    D&D 5E (2014) I'm incapacitated, but I can move just fine.

    It's technically true but incapacitated seems to always be part of a more serious condition (paralyzed, petrified, stunned, unconscious) that specifies you can't move.

    D&D 5E (2014) So Monks can't actually use Eternal Mountain Defence until two levels after learning it?

    I just re-read the PHB section and I believe that Syntallah was initially correct. At 11th level, a monk would have 11 ki points and would be able to use eternal mountain defense twice between rests. The table and paragraphs on page 80 only applies to spells that increase in potency if they're...

    No, it's fine as it is what it is, but the last poll option needs fixing.

    D&D 5E (2014) Cleric Domains in PHB

    I said on twitter the other day that from 3e, I'd like to see Luck, Magic, and Travel. I can take or leave the Animal, Plant, and alignment domains.

    D&D 5E (2014) 5e Eldritch Knight vs PF Magus

    I don't have my PH in front of me, but the EK isn't solely restricted to just abjuration and evocation spells; at several levels they can choose spells from any school (I believe four times including at 3rd).

    Advanced Readings in Dungeons & Dragons

    This week they explore L. Sprague de Camp's book Lest Darkness Falls, which I haven't read. I knew it was an important book in the alternate history genre, but this discussion does little to elevate it on my must read list...

    Advanced Readings in Dungeons & Dragons

    This week, they cover August Derleth, who I think is one of the more controversial figures that Gygax listed in Appendix N. However, I think that they give him a pretty fair shake. http://www.tor.com/blogs/2013/07/advanced-readings-in-dad-august-derleth

    Advanced Readings in Dungeons & Dragons

    I thought that this may be of some interest to folks here...Tor.com (the SF/F book publisher) is hosting a blog series that explores the books and authors that Gary Gygax listed in Appendix N of the 1e AD&D DMG (aka Inspirational Reading). So far, they've discussed Robert E. Howard and his...

    Dragon 418 is out!

    I thought that both of last month's magazines were fantastic. BTW, if everyone isn't using the caldron magen to gank the squishy controller hiding behind the defender, I've failed as a writer and designer! :)

    Dragon 418 Table of Contents is up!

    I too have an article in this month's Dragon; it was fun doing conversions of monsters from the Known World/Mystara setting.
