    Do Tariffs Apply To RPG Books? Maybe, Maybe Not!

    The problem is, we have no idea if we're going to enter a depression, or recession, or what.

    D&D General [rant]The conservatism of D&D fans is exhausting.

    I would love to hear play reports about both Shadowdark and ACK! Looking forward to it.

    D&D General [rant]The conservatism of D&D fans is exhausting.

    This is really where I am at. I am so, so tired of the D&D community being about complaining constantly about things they dislike, so much more than talking about the things they like. I so rarely even see people talking about the games they're actually playing, I wonder if people ARE actually...

    WotC Would you buy WotC products produced or enhanced with AI?

    I don't think there is any indication at all that the intent is to produce writing or art in books generated with AI. They've repeatedly implied it's DM and Player tools, not a replacement for their artists and writers. That said, I will buy things which are good and that I will use.

    Naw naw naw, come on now. You were not speculating. You said, "The CEO literally stated he is using AI. This isn't even speculation." You even directly told us your statements were not speculation in case anyone was confused.

    I think people are getting a bit carried away on Shadowdark. Sure, it got a lot 13,000 sales. That's great for an indie publisher. But, that's not representative of "older fans." That's barely a rounding error in the quantity of older fans.

    He never said or implied they would write rules and adventures with AI. He said, and implied, AI tools in the hands of DMs and players. At the time I gave a bunch of examples of what he's likely talking about, and how we've been using those things for a while and they're super helpful, and...

    D&D 5E (2014) Adjudicating Hide, You Decide Challenge!

    no. I guess I should have edited that. I just went to a random old map and grabbed the first monsters I saw on that map. I'm not adjudicating this particular encounter, just these particular 5 types of hiding positions. And so far I really appreciate all the input. Most of it is how I would...

    You have to believe Crawford himself is lying. He's not saying "I can't talk about that because I am under NDA" he's giving direct answers that he's leaving of his own choice. You have to assume this is a lie, "It's one of those things where you finished a major keystone creative project and you...

    The simplest answer is he's telling the truth and voluntarily left because he had been there a very long time and had done what he wanted to do with it and wants to go do other things. But that doesn't feed the conspiracy theory that he's lying and WOTC fired him for nefarious reasons.

    Ha, yeah I randomly grabbed a monster to represent "foe"

    D&D 5E (2014) Adjudicating Hide, You Decide Challenge!

    Interesting point. 5.5e did change it. Here is how it now reads: "If you have Blindsight, you can see within a specific range without relying on physical sight. Within that range, you can see anything that isn’t behind Total Cover even if you have the Blinded condition or are in Darkness...

    D&D 5E (2014) Adjudicating Hide, You Decide Challenge!

    That makes sense for when it's the enemy turn. For this set of questions I am only asking if the Rogue qualifies as hidden on the Rogue's turn, since the Rogue is trying to fire off a spell and apply disadvantage to the foe's saving throw on the Rogue's turn using a subclass ability.

    85 views and not one comment? I must have written too much. All this thread is really about is look at the 5 pictures and quickly off your instincts rule on which enemy the #4 rogue has 3/4s cover, full cover, or concealment from.

    D&D 5E (2014) Adjudicating Hide, You Decide Challenge!

    I am about to play a Halfling Rogue (9th level, Arcana trickster) / Sorcerer (3rd level, Draconic or Wild). He is attuned to a Dagger of Blindsight, and has the spells Fog Cloud, Minor Illusion, and Tasha's Hideous Laughter (in addition to many others). I have a lot of questions about how to...

    In real life, Dire Wolves, resurrected from the dead

    I think your opinion is wrong, this is in fact being done with expert Biologists in the field, and you depending on rando person who claims to be a biologist on BlueSky is not sound scientific evidence. The provable biologists disagree with you.

    D&D 5E (2014) Which was the most recent Wizards adventure you consider a classic?

    I can definitely see a TPK against him, particularly if his spells are swapped from what's listed. One advantage we had, briefly, is we landed a Fog Cloud and Silence spell on him, and had him grappled in those fields. For a period he was pinned down and getting hammered. But he managed to get...
