    D&D General MtG Adventures in the Forgotten Realms Spoiler Thread

    Easy and intuitive until you hit a corner case, then you need to consult the 252 page rules document: https://magic.wizards.com/en/game-info/gameplay/rules-and-formats/rules

    D&D General MtG Adventures in the Forgotten Realms Spoiler Thread

    Don't sorceries go to the discard pile after they're cast? If you equip it as a sorcery wouldn't it be discarded then? 🤯 The number of keywords and jargon to learn is prolly why I'll never play Magic

    D&D General MtG Adventures in the Forgotten Realms Spoiler Thread

    I've seen Magic played but never played How does that card work? You spent 2 mana (1 white) and it's just there? And another 3 mana to actually equip it as a sorcery, which moves that card to the discard pile Why not just require 5 mana?

    Don't do Magic Unlikely I'll buy a pack But it'd be neat to use some of these as a deck of random encounters. Especially the monsters and locations that start with "You..."

    D&D 5E (2014) Any good alternatives to "How do you want to do this"?

    Fond of "describe the deathblow" For alliteration Others are: How do you kill it? Give me the coup de grace Finish Them! Strike them down

    TSR TSR3 Blames Widespread Pushback On WotC

    Hilarious As if WizCo would pay any attention to an OSR start-up TSR3 is so far beneath Wizards they're not worth a retweet Conspiring to organize a pushback? HA! Prolly easier for Ernie to believe in some vast conspiracy than the idea he's a bigot that's hurting people

    TSR Companies & Freelancers Distance Themselves From The New TSR

    Prolly needs to be "product of their time and place Not just when but where Ernie is a product of the 1970s smalltown midwest Did we really expect someone raised by Gary "random harlot table" Gygax to be enlightened n work?

    TSR Companies & Freelancers Distance Themselves From The New TSR

    "I just want to play games, leave your politics at the door" is the same policy as "don't ask, don't tell" It's telling queer people you will only accept them if they're in the closet That them just existing is political You can't say that anyone is welcome at their table and then say people...

    D&D 5E (2014) Thoughts on Improving Martials

    There's the Eldritch Knight, the Battle Master, and the Paladin. Plus adding feats that grant additional spells or a level dip into a spellcasting class We don't four or five new classes just to provide every conceivable option with a complex and simple version. We don't need a complex rogue and...

    D&D 5E (2014) Thoughts on Improving Martials

    They exist People who like the idea of spellcaters but hate complexity also exist. And people who hate complexity but the party needs a healer Should we make the wizard and cleric much, much simpler then?

    D&D 5E (2014) Thoughts on Improving Martials

    Isn't the solution then NOT to ban feats and to allow characters to use the options in the book? If you tie someone's hands behind their back you can't whine about them being unable to juggle If the fighter's player feels like their only option is to stand in melee and hit a target in the face...

    D&D 5E (2014) Thoughts on Improving Martials

    The first problem isn't a real problem. It's an internet problem. It exist only on chat threads Far and away the most popular class is the fighter. The simplest martial. With the rogue next. And the cleric and wizard last of the base four. In the secondary classes, ranger and barbarian are at...

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D 'frequently asked' questions?

    Both have their uses But two pages of scripted dialogue is maybe three or four minutes on a stream And there's a mess you can do with two extra pages in a book

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D 'frequently asked' questions?

    Which is easier? Saying "here, read these two pages of solid then pass the book to the person next to you" Or saying "here's a link. Watch five minutes of this stream"

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D 'frequently asked' questions?

    That's nice Think most people will google something before dumping $170 Did you and yours know about the game beforehand or walk in completely blind? How good a job did the books do for ya'll?

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D 'frequently asked' questions?

    That leads to good questions for Morus "Do I count as my own ally?" "Can I touch myself?" "Can I target myself?"

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D 'frequently asked' questions?

    That's less important Think most people coming into the game will have seen one or two streamed games and have an idea of what is DnD And those descriptions weren't very useful. You already needed to buy a $50 book to read them
