"Hey, Amethyst Dragons. We're the Purple Dragon Knights. Y'all are purple dragons. Wanna team up? It'll be so cool!" 😝

For the record, the Purple Dragons are the national army of Cormyr, with the Purple Dragon Knights being the officers. They got their name from Thauglor, an ancient black dragon whose scales were more violet than black. Thauglor once ruled over the area that became Cormyr. While the amethyst...

I'm tempted to as well ... although I'd make it so they can get their names back again in short order - either by letting them find the satyr again or by doing a deed for the satyr's fey overlord or whatever.

And they are also available as part of the digital only preorder bundle!

I see a DDB staff member has also confirmed in that thread that the DLCs are included in the digital only preorder bundle as well. I'll be going with that since I want to get the alt covers for these.

I think this art style began with Dragon Age Inquisition (e.g. Solas' murals). I haven't played Veilguard yet, but I'm glad to hear it's still around in the latest game too.

I expect these will be available for purchase separately later on. I was told that would be the case for the bonus maps and things that they were offering as part of the digital bundle for Dragon Delves, for instance.

@GarrettKP so the Harper background gets a bunch of stuff instead of an origin feat?

Yes, Valindra is a lich with a glamer that makes her look like she did when she was alive.

Sold! I like this cover art soooo much better than the standard covers.

Are the graphics in Fallout 3 really noticeably worse than in Fallout 4? They don't look all that bad in the Steam previews. I've never played the original Fallout games and am not fond of turn-based games, so that's fine.

Fallout 3 GOTY Edition is currently on sale on Steam for only NZ$12. Still reckon I should wait?

Yes! This: "My hope is that surrounding the group myself with players who actively want to participate and learn the system might be what's needed."

OK. I’m not familiar with the Oriental Adventures ruleset, but I read the Empires trilogy back in the day. The second one, Dragonwall, was primarily set in Shou Lung and involved a Genghis Khan like character invading across the fantasy Great Wall of China. Meanwhile, nothing screams “written...

That’s a new one for me! I’ve always equated Baldur’s Gate with London. Cormyr is more fantasy medieval France to me.

So not really “starting over” so much as adding new players to the existing group? i know it’ll be awkward since your wife is an active gamer too, but I strongly recommend actually starting fresh with a wholly new group. Don’t include any of the existing group. You need a clean break, and you...

I was under the impression that Kara-Tur was a more general fantasy Far East, with fantasy analogues for China (Shou Lung, T’u Lung), Tibet (Tabot), the Stans (Hordelands), Korea (Koryo), Japan (Kozakura, Wa), and various southeast Asian countries (Malatra). Also, the Shou are one of the FR...

Yes, except that it ends at the end of your next turn if you do nothing to extend it. So if you want to play a "rage mage" and you want to switch out of your rage to cast a spell, then you have to wait two rounds before you can do so. I think that's probably a fair trade-off in my opinion.

You previously posted this on July 4th. Is there a reason you've posted it again?
