    Level Up (A5E) Level Up's Downtime activities

    Exactly, because of how Kickstarter works, until it ends, you haven't paid for anything.

    Level Up (A5E) VTT support?

    Not a fan of this idea. In addition to the 5e system being incredibly plain, making it a module makes it feel very subordinate to 5e. As someone that has mainly used the PF2 system in Foundry, there's so much room for better. New system in the Foundry system list gets a LOT more eyes on Level Up...

    Level Up (A5E) How does 5.5e/6e impact Level Up?

    I know I'm really looking forward to Critical Role's new 3p Level Up book ;D I never said Level Up was anti-WotC, even if it were true pushing that would be a terrible marketing decision, but I am intensely anti-WotC and Level Up is a godsend to play with friends who enjoy 5e without supporting...

    Level Up (A5E) VTT support?

    So to my knowledge Talespire doesn't have any actual system integration yet, though it is planned. I was really excited for Talespire until Foundry dropped out of nowhere and took everything by storm. Also WOW Maptool, I thought that was only still relevant to 4e enthusiasts.

    Level Up (A5E) Level Up Class Preview: Adept

    Personally I went to a scenatio of having Advantage on your next Attack and wanting to make the most of it. 5e Monk suffered a lot for its Bonus Damage as a non-Fighter Melee Class requiring a separate attack roll AND resource usage. I'm very much in favor of giving them alternatives that don't...

    Level Up (A5E) Plan your pledge tiers...

    I'm also curious, assuming it'll be full rules available for complete character creation and no tiered D&D Beyond nonsense, but wondering if it'll be a static program akin to Lancer's Comp/Con or an online tool accessible through the internet like Pathbuilder.

    Level Up (A5E) Funded we still have to wait for the pdf's

    To answer the "Why not PDFs now though?" part of the question, you aren't charged until the KS ends, so they can't do that otherwise I could be like "Yeah you know I want that Marshal Tier" get my pdfs and then "lol never mind k bye~". Really does make this last stretch the hardest part of the...

    Level Up (A5E) How does 5.5e/6e impact Level Up?

    Honestly sounds to me like 5e isn't the game for you either. 5e is still a crunch based system, shallow though it may be. I'd definitely suggest looking into narrative based games that might be more in line with your preferred gaming experience.

    Level Up (A5E) What class are YOU most excited to play?

    Are you at liberty to talk about Feat structure? Is it the same as o5e where you only get a few, competing with ASIs?

    Level Up (A5E) 8 days to go....

    Damn, I'd thought you'd hit all stretch goals in under 24 hours but forgot they're in Pounds not Dollars xD still, really good pace it seems like :D

    Level Up (A5E) How does 5.5e/6e impact Level Up?

    My understanding of events was that he worked as 'liason' with WotC for Baldur's Gate 3, which allowed WotC to say without technically lying "Mike Mearls is not on the D&D team and hasn't been for some time" only for him to return to the D&D team full time once that assignment, and PR statement...

    Level Up (A5E) How does 5.5e/6e impact Level Up?

    I wanna note that like. Light narrative games are great. Jank games can be really fun. 5e being a badly designed system by the most well known TTRPG brand in the world is, in a vacuum, disappointing but whatever. My vitriol comes from the horrifying regressive culture of WotC, their treatment of...

    Level Up (A5E) Plan your pledge tiers...

    Oh that Green and Gold Adventurer's Guide is beautiful. The only pledge level for the Collectors is a full set though, so I couldn't nab Collectors Adventurer's Guide and Adventures in Zeitgeist since there's no base pledge for either of them?

    Adventures in Zeitgeist is gonna be available at the same time as the rest? I'd thought it was coming later on, awesome :D

    Level Up (A5E) How does 5.5e/6e impact Level Up?

    Pretty much this. There's some cool ideas present in stuff like Ravenloft, but rollable tables does not a TTRPG make. Core Class design that leaves everything interesting about Classes (Except for Spells, of course) to Subclasses, and then Subclasses that try to fix the Class leaving old...

    Level Up (A5E) 8 days to go....

    Yeah I'm really curious to see if Feats have meaningful changed from o5e. Them and Subclass design are still HUGE question marks.

    Level Up (A5E) How does 5.5e/6e impact Level Up?

    Oh yeah I still have GURPS Martial Arts as a reference book. My issue is that Level Up as a name, as a brand, is fantastic. As a thing to search for in TTRPG spaces, it is AWFUL. "Oh man I wonder if anyone in the Foundry server is excited for Level Up let me just search for it and...welp never...

    Oh those Orcs make me so happy. Especially with the ability to just get a Wizard Cantrip, of which Find Familiar is (presumably still) one :D Orcs with tiny little friends GOOD

    Level Up (A5E) How does 5.5e/6e impact Level Up?

    There is really nothing WotC could do to make o5e less of a joke of design that I trust them to manage at all. Letalone better than Level Up. I don't even think things like Martials and Casters existing on fundamentally different scales of having agency within the world is something that matters...

    Level Up (A5E) About the Future...

    Ha! My bestie recently got into Ravenloft because Gothic Horror is her jam, so I'm planning to run it in LU myself eventually, since I refuse to touch, let alone DM, 5e with a Reach Weapon. It is really disappointing to hear that there's not already plans for followthrough. Really hope it's...
