    D&D 5E (2024) Tyranny of Dragons 10 year anniversary Beadle and Grimm’s Legendary box set

    Does this mean that there is nothing cool coming out next year? I mean that they must get a heads up or something from Wizards with what the line up is.

    D&D 5E (2024) Thoughts on Bastions

    I like the spending gold idea to speed things up. This mirrors real world rich people getting things by spending gold. I'm still not a fan of bastions just being the player side and the DM should not interfere. My group lets me do anything I want to it though and sometimes things happen.

    D&D General How to Make Travel Meaningful and Interesting

    I think some depends on what I have planned or how much real-world time I have. If I want/need the party to be someplace I might just handwave things. I tend to have something along the road. Last time the party traveled from Westbridge to Waterdeep they tended to wander about. There was a...

    D&D 4E Questions about money & magic items in 4e...

    I see the OP has not been around since 2011. I wonder if they still play 4e?

    D&D General Odd Speak with Dead Question

    I say, good try but no. A door is a piece of a tree like trying to cast the spell on a leg of a dead corpse without having the skull. I get the other spells like talking to a fish and wanting to have a normal conversation with it or a plant and wanting a flower to tell the difference...

    OSR How to make dungeon crawls interesting

    I always liked having a place to rest and a place to talk or maybe get aid. I remember Keep on the Shadowfell (KotS) had an illusionary wall that his some more hallway. Our group found it and was able to take a rest. Maybe there is a secret door that leads to an old shrine or someplace where...

    Dungeons & Dragons Starter Set: Heroes on the Borderlands Review

    I was thinking of having the keep further into the Sword Mountains south of Phandalin where it could be more on the edge of civilization. Phandalin could be a resupply point or safe zone.

    Release [Chaosium] Out now: RuneQuest Adventure Tokens

    I like the style and feel of them. I do not know if I could use them at my table though. There is a lot of busyness and colors that make it hard to see quickly, like some of the new dice that are out.

    D&D 5E (2024) Predict WotC's 2026 D&D releases

    I would like to see a follow-on to the new box set to take the campaign to level 7ish. Something similar to the 3 pdfs that came out for after Icespire Peak box set. I also feel that they will sub out a campaign book to a 3pp to built some tie-ins with other publishers and allow more to the...

    D&D 5E (2024) ADHD Medication Design Challenge: Let's skin this cat.

    I was torn between magic items and spells, but chose spells. I could use some cool bad-guy spells from clerics of evil gods. I recall using the old powers and pantheons books for FR and limiting spells to certain gods. Gave them a flavor- much like 11 herbs and spices.

    D&D General What alignment are you?

    I would think most of the time I'm LG. I obey the law and don't murder-hobo. I'm rather boring I guess.

    RPG Evolution: You Go First

    It was not that dark in the daytime, but at night it was darker than 3 feet up a bulls butt. Not even stars- and someone thought it was a good idea to have a troop movement cross country.

    RPG Evolution: You Go First

    I recall the darkness of the Panama jungle. It took us 8 hours to travel 1 mile up and down and through the jungle avoiding the mud and thorns and rivers. We needed to hold onto the person in front of you to not get lost.

    Dungeons & Dragons Starter Set: Heroes on the Borderlands Review

    I was able to click a video and it plays just now. Don't expect much over the other YouTube videos that came out over the last week. Edit: Still cannot buy the PDF for another hour I see.

    D&D General In Search of ...Fzoul Chembryl, Twice-Chosen of Bane

    It is certainly a better plot than just saying 'magic' or 'clone' like Manshoon. You really put a lot of thought and depth into how he ties in with other regions and factions.

    "Look Frodo, it comes in 40s." Would have explained a lot about Bree.
