    D&D 5E (2014) Princes of the Apolcalypse/Adventurer's Handbook by Sasquatch Game Studios

    I think it's actually Apollocalypse. They've turned Tharizdun into Apollo! They've gone too far! /ragequit Thaumaturge!

    D&D 5E (2014) 5E Wishlists!

    Slightly off topic, but it seems like we should be able to have an EnWorld table rotating DM on google hangouts or roll20 (or whatever). We are primarily DMs, I think, and we could all runs one-shots or mini campaigns for everyone else. The technology exists and we are creative people. I think...

    D&D 5E (2014) Does anyone who got an mm at Gencon want to offer up spoilers to us?

    Skeleton: no Vampire has variants: warriors and spellcasters. Zombie has: zombie, ogre zombie, and beholder zombie, but those aren't really variants, I guess. Wraith: no. Wight: no. Shadow: nos. Crawling Claw: there is a living claw option, which is sweet (an animated hand of a living person...

    D&D 5E (2014) Ask me Monster Manual questions!

    Bone Naga (CR 4) Spirit Naga (CR 8) Guardian Naga (CR 10) Yes. It's best if you don't post pictures. Sometimes those are taken down. Don't post complete statblocks or anything. EDIT: What strange series of events led me to answering you inside my quoting you is already lost to the annals of...

    D&D 5E (2014) 5E Wishlists!

    It's early in the morning. I haven't finished my first cup of coffee, so maybe I missed it. Am I actually the first person to say Psionic Handbook? Because, weird. As for splats, I like what I think is happening: every few (8?) months, we'll get a new book of character options for all classes...

    Szass Tam, lich emperor of Thay is a pretty big baddie is a pretty good candidate. Thaumaturge.

    D&D 5E (2014) What is WotC actually working on?

    We know Mrs. mearls is working on a baby, so that's his next big project. The rest? Boardgames? Card games? Thaumaturge?

    D&D 5E (2014) Princes of the Apolcalypse/Adventurer's Handbook by Sasquatch Game Studios

    I'm running a Ruins of Undermountain campaign. 2e material has worked really well so far with little to no conversion. If I feel like it, I look up the new monster stats. If I don't, I use the 5e conversion sheet that's floating around. There is almost no time investment. And the balance is...

    D&D 5E (2014) Princes of the Apolcalypse/Adventurer's Handbook by Sasquatch Game Studios

    Figured. Especially with how quickly you fixed it. Still, I thought it was pretty funny given the context. And I've played probably 5-10 times as much in Greyhawk than in Forgotten Realms. I like both, but my like of FR is fairly recent. Once we are anywhere near this adventure coming out, I...

    D&D 5E (2014) Princes of the Apolcalypse/Adventurer's Handbook by Sasquatch Game Studios

    Makes sense. The heroes of the Flaness have repeatedly thwarted him. He's looking for greener pastures. Tiamat and Lloth keep muttering about this "Toril" place. He's way crazier than they are, so he'll succeed where they've failed. Thaumaturge.

    Fixed it for you. And if I had, I wouldn't be able to talk about it. Also, I was going to call you out for your awesome trolling of "Grayhawk" fans. Then you fixed it. :p Perhaps a less hyperbolic example would be if they published a new version of Ruins of Myth Drannor but set it in the...

    D&D 5E (2014) Princes of the Apolcalypse/Adventurer's Handbook by Sasquatch Game Studios

    If you're the kind of person who cares deeply about Greyhawk, how difficult will it be to port the adventure over? Thaumaturge?

    D&D 5E (2014) Princes of the Apolcalypse/Adventurer's Handbook by Sasquatch Game Studios

    You could very well be right, and I could just be excusing the price of the adventure. However, my thought is that for the "Tyranny of Dragons" story arc, they didn't use the name "Tyranny of Dragons" for either adventure because that's the name of the story arc as a whole. My guess is...

    D&D 5E (2014) Princes of the Apolcalypse/Adventurer's Handbook by Sasquatch Game Studios

    2 a year is definitely too ambitious for my group. The good news is, though, after a couple of years, we'll have plenty to pick from. My guess is one every 8 months. That's the gap here, and that feel like a more sustainable pace. The ad copy doesn't mention multiple books. Morrus does in his...

    D&D 5E (2014) Princes of the Apolcalypse/Adventurer's Handbook by Sasquatch Game Studios

    Taking a cue from the Adventurers League guidelines, I think the supplements will be potentially useful for later campaigns and will be as useful as a DM wants them to be. In the guidelines, they mention you pick the "storyarc" your character uses rules from. The storyarc doesn't have to be...

    Licensed and yes. At least, that's how I read it. Thaumaturge.

    Pathfinder 1E What's this, then, Paizo? ANOTHER video game? By Obsidian?

    What about pass-and-play? It would be nice to have a game we could easily carry and play all con in various lines and waiting situations. Thaumaturge.

    D&D 5E (2014) Princes of the Apolcalypse/Adventurer's Handbook by Sasquatch Game Studios

    I like the rules supplement tied to a specific adventure/story-arc approach. It makes it much easier to know what to say "yes" or "no" to. Thaumaturge.

    D&D 5E (2014) Where are the PDFs?

    Yep. There are programs that let you download your kindle books and remove the DRM from them. They still work on the kindle devices after that, too. The main problem is you have to be proactive. You can't wait until after the kindle servers are taken offline. Thaumaturge.
