    Ah, okay. I'm used to previous versions of the MM giving a handful playable options. Thanks for the quick answer.

    I guess not yet, but do we have any idea what will have playable options in the new book?

    What are the primary reasons your players reject other systems/settings/games?

    My group and I have largely always been D&D players. From 1st edition in the 80's through 2nd and 3rd. In that time we did dabble with the likes of Vampire, Call of Cthulhu, Star Trek and Star Wars but we always came back to D&D as the game we loved. We hated 4th and what was done with it, so we...

    Do you gaming groups that only play on system?

    I've played and GM'ed more game systems than I care to remember in my decades of role-playing. The last 15 odd years we've been primarily a Pathfinder 1st edition group. Right now I am DMing a D&D2024 campaign on alternate Sundays. The other Sunday I'm playing in a Call of Cthulhu game. I know...

    D&D General Sandwiches should exist in your fantasy world!

    A sandwich being something nice to eat between two slices of bread already exists in my world. I didn't need an Earl of Sandwich to put them there either. :)

    D&D General Recommend me a somewhat contained setting

    The City of Bard's Gate by Frog God Games, It richly details the city of the same name, the surrounding wilderness and has more than a enough plot hooks and adventure concepts to last many campaigns.

    I am surprised I am still excited for Daggerheart

    Unfortunately I lost interest in running the game after the third playtest revision changed enough that I didn't like what I was seeing, and I just jumped back on the D&D 2024 bandwagon. However, one my players really took a liking to the game during playtest and has decided to pick it up on...

    D&D General Poll: Did you watch the D&D cartoon when it was new?

    Yep. I was about 9 when it came out on UK TV and it was part of what got me interested in D&D (Fighting Fantasy books and Mazes & Monsters the other). I have the DVD collection of the cartoon on my shelf as well.

    D&D General How Often Should a PC Die in D&D 5e?

    I'm not the greatest at wording things in a written forum style, so apologies if it wasn't as clear as it should have been.

    D&D General [ART THREAD]Your Personal Favorite D&D Art For a Monster

    That's it! You star! :cool: I know it's not the greatest piece of D&D art out there but it was so weirdly inspirational to me starting out with D&D.

    D&D General [ART THREAD]Your Personal Favorite D&D Art For a Monster

    Despite a Google search I can't find mine. It was from the original basic D&D Creature Catalog book and was a simple B&W drawing of an aquatic beholder (an Eye of the Deep to use now). When I got that book as one of my first D&D purchases as a young teen, that particular picture sparked my...

    D&D General How Often Should a PC Die in D&D 5e?

    I'm not saying that a character I play should never die, just that I wouldn't want it to happen. If it does, then it does. No issue there.

    Monster Manual Suggests Changes Are Coming to Some Playable Species

    I find it interesting that they have made such changes. I was wondering if when the new Monster Manual drops, that there would be some potential playable races in there. Seems the expected options, such as goblins, have might not be possible.

    D&D General Players: Do You Care From Whence Your DM Gets His Monsters/Challenges?

    Doesn't bother me so long as the encounters are fun, fair and balanced.

    D&D General How Often Should a PC Die in D&D 5e?

    As a player, I don't ever want my character to die, but I want the fear that it might happen. The fear generates suspense and excitement but an actual character death is just disappointing. As a Dungeon Master, I only want (and want is not the right word) one maybe two character deaths per...

    D&D 5E (2024) DMG 2024: Is The Sandbox Campaign Dead?

    Personally, as both Dungeon Master and player, I've never been a fan of sandbox campaigns. Given the choice, I'd always go for a standard fleshed out campaign, in the same way that Paizo do their adventure paths for Pathfinder. Players get their agency but both sides of the screen know there is...

    D&D General Your Character Died! Who's Fault Was It?

    I don't remember the last time a character of mine died as it must have been well over a year ago (my last PC survived the entire campaign to retire at 20th). Normally though I would say it's just the luck or bad luck, of the dice rolls rather than anyone's fault. But there are plenty of past...

    D&D 5E (2024) How Important Is The Lore

    My group stopped with D&D when 4th was launched. We moved to Pathfinder and have been there for the last 15 years. Coming back to D&D now, a lot has changed. So much of the D&D lore that was part of 1st through 3rd, and even then 3rd did fiddle a little bit with things, has changed. Some of the...
