    D&D General Let's Talk About Eberron

    Sorry I missed that part. Still these seem to follow the AL format so I think (though am unsure) that each book may stand on its own, with ties to connect them if you wish. And yes I would recommend Prepared and the Book of Lairs. Excellent products I've used many times.

    D&D General Let's Talk About Eberron

    At the risk of sounding like a broken record I'd recommend the Book of Lairs from Kobold Press. (They also have follows up like Eldritch Lairs which I don't own) They are mini dungeons that I think take about a session and are completely contained little quests. They do tie loosely to Midgard...

    How often do you play a differently-gendered character when gaming?

    I didn't use to understand why you would want to, but after a group that regularly played different genders as well as becoming more open-minded towards gender I changed my mind. I still have only played 1 female character and in a different group than above. No friction from my friends but...

    D&D General Dungeons & Dragons Gets a My Little Pony Crossover

    I think a better option would be to make MLP-D&D Minis, for all those bronies who played Ponyfider or MLP hacks/homebrews.

    Voice Acting in Your Tabletop RPGs: How Much/Little?

    Same. We need an 10.5 Option "As much as possible. But we all suck" or "No professionals in sight."

    D&D 5E (2014) Would you let your player choose their magic items they get?

    Mostly no but I'm open to suggestion. I like the idea of a magic item wish-list. I'd ask each player to make a (short) list of items they would like to see. I'll use most or all of them spread out over the whole campaign. Some might be hard to get. I'm also open to magic items if they are part...

    WotC 5E 2020 Book Clue - I need your help!

    The Moonsea is a wonderful little area with a lot of politics going on and perfect for a little Dark Fantasy in your Realms if you want it. I support this entirely. I believe Myth Drannor was destroyed again. At least that's what it says in the SCAG.

    WotC 5E 2020 Book Clue - I need your help!

    You could make a good case for both. The phrasing "series of towns" does lead one to believe its a smaller area. For example, it is unlikely to be a full-size campaign for Greyhawk. It still could be, but I imagine it is focusing on a smaller area, an individual nation or perhaps even just that...

    D&D 4E Edition Experience - Did/Do You Play 4th Edition D&D? How Was/Is it?

    I started playing D&D with 4e around, 2013 or 2014? I was a senior in high school and hearing some D&D stories from my friend decided to give it a go. I didn't know anything about editions so I just went to the Comic Store to buy what they had. I wanted the Red Box Starter Set but they were...

    WotC 5E 2020 Book Clue - I need your help!

    Cormyr and the Dalelands are close, they could put them together in a book to cover a slightly wider area. My other thought is Greyhawk, as far as I'm aware, heraldry isn't a big as deal in FR, though some places have it. But crack open one of the Greyhawk books and one of the first pages is...

    TSR TSR’s Brian Blume Has Passed

    RIP Chief. Thanks for starting this crazy hobby, I am forever grateful.

    Pathfinder 2E Pathfinder Beginner Box in November

    I'd get it for the pawns and the adventures alone. Maybe I can convince my 5e group to give it a trial run with this. (But not likely.)

    D&D 5E (2014) Best adventure for first time DM

    I would also recommend Ghosts of Saltmarsh. It goes from Level 1-12. Each adventure can stand by itself but three are actually part of a series (Sinister Secret of Saltmarsh, Danger at Dunwater & the Final Enemy) and the rest are tied together pretty well. It comes with a detailed town and a...

    D&D 5E (2014) Have you actually read the 5e DMG?

    I read only what I needed at a given time but since its release I've probably read the whole thing, just not cover to cover. (Sans the Magic Item descriptions) I like the world building stuff, though if you are experienced in this or already have a world it isn't that useful. Adventure creation...

    Roleplaying in the time of corona: Tips for doing it online?

    If you don't use battlemaps or dice rollers something like Roll20 isn't going to be super useful to you. My suggestion would be to pick your favorite video-chat software and make a conference call. I've used Discord and Google Hangouts in the past. I like Discord because if you want to link an...

    Sweet! I was just planning on running this in an upcoming B/X Campaign.

    Hoh boy, that's a lot of stuff I like to hear. Time will tell I suppose!

    The One Ring/Adventures in Middle-earth License Goes to Free League

    Awesome! I'm so glad to see this is continuing. Now what I'm curious about is what about the progress C7 already made? Are they going to sell those art assets and already written manuscripts to Free League? Are they part of the license? Or do they have to start from scratch? Considering the...

    D&D General Playing Nicely In The Sandbox

    I believe that was the intention in changing things up for 4e. By that time there was already a large glut of material and many people found it intimidating to get into the setting. The idea was with the reset you could ignore the history and start fresh. I don't really think it worked though as...

    D&D General Playing Nicely In The Sandbox

    I love the bit about player's hating change. It is why Campaign Settings with a meta-plot are so often poorly received by players. I think its a great reason why 4e Forgotten Realms was so contentious. Sure as a DM you could ignore the Spellplague but I think as much as gamers hate change they...
