    D&D 5E (2014) Companion thread to 5E Survivor: Species

    The inclusion of subspecies is really skewing this. It takes about 40 votes to get rid of Tieflings but only 5 votes to get rid of Warforged or Aasimar.

    D&D General Most predictable character death

    She was explicitly warned 3 times that trying to jump onto a fast-moving car would kill her if she missed, and that it would be hard. She was dead when the car hit her anyway, and this way it also helped us "succeed" so it wasn't in vain. Everyone was laughing, and she got handed the...

    D&D General Most predictable character death

    The game I'm am a player in (IRL) had this happen last night. We're trying to catch a thief who ran from one city to another, and got the police to set up a roadblock just outside the town we think the thief was headed to. This setting is kind of steampunk-1920s, so there are cars and guns...

    RPG Evolution: Dice Gifts for Gamers

    I haven't bought dice from them, but I recommend the Dice of Rolling dice sets, as they contain all the right dice for D&D in legible, high-contrast colors. I do have their wood battle tokens and like them a lot.

    D&D 5E (2014) 5E Survivor - Subclasses (Part XV: The FINAL ROUND)

    Spells by spell list and level. I really like Black Blades of Disaster more than Wish.

    D&D General The DM Shortage

    Locally, the problem isn't a shortage of DMs... it's a shortage of available time slots that work for everybody on a consistent basis.

    WotC D&D Beyond current development

    DDB is how many years old, and still can't properly implement Barbarian Rage, a core feature since 2014? So...yeah, not optimistic about major improvements. I still use it a lot for convenience, though.

    D&D 5E (2014) Have You Started Planning How You Will End 5e Yet?

    That's the multi-million dollar question for WOTC/Hasbro... will the market support the new edition, or will most people who have already bought 5e (10M+?) do 5 minutes of research, go "meh" and not spend the money? If so, there's a risk that they will double down on the mistake by making moves...

    D&D 5E (2014) Have You Started Planning How You Will End 5e Yet?

    No, I don't like the direction of the changes. The feedback is 80%+ positive because those of us who don't like it have already checked out of the discussion. I won't be buying any of the new books. One of my players probably will because he buys everything, but other than that, I don't...
