You think the primary difference is the names of the gods? I mean, that's a difference but it's a difference that every string has.. I really wouldn't call those the key differences 😅

I'd compare it more to Greyhawk than Forgotten Realms... But I also wouldn't say Greyhawk and Forgotten Realms are super alike.

I don't think something like "Humans, halflings, and half-orcs, paladins, and wizards don't exist in the setting" or "the setting is pulp-action," or "the setting is gothic horror" has any great bearing on campaign length, with the exception that it may have some effect on the players that you...

AFAIK older versions are? Like, he makes v1.4 of a class, v1.3 goes up for free. Something like that? Not sure of everything that's included in his patreon. But I get where you're coming from.

Powered by the Apocalypse, a tabletop roleplaying game engine/system.

Well I didn't just make the number up (I guess I exaggerated slightly, I forgot you're always supposed to round down in DnD)

Their rep speaks for itself, as does their $6.5k/month-earning Patreon 😅 I joined for a month when one of my players was looking at the Savant

I imagine they could fund commissioned art with a kickstarter for a book compilation. Actually they already have a (popular) Patreon, come to think of it.

I'm surprised he's still using gmbinder, it's not really reliable iirc it's no longer maintained. Homebrewery is the go-to, I believe. I've only had practical experience with one of his classes, the Savant. The PC was built so the party basically never failed skill-checks :'D

This cover was so great that I picked a copy of the magazine up on eBay years ago. Wonderful piece.

New one looks cool. Old one was cool. My only "disappointment" would be how small it is. The old one's dimensions: Measures 32-inches tall x 24-inches deep x 18-inches wide The new one, we only have "12 inch" to go by. Presumably that's the largest measurement, so it's almost 1/3 the size? I...

I'd probably look at reskinning stuff from both A5E and VRC. If I was looking for inspiration, I would look at the d20 modern books from the 3e era- they had quite a following and A5E definitely reminds me of 3e in some ways.

Yeah I think OP needs to refine their question a bit more if they want any level of understanding. I alter the crap out of a lot of premade adventures as well, but I took their question to mean "do you run without anything premade? or do you use premade adventures?" Cuz I think anyone running...

A5E berserker is so good it's really not in the same class as any other class, from what I can tell- but I've been disagreed with on that point (some say it's the fighter).

I do both... Not sure where to weigh in on the poll 😅 edit: If I average it, I think at this point premade adventures make up the majority my campaigns.. so I voted appropriately.

I wasn't trying to gotcha you, just replying to the other poster :) And like I said, create food n' water is heavily nerfed from the 5e version, which provides food and water for !fifteen! people. A5E creates enough for two or three, since its text suggests you're sacrificing one supply...

Goodberry's the obvious 5e spell that makes food unnecessary, while also providing on-demand healing.. as a 1st level spell! Available immediately! A5E makes goodberry provide healing, but it doesn't give days nourishment like the 5e version. A5E has create food and water but that's a 3rd level...

Oh hey, that's new to 5e24. Cool, they actually did something there! Going on 5e14, the relevant text is: Bag of Holding: Retrieving an item from the bag requires an action. Handy Haversack: Retrieving an item from the haversack requires you to use an action. When you reach into the haversack...

So, funny thing, with 5e's wording the haversack is almost a worse bag of holding- you need to reference the haversack to realize that while retrieving something from BoH is an action, you can't just grab whatever you want out of it easily, because that's what the haversack does :'D
