Every game has its own pacing, so the rules shouldn't dictate how much time the short rest lasts. The DMG 5.24 can be on the tune of "the game is balanced to 2 short rests per day. Decide with your players how much game time the characters rest, with an advised standard of 1 hour and a minimum...

You are absolutely right, I expressed myself bad: what I was meaning is that for players, when non in battles, and with a already done character sheet, the game is just talking back and fort, and there are few rules like Skill and Abilities check. Exploration pillar is more "complex" DM side...

When people see my PHB, they think the know the whole book by heart to play the game. Nothing more wrong. Almost all the book is to write the character sheet (abilities, feats, background, equipment, spells). The game is an easy one, with the "combat minigame" (I know, I know) being the more...

Stranger Things is a more bigger hit than Community or Big Bang Theory. AND, in Strager Things, D&D is not a cameo, it's important to the plot: the first series alone has the monster named over an important name. And D&D, as played by the kids, was something that let the curiosity spark (the...

I remember that "scandal", so much true XD

The real need is for dangerous places where the DMs rolls for random encounters, or when time is essentials. I personally use a file with a string of tens of minutes (6 5 4 3 2 1) were I delete a digit every ten minutes in game. You can print this one from OSE (Old-School Essentials Dungeon Time...

This has been published, check it out!

Then I ask: why B/X instead of BE? They are the same game, except something that can be defined as clarifications of the rules, some "satanic panic" revision and, for the revised expert set, the thief ability nerfed. About the people not playing after higher levels: there aren't a lot of new...

Error or not, it's not just the cover, there is also the first internal page. So Amazon have the Tasha files in a format that's viewable, it's not a programming error that uses only the cover. Maybe this was something tested before the Beyond acquisition, that was shelved after WotC got Beyond?

I think the solution is right there. The latest D&D movie taught me that no one gives for grant high level spells: nobody talked about "training the wizard till discover the raise spell" or "let's search for a high level wizard". The single biggest source of imbalance is: you can learn spells...

It's incredible how much low is the price on Amazon USA instead of Europe. And not speaking of translated book, I mean the english ones.

Seen with my players. All of them enjoyed it, only one saying it should have been a little more serious, but still a very good movie. Every person I know who have watched the movie enjoyed it, Rotten Tomatoes gave it a good score. Release date. To me it was only release date. The original...

I think Acererak in DMG cover is one of the most recognizable art of 5E. It's the one that everytime there is a "general public" article about the game, is the one most used. More than the PHB cover and surely more than the MM manual (and that is a Beholder, THE iconic monster from D&D...)

I've started playing D&D in 2020, and mastering some months later. I found that both the starter set and books were lacking in advices on how to run the game. And this is to tell a lot, saying that a complessive 900 pages (PHB+DMG+MM) or the Starter Set, made to teach new players how to play...

The printed book as they are not helpful. They tend to do "Milestone" levelling. And the older had completely wrong values. I started a Tales from the Yawning Portal campaign using XP, just for the old school feel of them. The book says, in the introduction, that running the dungeon in series...

Is me, or at 2:48 you can hear a background laugh? Like a sitcom one :LOL:

Polymorph on a Thinking that every "solo" or "boss" monster should have, by default, "legendary resistance" in the encounter building rules.

I think that a lot of talk is generated by people thinking differentely on what is a "D&D edition" (and not what a "D&D edition change" means). I'll try to explain better: to me a D&D edition are only the base rules: what to do in the three pillars (Combat, Exploration, Social). And, by what we...

The DMG needs to provide tools to new DMs, this is what the Perkins is telling us. So Chapter 8 will be a small setting, to give new DMs a place to put dungeons and cities created by the DMs, until will be ready to create or use a setting. What I noticed, is that he is too happy and secretive...

Hi everyone. Recentely I've seen the D&D HAT movie, and (for people who jumped the spoiler: a movie plot point could be easily resolved by a high level spell, but no one of the characters tought or speaked about that) In metagaming, you know that doing enough adventures, you'll get to level...
