    Harassment At PaizoCon 2017

    Just because what? How about innocent until proven guilty? Is that a good enough reason. In this specific situation enough information is out there to make a pretty intelligent decision but that is not every situation. If Person A says he/she was assaulted the automatic respond should NEVER be...

    Darkest Dungeon as a gaming group format

    Darkest Dungeon is a DnD style game for the PC. It hearkens back to modules like Temple of Elemental Evil where the adventurers are run through a meat grinder. It has multiple dungeons you can select to send your party through. I was thinking this would be a great format for a gaming group...

    D&D 5E (2014) DM introducing new elements to PC background post-session 0

    Simple answer is if I am the DM then it is my table my rules. Of course I do not act on that as a jerk, but in reality a player can create a background but he did not chose every person he was related to, associated with, encountered throughout his characters life. At some point the career...

    D&D 5E (2014) Barbarian Archetype: Path of the Hulk

    Hardly a game breaker but one thing here I dislike is that at 3rd level a Hulk barbarians fists will do more damage than a monks fists. To me that seems wrong. No one at any level should do more unarmed damage than the monk class.

    D&D 5E (2014) Thoughts on this article about Black Culture & the D&D team dropping the ball?

    Obviously you missed the sarcasm in my post. Reminds me years ago of a guy in one of my gaming groups. He was black, his character was a Paladin who was black, oh and he had a giant afro per his description. That was the extent of his background as a black character, skin color and kinky hair...

    D&D 5E (2014) Thoughts on this article about Black Culture & the D&D team dropping the ball?

    Because having a black man (or woman) born and raised in Chicago is going to guarantee that certain stereotypes will never happen if they are involved in the work. Sent from my SM-T820 using EN World mobile app

    But they didn't ask how much research was done. The only question and was the color of skin.... Sent from my SM-T820 using EN World mobile app

    D&D 5E (2014) Thoughts on this article about Black Culture & the D&D team dropping the ball?

    Quick question here. What is "Black Culture"? Pretty racist to use such a blanket statement. Africa is as culturally diverse as any other part of our world. I also want to know why anyone thinks it is important that a"person of color" be used on TOA. Does the color of one's skin make someone...

    I was not being defensive. I was pointing out the flaw in his argument and telling him to put up or shut up. Sent from my SM-T820 using EN World mobile app

    D&D 5E (2014) Thoughts on this article about Black Culture & the D&D team dropping the ball?

    I think that DnD is about having fun and relaxing. It is NOT about politics and being PC. If the author doe not like the content being created then the author should get off their butt and create some content. Put your money where your mouth is and write a sourcebook based off just as one...

    D&D 5E (2014) The Multiclassing Poll!

    Not to sidetrack the conversation but if they had asked would you have allowed them to replace those classes with new selections or required then to stick with it. Sent from my SM-T820 using EN World mobile app

    D&D 5E (2014) So...Volo, Xanathar...who's next?

    Save Elminster for the garbage can. So very tired of him. I know he was Ed's Mary Sue but it has gotten VERY old. Sent from my SM-T820 using EN World mobile app

    D&D 5E (2014) GWM, SS, CEx: updated!

    Only relevant if you play the game exactly as written with no content other than published adventures. Which to me sounds boring as hell. Is there even enough material to play just published without having to replay adventures? Sent from my SM-T820 using EN World mobile app

    Depends on what else they will be releasing throughout the year. The information in a vacuum does nothing. Sent from my SM-T820 using EN World mobile app

    D&D 5E (2014) GWM, SS, CEx: updated!

    What is the cost? How about a negative to all attack rolls, all associated ability checks, all associated saving throws, and all associated opposed rolls. Sent from my SM-T820 using EN World mobile app

    D&D 5E (2014) Power Gamers and Balance - How to handle

    Wrong on a basic level. There is no reason to roll when a player wants to do the physically impossible. Though I have allowed it when an annoying player keeps arguing. "No really I slide my spear into the crack and use leverage to force the drawbridge open" yep go ahead and roll so I can tell...

    D&D 5E (2014) Counterspell - Do I know my foes' spell before I counter?

    Not possible at my table. I say "The Yuan-ti casts a fireball focused on the cleric, it will catch the rogue, paladin, and sorcerer." If anyone says anything other than "I cast counterspell" it is too late and the spell is cast. A reaction action is not something that can be debated at the...

    D&D 5E (2014) Homebrew Cleric Domain: LGBT Domain (Positive & Respectful)

    Not sure if you are being serious or sarcastic here. Overall I think you are being pig headed, offensive, and rather ignorant to boot. Sent from my SM-T820 using EN World mobile app

    D&D 5E (2014) Kenku - Poorly thought out race no matter how cool

    Per the PHB "most spells require the chanting of mystic words, the words themselves are not the source of power, rather the particular combination of sounds with specific pitch and resonance, sets the thread of magic in motion." So the verbal component is most certainly the speaking of very...
