    D&D 5E (2024) Suggestions for a simple 1st level adventure.

    T1 is a great adventure, but I'm looking for something short and ideally ready to go. U1 already has a 5e version, it is split in two short parts and I'm familiar with it, having run it. It's certainly one option.

    D&D 5E (2024) Suggestions for a simple 1st level adventure.

    Actually, not really. I gave a quite detailed setup, because all of that has already been thought and discussed. Others will legitimately organize things differently in a similar situation, but that's what we decided to do with my friend.

    D&D 5E (2024) Suggestions for a simple 1st level adventure.

    A friend of mine recently asked me to run a short adventure with the new version of the rules. He only played D&D (and RPGs in general) once - for a few sessions - some 7 years ago. His interest has recently been rekindled and he would like to play with his 14 years old nephew and 1-2 of his...

    It's Time To Vote For 2025's Most Anticipated TTRPGs!

    Many interesting possibilities here... I've voted for Ars Magica, So You've Met A Thousand Year Old Vampire and Trail of Cthulhu.

    Pirate Borg: Buried in the Bahamas

    Actually, I do. Where can I find the info to level up the parrot? Assuming that it can, in fact, gain levels.

    D&D 5E (2024) WotC should have stuck to it's guns with the 2024 Beyond Update

    I'm currently playing in a 2014 game and we use DDB each and every session. I'm happy that WotC reconsidered their bad decision.

    D&D 5E (2024) Is Shillelagh considered part of the Ranger spell list for purpose of scrolls?

    This. If you take Druidic Warrior and choose Shillelag as a spell, then it becomes a ranger spell for you, but since you have it as a prepared spell, you don't need it on a scroll. If you pick a different cantrip or you don't choose Druidic Warrior, then it is not a ranger spell for you and you...

    Nominate your MOST ANTICIPATED RPG of 2025

    On a more serious note, I'll add that if this is intended as marketing, it is having the opposite effect on me.

    Nominate your MOST ANTICIPATED RPG of 2025

    Unless in the rush to make all those drive-by nominations they then forget to come back and actually vote for it...

    Nominate your MOST ANTICIPATED RPG of 2025

    Why are you all swarming the site? One nomination is enough! :oops:

    What Happened to RPG Outreach/Ambassador Programs Run by Companies?

    I think that SJ Games still has the MIB program. https://www.sjgames.com/mib/

    D&D General The History of Alignment: Why D&D Has the Nine-Point Alignment System 4 UR Memes

    I was recently thinking along the same lines. Something somewhat moorcockian with Law as a force for stability and order, but also stagnation and Chaos as a force for evolution and change but also destruction and Neutrality trying to keep the balance. Those would be the cosmic forces, while good...

    D&D General The History of Alignment: Why D&D Has the Nine-Point Alignment System 4 UR Memes

    It's a shame. Unfortunately, the scanning program seems to have more or less stopped. And it's not like it would be too hard to do for them; after all, there are unofficial copies floating around.

    D&D General The History of Alignment: Why D&D Has the Nine-Point Alignment System 4 UR Memes

    That's Gary pandering to modern sensibilities. He ruined the game for me. I hope that you can actually find on the secondary market a clay tablet version of the original (and far superior) Bronze Age edition: Ziggurats & Zamzummims.

    [Fighting Fantasy] Caverns of the Snow Witch

    I agree. Warlock can be frustrating, but it has a lot of atmosphere and it motivated me to finish it. Starship Traveller didn't work for me. I played it several times and always failed without really having a clear idea of what was going on. At the end, I collated the info (I think it was some...

    [Fighting Fantasy] Caverns of the Snow Witch

    I'll follow along with interest. This one that I played and also successfully completed. I remember a little the twist, but my overall memory is hazy.

    The Lord of the Rings Roleplaying Added to D&D Beyond

    I don't have this specific book on DDB, but partial sharing is not possible in general.

    D&D 5E (2014) The 2024 Ranger is Actually Pretty Good (with numbers)

    Longbows require dex 13, like all heavy ranged weapons.

    The Lord of the Rings Roleplaying Added to D&D Beyond

    Is the character sheet working properly? From what I've read on DDB forums there were several issues.

    D&D General The Making of Original Dungeons & Dragons: 1970-1977 Coming In June

    Sure and I have those PDFs, but I would have liked an electronic version of the book itself. I'm not complaining, mind you. It is a beautiful book and I'm very happy about it.
