    D&D 5E (2014) How often have you played D&D 5e over the past year?

    You know, I completely forgot about that feature, thanks for reminding me! :) Roger that, PM incoming.

    D&D 5E (2014) How often have you played D&D 5e over the past year?

    Once, with my friends from High School. I can't seem to find any groups around here.

    Is D&D Entering a New Golden Age?

    The above is what I would have said if someone had asserted that D&D might be entering a new golden age, and I think many of my concerns are still pretty valid, but they don't really reflect upon the quality of the game itself. 5th Edition is great, it strikes a good middle ground, and...

    Green Ronin To Publish The Expanse RPG

    I'll pass, seems like Green Ronin can't even finish what they started with Fantasy AGE.

    Using flip mats , prepared battle mats etc

    I use a combination of no maps, dry erase tiles, and parts of locations given, one at a time, to the party mapper which are drawn on index cards with graphing lines. This allows me to use theater of the mind for most things, let the group explore through mapping, and place out large tiles when...

    Take A Look At The Gen Con 50 Museum: First Draft of D&D, First Traveller, & More!

    Very cool! I wish I could have gone this year, but it wasn't in the cards.

    Kobold Press Launch Patreon For 5th Edition Booklets

    I think what I find strange is that this Patreon is going on for Midgard, for 5th Edition D&D when there isn't even a 5th Edition Midgard Campaign Setting.

    Fantasy Flight Games Announces Genesys RPG

    That's how I feel about getting my group to play Traveller (let alone Traveller5), but Genesys looks like it might be worth your wait.

    Pulling the plug

    I felt the same way as the OP, I got rid of my 5E books because I didn't feel like it brought anything new to the table. Part of it might also be that I am less into Fantasy these days and more into Science Fiction, so Traveller gets most of my attention. I'll echo what others have said, play...

    D&D General DMs Guild Classics POD & PDF Wishlist

    Dungeons & Dragons Adventure Game (1999) Still waiting on this one. This was my introduction to D&D and RPGs in general.

    Free RPG Day Distribution

    Yeah, I feel like that type of system is cool for normal events, but it kind of skips past the entire point of Free RPG Day.

    Do you have an FLGS?

    I do not live near a full-on game store. There is what some might call a game store in town, but it is really just a glorified card shop. The store does seem to be branching out into other products like Bolt Action etc, but their RPG support is almost nothing.

    Let's Not Save The World...Again

    The Dark Eye is a great example of a RPG and world where heroes do heroic things, but not everything is on a world-shattering scale.

    What The World Needs Now Is More Gaming Conventions

    I think it would be pretty neat if WotC had a constant article in Dragon+ and on their website where people can submit RPG conventions. Heck, EN World could do a monthly article like that.

    D&D 5E (2024) Mike Mearls “…it’s now obvious how to live without Bonus Actions”' And 6th Edition When Players Ask

    I agree, I was feeling a little snarky, I apologize! 5E is actually my favorite edition by far! :) Oh definately! I agree, I think if any versions of D&D get close to reaching that level of simplicity would certainly be B/X. BECMI flings a little too much extra stuff in the way to confuse...

    The New D&D Adventure Is - Tomb of Annihilation!

    I'm interested in the board games. I might have been interested in the Dungeon Set as well, but WizKids can't just sell that, they have to make it an incentive for their terrible (personal opinion) randomized miniatures model. Oh well.

    D&D 5E (2024) Mike Mearls “…it’s now obvious how to live without Bonus Actions”' And 6th Edition When Players Ask

    Well, I DM a 5th Edition game, but all this debate on action economy reminds me why I prefer B/X and AD&D; let's roleplay, not roll-play.

    Is Tabletop Gaming D&D's "Sideshow"?

    My friend and I watch it every once and a while, I've got it on DVD, and we would make a game of how many animation errors we could spot. I'm pretty sure we were up to 75+ the last time we watched it. *sigh*

    What The World Needs Now Is More Gaming Conventions

    I live in the Kansas City area, as you can imagine, I am at a disadvantage no matter where a convention is held! We do have a local convention called KantCon here that I haven't been to, but I think I'll play in sme 5E games this year, and volunteer as well. I really do feel like you have to...

    The New D&D Adventure Storyline Will Be Announced On June 2nd-3rd

    I just saw this thread, and I'm seriously debating on taking that Friday off to watch this. My wife and I don't have the money right now to go on a real vacation or for me to go to a convention so I might as well use a day on this.
