    D&D 5E (2014) What does it mean to you for a character/class to be "good in melee"?

    Without video evidence, that is merely mythic. If he'd caught it on electronic media, otoh, it would be YouTube LEGENDARY.

    D&D 5E (2014) [Poll] How Satisfied Are You With the Fighter Class?

    Sacrosanct I'm lovin' these polls, and a lot of your threads in general. Keep 'em comin'!

    D&D 5E (2014) What does it mean to you for a character/class to be "good in melee"?

    There are rumors going around about Lego blocks that are afraid of d4s.

    D&D 5E (2014) What does it mean to you for a character/class to be "good in melee"?

    It ain't about the character, or even the enemy. It's the dice. Those damn, unpredictable dice. The best developed PC has no defense against them. ;)

    D&D 5E (2014) sharpshooter math meaning

    Still leaves me wondering about my innate proficiency for ducking my face into the flight path of an oncoming Frisbee.

    D&D 5E (2014) sharpshooter math meaning

    One other consideration that goes to narrative: If the target is not incapacitated, it may move unexpectedly. Could be as innocent and difficult to prepare for as a sneeze that results in that vital spot suddenly being in a different place.

    D&D 5E (2014) Revised Warlock (Updated to version 2)

    If a character has a high-level spell that they can cast At-Will an unlimited number of times, that is unfair to other players. You do need to establish those limits in line with what other casting classes are able to do. Other than that, I do like what you have done with this, especially the...

    D&D 5E (2014) Squeezing Into A Smaller Space [variant]

    I kind of like this. I've added it to my "House Rules Under Consideration" sheet for my group to look at and, well, consider.

    D&D 5E (2014) A Maze that works in actual play?

    Damned intriguing challenge. My few attempts over the decades at designing a maze that keeps the players engaged without getting bored/irritated achieved only meager success. This is proving to be educational. P.S. Hope your Al-Qadim play-testing is going well.

    D&D 5E (2014) Survivor Core Classes- Fighter Wins!

    Wow! Still chuckling. A Happy Ending for our Cavalier. I wasn't sure how he'd get there, but I'm well-satisfied with how it worked out. And what a cast of characters ... I can't wait for the movie! Until then, I've got ideas for a variant Charlatan background: the Tax Collector. Wait 'til they...

    The allusion took me a moment on this one. "Who's Done, we have a problem." A pun that sneaks up on you, and subtly points a finger at Apollo. That's good. Blame it all on that other pantheon.

    D&D 5E (2014) Character Backstories: Care to share?

    @ jgsugden. Wow. Simply ... wow. This is what many a player dreams of: creating a character that, by happenstance, deservedly becomes an NPC of legendary importance beyond those adventures the player was there for.

    D&D 5E (2014) Character Backstories: Care to share?

    @BoldItalic I see your way with absurd comedy preceded giving the Cavalier Duke Cholmondley a Happy Ending. I hereby dub thee "Wit-Lark" (in bold italic, of course), as your proficiency in taking your wit on a lark is approaching the profound.

    No fair! I have vulnerability to Egyptology! Its distractions leave me charmed at the least, and sometimes stunned!

    D&D 5E (2014) Why wimpy SLING damage and range?

    Add the dual-function of usage as a quarterstaff in melee, and I'm with you. That's akin to a combat rifle's utilization as a melee bludgeoning weapon when out of ammunition ... ... and that's not even considering adding a spear point to the opposite end of the staff from the sling. Which...

    D&D 5E (2014) Why wimpy SLING damage and range?

    I'd drop the long ranges to the game standard of no more than four times the short range. Otherwise, I view this as a reasonable home rule.
