    D&D 5E (2014) D&D Next: Let's discuss it's mass multimedia goal.

    One thing that's always surprised me is how WotC hasn't attempted RPG rules/setting products for Hasbro's other, more popular properties: GI Joe Transformers My Little Pony Magic: The Gathering These all have sizable followings, most have comics, cartoons, toys, etc., and I've seen fan-written...

    D&D 5E (2014) Art in 5e...?

    (DiTerlizzi derail in progress) So is this the appropriate thread to show off the prints Tony signed for me at Gen Con in 2000? (framing my Adam Rex "Wrath of Manshoon")

    D&D 5E (2014) Art in 5e...?

    Yeah, WAR can be really hit or miss for me, but that's definitely one of his better pieces IMO.

    Pathfinder 1E So the question is... why is pathfinder selling so well?

    Maybe I should've phrased that better. The people actively participating in the types threads OP is citing are a tiny fraction. What is it, 30 people tops? Usually they boil down to a half dozen people arguing semantics after page 10.

    Pathfinder 1E So the question is... why is pathfinder selling so well?

    To address OP's question (and some of these were already mentioned): It's human nature to want to build on/improve things you like. If people *weren't* arguing about Pathfinder, I would find it more odd. I'm a diehard 4e fan and I know it has plenty of flaws, so I strive to fix them. Even...

    D&D 5E (2014) Does 5E avoid the overloads of previous editions?

    Give me lots of crunch-light mini-setting books like the Neverwinter campaign guide. God, that thing is fabulous.

    DDI and Essentials

    The Monster Vault is a superb product, probably one of the best produced for 4e. Everything about it is better than the MM1. I'll second the suggestion to give DDI a shot, at least for the magazines. The Compendium is essential for me, as well. I stopped bringing books to sessions about 5...

    Pathfinder 1E So what do you think is wrong with Pathfinder? Post your problems and we will fix it.

    I think "magic in the traditional sense" implies supernatural things going on. Thus, "not magic in the traditional sense" means the opposite. IMO the martial power source's abilities are extraordinary, but not supernatural. I believe this thread has branched off on this tangent because someone...

    Pathfinder 1E So what do you think is wrong with Pathfinder? Post your problems and we will fix it.

    Hey guys, it was posted on both page 39 and 40 of this thread.

    Pathfinder 1E So what do you think is wrong with Pathfinder? Post your problems and we will fix it.

    Some people are going to point to that first sentence and interpret the martial power source as magic, some are not. Personally, I've seen people demonstrate extraordinary, unbelievable abilities IRL, but I don't claim they're magical.

    D&D 5E (2014) Dreams of the Red Wizards: Dead in Thay (spoilers allowed)

    Do these pdf-only modules have 4e stats like the print modules?

    Alternative Homebrew Magic Items

    Post your unique magic items!

    Characters in my FR Neverwinter campaign are starting to acquire some rare weapons. So far the majority of the items in this campaign are homebrewed or houseruled in some way. Here are three of the more interesting ones. They are designed for 4e, but shouldn't be too hard to adapt to other...

    D&D 4E Ran a 4e combat last night... with over 200 combatants.

    I think the biggest thing I've run under 4e was a battle last summer in the Ashes of Athas campaign. Made some custom mekillot and inix tokens, and both levels of the argosy are shown. I'll spoiler the rest since it has info relevant to that adventure series: For the regular guards I...

    Pathfinder 1E Pathfinder outsold D&D by 2:1 in 2013

    I'm assuming this includes miniatures, maps, and adventure modules? I buy a lot of those items from Paizo, but don't play Pathfinder. I imagine there's others in my situation. I hope nobody's using these numbers in a "PF vs. 4e/5e" popularity contest.
