    D&D 5E (2014) How the crap do you explain the rogue's Evasion ability?

    Or, maybe this just a game and it doesn't matter if it's realistic. I'm going with that.

    D&D 5E (2014) How the crap do you explain the rogue's Evasion ability?

    Oh it filled the corridor. The DM was quite clear. There was nowhere to hide except fall flat. Which, apparently, is enough to dodge napalm. I would have been absolutely fine with him ruling it as an autofail save. It made no sense to escape unscathed.

    D&D General How Do You Fix a Campaign? (Rime of the Frostmaiden spoilers)

    I suggested it was probably some very angry knucklehead trout.

    D&D General How Do You Fix a Campaign? (Rime of the Frostmaiden spoilers)

    We just started Rime. The DM said it is HARD and we need to have two PCs. Some of the players made very elaborate backstories, but I thought that might not be good to get too invested yet. My guy had a one-sentence hook. The DM told us at one point there are three CR 11 enemies to fight at...

    D&D 5E (2014) How the crap do you explain the rogue's Evasion ability?

    I had a rogue in a five foot wide corridor, no exits, no cover, nothing, and a mage dropped an 8th level spell on him, filling the entire corridor with napalm. No damage. Thanks, D&D.

    D&D 5E (2014) The Mainstreaming of D&D

    I just get the sense 5e really doesn't want characters to ever die, and tries to thwart that possibility as much as possible. Which seems to please a vast majority of newer players.

    A TSR Announces a Star Frontiers Reboot

    indeed, me and my younger brother have very fond memories of Star Frontiers. I'm hoping the new TSR does it justice!! Hell, if Larry Elmore just does a cool cover I'll probably consider it a success :LOL:

    Shoot Mi-Gos Right in the Convoluted Ellipsoid in Pulp Cthulhu

    I've been wanting to run this a long time now. I have the PDF, but it would most likely be a Roll20 or Foundry game for me. It looks amaaaaaaazing, and the production quality is stellar. Exactly the kind of crazy Indiana Jones sci-fi CoC adventure story I want to tell.

    D&D 5E (2014) 5e - Tales of the Old Margreve (Roll20) Campaign Recaps

    So, much of the campaign by this point is just homebrew. Are you guys enjoying how it's going? We WILL eventually get back to the official Margreve module, but even then it will be heavily modified because the book doesn't have a through-plot; myself and my players developed the plot as we...

    D&D General Non-standard Miniatures

    I used to pick up the Todd MacFarlane line of dragons off Amazon. They were not that expensive and in D&D scale were Huge or Gargantuan. Looking at the prices now, I'm glad I got them when they were relatively cheap. I've also found some fantastic models at Michael's hobby shop, which has a...

    D&D 5E (2014) How the game changes when a DM starts to target downed PC's?

    I have to frequently pull punches on a downed character to not kill a PC. I know what will happen; the cleric will healing word them, and next round they'll be at 50% hit points like nothing happened. The players know full well I'm having some mercy on their character and thank me for it, and...

    D&D 5E (2014) Do you find alignment useful in any way?

    I find it super useful for monsters at a glance. I do not like seeing new stat blocks with no alignment listed.
