    D&D 5E (2024) Do you actually like weapon masteries?

    Any reason these couldn't just be fighter-specific feats (perhaps with a feat tree) instead of a different system?

    D&D 5E (2014) Lore & Legends Is An Official Visual Guide to D&D 5th Edition

    Art & Arcana is a great book. But why not, you know, a 50-year retrospective for the 50th anniversary?

    D&D 5E (2014) Christopher Perkins Talks About The Return of Vecna, Venger, & More D&D Villains

    D&D has so many classic villains, many from Greyhawk (and imprted into FR in many cases), that's it's odd the pool is this shallow. Admittedly, in recent years some classics have made an appearance: Demogorgon, Orcus, Acererak, Iggwilv, Tiamat, Strahd. But man, lurking out there ... Bargle...

    Summon: MTG Experts!

    So I decided to bite the bullet and order a starter set and some Commander decks. We'll see how that shapes up, but ti looks like that will get me a lot of different themed cards without any randomness.

    Great, so now I'm picturing a fire-breathing millipede.

    D&D Movie/TV D&D Movie Hit or Flop?

    More of a flip, or perhaps a hop. I do think a D&D movie with a stronger story, focusing less on selling D&D and trying to be a weaksauce Marvel spinoff, could still succeed. Pick a Drizzt novel or do a decent adaptation of Dragonlance. Don't make the main title D&D! Have it stand alone ...

    D&D 5E (2014) Lord of the Rings 5E Is Coming Next Month

    Yet the gamers delved too greedily and too deep. You know what they awoke in the dungeons of Khazad-dum ... shadow, and flame.

    D&D 5E (2014) Lord of the Rings 5E Is Coming Next Month

    I hear there might still be one in the abandoned Mines of Moria. I'm collecting friends for an expedition there to check it out.

    Smaug: Wyvern or Dragon?

    How do envision Smaug from the Hobbit? Do you see him as a wyvern-like two legged dragon (forelegs integrated into wings), as envisioned in the Peter Jackson movies? Or do you see him as more of a four-legged D&D dragon (with the wings as separate appendages)? Or something else entirely? What...

    Another Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves Review

    So we went to see this this afternoon (aside [/old man] When did movies get so expensive? $50 for a matinee with popcorn & drinks?[/old man]). Spouse's opinion: "Meh." Spoilsport. A bit too much fantasy and frivolity for her. In truth neither of us are really Marvel fans, but I do enjoy that...

    Another Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves Review

    So what type of humor is in the movie? My spouse has a pretty narrow taste for comedy. No "stupid" humor (her definition) -- that encompasses both the slapstick and deliberately obtuse, or over-the-top (think Will Ferrell, Jim Carey), cringe humor (Rebel Wilson), and sadly extends to dry...

    D&D General Why would someone that's the heir of both A Very Minor Duke and A Minor Baroness become A Adventurer?

    Teenage rebellion. Rejects being bourgeoisie, wants to be one with the working class to tweak the parents.

    Steampunk Lord of the Rings

    I like that. I'd originally assumed an alternate timeline where the advanced steam/clockwork/magitech development meant that ICE technology never arose. But maybe the elves will fly their failing steam dirigibles into the west ...
