    D&D 5E (2014) Players, would you play in a game that only used the 5.1 SRD?

    I certainly don’t prefer to play with that limited a list of options. But, at this point, I just want to play. My current group consists of 3 12 year olds with me as the de facto DM. So if anybody came along and asked me to play in their group, well …… beggars can’t be choosers.

    $1500 - $4000!?!?! My wife would castrate me

    D&D General DALL·E 3 does amazing D&D art

    It’s like when somebody says, “don’t think of an elephant.” What’s the first thing you think about? I’m struggling to not make an “elephant in the room“ joke 😬

    I thought Flesh Golems = Frankenstein's monster

    D&D General other possible elements?

    Then we can have Gas Giants to go along with Cloud, Fire, Frost, Hill, Stone, and Storm. Speaking of which, my 12 yo daughter had a couple friends over last night. One of them asked if Uranus was still a planet and my daughter replied, “yes, it’s still a planet. Uranus is a gas giant.” And...

    D&D 5E (2014) The lazy fix to alchemists

    I’ve never understood why Alchemists can’t make things like acid, alchemist’s fire, and poison (maybe even antitoxin or holy water) on the fly. They’re all “alchemy” related (heck, alchemist’s fire even has it right there in the title). It may not be flashy, but it is a slight upgrade to their...

    D&D 5E (2014) Turn 2 full casters into pact casters

    I would go with Bard for one of them. Invocations could become Performances (songs, stories, poems, dances, tumbling and other assorted tomfoolery). Mystic Arcanum could become similar to Magical Secrets, but for select higher level spells.

    D&D General The core monster lineup across all editions

    Does Mythic Odysseys of Theros not count (because it’s MTG)? That book lists 4 Nymphs: Alseid, Lampad, Naiad, and Oread.

    D&D 5E (2024) Out with the old, in with the new?

    I selected "Pick and Choose," but the option I wanted didn't seem to be there. I guess it would fall somewhere in between "Soft Reset" and "Pick and Choose." Basically, my existing campaigns will continue to use the 2014 material (unless the players really feel like recreating their characters...

    D&D 5E (2024) We’ll be merging the One D&D and D&D forums shortly

    I can't believe I'm old enough to get that reference :cry:

    D&D General Ravenloft: Monsters vs Darklords

    Good thing you edited your post, because my coat just has a Bruins logo on it, which feels highly out of place for a Lovectaft setting.

    DDAL Things I learn from being a DM for 500 Adventure League sessions.

    A very good list, but this is the one that resonated most with me.

    D&D 5E (2024) Do you plan to adopt D&D5.5One2024Redux?

    I figure it’s more of a case of the people that plan on making the switch, don’t feel the need to mention it, while the people who don’t plan on making the switch are incessant about telling everyone that they’re not going to do so.

    I was thinking about that scoundrel the liked to battle while dual-wielding tonfa sticks: Baton Rogue

    D&D 5E (2024) Do you plan to adopt D&D5.5One2024Redux?

    And this thread illustrates the dichotomy of the situation: based on the comments, I’d think the majority of people are NOT going to switch to 5.5. But then I look at the poll results and it’s the complete opposite.

    D&D 5E (2024) Do you plan to adopt D&D5.5One2024Redux?

    After the first UA, I was a big NO. But as additional UAs came out, I moved towards MAYBE, and I think UA 8 tipped the scales into YES territory.

    D&D General As old as D&D

    I'm older than D&D by . . . 3 days. I think. In that video on the making of D&D, I saw the date February 7th being tossed around.

    Chutes & Ladders - it even has the classic ampersand. Or Candyland. Or maybe some kind of Chutes & Ladders/Candyland mashup. Or perhaps Mouse Trap is more comparable.

    D&D 5E (2024) How should the Swordmage be implemented in 1DnD?

    There is a 3pp book called The Korranberg Chronicle: Adventurer’s Almanac that has a Swordmage class in it. I’m not really into Swordmages, but maybe it’s up someone else’s alley?

    D&D 5E (2014) [+] Rangers should have monster fighting spells equivalent to Paladin's Smite spells. Discuss!

    I was thinking about this one in particular: Trollbane - You coat your weapon with a substance to counteract regenerative properties. Your next successful attack does an extra 1d4 acid or fire damage. This substance continues to affect the target each round for 1 minute. ETA: I realize this...
