    2024 D&D Core Rulebooks Off to "Strongest-Ever" Start for D&D Books

    no that is because WotC changed category from book to game, specifically to not have the steep book discounts

    D&D General What Are Dragonlance's Weis & Hickman, and Actor Manganiello Cooking Up?

    they are, but they are somewhat based on existing peoples, esp. the main characters are pretty well defined ethnically, I never said anything about the rest of Krynn why would he she can have lighter hair, no need to go all out blond imo yep, I would have no issues with the knights of...

    D&D Beyond Releases Free Forgotten Realms Adventure

    the map is the best part of it, the rest could have been more creative by rolling on a good random table

    D&D General What Are Dragonlance's Weis & Hickman, and Actor Manganiello Cooking Up?

    It isn't, we have two natives and two (three with Kitiara) that I said could be hispanic. I only said none of the main cast are black or asian. Also, I am not seeing it as repulsive, Vikings are white, Wakandans are black, the people in Chief of War are Hawaiian, etc. it does not always have to...

    D&D 5E (2024) Mike Mearls explains why your boss monsters die too easily

    I am aware of those ‘reasons’, I don’t believe your claim that they balance the spell good, that is my point, and it is about the power, not just aesthetics

    D&D General What Are Dragonlance's Weis & Hickman, and Actor Manganiello Cooking Up?

    you answered your question, we know what these characters look like from plenty of paintings societies all over the world have all kinds of mixes, why does it need to reflect your specific one? Should Wakanda or Mamoa’s Chief of War be the same mix too?

    D&D General What Are Dragonlance's Weis & Hickman, and Actor Manganiello Cooking Up?

    worked fine for LotR, they should stick to the book here too imo You can have Goldmoon and Riverwind as natives, blond hair or not, and if you want to, make the Majeres hispanic, but asian and black are basically out

    D&D 5E (2024) Mike Mearls explains why your boss monsters die too easily

    nah, the spell is overpowered full stop. I am fine with shelter from the elements, but it should not withstand a lot of sustained damage

    D&D General 'Project Sigil' 3D Virtual Tabletop Finally Laid To Rest

    very few skills will transfer over to Maps. If your job was to make 3d assets for Unreal Engine, Maps is not what you will work on next.

    D&D General Weave Your Tale in the Forgotten Realms With 8 Epic Subclasses (D&D Beyond Article)

    and that guy needs a low level party to take care of things for him? Auril? That is because a tier 2 party is supposed to win the fight, not because CR11 and up is appropriate / reserved for minor gods or more powerful entities

    D&D General Weave Your Tale in the Forgotten Realms With 8 Epic Subclasses (D&D Beyond Article)

    The name is Oath of the Noble Genie, but based on the description Oath of the Elements would be more appropriate imo. “Paladins who swear the Oath of the Noble Genies draw their might from the Elemental Planes”

    I kinda am, I stopped after the first three books because at his pace I have to start over after a new book anyway ;)

    Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay 5th Edition Is Coming in 2026

    I know, but if you read the rest of the text, you should notice that it is only minimally streamlined rather than talking about 'how much they've simplified the system' as you put it

    2024 D&D Core Rulebooks Off to "Strongest-Ever" Start for D&D Books

    anything else would have been a surprise, given the growth 5e experienced over the 10 years

    Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay 5th Edition Is Coming in 2026

    they are not talking about that... "We've been working on it for the last few years, just trying to find where are those bits where we can make it a little bit simpler without losing anything. Where the additional complexity doesn't really give the returns in terms of satisfaction of the...

    I certainly hope for this as a tie-in to the show. Heck, I take it without a show too :D

    D&D General What Are Dragonlance's Weis & Hickman, and Actor Manganiello Cooking Up?

    yeah, they certainly are willing to spend on it, $250M for the license is not cheap, and apparently there are penalties if they make fewer seasons too...

    2024 D&D Core Rulebooks Off to "Strongest-Ever" Start for D&D Books

    no, 3e sold around 500k PHBs, the 1M is 3e and 3.5 combined, according to Ben Riggs’ numbers

    D&D General What Are Dragonlance's Weis & Hickman, and Actor Manganiello Cooking Up?

    that $400M is pretty suspect, I would not put much faith in it. Also, that is still below production cost apparently, of the first season only…
