    IRON DM 2025 Tournament Thread

    When the full ingredient list was posted in the judge's chat, one of the judges said pretty much exactly the same thing. The full quote: "That…looks like we can expect some silliness." I think this absolutely bears repeating. What a wild set of ingredients to come together. I was also going to...

    D&D General Why Enworld should liberate D&D from Hasbro

    I mean, have we forgotten, collectively, the umpteen threads with titles like "If The Barons Daughter Marries The Son Of The Burgomaster, Will The Margraves Brother Rise In Rebellion?"

    D&D General Weave Your Tale in the Forgotten Realms With 8 Epic Subclasses (D&D Beyond Article)

    There was a thread here a few months ago titled "What if the Wind Dukes of Aqaa were Djinn" and my immediate reaction to seeing that thread was "...wait, they aren't?" And as it turns out, no, they aren't, actually. Which seem wild! But yeah, it does seem like "Noble" Genies are on a power...

    D&D General Why Enworld should liberate D&D from Hasbro

    I agree with your point here, but I would ask you to make it without parroting extremely offensive, bigoted talking points. I come to this little corner of the internet to avoid seeing phrases like "delusional perverts"

    General video game discussion

    Yep. The sniper build wasn't nearly as fun in ME2 and 3 as it was in 1, what with the very game-y level design of the newer games, so getting to say "you can't hurt me now, and now I'm immediately right in your face, and now I'm shooting you in the face with my shotgun" just felt nicer in general.
