    D&D 5E (2014) Unconscious/Dead Creatures' Space

    Tiny bodies would be insignificant until you had some quantity of them. More than 2 small, or a single medium, would allow the space to be navigable, but that is what makes difficult terrain, you have to watch your step. Once the space is fully covered, then possibly imposing disadvantage. Or...

    D&D 5E (2014) Targetting total cover.

    The target might not see the attacker, but could possibly see the arrows incoming, and therefore should be able to react. I would definitely impose disadvantage to the attack, along with other adjustments. YMMV

    D&D 5E (2014) Hoard of the Dragon Queen question. (spoilers)

    A flu scroll? Oh, I get it. Instead of crashing with the castle, they all came down with the flu. :p;)

    D&D 5E (2014) Early Release D&D stores in Mass?

    Use the WotC site to find stores running Encounters. At least those store are tuned into D&D to some extent. To be fair, we only just got solicited this week for Rage of Demons. I already had placed my orders weeks (months?) ago, but I am a D&D geek.

    D&D 5E (2014) Difference between critical hits and automatic hits.

    An assassin crits when he scores a hit on a surprised foe. He must hit first.

    D&D 5E (2014) Auto Hits & Critical Hits

    In the Rogue's Assassinate paragraph, it states It isn't a critical until you hit him.

    D&D 5E (2014) silver standard

    Maybe it is causative, maybe it's a byproduct, but it more than coincidence that dragons and magic exist on worlds where so much gold exist.

    D&D 5E (2014) Counterspell

    Sometimes it's easy to tell. Like when the hobgoblin wizard pulls out the bit of fur and the amber rod. But difficult to tell if he has pulled out the gum arabic and an eyelash instead of the bit of sulfer and the bat guano. Very difficult if he is just flicking his magic wand (unless it is a...

    D&D 5E (2014) Spellprepared/known for multiclassed spellcaster

    I think what the multiclassing rules would allow is for the Wizard/Cleric to cast his prepared first-level cleric spells in a higher slot. edit: Ninja'd

    D&D 5E (2014) Character Options

    Of course, this character would still be at least 1 level away from getting his first ability score increase/feat, if that level was in the 3rd-level class

    Yes, they come in random assortment boxes, except the special gargantuan case-incentive figure.

    D&D 5E (2014) Wizards not taking Gencon seriously?

    Wizards has had a decreasing presence at GenCon for years, ever since Hasbro bought them.

    D&D 5E (2014) So what happened at GenCon with relation to 5th edition?

    They ran some preview games of the upcoming adventure, Out of the Abyss. Wizards of the Coast did not have a booth nor have anyone selling or displaying D&D. Wizkids did not have a booth nor have anyone displaying the upcoming Rage of Demons D&D miniatures. Mike Mearls did an interview wherein...

    D&D 5E (2014) transporting a large, unwilling creature

    What's wrong with a cage on a wagon, like the old circus or prison wagons? Of course a strong muzzle would also be needed. Feeding time would be an adventure

    RAGE OF DEMONS Minis From WizKids

    WizKids/Paizo did a Gargantuan Green Dragon as a case incentive figure for the Pathfinder Legends of Golarian set. It is on a 4-inch round base.

    RAGE OF DEMONS Minis From WizKids

    I believe WizKids did not have a booth at GenCon, and neither did Wizards. I could find no GenCon preview of these minis.

    Mike Mearls on stuff... (Tome Show interview from GenCon)

    Thank you, Merric. Exactly what I was looking for (the summary, that is. I wish Mike would have had an announcement or two)

    D&D 5E (2014) About Rolling for Ability Scores

    I believe that was from Original, and possibly Holmes Basic. And it was the only way, no options provided (officially)
