Just chopping a piece out of your much longer post here, obviously, to make a couple of observations: First, you're calling out d20 as a class&level based system which makes it hard to pick an choose abilities that let you build the character you want to play? Now granted, I'm not a d20 guy...

I think a HUGE factor is that people are generally lazy, or at least pressed for time. If I play D&D, and my group decides we're bored with fantasy and ready to try something different, then it's MUCH easier to jump to another d20-based game. We can pick it up and jump right in, comfortable...

Exactly what I'm doing. PCs started in Daggerford before heading north to Nightstone. After clearing that area (NS and Dripping Caves) they'll need to get to Goldenfields on foot (no Xephyros for us) so around Ardeep one way or the other to hit up Phylund Lodge or Harpshield Castle for the XP...

In my case, we play very casually - not rule-wise, but attention span. Lots of joking around as we drink a few beers, so very slow progress. My players have cleared Nightstone, befriending the remaining guards in the process. Smart play, they closed the drawbridge and defeat the goblins and...

Thanks - I'm certainly willing to give it a shot, if it's a matter of swapping out the text in an example script. I'll look more closely at what you have on github and go from there. I know where to find you if I have questions!

So, a "Scripting for Idiots" question: I have a player running a Wizard with a custom tradition (a tweaked version of this: https://dnd-5e-homebrew.tumblr.com/post/135504625944/school-of-animation-wizard-by-oraln Given I have zero experience with scripting, can you give me any guidance on how to...

I'll just namedrop The Shannara Chronicles here, then. Not...good, but not horrible either, for a TV budget.

No worries - I just wanted to check to see if I was missing it on an optional page. I'm on the current v12.93 (printer-friendly). If it shows up in a future update, great. If it never makes the cut... Well, such is life. In any case, thanks again for a phenomenal product!

Quick question - maybe I'm just missing it. Is there a way to add more than the 5 default lines to the Attacks box on the first page, or turn on another sheet with more on it? Between a few weapons and cantrips, I find I run out of space really fast and it would be nice to have a spot for...

I'm with the group that agrees the explosion just doesn't happen. I'd look at it as the Antimagic Field being the perfect tool/environment specifically to allow you to break a Staff of the Magi safely. Cast spell, break staff inside, which neutralizes the blast since the staff now isn't...

Indeed it is, and that's why the OP asked here, I'd say. :D

It's great to see this coming to life again! I'm very much looking forward to the Volo's document as well. While I can certainly see the value of the modifications you made in some cases, there are sure to be people who will want to run things by the book.

Oh my God, Night's Dark Terror could be an amazing product as it's more a mini-campaign than a simple module. They could use it to not only update the adventure itself, but a larger hardback could also update the Karameikos Gazetteer as a starting point for 5E Mystara, much as SCAG brings the...

For me, the reprinted content and extras will be just as interesting as the 5e content, really. The conversion part is relatively simple, plus B2 was already done for the Next playtest phase. Now that said, I like the idea of B1/2 combined in one hardback as an homage to the start of the hobby...

Uh, he said right in his post that it's NOT the pic from the screen, but similar and posted that for reference.

For myself, I'm interested to see these "official" variations, especially the one for beginners. I'll drop a few bucks on Amazon to see what they came up with, at the same time hoping to see PDFs show up on the WotC site alongside the other official sheets in case we want to print more ourselves.

I'm pretty happy with what I'm seeing so far, spells and monsters easy to search, sort and read. I completely agree with this though - I was very surprised to see that things weren't cross-linked throughout the compendium. Having to go back to the index page and drill back down to find things...

It never ceases to amaze me how people get all hot and bothered about having to make an account to use something online. It's 2017, you ALWAYS have to, and your information is all over the internet already, no matter what you think. <sigh>

It's nice to see that at least someone understands how things work in the real world. They've already told us <i>how</i> the cost structure works, and very likely, already revealed as much as they are allowed to at this point. Once they can tell us what that pricing will be, then they will do...

Good session last time - as noted, we're just starting Nightstone. The party entered the town and went right up into the gatehouse towers to check things out, without alerting the worgs. Sniping from up there they killed them and the initial handful of goblins attracted by the sounds of combat...
