While I think objectively, Rise of Skywalker is a worse movie, I actually voted for The Last Jedi. To me it marks where Disney Star Wars went off the rails and the fandom was torn asunder in a way we hadn't seen since the prequels hit. I don't think TFA is a great movie by any stretch, but it...

I'm just a demi-lurker, but I'll give it a go... D&D - 1981 (Purple box basic set) Star Wars - 1977 Earth sea - Still have never read to this day. H.Potter - 1999 Magic The Gathering - Whenever it first came out, but naturally I didn't try it until after all the black-border cards had been...

So this thread is inspired by "Failed Campaigns"... but, naturally, the opposite! The idea here is to post about a campaign (or series of games) that you didn't actually think would work out, but somehow, against all odds, it did! Or just a campaign where something unforeseen and amazing...

Another Vampire the Masquerade failed campaign. Early pandemic I had started up my first go at it with the new edition, and it worked out pretty well for almost a year. We put the game on pause after some real world stuff interfered. Post-pandemic I started it back up, but could only get half...

Excited about this! @Nixlord , apologies if this has been answered already (but I couldn't readily find it), but will this be a separate purchase in Roll20, or made available to those who own MM-EX on Drivethru... or other?

Much appreciated! I may take a note from the Dread Knight and use the warlock spell points for exertion, that way there's not an extra resource to track. I'll have to check out your Eldritch Blackguard tradition too!

This is really cool! Was the "Eldritch Blackguard" combat tradition another Maneuver set or did that morph into Arcane Knight?

So my wife's favorite class of any edition was 4th edition's Swordmage, namely with its themes of hopping around the battlefield dragging foes around, and drawing enemies' ire away from companions. Since switching to 5th Ed, there have been some options that get us partway there but end up...

Yes, I 100% agree with you there. I've probably reread Issola 4-5 times.

Toward the second half of 4e's life, my group did a giant homebrew hack to the game engine with all of our preferred tweaks. We called it "Franken-Fourth." It ended up being our very own 4e-heart breaker. This was probably way too extreme for most 4e fans, but I thought I'd toss this out there...

Fascinating! Was this an rpg or more like a 'choose-your-own-adventure' type books? (1987... very early in Brust's career too)

"Dee" better Artificer naturally. And totally De-Ogl-ified!! ;):p (Please don't hurt me Morrus...)

I'll throw in another vote for Iain M. Banks' Culture novels. It would be one of those books I might not ever play but would make a fascinating read. I'd also enjoy seeing a book or even supplement for one of my favorite fantasy settings: Steven Brust's Vlad Taltos series. (Almost voted...

Well only speaking for myself, but I've hardly heard a peep about Golden Vault, so I have no real clue what's going to be in it. I forgot it was even a thing until this poll.

Throwing my 2 coppers in as well... 1. The tools website is quite robust and you can navigate to each adventuring class' page and step through all the features pretty nicely. There's a character builder tool as well. Without any computers at the table, it might be a challenge going with pdf's...

I voted Planescape, as I've been running a continuous Planescape campaign since the days of 4th edition, but at this point (with the thin Spelljammer book format and everything happening at corporate heaven) let's call it morbid interest. I do collect miniatures, however, so if there's a cool...

In my conclusion, I told them how they had broken 10+ years of trust in their stewardship of D&D in a matter of days, and how that trust would be nearly impossible to return. I went on to add that if they only went back before that, they would see that the brand-name wasn't strong enough to...

If I may, I'd like to make another feature request: Currently, under Exploration Knacks there is a relatively new button "+Add" that creates segmented knacks. Could we get the same button/feature for Features and Traits? I'd love to divide them up among class features, feats, etc, etc, and it's...

I'm also not familiar with Midnight, but I've been using A5e seamlessly with official D&D content/adventures, Kobold Press adventures/monsters, some stuff from Monte Cooke, and a smattering of other 3rd parties.
