    The D&D 4th edition Rennaissaince: A look into the history of the edition, its flaws and its merits

    We played this way for a few sessions, since a square is a set measurement (forget what exactly it is off the top of my head) but yes, a powers area of effect can be easily converted on the fly. That worked fine, but yeah the issue became that even if we did that the positioning was still too...

    TSR 5 Fun Facts about the 1991 D&D Black Boxed Set

    I did enjoy this set alot. Though I like the AD&D 2E starter box First Quest more because it came with plastic minis and a very cheesy audio cd.

    D&D General Ray Winninger on 5e’s success, product cadence, the OGL, and more.

    If you had asked me in 1998 who would be the bigger detriment to D&D between Lorraine Williams and the concept of shareholders. I, uhm, would not have picked the concept of shareholders.

    D&D 5E (2024) Rename Purple Dragon Knight to just Dragon Knight?

    If WotC does change the name somebody should put up a new version of Purple Dragon Knight based entirely around Prince. Like, your level 3 ability is to ride a motorcyle in the rain with a ruffled blouse.

    Dungeons & Dragons Comments On Possibility of Future Movie Projects

    Considering Hasbro is decreasing their toy production (outsourcing a fair amount of what they used to make themselves to others) and wanting to transition to being an "IP company" you kind of have to make more D&D shows and movies. So not really surprising. When these also inevitably fail, it...

    Dragonlance "You walk down the road, party is now level 2."

    Well, that didn't end up so well for me right after leaving the vault in Fallout 1, but I get your meaning. I'm also an exceptionally unskilled individual.

    OSR OSR game with more dangerous magic

    Both are really good for classic sword and sorcery they do a good job of replicating Vance and Leiber respectively. If you like DCC and like either of those authors it's pretty much a no brainer purchase.

    The D&D 4th edition Rennaissaince: A look into the history of the edition, its flaws and its merits

    Yeah can't stand Reynold's dungeon punk thing. Which is too bad, back in the day he drew a 40K comic that was pretty cool. Unrelated 5E art thing I can't stand. Nobody is ever looking at each other. Seriously. Go look at Van Richten's Guide to Ravenloft and explain those sight lines to me.

    ENnies To Ban Generative AI From 2025

    But the new Chinese AI just made all the other AI companies lose a ton of value and now they're saying a bunch of venture capital firms might be in trouble. WHO ARE WE TO ROOT FOR

    The D&D 4th edition Rennaissaince: A look into the history of the edition, its flaws and its merits

    I think the 4E art direction was all pouches and no soul. I will expect your formal invitation to a duel at sundown promptly. I am laundering my finest cravat in anticipation.

    D&D General Ray Winninger on 5e’s success, product cadence, the OGL, and more.

    What classes would be left? In 5E pretty much every class uses magic. There's only a few subclasses that don't at all. Plus, like, the idea of a modern D&D party (An Aasimar, 2 Tabaxi, gem Dragonborn and Larry's Tortle/Sonic OC) is absolutely hilarious in a "horror" game. That's not a critique...

    D&D General Ray Winninger on 5e’s success, product cadence, the OGL, and more.

    And a particular fantasy adventure game, that is magic heavy power fantasy. Like, good luck trying to make a low magic setting work with like, 90% + of the classes as they are constructed. OG Ravenloft understood this. It's not scary when the game is literally about killing monsters and taking...

    D&D General Ray Winninger on 5e’s success, product cadence, the OGL, and more.

    Genuine question: What was changed because of playtest feedback? I wasn't following it super closely but it seemed to me the consensus was that the playtest was pretty much pointless because nothjng changed?

    Well, from the perspective of every MBA at Hasbro who ruins everything for a living, all designs are improved by this.
