If the identities of the accusers were kept anonymous in order to protect them from online hatred, why wasn't the identity of the accused also kept anonymous for the same reason? After all, in the online politically correct world, someone accused of harassing women will face FAR more hatred and...

As I am currently writing a game using standard playing card-based resolution, I'd be interested to know why you don't like it. Is it simply a love of rolling dice, or something more? Is there something that a card-based game could do to get you to like it? One of the features IMO is the...

I agree with Andrew, looks like Dinotopia to me! They should get James Gurney to do some art for it.

Not sure how they'll improve upon 2nd ed, it was an excellent game, but I'd say add more ways for the mental/social abilities to influence the game so that increasing WS, S, and T are not always the best options.

I've rewatched some of my favorite parts several times, like "I wanna RAGE!" I think whenever a player is reluctant to dive into his character and give it a unique voice and personality they should be shown this video, to show just how fun it can be, how all the other players and GM feed off of...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u8MRyyFDX3c It has been up for a couple of days on Youtube. It was a hilarious adventure, well worth watching!

Yes, but you also have to shout "GREEN FLAME!" when the spell goes off, or else Chris Perkins will be unhappy.

Crowd control? It only affects a single target. And Banishment can do the same at a far lower level slot. I added the Exhaustion effect because each round trapped in the Maze feels like it's much longer, and running through the maze searching for an exit is tiring. After your 1st failed Int...

These are my solutions. I'm not convinced Vampiric Touch is that bad since armored mages are now possible in 5e, the assumption that they can't enter melee is less true than before. Maze: Each round that the target attempts to escape the maze and fails it gains 1 level of Exhaustion. (see pg...

I'm going to guess a Guild Wars RPG, because I'd certainly buy that!

I think they should just use the classic AD&D PHB cover (statue with the gem eyes) and put Gygax's head on it...

On the other hand, if you use Wildshape for recon and spying, changing into a hummingbird or owl or something is normally very dangerous because your HP are so low. Keeping your own HP no matter the form would make you a very tough owl!

What if Druids keep their own HPs when they wildshape? You get the shape of a bear, attacks, etc, but your HPs are whatever they were before you changed, and there is no healing or different HPs in a new form.

While it is not official, I wrote "5e Player's Options" which adds 1 new archetype for every class (among other things), and for the Cleric, I chose to add the Love domain. You can get it here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-n7dDd5NJqBQks1ZVpqUDhIQ2M/edit?usp=sharing

We did a concentration check to cast underwater in our game, and I think that's a fair compromise.

Version 1.1 is now available: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-n7dDd5NJqBQks1ZVpqUDhIQ2M/edit?usp=sharing It includes changing the Fighter archetype's name to Stalwart Defender, several changes to the Con-Artist that give them a limited selection of Battlemaster Maneuvers, removing the spell...

It's finally here! 12 pages full of new options for 5e characters: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-n7dDd5NJqBYlVYbWhPYmMwNFE/edit?usp=sharing There are 5 new sub-races, 12 new class archetypes, 4 new feats, and 15 new backgrounds! I look forward to your feedback and comments.

Riffing on the 2e Player's Options name, I'm writing a free 5e supplement that will contain an additional option for each race (that has sub-races) and class. Now you can play Aquatic Elves, Arctic Dwarves, Deep Gnomes, or Ghostwise Halflings. Look for often-requested class archetypes like a...

Let me point out a few things about Guidance: 1) It is a spell, requiring verbal and somatic components. That means it is obvious spellcasting to viewers and listeners, which likely won't be taken kindly in many places. Casting an unknown spell in the middle of a delicate negotiation or the...

Thanks for letting us know! I just pre-ordered the MM and DMG and a Savage Sword of Conan Essentials and got $10 off.
