    D&D General Dave Arneson: Is He Underrated, or Overrated?

    yes indeed and dice in war games were involved in ancient greco-roman eras... its not actually that much of a jump to tie more story into a war game.

    Personality and alignment are likely in conflict with those instincts you mention twice (Which is the foundation of someone wanting to allow checks to fight things like those limits I suppose)

    And the memories are often suppressed (and so can be recovered). And to an extent real life personalities can be massively altered but it likely will involve some memory loss too and may be quite permanent. ( brain impairment of that sort is tricky. )

    What is the "nature of the form" of a t-rex... its bipedal with tiny front legs. It does not say nature of the beast.

    It retains any action not limited by speech or hands though and does that include the application of proficiencies? is nowehere mentioned. I think personality and alignment without the foundational memories is meaningless (but its magic and logic is kind of an out the window thing LOL). So can I...

    . It retains its alignment and personality does not necessarily say does not retain memories too particularly those emotional ones related to alignment and personality. It does not say you become new beast without any experience etc. The text indicating the target assumes the hit points of its...

    lol yeh they are all elf elites and everyone of them won initiative? or maybe not. Or I misty stepped as a bonus action too and they are still at 30 foot range.. I started to say well if we are going humanoids maybe Drow? a Shadowblade is going drip with mobility with a 60 foot teleport though...

    they are mighty fast? the t-rex is 50 feet move speed ... but regardless I am at 90 feet as I cast the spell (and moved why stand close? does that make sense?). If we have initiative another caster (because why play a martial?) can also put out all kinds of things like a web spell into play...

    We are assuming it is transforming a person and making changes on that root... Maxperson is assuming (or saying the spell says) we start with a tabla raza base and adding on the personality and alignment of the subject... (since those were called out explicitly)

    You are assuming I was talking about your saves to act normal idea? I wasn't?

    D&D 5E (2014) The Decrease in Desire for Magic in D&D

    Sounds like a rare exception and an interesting story line to me... but in general it enhances the spell for combat purposes not really limits much and actually very handy to simultaneously subtract an attacker from the enemy camp and simultaneously add one for your benefit (if not exactly on...
