As I hinted at I am planning on doing something extremely cool with Druaga in the future. However, in true Krusty style that will not see the light of day until Spring 2028 (at the earliest) as I have too many high-priority projects to attend to first. But assuming it all pans out it will be...

I have a personal fondness for Druaga as he was probably the longest running Nemesis for my character Thrin for ages. Our group banished (defeated) him when we were quasi-deities, his Dragon riding Darksword Knights were the main foil for my Thrinian Knights, they even killed the King of...

Hey Arcanist amigo! Depends on what Challenge Rating you want and what alignment you want. I plan to detail 8 new factions in the God Rules: Epic Campaigns book who directly oppose immortals. Some oppose religions, some hunt gods, some challenge pantheons, some require multiple pantheons to...

I think that is simply a side effect of how poorly official 5e handles epic creatures (and for the same of argument let's say epic creatures means CR 20 or above). As is often cited the difference between Challenge Rating 1 and 10 is a lot greater than CR 21 and 30. Yet all the Demon Princes...

The weaker the God the more mankind can relate to it. The more powerful they become the more akin to forces of nature or cosmic phenomena they morph into. You could make a case that Elder Gods are the ones who left planetary concerns behind and went off into Space (or explore higher dimensions...

Apologies for not posting this already, the latest update has the Einheriar as a Divine Rank 1 Hero-deity Level 20 Champion Fighter. Worth noting there is a slight flaw in the Stat-block, the Einheriar should only have a +3 axe, not +4. Divine Rank 1 gets 3 Legendary Items of their choice but I...

Well I am sure the Classes all get their own unique features which should hypothetically make all Level 20 characters balanced. It does simplify all the scaling. i would not even consider that an exploit. Just a basic build. Which does give me slight pause for thought when we factor in...

Ahead of tomorrow's update, two minor mechanics I have been back and forth with (how to best implement): one is the ability to add extra attacks to characters via Divine Boons, the other is whether it not to change Action Surge or keep as is. For example, adding one extra attack is a +100%...

Just to update, gods in the new 5E book are not auto-immune to natural or cosmic phenomena this ruling is no longer needed because of Damage Threshold (base level = Hit Dice x0.3) which can negate or mitigate effects - especially when coupled with Resistances and Immunities. For example: An...

Hey Arcanist amigo! Cool. Well anything of a certain Challenge Rating could be catastrophic for a low magic planet - even the Tarrasque (my version at least). Cut off from interplanar trade suggests it wouldn't be a planar threat, so potentially an Earthly one: freed abomination (and...

No they are not equal. Realistically Time is one dimension beyond the gods and each new Grand Purview is one dimension beyond the past. Poetically it is a cycle. Realistically it's more of a ladder. Well there could be multiple Lords of Sovereignty and any of the others. Yes the Supreme...

Well taking one of the Grand Purviews requires meeting an ability score Prerequisite. So technically its not a Divine Rank or Challenge Rating. But God's of Time/Lords of Eternity will 'likely' be DR 7-10 = CR 40-52 = 4D Beings, with each next rung in the Octadic cycle +4 DR = +16 CR = +1...

Well I have been looking into the Epic Heroes name. There are four rpg books using Epic Heroes somewhere in the title. Only one uses just Epic Heroes and its a 2 page pdf on DrivethruRPG. There is Epic Heroes Encyclopedia. So I may still end up using God Rules: Epic Heroes. I'll look into it a...

Someone in the comments pointed out there already is a book called Epic Heroes for 5e. So I am considering God Rules: Epic Immortals instead. Any thoughts on the change? Love it, hate it?

Hey all, the latest preview is a bit different, it just introduces the Lords of the Light - the collective name for those Higher Dimensional beings with Grand Purviews...oh and your eyes have not deceived you I am changing the book's name to God Rules: Epic Heroes; I just think its a bit...

Hey Arcanist amigo! I have Swarm/Unit rules in the Epic Campaigns book. There are a few nuances with those. Firstly while the rules scale infinitely, I am wondering if a troop gets to one million I don't think it will should able to affect something of its Challenge Rating unless it...

I think the original plan was to put the winners into the Immortals Handbook: God's & Monsters book. I think Obly, Beefermatic and others have been posting monster content for over a decade now. So no need for official guidelines to post monstrous content now.

Hey there Arcanist amigo. Well as an Overview it should be a 160-ish* page book with 35-40 new monsters. So about half the book is the adventure and half is devoted to new monsters. So a Bestiary portion almost as big as my 3.5 Epic Bestiary - albeit with a narrower focus. *you know my page...

Two books now amigo: One for Player's and one for Games Masters (with some Adventures). Well thanks for the kind words. :giggle: I'll do my best. Lots and lots of monsters coming, starting with a few in the Player's book (Summoned in the Spell section), more in the Games Master's book (in...
