    D&D 5E (2014) Free 60+ page Guide to Sword & Sorcery for 5E D&D

    Personally, I allow feats, except the three feats known to cause a lot of problems: Great Weapon Master, Lucky, and Sharpshooter. The tips about Inspired Leader and Healer are good. The general philosophy when it comes to healing (as you'll see when you get to the Classes and Sorcery chapters)...

    Thanks for the detailed feedback! My comments follow below... Good points, I'll rephrase those sections. +1 to 5E for already handling this in a sensible manner! By default, under the 5E rules you are instantly killed if brought to (negative your max hit points) from a single attack. As you...

    No, I'm one of those uncorrupted, "wholesome barbarians" that @CapnZapp was talking about... :-) Cool! Are you using the Pathfinder or 5E version of Primeval Thule?

    Huh. I didn't post any pictures, just a link to the book. I'm always surprised by the fact that monsters, blood and violence seems to be OK in movies, comics and games; but some nipples must be censored like the plague. Anyway, if you just google "world of xoth", you should be able to find the...

    No immediate plans to update old stuff to 5E, I would rather focus on publishing new material. That said, I don't think it will be too hard to convert the older adventures, mostly by replacing the NPCs and monsters with similar NPC/monster stat blocks from the 5E MM. Also, I can highly recommend...

    Thanks! Credit where it's due: The artists are Mark Allen, Kent Burles, Storn Cook, Tommaso Galmacci, and Steve Lines. I fully agree with everything you said there and in the following paragraphs. That said, I think that GMs and players could (and should) shake up the genre stereotypes if they...

    No, there's no Kickstarter planned. The World of Xoth is an established setting with a number of books (adventure modules) already published (see xoth.net publishing - sword and sorcery roleplaying adventures ), but so far those books have been for 3.5/Pathfinder. Future books will be using the...
