Attacks might be fine, that is not a full turn. That is just legendary actions. The issue was we were fighting a giant mountain troll that had 6 attacks, moves, and reactions (because 6 players). The image it conjured was of a giant Tasmanian devil zipping about the battlefield. It just didn’t...

Carry the cosmos on their shoulders!

At that level 20+ it really isn’t about immersion in reality (not that meteor storm or a vast number of spells are either)

Yep, there is a lot of fiction where a master warrior can cut the top off mountain - and that is before the ascend to be an immortal! This is mostly Asian (Korean, Chinese, and Japanese) that I am aware off, but they often give it a medieval fantasy setting. Personally I could see this in D&D...

As a player I don’t like a solo who can act after every PC. We tried that once and it just took me out of the fiction. Maybe it can be done right, but I don’t think it works for every monster.

There is lot of fiction where that is true though. Heck, in the Record of the Lodoss War the fighter can do it with a broom! Now, is that D&D? Not low levels, but you get high enough why not!

Start at 5th level then. Didn’t DS originally require OP characters because it was so brutal. Just start at 3 or 5 and go from there

I haven't looked at them myself yet, but the sorcerer that can steal peoples HD to power their magic. That doesn't sound boring in it is surface (like I said I haven't read the subclass yet).

I was talking about combining narrativist rules w/ simulationist rules

Aren’t both daggerbeart and the cosimere (so) rpg tackle those?

I predate the Atari so…

Yikes! I must be old, that sounds terrible to me

The expansions will be $15 each

It looks like the new monster is “Demodragon” to my eye.

I don’t have the numbers in front of me, but IME CR 5 is not a threat to a group of 4-5 level 3 PCs and CR 7 even less so for level 5 PCs.

You can always change the difficulty, the question was how the adventure was designed

Is this correct? CR 5-7 encounters are a cake walk for a group of level 3-5 PCs This otherwise looks very interesting.

Is that it, no other good ones?!

No, 5E does not have anything like that. Hiwrver that is how the developers described it several years back. It might’ve been a Sage Advice or something like that, but I just remember the developers talking about it.

That is an interesting distinction. I don’t know that I like it for wizards either, but it might be an interesting way to differentiate the two.
