..... Snarf I'm now going to have to get at least a month of HBO max and I blame you. More seriously I really enjoyed the DCAU. I was born in '92 so a lot of the tv series (batman, batman unlimited, justice league, etc) were a decent part of my viewing staples when I was growing up. The most...

So I do like the concept of not having an attack roll just damage but I'm not sure 5e is the system for it. So the big problem is that 5e is really not built to deal with Damage Reduction (DR) very well. (Note: I've tried introducing DR to my games before so I do have some actual play...

So in terms of Realism and Verisimilitude I thinks it more a matter of where you (and your group) draw the line then a hard yes or no. We live in the real world. We all understand (to varying degrees) how it works. I know that most people can pick up a rock but not a car. I know that falling...

So the short answer is in your game creating Undead is as evil/neutral/good as you want. If your player want's to play a Necromancer and not be stoned to death then probably don't treat it as evil. In broader terms I generally default to creating undead as an evil act for a few reasons. 1) The...

So I will preface this by saying I really enjoy critical role, just as I really enjoy a lot of streaming D&D games. I have also stolen ideas, stories, and parts of my GMing style from both it and other games I have seen streamed. In many ways watching Critical Role is just watching a bunch of...

The king's man was... Bad. Worse then I expected by a fair degree. The story zig-zags between deadly serious and silly. I also felt that the pacing of the plot felt really odd at points. Maybe because it's meant to take place over the entirity of WW1 and I was never sure how long it was between...

I'm not terribly surprised honestly. Brandon Sanderson is definitively the most famous and popular fantasy author on the market now and has been for a while. At this point I think you could make a fairly good argument for him being the most popular author alive.

So I lurk on these forums more than I post but I will say the moderation is typically on point. Sometimes it's a little more heavy handed then I would personally like, sometimes things that I would expect to get moderated pass without comment. Overall though it's usually pretty good. For the...

So in person I never really needed to. I don't have a huge collection of mini's so I never had anything to hide. For bosses and big characters I had a little whiteboard token I made that I would just write the name on. For everything else it was a bag of monsters from a Lord of the Rings Risk...

That's fair and if it was merely a case of people backing with different assumptions about how it was distributed I think I (and many other people) would be a lot more ok with the situation. At that point i would have said they could have been more clear but not put them at fault. I think the...

I would say a reasonable assumption for someone backing the kickstarter, considering how CR distributes all their other shows, is that they were going to distribute it on their youtube channel or via twitch, which if they hadn't gotten the Amazon deal they almost certainly would have. A not...

So frankly this is kinda crappy and I understand anyone who backed and is now pissed. To lay it out. Fans back the kick starter enough to get 10 episodes. At this point their is an implicit promise that if the series gets made they can access it even if there is not an explicit one. Amazon...

So this seems to be the crux of the argument. Me (and most of the other people who are arguing about this) are saying that the only valid way to compare a reroll vs Disadvantage is to include the results where you do not actually cast the spell. The only valid comparison of a reroll vs...

So the two things being compared would be SB vs a theoretical spell that acts in the same manner except that instead of a reroll you can use it to cause the target to roll with disadvantage, meaning you have to decide before the initial roll. Assuming a flat roll that already didn't have...

Perfectly fair. Im in about the same boat that I'll let it get used and just warn players i reserve the right to ban/modify it as i feel necessary.

So lets take a thought experiment to compare SB to disadvantage. Your dm rolls 2 dice and hides the values. 1 is a success 1 is a failure. The dm allows you to choose which one they use. You have SB and a 1st level spell that as a reaction you can cause the target to receive disadvantage on a...

Welcome. Also I'm perfectly willing to say I might be wrong. I haven't played with the spell and probably won't for a long time (combination of me being the main DM and my group currently testing out other systems) so everything I say on it is pure speculation. I really think that this question...
