    TSR 5 Fun Facts about the 1991 D&D Black Boxed Set

    Yes, I've never played or ran an AD&D game in which the characters didn't have their saves and their attacks (either THAC0 or attack table) on their sheets.

    D&D Adds Two New Books to 2025 Slate, Including New Eberron Book

    Yes, sounds accurate. I've personally never cared too much about both races (orcs and half-orcs) and I've always seen them as rather similar. I know that orcs are quite popular, so no complaints about their inclusion in the PHB. Plenty of other choices to pick from...

    D&D Adds Two New Books to 2025 Slate, Including New Eberron Book

    Their dwellings were described as "primitive". I don't know if the book has been reprinted, but the DDB version has been changed at some point.

    Do You Think Open Playtests Improve a Game's Development?

    I don't think that they really help development, per se. However, IMO, they are good "market research" and also also provide publicity and engagement.

    D&D General Are You There D&D? It's Me, J.R.R. Tol-KEEEEN!

    "J.R.R. Tolkien has become a sort of mountain, appearing in all subsequent fantasy in the way that Mt. Fuji appears so often in Japanese prints. Sometimes it’s big and up close. Sometimes it’s a shape on the horizon. Sometimes it’s not there at all, which means that the artist either has made a...

    It works fine now, thanks. Due to the glitches I was experiencing, I actually posted two versions of the same thread, sorry!

    There are several threads that are not accessible to me. Sometime it is the whole thread, sometime a page within it. I get the following message: Is it a problem on my end or some issue with the site?

    AD&D 1E Holy Symbol Spell Purpose?

    You can't just declare this like that. You first have to build an electrum basin over a period of 2d4 weeks for a cost of (1d6+1) x 1000 gp. Then you have to cast in sequence: vacancy, cacodemon and crystalbrittle and, only then, you have a percentage chance of successfully making the...

    D&D 5E (2024) Have You Pre-Ordered The 2024 MM?

    I pre-ordered the alternate cover (as with the PHB and the DMG) and I got the bundle on DDB. I still haven't done much with the 2024 rules except reading them, as the 2014 campaign I'm playing in is advancing at a glacial pace and I've hadn't had a chance to play or ran a one-shot with the new...

    D&D 5E (2024) DMG 2024: The Planes

    Hear, hear! The Astral Sea idea is interesting to me, but - at the end of the day - I prefer the Astral Plane to be something else, like it was described in the 1e Manual of the Planes. A plane of pure thought very much separated from the spelljamming "shipping lanes".

    WotC How much does Hasbro / WotC impact your feelings towards D&D?

    Back then, I knew little and cared nothing at all about TSR as a company and their dealings.

    D&D 5E (2024) DMG 2024: Is The Sandbox Campaign Dead?

    Yes. Although this can create awkward situations, I believe that it is a desirable behavior from the software, because the alternative gives the OP of a thread the "authority" to kick people out of a discussion. IMHO.
