    D&D General Would You Buy an RPG Product Printed on a Gutenberg Press?

    Steve Gutenberg is not a heretic. In fact, he made some delightfully entertaining movies back in the day. And recently, he was bravely aiding in evacuating residents during the California wildfires.

    D&D 5E (2024) Anyone else dislike the "keyword" style language of 5.24?

    Correction, you don’t Like it. Now go look up Like in the Rules Glossary.

    D&D 5E (2014) Most Used 5E Rule Book (Besides Core Books)?

    This is a tough call between Xanathar’s, Tasha’s, and The Explorer’s Guide To Wildemount.

    Strange thread behavior?

    I was busy all day yesterday and hadn’t been keeping up with the forums. I jumped on this morning and none of the threads are bold (indicating they have new, unread posts), despite them saying there were recent posts earlier this morning. I verified that I’m logged into my account 🤷🏻‍♂️...

    D&D 5E (2024) D&D Monster Manual (2025)

    I’m still scratching my head as to why they reorganized the MM in the first place. The 2014 listing was perfectly fine. Jeremy mentioned how people didn’t know to look in Oozes for a Gelatinous Cube? Well flip to pages 351-352 and there’s a handy little Index of Stat Blocks which is listed in...

    D&D General A little labor of love for the day after Valentine’s Day, plus a quick survey.

    I also voted for Wonderland 2e24. For some reason, that world always pops into my head when I think of the Feywild. I know it doesn’t quite involve faeries, but it still has that bizarre, manic vibe to it.

    Critical Role To Wrap Up Third Campaign, New Exandria Unlimited Miniseries Announced

    It’s funny you mention that. I’ve watched everything Critical Role has put out (including the Burger King game), but the Monsterhearts video was the only one I couldn’t finish. I guess I’m just too old to deal with high school drama.

    Critical Role To Wrap Up Third Campaign, New Exandria Unlimited Miniseries Announced

    As much as I love Critical Role, this finale felt like the ending to The Return of the King. It easily could have wrapped up several times throughout the 8 1/2 hour episode, but it would suddenly pick back up again and drag on.

    D&D General Drow as in Cow or Drow as in Snow: Where did the Dark Elves Come From?

    Well you need to make sure they’re not feeling DROWsy.

    I also use it for Barbarian's Rage damage bonus and Champion Fighter's crit range.

    D&D General Are You There D&D? It's Me, J.R.R. Tol-KEEEEN!

    I can’t believe this thread is creeping up on 200 posts with no actual original post. I’m starting to think Snarf never intended to post anything and this is all a social experiment.

    D&D 5E (2014) Your Favorite Sandbox Support Materials

    I usually go with a pail and a shovel. Sometimes one of those sifter thingies.

    D&D General Which video game monster have you used in your game?

    Shining Force! I loved that game when I was growing up. I had a Nintendo, but my friend had a Sega Genesis and he had Shining Force, as well as it's predecessor Shining in the Darkness, and another game called Sword of Vermilion. He preferred the latter two, but I was obsessed with Shining...

    D&D 5E (2024) Seeking input re: Dwarves Riding Bears.

    This made me think of my Dwarf Hunter I had in WoW back in the day. He had an Ice Bear from Dun Morog as his animal companion and I named it Orr, both as a play-on-words with “ore” (which Dwarves like to mine) and as a reference to Bobby Orr (one of the greatest Boston Bruins to ever play the...

    D&D 5E (2014) Solasta 2 Announced!!!

    I am so looking forward to this! My daughter and I loved playing the first game together, each of us creating 2 characters to fill out the 4 person party. It scratched our D&D itch when we couldn’t get enough people together to play regular D&D.

    D&D General A Quick Peek At Tiamat In Amazon's 'Secret Level' Anthology TV Show

    That’s not how I ever pictured Wall of Fire. I was thinking it was either Aganazzar’s Scorcher or some elevated Burning Hands. I was never quite sure if Tally was a Sorcerer (using Metamagic) or a Wizard or Pact of the Tome Warlock (due to the book).

    D&D General Folks Who Came Back With 5E: Did You Stay with 5E?

    Yes. I started with 3e, left shortly after 4e was released, and now I’m back with 5e and I’m here to stay.

    D&D 5E (2014) The 2024 Ranger is Actually Pretty Good (with numbers)

    A) Shillelagh isn’t even on the Ranger spell list (no cantrips are), and Rangers will use their DEX for bow or finesse weapon attacks. B) Of the 61 spells on the Ranger spell list, 14 require a saving throw, 2 require making a spell attack, 1 (Cure Wounds) adds WIS for extra healing, and 1...
