@lh3 welcome to the boards. I have been doing the same with having a potion as a bonus action and roll, or as an action and get full HP from it. It has been mostly spending the action to get the full amount over needing to use a bonus action myself. I'm wondering now with 5.5 out if things...

Sometimes things suck all around and strangers, or quasi-strangers might be better or worse to talk to. When my do got cancer a few years ago, I told the wife that we spend hundreds of dollars on the dog and thousands on the kids. Sometimes ones financial situation is taken into account when...

@Ranger Aarakocra welcome to he site, sounds like a cool idea but a heavy lift. I like the spell-fail chance by level of spell. One issue is that you are adding another roll(s) every time someone uses an action. This tends to slow things down. If the payoff is worth it, then go for it...

I was thinking that the author might have been part of that British D&D nonsense back in the day. It might have been a natural slip.

Found the culprit, unless we are blaming the editors. I'm more interested in the XP totals and how you get different amounts for killing or defeating or retreating.

Dice are always cool. Maybe a HeroForge gift card. I give to the local Veterans shelter myself as they always need socks and t-shirts.

I was thinking this when reading some of the other posts. I have players that are now focused on the monsters and not listening when I tell them about the high ceiling with the shadowy alcoves. Then when spiders jump down, they are all- what the heck, you never told us that.

Time crunch? Should it all take place in one day, or each dungeon needs to be completed in one day. Might depend on length of plot and size of adventure. Smaller dungeons or larger? I'm more a 5-room person since my group only gets to play for a few hours at a time. A larger dungeon might...

I always thought this was the gold standard. 4e Dungeon Delve with its short adventures that had a map and each encounter on a page with statblocks to prevent the need to go anyplace else. They were short and minor quests, but the layout was great for me.

A bit like politics, in that there are examples found at both ends, but most are in the middle someplace. I find more use from short adventures that are easy to drop into my existing campaign. This means that I do not need much backstory on why the dungeon is there or who built it 1,000...

@thee_silvery_bard welcome to the site. Hope you get some people that like this. I have never played any games online and find that I'm too cynical to click on random sites. Sounds like it could be a good time.

I like the Maltese Falcon, but do not know much more about the genre.

But wait until episode 7 and we redo the plot, but with a whole death planet.

I miss the thread of the poster that was painting the old Dragon Magazines covers.

Seems a little late to the party to have a video introducing the two new FR books heroes and Adventures. I guess they came out a couple weeks ago and we are more up to date in this site, so maybe. I thought this might have been about reading books coming back. Then, I wondering why there was...

I had a rogue that would only attack a monster if another PC was already fighting with it to gain advantage and would flee if by himself. This may have left the people in the back row out to dry once in a while. Throwing it out as a phrase is a bit like throwing out railroading as a phrase...

Didn't we just have a thread about D&D being so great and that it helps kids with autism and soldiers with PTSD and stuff like that. Then, D&D is the devil and stealing kids again. C'mon. It is a tool that can be used and pushed to show one angle or another depending on who is talking.
