    What constitutes a "hit" in your mind?

    Nah, if it were poisoned in 0D&D through 2e and you make your save it narratively missed, no effect from the poison (3e has the weird circumstance of the second save 10 rounds later). Which is why clerics and thieves are a bit better at poison saves in OSR type D&D, they have more blessings of...

    D&D General Eberron - why don't you run it? [-]

    I like a lot of generic D&D pantheons, Greyhawk, Forgotten Realms, Krynn, Golarion, the real world and fictional ones from Deities & Demigods/Legends & Lore, 4e core, and others. The Sovereign Host specifically just does not call out to me and hook me like those others do.

    D&D General Eberron - why don't you run it? [-]

    I really like Eberron D&D religion. The any alignment clerics, the multiple types like the cool Blood of Vol philosophy, the Silver Flame, gods of the Dark Six, the Three Dragons, the dragon below cults, the ancestor and hero worship, the different sects of druids, etc. I do not care for the...

    D&D General How Much D&D Stuff Is There Anyway?

    I was surprised at how low that actually would come out. I've been playing for over 40 years, so ~ $500 a year does not sound that outrageous, though 10 year old me was not going to be spending $100 in a year on gaming stuff for years to come. That said, I don't think I've even spent $500 on 5e...

    My first thought was that he was thinking Arthur who said "no" which would lead to BK's frustration in that he was beaten to the punch in using him as an alien host medium. Hermit already gifted a lung to another experiment (which seemed like a completely healthy lung to me and not something...

    D&D General Odd Speak with Dead Question

    I generally go with RAW for spells and their limitations unless I am doing something like thematic reskinning (turning spells into high tech effects) or if I think the RAW would be problematic for the game. Generally if they can get interesting uses out of something as written that is cool. So...

    Spoilers Alien: Earth Spoiler Thread

    We did see Nibs rip the jaw off a person and do that threatening super quick move on the doctor. I think they all have the super strength and speed stuff, but I think Wendy is the most comfortable with it and has explored it the most.

    It did not particularly pull me out of the scene. I think it is just awkward for him. While we have seen that Wendy has explored super strength jumping and knowing her strength in holding up the children on her arms and ripping off the paper cutter and such I don't remember seeing the boys do...

    D&D General How Much D&D Stuff Is There Anyway?

    Just for clarity, are licensed things like 1e Conan, 1e and 2e's Lankhmar, and 2e and 3e Diablo specifically D&D books included or not? 3e also had d20 Wheel of Time/Cthulhu/Star Wars/d20 Modern which were d20 but not D&D. I am guessing 3e's licensed out Ravenloft and Dragonlance ones don't count.

    D&D General How Much D&D Stuff Is There Anyway?

    I used to do that for specific things like Greyhawk and Ravenloft. Switching to PDF collection has been great for me on that front. Easier to store and generally easier to access if I want to pull up an obscure older title. Generally cheaper to get as well and my PDF collection now dwarfs my...

    D&D General Why do we color-code Dragons?

    They were found in 2e's Monstrous Compendium Annual 1. They were distinctively color coded by type, but that is generally only indirectly referenced in the type names. There were eight types and two greater individual non typed ones.
