So a dwarf can put on 50 pounds of heavy armor and it won't reduce his speed but if he puts on 10 pounds of light armor it will reduce his speed, given that the rule only mentions heavy armor?

In my mind it is much simpler than that. Dragons and giants both eat a lot of food. They can't eat food that the other has already eaten. The more giants there are then the fewer dragons can avoid starving. Similarly the more dragons there are then the fewer giants can avoid starvation. They're...

31 square miles is about 864,230,400 square feet, or 34,569,216 five foot squares. If they take one six second turn to search each square it will take them 57,615 hours to do so. If they do so 12 hours per day and 365.25 days per year they can complete the project in about 13.145 years. If the...

It's a network effect. People want an official campaign setting because they know that other people are more likely to be willing to play in an official setting, and this increases their chances of having a gaming group that does not fall apart.

When I ran Sunless Citadel I knew that the boss fight with the CR 7 Young Black Dragon was going to be a cake walk, so I had to reskin a Young Red Dragon (Cr 10) instead. There were 7 characters, two at Level 4 and 5 at Level 3. In the next campaign (six of the same seven players), I had to...

You've obviously worked hard on this and it seems both nice and a good conversion of earlier works. However I think that some of the armor is just too good in 5e terms. Darkleaf breastplate and Dreamhide (Light but AC 14 + DEX) and Darkleaf banded armor (Medium but AC 16 + DEX (max +2)), in...

Right, but a gas giant has such a thick atmosphere that (if it is at earth like temperatures) than it's going to look overwhelmingly grey when you look down on it or while on it you look down or sideways. It might well look blue as you look up though.

Not in Adventurers League or other organized play and that is what I ran in the before times.

Hi, It would probably be grey because clods of water vapor are grey, and if the planet is not warm enough for clouds of water than it doesn't have an earth like atmosphere. To us it would probably look like a ball of thick smog. Blue would be prettier though.

You should have known that the spell had material components when you chose it, and yet you chose not to have a component pouch or be a member of a class that permits implement substitution; and you expect the DM to save you from your folly by altering the equipment list, rather than just make...

I did not notice, I guess that I should have checked the date when it came us as a "Similar Thread" to a new thread. Never mind.

It also says [PHB pg 205] that "If you can't provide one or more of a spell's components, you are unable to cast the spell". The logical conclusion is that you are using a material component that you have taken from your component pouch. This clearly will not work if the pouch is empty and the...

Have you considered listing some adventures for more than one edition? What if I didn't like 3.0 "Forge of Fury" but I do like 5e Forge of Fury" (or vice versa)?

One week when I was running Adventurers League the party that week thought that they had no healing; until I realized that the newly level 2 Ranger ha not picked her known spells. I suggested that she pick 'Cure Wounds' as one of them. She did, and it saved the party. The other 200+ weeks...

Why was your character permitted to start with an item not on the equipment list? Did your DM house rule it? RAW you cant cast the spell without the component, even the component without a specific cost unless 1) your class allows you to use an item instead and you have one OR 2) you have a...

RAW says that generic monsters such as "Veteran" or "Thug" or "ArchMage" may be given racial abilities for their race. For the Races "Human" and "Custom Lineage" a Feat is already possible. Thus, just as you could give a Dwarven Veteran Darkvision you could give a (Variant) Human Veteran any...
