    Dungeons & Dragons Releases New Unearthed Arcana Subclasses, Strongly Hinting at Dark Sun

    That has been WotC's policy, but they own the IP, they could open whatever they want on DM's Guild.

    Dungeons & Dragons Releases New Unearthed Arcana Subclasses, Strongly Hinting at Dark Sun

    I can't find a layout credit on the DDB version. It there one in the printed copy? I don't have access to it at the moment.

    Spoilers Alien: Earth Spoiler Thread

    Ah, I don't think they put those on Disney+ (at least in Italy). But it's all good, I would try not to read them in any case...

    Spoilers Alien: Earth Spoiler Thread

    I wonder if we will get some kind of flashback on what happened on the Maginot. Morrow mentions a sabotage and we just got very brief flashes.

    What Property Do You Still Want to See Get a TTRPG Adaptation

    There is one which was kickstarted and, from what I've read in the updates, is coming out now. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/maestromedia/the-smurfs-roleplaying-game/posts P:S.: I haven't backed the campaign, so I don't know anything about the game itself.

    TSR Why would anyone WANT to play 1e?

    Yes, the issue is there. As I wrote earlier, I added a sixth category (Traps & Mishaps) and I really don't have much of a problem when running AD&D, while enjoying the way it works. I agree though that it is easier to assign a category in the ref/fort/will paradigm and that the decisions will...

    Critical Role to Use D&D 2024 Rules For Campaign Four, Expands to Three Tables and Thirteen Players

    Suppose, just for the sake of argument, that there actually is a paid sponsorship by WotC. Then what? What does it change? Why should we care?

    TSR Why would anyone WANT to play 1e?

    They work fine for me, I've been using them for decades. Honestly, I I'm not too concerned if something is - in general - good game design. It just has to work at my table.

    Critical Role to Use D&D 2024 Rules For Campaign Four, Expands to Three Tables and Thirteen Players

    Must be the same insiders that talked years ago about Kathleen Kennedy imminent firing from Lucasfilm.

    TSR Why would anyone WANT to play 1e?

    I, on the other hand, much prefer the saving throw categories of older editions that are classified by effect to avoid and not by avoidance method. I've even added a sixth category (for my house-ruled AD&D).

    AD&D 2E Race Level Restrictions. HELP PLEASE!

    I think that level limits might be (sort of) balanced in an "open table" campaign in which players have a stable of characters. I've personally dropped them very quickly.

    What is a West Marches game?

    Ever since I've heard of the idea, I've been fascinated by it. How it the "one-shot" nature enforced? Does it never happen that real-life time runs out and the PCs are still in the "dungeon" or still in the wilderness?

    OSR OSE Starter Set: Dungeons of the Undermoon

    Necrotic Gnome has been mentioning Dungeons of the Undermoon for a while, but I paid attention to it only with the latest development update email. It is a boxed set with three books: players, referees (with a base town) and adventure + bestiary. It covers levels 1 - 3 (I wonder if they'll...

    D&D 5E (2024) When are we getting announcements for 2026 books?

    I know that I'm in the minority here, but I'm in no hurry to hear about the 2026 books. There are two starter sets coming out soon, then two FR books and then the Eberron book. Dragon Delves is still recent. I'll think about future releases later on.... :p

    D&D General Why do people like Alignment?

    I find alignments as descriptors useless; as such, I don't use them in 4e or 5e. I use them in AD&D as cosmological factions which also have in-game effects: class restrictions, spell effects, magical items, etc.

    US Tariffs: $80-$200 Surcharge On All Packages Regardless of Price

    Digital purchases can be taxed and they often are. When I buy something from D&D Beyond, I get charged the Italian IVA (a value added tax) for digital books.

    I read it a long time ago, but I found it a poor book, Never had any interest in picking up the rest of the trilogy.
