First, generic fantasy world #36 I far superior to #35. Everybody knows that!
Second, my favorite fantasy world to play in is Critical Role’s Exandria. It used to be the Forgotten Realms, but I found it to be too massive for me. I prefer the smaller, cozier continent of Wildemount, and...
I was curious to know if they plan on releasing just the adventure and maps as a separate product in the future for those of us who don’t need the entire starter box?
Thanks guys, this has been very helpful. We still haven't played yet because we've been beset upon by that most fearsome enemy in all of D&D: scheduling. So far we've just been texting back and forth and I sent her a pic of the Classes chart on page 45 of the 2014 PHB (we're going to play...
I guess it helps to look at another way. Rather than comparing the jump in spell point cost from one spell level to the next, look at the difference between the spell point cost and the spell level. The progression is:
0, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 4
My daughter and I have been trying to convince her cousin to try playing D&D with us. After a bit of hemming and hawing, she finally said yes. But now I'm torn about how to get started with her character.
I've heard the best way to introduce the game to a new player is to just have them dive...
My reason is simple, but boring: I grew up with the Forgotten Realms books and video games so I know it better. After watching Critical Role for several years now, I’ve gotten to know it well so we’ve switched to Exandria.
Korrenberg Chronicle - Psion’s Primer basically converted all the creatures from 3e’s Expanded Psionic Handbook to 2014 5e, including the Blue Goblins, but as a playable race/species rather than a “monster.”
Do they plan on eventually releasing a standalone book with just the adventure and maps for those of us who don’t need the whole boxed set (as opposed to the DDB version)?
Does anyone happen to know if they plan on selling the adventure and maps separately? While I like the idea of the other accouterments, I really don’t need any of those extras.
Waitaminit, if you accidentally didn’t click Gnome, and @Chaltab accidentally did click Gnome, wouldn’t that just even out? (FYI, in majored in Gnome Math in college).
I’m really looking forward to seeing how they handle the changes from the 2014 rules to the 2024 rules. IIRC, they used some 2024 rules during their Australia shows (at least I vaguely remember Ashley using a 2024 version of a spell or something).
Or maybe it’s some sort of Blind Spot situation where Lidda woke up one day naked and covered in tattoos. Now she has to figure out what each of them mean.
There was also a Baldur’s Gate: Dark Alliance II that was a lot like the first one except you callus play 2 player cooperative.
EDIT: Oops, I should have read the other replies first before posting.
I’m sure I’m not the only one here who despises Ability Score reduction. As a concept, it’s sound. But in practice, it’s a real PITA to have to adjust everything on your sheet that relies on the ability affected. Constitution wasn’t too bad because it only affected your Hit Points and...
