    D&D General XP: How Do You Like To Earn It?

    Obstacles/Milestones - I like to have a steady progression of Adventure Acts, with rewards coming as obstacles are overcome and an Act completed Fiat/1983 - year XP rewards can be fun, but XP accounting is meh and sometimes its fun to stay at the same tier forever

    Who Should Gal Gadot Play In The New DCU?

    It didnt? The first Aquaman movie did well financially and got good fan scores. For a while it was the best movie in the DCU (I'd say it still is) As for Gal, I think should be awesome as Talia Al Ghul
