Or you could just be a Rogue with a background that gives you survival. You now have a "Ranger" without spell casting.

I misspoke, two different words and meanings to represent the same thing in game terms. So why not use one term? This is why I theorized that that could change in a future class that we have yet to see or to be backwards compatible? Maybe I am just reading too much into this, lol.

You could be correct but using two terms for the same thing is kind of confusing. It does make it more backwards compatible 2014 book however.

So Rangers get the same number of spell slots as spell prepared? That keeps it simple. Taking a guess that Wizards will get more spells prepared than spell slots giving them greater flexibility. Guess they will get more slots than Rangers.

My savored enemy is a large meat lovers pizza, much better than play test version of Favored Enemy.

It's an increase in duration in the 2014 book. If it stays the same there is no increase in damage as you level, so kind of worthless class feature after low levels. In combat at least. I interpret "always prepared" as prepared at first level and one cast per long rest, so in my opinion savored...

The majority of the fan base have no idea what 4th edition is. We are the minority here on ENworld. I am positive that Wizard’s has done their market research. The environment is not the same as when 4e was released. I play with a lot of 20 something’s, 5e is D&D to them but they are not married...

If you watch the video or read the FAQ, they never say that you will be able to use the 2014 books. You won’t be able to. This will be by design. They did say you will be able to use the adventures and expansions. They want you to buy the new big three. It is what it is, so if you walk into a...

They seem to Be leaning heavily on Sigil, see the play test and the origins of humans for one. I for one would love the adventure to be Sigil based. As an aside I haven’t cracked my Planescape box set since the ‘90s, so hardly an expert. I just remember enjoying Sigil more than a planes romp...

I am assuming that they are going to offer some 6 inch figures from the movie also?

I have only watched a few episodes of Avatar with my kids. I will obviously be running this game for them. The depth of the description of the setting was amazing. I don't know a whole lot about the setting, but after reading the PDF, I feel very confident that I could run a campaign. My...

Well a bit has changed since the good old days of 4th edition and their weak attempt at VTT. They were just ahead of their time? :D Post COVID VTT is the way to go, so they would be bad executives to leave that money out there, plus all the ties in. So Jeager said what I was trying to say but...

The Known World has always been my favorite setting. I have always found the creativity to be amazing. Haven't played in the setting since the '80s and doubt I would want to go back to that ruleset. With all the modern rule sets that are easier and less time consuming for a busy old man. I have...

Well, met both individuals at various cons several times. My experiences were only negative with Gygax, the opposite was true with Arneson, so as a young man I was definitely in the Arneson camp. With more life experience, I can see the broader picture.

I don't live in OR, but I did buy both lines, pretty much every book. My D&D group enjoyed AiME, but that group dissolved during COVID. Looking forward to 2e of both. Backed One Ring, so I have the PDFs. Will probably do the same with AiME 2e. I have a pretty huge collection of FFG SW books and...

Guessing they plan to release a 5e version eventually, like they are with L5R, and develop them parallel like they are with L5R? Might be rather complicated considering the licensing, but they would be stupid not to, if they like money. Take the most popular IP and marry it with the most popular...

This all day long. In the US our children and grandchildren will pay the price of our greed in many ways.

You heard it here first Advanced Dungeon and Dragons, coming soon. :cool:

As I said before that's their crowd right there. Very smart marketing. As Umbran said, they make up the majority of the D&D crowd now. Grognards that complain about the current trajectory of D&D, need to understand this. Wizards is well aware of the changing dynamic. Millennials are much more...
