    D&D General Self-Defeating Rules in D&D

    Funny story... An adventuring group (low level) of a human fighter, elf druid, dragonborn monk, and a gnome wizard got ambushed deep in a dungeon. The wizard and the druid had been the light sources, but they were unconscious. Bereft of healing, the fighter and the monk had to drag them out...

    D&D General Self-Defeating Rules in D&D

    A minor point: All the "adventures" (patrols) I have been on, the above is pretty realistic. Which is why our adventuring group (squad) would always bring a dedicated trained medic if possible. Just saying its another way of looking at it...

    D&D 5E (2024) NPCs, and the poverty of the core books

    Keep making death saves (i.e. no death from massive damage) until you are healed the amount you went negative.

    Does Your Game Have Random Encounters?

    The encounters aren't random, but when/if they occur may be. :)

    Daggerheart "Description on Demand" a GM DON'T

    My players dont like "description on demand" for things that should be the DM's purview. I.e. ask them to describe whats in the treasures chest. "A staff of the magi".. DM: "Uh, no". But they do like things that they control, like the famous "How do you want to do this?" or "you created a...

    D&D General Thoughts on HD and Blood Magic

    I might need the old "expending a hit die does equivalent damage to your self" rule.

    D&D General Thoughts on HD and Blood Magic

    I am looking at the "HD are a free resource" concern, for sure. My group uses them fairly consistently for healing, so expending them for blood magic may be a cost to far for them. Other groups I've been ignored them, and since there is no effect for being out of them, it would truly be a free...

    D&D General Take A Look At The Class Boards From The New D&D Starter Set

    Wonder how they calculate jump distance?...feet equal to STR "score". Edit: and I still use roll under for a few things.

    I don't think we can judge either, and let the numbers speak for themselves.

    Isn't their vote valid? So it should contribute to the overall score. EDIT: Nevermind, I see it was disscussed.

    D&D General 6E But A + Thread

    Priest spheres were so handy. Now a days (and for a 6th E) I would just say normal list is from the PH, any other "sphere" like spells you have to learn. That way you could introduce a whole slew of shadow spells for the god of shadows, and all the other clerics of the world would not...

    D&D General Thoughts on HD and Blood Magic

    Mine short rest on occasion. So really I need to come up with a reason to use/or stockpile them*, otherwise the blood mage will just go nova. Of course, I would then remind them that they only gain half back on a long rest... *expend them all gain a level of exhaustion?

    Which 80s wargames and adventure games do you still play?

    Talisman 4th edition revised is my favorite. But it recently went out of print, and a few of the expansions i wanted have gone through the roof in price.

    Because I really think people are debating the extremes, I'm just going to repeat this from previously and then let it be.

    I misunderstood and thought it was a 5e overall poll. My bad.
