    D&D General 50 Years on a Single Chart - Redux

    It’s funny to see that little B/X box, as it was such a huge seller.

    D&D 5E (2024) How you going to roll... 5.24 into your game(s)?

    Ending my current campaign soon, starting a new one in September . 24 PHB only player facing book allowed. Then a small amount of hand waving and patching until the other books show up.

    D&D General 50 Years of D&D On a Single Chart

    Essentials was a stand alone game. You could mix and match stuff across the two (you really had to use the essentials monster book) but that was not unique to 4e.

    D&D 5E (2014) Does anyone play 5e Perception rules as written?

    Disad in dark I use. Passive perception I don’t really use. But often it’s a normal check. Sometimes perception checks take place with a light source, sometimes they are based on sound. Sometimes it’s investigation. But perception is certainly a major skill.

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook Reveal: "New Wizard"

    This version has featuritis. Also, spell breaker broken? Edit: by version I mean the 2024 one, not just the wizard.

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook Reveal: Shape of "New Druid"

    When did I start? What does this have to do with the preview? Did you watch it? Don’t blame me, blame WotC.

    D&D General The Greyhawk Pantheon: How Greyhawk Approaches Deities (& Demigods)

    That’s perfect. Who knew how much the art added! But the write up’s are the same, and they are whacky…

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook Reveal: Shape of "New Druid"

    Their loosing me again. Who would pick warden…when there are funner ways to melee? And why not just make wild shape a spell? And why, if the class was already too complicated, keep adding things?

    D&D General The Greyhawk Pantheon: How Greyhawk Approaches Deities (& Demigods)

    I also wonder if all the information in the original dragon magazine articles was republished in the box set? I don’t think (all) the art was, maybe not all the full write ups.

    D&D General The Greyhawk Pantheon: How Greyhawk Approaches Deities (& Demigods)

    The gods did walk Oerth, and several of them were trapped in Castle Greyhawk-itself created by the mad demigod Zagyg. Along with the demon lord Graz’zt. Until some adventuring PCs set them free!

    D&D 5E (2024) 2024 Player's Handbook reveal: "New Warlock"

    Slaad tadpole for the win! Definitely my favorite so far. Barbarian was a low point, This might make up for it.

    Pace and Progress in your game.

    One guess: The DM does think they are ready for the “main” part of the campaign yet. So they keep the trip going. A lack of preparation and confidence, sometimes combined with grand intent, explains a lot of DM issues I have encountered over the years.

    D&D 5E (2024) Check Out The New Map Of D&D's Planes!

    There are some cracks and some stuff sticking out, not the same.

    D&D 5E (2024) Check Out The New Map Of D&D's Planes!

    My main problem with the new one is that it doesn’t show depth, while being 3D. What’s the point of that?

    D&D 5E (2024) PHB 2024 Creature Reveal: Sphinx of Wonder

    That is a really good sidekick.

    D&D 5E (2024) What's the future of Xanathar and Tasha? (+)

    Agree that they will be replaced. Maybe by 1 player focused book.

    D&D General Millennial D&D (+)

    We are talking about Millenials, not Gen Z? Leave 5e as it is, since from everything we know they totally love it. Edit: did not see the second “funny” post. So no, not about gen z. Middle age people these days!

    D&D General [+] Tell me about Greyhawk

    The pulpy sword and sorcery home to (almost) all the best adventures.* *Except those set in the Known World.

    Ken Burnside on how screwed Asmodee is

    Productive assets (especially IP) can generally survive bankruptcy. It’s the creditors that lose out. If debt was in fact transferred to an unviable company they could sue. But it could get messy.
