    Scotland trip

    My wife and I are heading to Scotland in May and June next year. I'm looking for less obvious suggestions for hikes, bars and restaurants, and whatever that most people wouldn't know about. Oh, and small distillery or brewery..... I have a long list of castles and some birding sites, and I...

    I'm getting pop up ads that completely block the site on my phone. Started a couple days ago. Is this expected behavior?

    Tv in gaming table and general gaming table advice

    You always read not to lay a tv on its side, but many people build gaming tables with TVs in them. Do we know how long these TVs last? I am just about done finishing the basement, and one of the rooms will have dedicated gaming space. I'd like to convert my gaming table, which is just a dining...

    D&D General The blood war can finally end!

    One of the things in the 2014 rules that amused me was that demons and devils didn't do magic damage, and so could barely hurt each other, until they did force later.... Now? It looks like fiends can be hurt by normal attacks. I assume this means they'll be killing each other faster.... While...

    D&D General Teased Lorwyn-Shadowmoor Supplement Crosses Magic: the Gathering and D&D

    WotC has teased an upcoming Magic: The Gathering / Dungeons & Dragons crossover supplement. No info has been given other than a mention of Lorwyn-Shadowmoor and an art piece by Jesper Ejsing. Lorwyn-Shadowmoor is a Magic: the Gathering plane. The official MtG page for it describes it as...

    D&D General Gear

    I hate gear in statblocks even more than I thought I would. It's hard to spot. Plus, it seems really oddly inconsistent what I can or can't take. Like, I can't take a silver sword from a gythyanki? I think almost anytime that it is really tied to a creature it can't be taken. But this is a...

    D&D General Demons (or whatever) in 2024

    Is there a way to even see a list of demons in the 2024 rules? I just checked dnd beyond, and didn't see one. This can't be real, can it? This can't be how the MM is supposed to be organized......seriously. Ugh. Please, someone show me I'm wrong.

    D&D General Things I like in the new MM

    Against my better judgement, I just bought a hard copy..... I'm going to post the things I like... Some of these were likely in 2014 as well.... I like the little tables in some entries about how the monster could be used. I like habitat and treasure being listed, even if I don't love the...

    D&D General Gnolls as Fiends

    D&D General Instead of Steed

    What would you do for a paladin at 5th level instead of faithful steed? That's not the kind of paladin one of my players really is.....

    D&D General Initiative Posts

    Weird that a lot of initiative posts came up, just as I start posting a lot of articles about it on my website. I have a draft PDF that I thought about kickstarting with dozens (or more) possible systems and variants. It also has a discussion of pros and cons of systems, changing rules, and...

    D&D General Dmg previews up

    D&D General Surprise, Initiative and What will you do?

    If I read correctly, there is no surprise anymore (granting advantage or disadvantage on initiative isn't surprise, IMO). So, no ambushes where one side acts first. No planning what to do outside a door, opening it, and acting first * Is that correct? If so, not a fan.... *sure, you could...

    Other D&D Variant Nimble 5e

    This looks intriguing. Has anyone played the first version of this? I'm confounded by being intrigued, as I'm also intrigued by actually playing 13th age, which is clearly on the other end of complexity!
