An alternate name might be nice though. I liked when they had alternate names for dinosaurs that were a little less odd to say in a medieval setting

I don't think there is anything wrong with having some built in flavor/lore behind psionics. The little details they put about various things in 5th edition is something that I really like. Like how demons dissolve into foul ichor when defeated. The Far Realm as a concept is D&D is fine to me...

I'm pretty sure the Lucky feat with disadvantage works like this: You roll 2d20 as you do when rolling with disadvantage, then you decide to use a luck point and roll an extra d20; you choose which 2 of the 3 dice will be used to determine disadvantage (like the 2 highest if you are smart). So...

This is precisely what I'd like to see. Like a version of Dungeon Magazine that focuses on settings (with some adventure content) instead of focusing on adventures (with some setting content).

The condition track looks to be the only thing that really came from SAGA edition. It looks to be more difficult to abuse in 5th edition though.

I think the most lore accurate would probably use the 3rd edition maps with the 4th edition political changes. Countries that were drowned or destroyed like Var the Golden or Halruaa are probably still ruins, just ruins that can be salvaged now.

I noticed it was sold out yesterday before that kotaku article was up.

Apparently the Monster Manual is currently sold out on amazon at the moment.

I think this new Monster Manual has the best art for the monster entries themselves that I have seen yet, and that is going back to 1st edition. The flavor text is different, but not better or worse than some older editions. I like the descriptions of how the various evil outsiders disintegrate...

I would be interested in seeing a multiple weaker foe analysis also. On the subject of the monk. There might be tactics the monk can use to mitigate damage from a single foe. For example against the fire giant. A monk could pull a bit of a hit and run against a fire giant by flurrying, using...

Only big problem I see with adding "far greater granularity" on to the 5e system is avoiding the problems that such granularity caused in a system like 3e/3.5e. The problem where the DM would have to make the DC of tasks really high to challenge the players that concentrated on certain skills...

For those who think there is completely unbelievable or that there is no possibility of humans or close-to-human creatures in 1 billion years, there are "living fossils" on Earth now. Some of which have changed very little 300-500 million years.

1-2 players needed, we mostly play every other Sunday. Beginners welcome.

We need at least 1 more, preferably 2 more for a game. We play mostly Sundays. Beginners welcome.

Looking for 2 players at the moment. Mostly play Sundays. Message me for more info.

I'm just curious, what book does it actually say that having an aura of a certain school means that the effect is of that school. That particular property can be made with either a necromancy spell or a psionic power, so it's weird that the effect would always be necromancy.

Can a 4th level Warforged Juggernaut (with "...immunity to...necromancy effects.") benefit from the Bodyfeeder weapon property (Aura: Moderate; (DC 19) necromancy)?
