    Dragonlance Dragonlance: Is it possible to run a Dragonlance game using the current core rules and material?

    IMO, there are two ways to do this: 1. Build all-new subclasses or classes. I am not sure if it is worth effort or not, that is for you to decide. 2. Create backgrounds: Knights of Solamnia could be a background open figther-champions, fighter-battlemaster, paladins, etc. (or depending on...

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana:Are they revealing limitations in the 5th edition system?

    Huh? UA would still exist because they need to test stuff for future releases. Also DMs Guild would still exist because some people would want more. What I think that you are missing is that there has to be a critical mass of people who would buy the next product (without can canabalising...

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana:Are they revealing limitations in the 5th edition system?

    You do realize that not everyone has lots of money to spend on their hobby, right? If someone only has $50-$100 to spend a year then it could be hard to keep up with the 2 AP/1other book. Don't assume that everyone has lots of money to spend on hobbies.

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana:Are they revealing limitations in the 5th edition system?

    I don't think he did. You do realize that they could put out a VGtM or SCAG every other year instead of every year, right? Heck they could even release one every three years.

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana:Are they revealing limitations in the 5th edition system?

    I think it is overly harsh to say that they are unimaginative and should be replaced (in fact I would call it mean and uncalled for). The design team would seem to be doing a good job since the edition from all reports is doing well. I personally like some of the UAs and some I don't but that...

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana:Are they revealing limitations in the 5th edition system?

    Are you serious? What part of that isn't true? People constantly create threads saying we don't have enough options People complain the UA isn't usable in AL or "official". People complain that they don't like these UA options and they want different ones that WoTC isn't doing. It is very...

    D&D 5E (2014) What books from previous editions do you tend to mine for material?

    Setting books are great. I have been using the PF Green Ronin Freeport: City of Adventure PF Magnimar City of Monuments. Also the PF Castles of the Inner Sea would be great to use.

    D&D 5th Edition Starter Set

    5 out of 5 rating for D&D 5th Edition Starter Set Lost Mines of Phandelver is a very good low level adventure. It has a slight sandbox feel to it while still keeping the plot moving along. The only real downside of the adventure is that the Big Bad Guy is relatively uninspiring.

    Tales From The Yawning Portal - 7 Classic Dungeons Updated To 5E!

    I think the reason that we aren't seeing setting guides is that WoTC wants to appeal to as many people as possible with its 1 expansion release per year. With the SCAG they had a part setting guide (to appeal to DMs) and part play options to appeal to players. VGtM had some players options to...

    D&D 5E (2014) What would you put in Volume 2 of Tales of the Yawning Portal

    I would love to see B10 Nights Dark Terror X4 Master of the Desert Nomads X5 Temple of Death X10 Red Arrow, Black Shield S4 The Lost Caverns of Tsojcanth Red Hand of Doom Reavers of Harkenwold Well that would be my preference. Probably not realistic though. I also wouldn't mind seeing a...

    Volo’s Guide to Monsters

    5 out of 5 rating for Volo’s Guide to Monsters I really enjoy VGtM. It made for a nice read and it contained some great monsters and lore (especially Hags). It is worth the $50 but it is a steal at the Amazon price (currently about $30). I am already planning on using the variant Hobgoblins...

    Tome of Beasts

    4 out of 5 rating for Tome of Beasts Overall I really like the Tome of Beasts. I picked it up from Amazon for $45, so it was a good deal. It has a good selection of high level creatures (especially fey) which I greatly appreciate. It also has a crazy amount of monsters. The downside is that I...

    (ENN) Kobold Press’ Midgard Coming soon to Kickstarter

    Everytime I click the Grand Duchy link from that their page both on my phone and my computer, I get a page not found message. I picked up the Tome of Beasts from Amazon, and I backed their Demon Cults and Secret Societies kickstarter as well. I will most likely back the Midgard kickstarter...

    Unearthed Arcana Unearthed Arcana Introduces The Artifcer

    I understand the people who don't like the "gun" but that is an easy fix, just refluff it to a wand or special crossbow. I like the class overall.

    D&D 5E (2014) What settings would you like to see in 5e?

    Also Cook's Black Company world and Martin's Game of Thrones world both of which should be relatively easy to bring to 5E. I also want Dragonlance. Also Bakker's Second Apocalypse Series world would be cool as well.

    D&D 5E (2014) What settings would you like to see in 5e?

    Erickson's (and Esselmont's) world from Malazon Book of the Fallen series. I think that the Warren magic would be hard to replicate in 5E though.

    Tales From The Yawning Portal - 7 Classic Dungeons Updated To 5E!

    What I want is a book of short adventures that are themed that includes classics and some new ones. Such as having a I3-I5 and X4 and X5 with 2 new desert adventures. I think the ideal mix would be 3-5 classics with 2-4 new adventures.

    D&D 5E (2014) WOTC Production Schedule

    We most likely are getting a major expansion book (similar to a PHB2 but not titled that) in the fall.

    Tales From The Yawning Portal - 7 Classic Dungeons Updated To 5E!

    Some people just can't be pleased. "I am tired of APs, I want shorter adventures." WoTC: "Here is a book of 7 shorter adventures." "I didn't mean those shorter adventures."
