    Daggerheart To Release Official Hope & Fear Expansion

    OK, so in the interest of price analysis, the deluxe edition is actually quite a fair value: $40 for the 200 page book and cards: actually a great price 12 rhombic dohecahedrons: it was a bit of work to find a fair price, since these are rare, but what I found was $2.50 for a single die or $10...

    D&D 5E (2024) WotC Should Make 5.5E Specific Setting

    So, a major portion of the world building in the Greyhawk boxed set uses random encounter tables set by nation or geographical region to establish what can be expected where (and triangles show where a lot of Gnomes, Dwarves, and Halflinfs are), but even these are meant to be supplemental to the...

    D&D 5E (2024) WotC Should Make 5.5E Specific Setting

    For sure, but it is pretty easy to slide Dragonborn, Aasamir, Tieflings, and Goliaths in there alongside them. There are already dragons, giants, fiends, and celwstials ar work.

    D&D 5E (2024) Lorwyn: First Light Released on D&D Beyond

    Well, it's an advantage to anyone who buys a hard copy book if this material gets repressed down the line. And they fixed it quickly, so people who paid to playtest did not wait long, I guess.

    D&D 5E (2024) Ed Greenwood to Publish 4 New Forgotten Realms Sourcebooks in 2026

    Completely different, yes. Gary Gygax was by all accounts a very dynamic DM, but the novels...less dynamic. I love the Forgotten Realms as a worldbuilding exercise, but I'm sorry...that sentence is damning with faint praise. Great DM, great spinner of world details. Probably a fantastic...

    D&D 5E (2024) Ed Greenwood to Publish 4 New Forgotten Realms Sourcebooks in 2026

    He who controls the past, controls the present. Bit of a difference between a casually dashed off forum post and something like Spellfire.

    Daggerheart To Release Official Hope & Fear Expansion

    Todd makes the good point that the book has a certain "Xanathar's Guide to Everything" energy. Mercer gives a really good pitch of the freaking cards.

    Forgotten Realms: Heroes of Faerun - First Impressions

    Yeah, basically everything in the South seems like it returned to what it was in the Grey Box.

    Their joy is infectious.

    D&D 5E (2024) Ed Greenwood to Publish 4 New Forgotten Realms Sourcebooks in 2026

    One does get the impression thst Greenwood is a better DM than a writer, so it could be somewhat of a failure to communicate a moment he made work at a table.

    D&D 5E (2024) Lorwyn: First Light Released on D&D Beyond

    Basically the one advantage of this being in a digital only release: nobody bought the awkward phrasing in a permanent printed book.

    Is Acquisitions Inc. switching to Daggerheart? Yes!

    And Mercer is joining the cast!

    Your top 5 sci-fi movies (and why)

    The world is simply not ready for the Whiskey Tango Foxtrot of a film that really gets Phillip K. Dicks real points, mixing LSD with neo-Gnostic mysticism. "Deciphered, my novel tells a quite different story from the surface story (…). The real story is simply this: the return of Christ, now...

    D&D 5E (2024) WotC Should Make 5.5E Specific Setting

     Essentially there are no Halfling or Gnome polities in Greyhawk: you have to look at the birthplace charts or wandering encounter tables to glran that basically Hnomes and Halflings, like Hill and Mountain Dwarves, live out in the boonies of the hills and mountain here's beyond the defined...

    Exactly, this happens to all of us...and the 20s has been intense for inflation.
