    D&D 5E (2014) 5e's name dropped (as in mentioned) classes

    I am trying to update some people in my playgroup about info for 5e as it comes out. One of the things I posted for them was this lists of classes that have been name dropped specifically: Cleric, Fighter, Wizard, Warlock, Barbarian, Bard, Druid, Psion, Monk, Assassin, Paladin, Ranger, and...

    2011 PC Bodycount Thread

    Last session had the first death in my ongoing 4e game. The Star Pact Hexblade decided to be heroic for some reason and ended up being torn apart by the big bad and having a warehouse dropped on him by the Swordmage who was running away from said big bad.

    WoD for Dark Tower Campaign?

    Don't forget Geist, which is sort of the nWoD's version of wraith. For a Dark Tower game I would recommend the World of Darkness core book, some of the antagonist books (based on where you want to focus), armory, and Hunter... Mainly Core book and Hunter.

    Eberron inconsistencies

    It's not that it is an indefinite status quo, it is that there are reasons in place as to why it is the current status quo. PCs, however, are meant to shake up the norm in the setting. The questions about House Orien is a perfect example of this. There is a reason why the conductor stones have...

    Need some defender help

    I think I have decided on either a shadar kai tempest spiked chain fighter or some sort of arena fighter, just not sure which.

    Eberron inconsistencies

    I was always under the impression that house Lyrandar has the magic ships. Orien has the rail. For the cost of magic items I think it is possible for them to afford it and to have someone in the house who can do it, I just don't think it would be cost efficient. (Although I haven't looked at...

    Eberron inconsistencies

    1.) Teleportation circle is a 9th level spell, meaning for Eberron purposes it would be so stupidly rare and expensive that it just isn't feasible for House Orien to set up that sort of service. As for the PC's setting up shop after getting to the level to cast Teleport, it is important to...

    Need some defender help

    Yesterday one of my players surprised me by suggesting that he would be willing to run some games in my urban slightly sandbox game so I can have a chance to sit on the other side of the screen. Because of the way the games must be scheduled the swordmage who is the only defender will be out...

    Optimal Number of classes?

    I kept the initial question broad because I wanted a wide range of opinions in the hopes of furthering the discussion and refining my own ideas. Obviously there is no concrete answer beyond each person's preferences. Personally I always found it odd to have very specific archetypes along side...

    Optimal Number of classes?

    After reading AeroDM's http://www.enworld.org/forum/general-rpg-discussion/307649-headed-rune.html thread and blog I found myself returning to some of my own projects. This in turn brought me back to a question I have been thinking about, In a class based system like D&D is it better to have a...

    Headed for rune

    I just wanted to chime in here to say that after reading through some of your blog entries I liked the logic behind your design, and much of it (though not all) lined up with some of my own ideas that I have been kicking around.

    Unusual Vehicles for Urban Heroes

    I'll see your hotdog car and raise you a ChickenCar! Seeing that thing drive around my home town was always surreal.

    What fake gaming terminology does your group use?

    Friend Folder- The name given to the Fiend Folio by the player of our recurring fighter with a long sword. It has stuck ever since.

    Ravenloft-Your Experiences

    Played in a AD&D 2e game of Ravenloft for many a moon and also ran a few one shots. When 3rd Edition dropped we switched over, but jumped back into the Mists once the books came out. For 3rd edition I ran a campaign based in the western sea, but mainly played in a few different long term games...

    Annoying Player HORROR STORIES!!!!

    In the small town where this took place if you didn't game at someone's house, then you simply didn't game. There are no local gaming stores or such alternatives. The weirdest part is that the guys in the group (who were all at least three years older than me) had been friends from high school...

    Lets see your GAME ROOM.

    Sadly I don't currently have a game room to post, but I was curious if you would be willing to share the dimension of that great game table. I have been wanting to complete a similar project for a while, but never seem able to get adequate plans together.

    Annoying Player HORROR STORIES!!!!

    Back in the age of 2nd edition, our group would occasionally play at a friend's grandparents house because they would let us use their pool house. The GM had set up shop on a pool table so he could spread out his books and note while the players had a few various small tables. One player, who...

    Non-supernatural horror

    I know some genre conventions differentiate Horror by the fact that the supernatural is involved, where as Thriller would be the equivalent if it is not supernatural. Specifically this is coming from the 24 hour film project's genre judging guidelines, but I know one of my creative writing...
