    D&D 5E (2014) Using "D&D 2024" instead of "5e24"

    rewatching Lord of the Rings

    Heh ... a gifted copy of the remaster blu-ray extended edition trilogy arrived yesterday and I stared watching it today. I've rewatched the theatrical editions a number of times over the years, but it has been 20 years since I watched the extended versions, and I've missed some of the little...

    You used the bull rush and grappling rules? In 3.5? You're braver than I thought.

    Wizard's Duels

    What are the best examples of Wizard's Duels in media? What games best replicate a wizard's duel? I like to think of the duel between Merlin and Mim in The Sword in the Stone -- each wizard countering what they other wizard puts into play. Saurman - Gandlaf in Jackson's Fellowship of the Ring...

    Taun-tauns, of course, are cannibal moose. But then I live north of Canada, so my perspective may be skewed.

    And it didn't even take a convoluted explanation, or even a whole movie to explain, did it?

    Back in your box, Geroge. We know you screwed up the first time because it sounded cool and you didn't know what a parsec is. Just admit it and move one, rather that coming up with some silly convoluted explanation. Carrie didn't believe no one wears underwear in space, even though she went...

    WotC [Updated!] Hasbro Laying Off 1,100 Employees

    Yeah. The only answer I can think of is to only support companies not only whose products I value, but who also have values and behavior I value.

    Sorry and sad for those folks who lost their jobs today, and I hope you bounce back quickly! I know there are "reasons" that this is "best" at the end of the year ... but it sucks.
