    D&D 5E (2014) HOUSE-RULE: Options for Two-Weapon Fighting

    Nick solved this issue. Just adopt it for your 2014 game.

    Spoilers Cobra Kai Final Episodes

    I love that in this alternate universe, my home is somehow the center of the world. It's absurd. They drove down most of the streets within a mile of where I live, showing places we have gone to many times, as if they were famous places when really only people who live here or grew up here would...

    I can usually start and finish a complete game of Marvel Snap during a commercial break.

    D&D General Session Zero and Nobody Chose a Spellcaster

    They could use a Detect Magic in there somewhere.

    Basic D&D, Holmes Edition - a review

    Me! This was my first edition. I still have my very worn copy. My brother and I consumed that thing in 1978 or 1979. We did not find it terrible rules or convoluted.

    D&D 5E (2024) Wild Magic Sorcerer is Best Sorcerer Subclass

    It's stuff you won't use on most adventuring days. Great for a Wizard, but pretty bad for a sorcerer with how limited their spells are. When they could be swapped out, those spells were routinely swapped out for more general use spells. Mind Sliver is fine. Calm Emotions is too rare to be one...

    It's a joke, in poor taste, but also inaccurate. None of these recent fires were in a forest. They were brush fires and not forest fires.

    I found this list interesting. What were the most streamed shows of 2024? “Bluey” - 55.62 billion minutes “Grey’s Anatomy” - 47.85 billion minutes “Family Guy” - 42.44 billion minutes “Bob’s Burgers” - 36.8 billion minutes “NCIS” - 35.91 billion minutes “Young Sheldon” - 32.08 billion minutes...

    D&D 5E (2024) Paladins can Smite on Ranged attacks (with thrown melee weapons) now!

    I'd love to see a well constructed Rogue/Paladin dagger thrower. Smiting and sneak attacking with throwing daggers would be awesome in my opinion.

    D&D Movie/TV Netflix Planning Forgotten Realms D&D TV Show With Stranger Things Producer

    Nobody cares about that anymore. Nerd titles have dominated the charts for over a decade now. Nerd names broke through that barrier long, long ago now. If it gets good buzz and is good, people will watch. If it doesn't, they won't. The name will not make or break anything. I mean, if "Battlestar...

    We have no evidence on this topic. Zero. Zero to do with a TV show. And he isn't even arguing about the name. He wasn't even commenting on the name. He's assuming the live action streaming show will fail, and claiming we have had many attempts at that when we've had zero. Bet on the name...

    The choice isn't "sycophant or not." You're starting out, with zero information, assuming the worst. And making claims like "we've had a few attempts at this" when we've had no attempts at this. That's not logical. Neutral would make sense. But going in assuming the worst? Not logical.

    Romanticy was popular but peaked and is now on the downswing, and book publishers have started to shift to somewhat more traditional fantasy in their announcements. This does not mean Netflix is up on their publication trends though, as it's a rather recent shift and Romanticy dominated for many...

    D&D 5E (2024) Paladins can Smite on Ranged attacks (with thrown melee weapons) now!

    It's a melee weapon being used to make a ranged attack. A melee attack and a ranged attack is not the same as a melee weapon and a ranged weapon. As the thrown description you posted says, it's still a melee weapon even if it is thrown.

    D&D 5E (2024) Paladins can Smite on Ranged attacks (with thrown melee weapons) now!

    So what would a build look like centered on a thrown weapon Paladin?

    D&D 5E (2014) Running a fishing skill check

    I'd run it as a skill challenge: Skill Challenge: The Great Catch Goal: The players must successfully catch a set number of fish (or a particularly legendary fish) before time runs out or resources deplete. DC: Use the standard formula of 9 + party proficiency bonus (adjust as needed for...

    I just hope they go live action. I won't watch animated stuff these days with very rare exception. Particularly not mature adult animated.

    They do it because they were under contract. It's been a total train wreck for them. 67% drop from season 1, which itself was no great success.
