... and? It has been a good long time since WotC had a D&D setting that was even close to authentically medieval in print. In fact, I'm not sure WotC, as distinct from original-TSR, ever has. And Zeitgeist is certainly nothing of the sort. Most settings are much more urbanized, with remarkably...

I don't think a leather brigantine would be wearable... nor would it float very well, at least not for long. Wood seems all around much more viable for shipbuilding. (You no doubt mean "brigandine".) As for leather armour, it's in a weird place in D&D and other RPGs. It's sometimes said to be...

Sounds like a lot of work! I'm very glad this exists and will probably read it at some point, but I can't promise when. I just finished the second adventure in 4E with a group that quite likes that system. Haven't really had much of a chance to look at the other versions that already exist, let...

Setting aside most of the discussion and just touching on the original question, the biggest thing for me is that in a world like the Realms where the deities can be pretty active in directly interacting with mortals, there should be a lot fewer doctrinal disputes. When you can go on Reddit and...

I mean, there's at least a few initially well-reviewed titles of theirs that haven't stood the test of time, and keeping reviews positive to keep getting perks from the producers (which can go well beyond free books) is a pretty well-known issue, including, maybe especially, in adjacent spaces...

Well I didn't quite go all-in - backed for the three core hardcovers, then added Zeitgeist manually. I think it's easily the most I've spent on a Kickstarter, though. I'd say good luck but you don't seem to need it. It had already blown past its nominal goal a few times over by the time I went...

Plus WotC is in no sense an "investment company"...

There's a specific list of things you can do with the extra action from Haste, and casting a spell of any kind is not one of them. EDIT: Curses, ninjaed!

It's a small nitpick, I know, but you want "throes", not "throws".

Does this mean there's only one of each type of elemental?

Well I'll be dipped. That's kind of dumb though, the head is a lot smaller of a target and almost everyone will try to protect it with their weapon or shield or if all else fails by leaning back. Even letting an arm get cut off is better than taking a solid headshot without a helmet in...

Source? This is the first I've ever heard of this and I'm pretty sure I read the 1E DMG cover to cover multiple times back in the day.

The copy I downloaded, by way of Hirou, had (as his own post also suggests) a "Level2" file but no additional ones following that naming convention for higher levels.

[Thread necromancy in progress...] Just noticed a minor omission - these don't appear to include the Detect Planar Energies ritual Gale gives the party in the second adventure (which also figures in, at least, the third).

I don't think this is ambiguous; it's definitely the second one. There's no reason for the "any"s to be there if they aren't quantifying the relevant amount of fighting or spellcasting.

Entered. Don't exactly have a favourite but the one I'd be most excited about were I to win is probably Rising from the Last War, followed closely by Tomb of Annihilation.

Is it just me or is the perspective on that GI Joe cover really weird? It's very hard to tell where anything/anyone is in relation to each other. That's still the one I'm most interested in and it's not close.

Only picked 11 but that was a case of trying to stick to the really important stuff, if I clicked everything that interests me about this project it would easily have been over twice that. If I could only pick one it would probably be "Meaningful choices every time you level up", this is what...

I'm not sure where the information that it starts October 5 comes from (I was in fact just about to complain that I can't find that kind of information anywhere - here, Kickstarter, or www.levelup5e.com!), but if that's true you're very unlikely to get it by the 9th. Notice that Russ said awards...

Some people need to how things actually work out in play before they have any real idea who their character is. Having run it to completion, WotBS gives plenty of opportunities to form connections after the campaign starts.
