    [UPDATED!] The Unsung (Female) Half of the D&D Team!

    At a glance, it looks like the D&D team is much larger than we originally thought. I count at least two dozen. Lots of names on there.

    [UPDATED!] The Unsung (Female) Half of the D&D Team!

    *pulls out PHB* Withdrawn.

    [UPDATED!] The Unsung (Female) Half of the D&D Team!

    Is it wrong that I think much of the response to this thread illustrates exactly why this hobby is pretty well male dominated? The very idea that it is a good thing that so much of the D&D team is women is so abhorrent to many in this hobby that the response to it probably drives many women away...

    And then there were 8! On Chris Sims and Jennifer Clarke Wilkes' Layoffs...

    They can't say that either. Reducing produ production to nil then resuming so that it looks like there was a spike in sales then only claiming that there was a jump in sales would be misleading investors.

    D&D 5E (2014) The free online crunch: I don't think it's going to be as much as we think it is.

    I am really only expecting 15-20 pgs of stuff. Probably the Genasi, a handful of spells, a magic item or two, maybe a subclass. Then again, Jeremy Crawford said that the stuff beyond the PotA material may see print later on depending on popularity. If it is miniscule, it probably wouldn't even...

    D&D 5E (2014) Which non-Realmsian setting for you?

    I definitely want to see Dragonlance, but would also like to see Eberron and Mahasarpa. Dragonlance is where I cut my D&D teeth, and it has some of the best lore out there. Some people think that since we had the Tyranny of Dragons that there will be no Dragonlance. I think that if we do have...

    [UPDATED] Has ADVENTURER'S HANDBOOK Been Cancelled?

    I don't hole punch, I buy sleeves and put pages back to back, thus creating the illusion of a book. I did it with Basic D&D and keep it as a resource for new players that don't have the PHB.

    Warforged, Kender, Multiverses, & Errata - An Eclectic News Summary!

    I can't complain about free stuff. I kinda hope they compile it all in a book later on, though. I am not very keen on Errata, since they were big on it in 4E and it made the books almost worthless. Maybe a clarification here and there, but more than that is just asking for problems. I can't...

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

    I am curious where those people get their drugs, because the best fighter/mage in D&D history was the swordmage. The Eldritch Knight seems to work well enough. I wish they weren't so limited. It would have been better if their had access to three or four spell schools.

    D&D 5E (2014) Tiefling preview!

    Oh I know. I was joking. Kinda making fun of the people that think that we need to have twenty subraces of each race.

    D&D 5E (2014) Tiefling preview!

    TWO? There were at least three. I could easily see them make a subrace for both the Yugoloth and Demon descended Tieflings.

    D&D 5E (2014) Tiefling preview!

    Which makes sense, if you think about it. The pact/curse that created them goes from parent to child, no matter if both parents or one parent are tieflings.

    D&D 5E (2014) Tiefling preview!

    They were in the September 2013 and October 2013 playtest packets. So yeah, my point stands.

    D&D 5E (2014) Tiefling preview!

    Seems easy enough. I would love to see an article that gave a ton of subraces to the Tiefling like you described.

    D&D 5E (2014) Tiefling preview!

    It would have been nice if there was a Demonic subrace that got +1 to Constitution instead of Intelligence. Maybe a few other trait differences. Overall, there isn't much that I disagree with here.

    D&D 5E (2014) Tiefling preview!

    You know, I got to hand it to the devs. They put something this divisive up after the PHB race TOC was posted with the only race using an unknown number of pages is the Tiefling. Maybe there will be a sidebar talking about the demon-descended Tieflings. Maybe the Tiefling race will be 7 pages...

    D&D 5E (2014) Tiefling preview!

    Probably somewhere in the 175,000 playtesters.

    D&D 5E (2014) Tiefling preview!

    It's unusual that they went with the 4e Tiefling given how much hate it got. Must have been the loud minority not the majority. They said they are going to show more of the tiefling today, so hopefully we will see the Planescape one as well.

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D Unboxing Starter Set Video is on Youtube

    So... wasting three hours of time isn't going to have consequences? Are the goblins just morons without sentries and scouts looking for people in their hideouts? The dragon MUST wait for the party to show up before he can attempt to eat the princess or burn the town down? The charismatic BBEG...

    D&D 5E (2014) Should the Fighter's "Second Wind" ability grant temporary HP instead of regular HP?

    I am definitely in favor of having it remain as real Hit Points, but for there to exist an option for some sort of Temp HP ability that can be taken instead. Hit points, Hit points are way too immersion breaking for them to actually represent actual physical damage. If a stamina and wounds...
