    Dragonlance "You walk down the road, party is now level 2."

    If they played the way I play, probably not. They tend to just rush into melee because 5th ed lol.

    Dragonlance "You walk down the road, party is now level 2."

    Again only 3 players but you know what? If either them at level 4 the battles were harrowing. Throwing battles at them meant for 4-6 characters worked out well. I say 3 characters is the magic number for people playing the published Dragonlance adventure with 5.5 ed. If more players play...

    D&D General Why grognards still matter

    Because we can show other ways to play instead of trying to mimic Critical Role. My group started out as a 5E group and t the most fun we’ve had is when I had them try AD&D, BX, and other games/genres.

    D&D 5E (2014) Dungeoncraft Interview with Mike Mearls

    Classic EQ is the only MMO to feel like D&D to me. Which isn't surprising considering it's origin story.

    D&D 5E (2024) Why are you still playing D&D?

    Meat space. If I had a bigger house with a spare room I might try online but as it is I dont have space or privacy.

    D&D Movie/TV Netflix Planning Forgotten Realms D&D TV Show With Stranger Things Producer

    They need to call it Baldur's Gate or Forgotten Realms etc. I wouldn't put D&D in the title. Actually "Forgotten Realms" sounds best. Though still 90s cheesy by way of Hercules and Xena.

    Dragonlance "You walk down the road, party is now level 2."

    3 players this week. Lots of combat. Sleep just seems broken. Hits multiple enemies (warp around heroes) and fail one save to basically miss a turn then sleep. No level/HD limit. Twice the Mage took out an Ogre boss with it. So does a Paladin's smite but whatever. One shotting 22 HP mooks just...

    Evil Drow Statblocks to Return in Forgotten Realms Rulebooks Later This Year

    My issue with them is that they make it a point to establish how much more beautiful their city is and how much better they are at magic etc. They even have the best slides! They can have new and special Drow but they don’t need to spend page time emphasizing how much better they are than...

    Will they also have the super awesome and so much better Ice Drow who are more powerful and beautiful and special than the evil Underground Drow?

    D&D General Drow & Orcs Removed from the Monster Manual

    I've gone my whole non-jewish life only ever hearing about Phylacteries from D&D and Liches. I'll just put this in the Orcs and Drow are based on real people and not Norse folklore no-no bucket.

    D&D 5E (2024) Wrapping up first 2-20 2024 campaign this week, some of my thoughts

    "I gave my players a nuclear missile and they used it to take out the BBE in one round from 50 miles away, why is 2024 so broken?" I think 5E and 5.5E is to easy for the players but I come from official adventures and try to play the game RAW more or less and even I can tell you that giving...

    Wizards of the Coast Releases Day 1 Errata for Monster Manual

    Im sure PDFs will pop up somewhere.... somehow.... The real secret is not being real bothered by losing access to 5.5 ed if DDB goes out someday because other eds and other games exist. DDB seems backed pretty well so I dont see them shutting it down for a good long while. digital is the...
