You would be incorrect. For example, @Nixlord has a series of books that expands the options for races. https://www.dmsguild.com/en/product/214641/character-options-talents-5e https://www.dmsguild.com/en/product/223942/character-options-talents-ii-5e...

If you like DCC, check out the 5E products that Goodman produces. Especially their Original Adventures Reincarnated line. Also Frog God Games would be a good place to look if you are seeking 5E material that emulates older edition fare. Kobold Press was founded by one of TSR's old guard, and it...

One thing that comes to mind is the Kits in the Complete books. It was the main reason were I to run a 2E dungeon crawl that I'd do it without the splats/Complete books.

I'd probably use B/X (OSE) or 2E without any splats.

I'm a little surprised about the number of character sheet packs sold.

To be honest, this is one reason why I've never pulled the trigger on DCC - I'm not into character funnels and like having some attachment to my character from the get-go. Although in 5E alone I've yet to finish a campaign with the character I started with.

I'd probably start with something like this: To me, a mall is essentially a collection of (indoor) shops, most of which also offer a sense of community and entertainment. As @MarkB noted, the historical version is probably a Bazaar. Taking that, placing it indoors, adding entertainers...

Huhn. "Arcane Shadows" mentions the pentad books and that it is a follow-on to "Road to Urik", but I wasn't aware the others weren't related to the metaplot - other than "Forest Maker" and "Black Flames/Black Spire". Unfortunately, my group didn't have a good experience with "A Little...

Didn't they have their focus on establishing a video game arm (and a movie arm...) a couple years back and shut them down amid a bunch of half-finished products? With the news off programmers being laid of left, right and center lately I don't have a lot of faith in any new attempt they're...

I think with as many games, getting the right group who is positively invested makes a huge difference in attitude. Bad attitudes often come with poor play experiences. One of the things about 5E that really made me happy was that I was able to play with my parents (who were in their 70's), me...

5E (I'm not quite sure about 5.5) had a lot of encouraging to come up with your own description of how a certain ability worked or looked. For example, I could easily imagine playing a 5E Barbarian who is a sword rake duelist. His "Rage" wouldn't be a Conan-like battlecry of gusto, but instead...

They were there - "I cast Magic Missile" was certainly one of them. So was "I swing my sword" There's only no narrative component if you don't use it in the first place.

Another whose been playing since forever (Holmes Basic was my first) who really enjoys 5E. It feels like it has the right level of mechanics and story of all the different flavors of D&D I've done over the years. I'm not slavenly devoted to it though, it does have its warts - but it's easy...

On the bridge to Circle Isle, I was thinking there would be a need to move large objects/goods from Lambeth over to Cynelsa in some manner, as I had imagined that the Great Road was the main commerce line into the city. Having the bridge to Circle Isle does create a buffer to Lambeth directly...

It would be nice if they could get Brom back to at least do the cover/alt cover for a Dark Sun book and Tom Braxa to do some of the interiors. I'm honestly nervous about what WotC might come out with for a 5E Dark Sun, but I'll keep my fingers crossed. I'd certainly like them to hew as close...

I don't think it would necessarily be a good fit for every character, though I'm not against non-casters getting some out-of-combat abilities that can give spells a run for their money. There is, however the Magic Initiate feat you could use for the above (for those who want it, or give it...

My thoughts on Cynelsa: Mount Cynelsa: Simply called "The Cynelsa", this towering mound hosts the Ars Rex Magnifica (ARM) at its peak. The only access to it is a switchback road approached from the southeast. The switchback serves two purposes: defense against a straight push up the mound...

Actual young people; I recently had a group of college age players who wanted to do Star Wars, but demanded to use 5E instead of considering WEG or SAGA rulesets. I've had other cases as well.

My (crude) interpretation of the major interburough El lines (in blue) and major street layout in Hackwark.
