    Optimization and optimizers...

    I am very sorry if it came across as disruptive, but I think the term optimization is exactly unclear, maybe I am not in the RPG scene long enough, but for me there are two different kind of optimizations. I play what is best for maximum utility. (e.g. picking the best class/race options...

    Optimization and optimizers...

    Optimized for me means Optimized within the confines of the entire game, not just a class. I.e. you play Bugbear Polearm Master Sentinel Opportunity Attack Fighter because it is broken because there is a 0% chance this happens naturally without browsing Reddit.

    Optimization and optimizers...

    If optimizing wasn't encouraged behavior by default the game shouldn't make optimizing good. Case in point: Swords & Wizardry Complete Revised Does having high dex matter? Yes. Does it matter all that much above a 14? Also no. Here's 5e Do higher ability scores matter? Yes. Do they ever...

    Show your game prep notes

    I already ran this a month ago. I liked the layout but yeah the final rooms are a bit flat. Definitely needed more coloring in in advance.

    Shots in the Dark #1 for Shadowdark RPG Spores from the Undercity by Brynjar Már Pálsson My process is to just retype stuff in my own words and screengrab stuff from the module, add headers for each scene/room and just go from there. After I am done I paint in some blank spaces which I feel are...

    Coming close to dying a final death because the DM doesn't fudge their rolls is hella fun.

    Dark Horse Reveals First Dungeons & Dragons Comic

    She's not "I need a wal-mart scooter to move around" big. Just because you're overweight doesn't mean you can't have muscle. Just look at female rugby players.

    Dark Horse Reveals First Dungeons & Dragons Comic

    Personally I feel like the visual presentation of elf in Modern D&D has been muddied way too hard for it to serve as a commentary to anything. Just look at the elves in front, barring the ears these are are basically humans with non-standard skin-tones but otherwise IRL!Earth haplotypes. They...

    Dark Horse Reveals First Dungeons & Dragons Comic

    I mean the whole point of The "Fallbacks" party is that they are the B-Team, like, it's in the name. (...) so them being atypical is the point. Like this isn't some rainbowwashing fiction where everyone is as quirky as possible to satisfy mental cosplay needs, they're socially not part of the...

    Daggerheart General Thread [+]

    Ran the Quickstart for 3 people. It started out fun. I really like the Connections between the characters and Experiences to drive the fiction. Combat was fun, although my players were struggling a bit with the Popcorn initiative. It is also very mentally taxing to fly semi-blind by...
