. Didn't even occur to me!

    D&D 5E (2014) Can you retry a failed skill check? How long?

    I think the skill check is a good guide for if it can be done. I use the take 20 rule and make it take longer than a round. If you pass you amazingly did it in seconds. Its not the same as a minimum roll of 10 for a rogue. That applies to that amazing attempt. Some skills though you can't...

    Daggerheart Releases Another Round of Playtesting, Including Two New Classes

    I just bought Wheel of Time from Noble Knight Games for $85 dollars. It came down from 105. I'm shocked because that is made out of pure unobtainium. I traded all my Pathfinder games, Witcher RPG, and Fantasy Flight Star Wars games to get old Planescape things like Bloodwar which is made of...

    I absolutely can't stand the Art aesthetic of the 2024 D&D. Its skillfully done but its likr I'm seeing art of modern day LARPers playing a character.

    Dark Horse Reveals First Dungeons & Dragons Comic

    I don't think the comments have been negative. I'm a fat dude and when i see "adventurer" like the elf especially it looks wrong. these arent Larp characters, they should reflect the fiction better. As an overweight person that "elf" feels like pandering to fill in a box.
