1. This one is a little tricky and I probably would not mind either ruling for or against this one. My thought is that since there is no damage possibility until an actual attack takes place, there may be cause to allow invisibility to remain. Eventually an attack will be made otherwise why...

You seemed a bit serious. I was trying to lighten the mood. Hence the :). I suppose I failed.

But that would mean that you get the last word which doesn't seem fair. :)

All ability scores can be dump stats depending on the character class and how you build it. I personally don't feel that Intelligence is any more of one than any other ability score depending on personal preference and character build. Insight and Arcana checks are both good reasons by...

We aren't talking about balls cut-in-half so this comparison only goes so far. A hemisphere can absolutely have a base (floor) while still being hollow. Your comparison here makes an assumption that a baseball like hemisphere would smush the miniature but the actual spell in question allows...

First, I was never responding to you directly or to any direct quotes in this thread regarding "domes". I was only referring to those who were using the word "hemisphere" in their descriptions as it seemed that some questioned whether a hemisphere would have a bottom to it. Second, my post...

Yes, I just read it last night. I believe it is in Chapter 9. EDIT: It's actually Chapter 10. Chapter 9 is Mantol-Derith.

Cool, thanks. I will check out those other threads.

Hemisphere's can have a base, which would equate to what many in this thread refer to here as the floor if that hemisphere is an object. The surface area of a hemisphere with a base is calculated as 3 π r2 as opposed to one without a base which would be calculated as 2 π r2. So I suppose...

There is a 4-part called After Lost Mine..... that involves the Orcs of the Ghost Tribe getting stirred up and bearing down on Phandalin. Another called The Torment of Sister Garaele which deals with her apparent abduction by unknown forces. There is also Glasstaff's Revenge which deals with...

The DMs Guild has a few adventures that occur after LMoP and within that setting. I am getting ready to run at least one of them as my current group just completed the actual Mine portion but that will probably still not get them to Level 10. Afterwards I will either runs some homebrew (that...

After reading the UA on this, I have to admit this seems very interesting.

Zaratan, I think part of the disconnect here is that you seem to be speaking with a lot of exaggeration and we don't understand whether you are doing so instead of trying to be literal. Many of your own statements seem to be contradicted by you later when someone takes it to task. With that...

How many PCs are you running in this game because that is very relevant to your claims. I don't see anything in the first half of the campaign to suggest the statement "any city the players go last, don't have encounters to match lvl 5 to 7 players" unless you are running a party of 8 or more...

Yes, I think this is an important point to note. I've read/heard from a few DMs that complain that the Velkynvelve prison is too difficult to escape and will most likely get the characters killed trying but it is really not in the best interest of the Drow prison keepers to kill the characters...

The first thing I would suggest is to lay down some very specific ground rules moving forward if she hasn't already. It's hard to know what the next possible course of action would be unless and until this has happened. Make sure the player's understand how much work she must put into it just...

Invisibility gives you the ability to Hide in what would normally be plain sight the way I understand it. Hiding would otherwise require some sort of cover that allows you to hide which is not always available depending on the current terrain/circumstances.

A new Starter Set (or any Starter Set for that matter), is not going to mean the same thing to an experienced player that it is to someone being introduced to the game for the first time. So while it may be interesting to an experienced player, it needs to be simple and easy to understand and...

No because quite frankly, if it wasn't fun I simply would not play. Any perceived pressures would be generated by my own mind. In other words I can either embrace the 5E rules and have fun with them either as written or with my own modifications with the alternative being work under "pressure"...

I just recently started using this and really like it a lot. Thanks, for putting it together.
