Ran a game online earlier today, one for a different online group on Monday, and a live game for a third group this last Sunday!

Bloodied - We still use it in our games. Short Rest - 1 hour is too long, though in our games we went with 15 minutes (5 minutes also feels too short). More 4e monster-like writeups and skill challenges. I don't see them doing anything this radical in One D&D, but I'd love to see Saving...

For me, the post-endgame Marvel movies weren’t awful, but they were much more mediocre. They became less “must see” events and more like “I’ll wait for streaming.” The only two I really didn’t like were Eternals and Love and Thunder. Black Widow had some good moments but the weak villain and...

Welcome to the forums and to LevelUp! I took a quick look at your K'Tan folk. Here's some observations: I don't think we see a lot of Tiny Heritages! That instantly set them apart. The walk speed of 20 will probably cause them to lag behind their fellow PCs, but I suppose at Tiny size they...

Yeah, sounds like an interesting way to go. I think we got her build figured out for this next campaign, but I'll file that away for future exploration.

Not a fan of EU novels, didn't even read any besides the 'must-read' Timothy Zahn novels which I thought were overrated. Still hated Last Jedi. To each their own, though!

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.
