    What's your favorite Audiobook?

    But how do you stuff the CDs into your phone?!? :confused:

    What's your favorite Audiobook?

    Does he do the slow southern drawl voice in this one? I found it somewhat offputting in Correia's Grimnoir series. Otherwise, I agree with what I've heard/read of your list. Ready Player One, in particular. World War Z: Also excellent. I kind of wish GraphicAudio's full cast/sound effect...

    3D Printing the Elven Man-O-War from Spelljammer!

    This makes me want to adapt the -Wing skirmish rules for Spelljammer.

    D&D 5E (2014) Give Sorcerers their due!

    Welcome to the forums. But I think you may have misinterpreted a couple things about the wizard.

    D&D 5E (2014) Ghouls and Ghasts

    So they're just factoring in partial cover? :p

    What's your favorite Audiobook?

    I just finished up the last of the Dresden Files audiobooks, and find myself a bit aimless about what to download next. Any good suggestions? I like my fantasy to be targeted to a little bit "older" audience. Joe Abercrombe, Brandon Sanderson or Matthew Stover tell the types of stories that...

    D&D 5E (2014) Does Condition Immunity: Poison give Disease Immunity?

    Would it be wrong to give every single creature 3 levels of paladin and avoid the issue entirely?

    D&D 5E (2014) So, thoughts on the Paladin now?

    The player of my paladin is liking the class quite a lot. His damage output isn't as high as the GWF battlemaster, but he feels like he can contribute in solid ways. Compelled Duel is a favorite, as is using his reaction to impose disadvantage on certain attack rolls against whichever other...

    D&D 5E (2014) Issues with the "NPCs" in the MM and HotDQ (SPOILERS!)

    I just wanted to weigh in that I hate this line (Sorry, Authweight, nothing personal -- you just happened to be the one to say it most recently). Just because you have a problem with one aspect of a system doesn't mean the system "just isn't for you." You can like, even love, the other aspects...

    D&D 5E (2014) Issues with the "NPCs" in the MM and HotDQ (SPOILERS!)

    First of all, welcome to the boards! As to the meat of your post... This topic has seen quite a bit of discussion, and you'll find many who agree with you based on the dreaded "V" word (which can start fights occassionally). Others will say that NPCs and PCs are their own thing and shouldn't...

    D&D 5E (2014) Please Support Eberron!

    Quoted for emphasis. I like Eberron, but that's not why I made my donation.

    D&D 5E (2014) How would adjust a monster's CR for 4 levels of exhaustion?

    How did I not know about the monsters database?!? Sounds like a cool encounter!

    D&D 5E (2014) How would adjust a monster's CR for 4 levels of exhaustion?

    I really feel like it depends on the monster. The exhaustion levels are going to be way more detrimental to something that is primarily a brawler than something that has a breath weapon or other such abilities. Please tell me its a tarrasque down there. Please.

    Oh sure, make yours PRETTY. /scoff ;)

    D&D 5E (2014) Encounter difficulty: how to fix it.

    I created a really quick and ugly one-page PDF of this stuff for people to print out and give it a try, if they're so inclined. Sorry for stepping on any toes, Gobelure.

    D&D 5E (2014) Does Condition Immunity: Poison give Disease Immunity?

    I'm going to let common sense be my guide on a case by case basis.

    D&D 5E (2014) How We Beat the HD, HotDQ, Spoilers

    Hi Steve, thanks for dropping in. On the whole, I think this is a mountain/molehill situation. But I do want to address this line I quoted, because I don't think it succeeded at that particular design intention. It did trigger those feelings... just not against the Cult of the Dragon...

    D&D 5E (2014) Here's a complaint about the 5e books...

    My itty-bitty complaint would be that the pages are so thin that they stick together. So when looking for page, say, 82, I can get to 80, or 84. But 82 requires one of those rubber finger tip things that looks like a cactus (or maybe a sea creature).
