    Chaos Walking ...er....??? [Review?]

    Hiya! Ok, interesting premise. Acceptable initial incident. After that though....it's all downhill, then down the beach, into the water, out to sea, and plunged into the Marianas Trench! I mean, seriously? What the heck were the writers, directors and producers thinking?!? This is what happens...

    Amazon Prime D&D Art Documentary (made in 2019)

    Hiya! Just wondering if anyone else has watched this. It's on Amazon Prime (Canada, at any rate) and it is about an hour and a half long. It was made in 2019...not sure how I missed it...but it talks to a swath of old TSR artists from "back in the day". Anyway, if you have an hour and a half...

    Preferred Adventure Writing Medium?

    Hiya! I have a question to the DM's out there that write their own adventures/modules. What is your generally preferred "medium" for writing them? All digital on a laptop/desktop? On a tablet sitting in the coffee shop? On dead-tree skin with poisonous metal? Psychic memory impressions on...

    D&D 5E "Labels" and D&D Gaming

    Hiya! First, no, not "that" kind of label. Second, I was skimming the forums here and for some reason got 'irked' with all the labels everyone seems to be using to describe D&D, and RPG'ing in general, that I think are...unnecessary? Let me explain a bit... A Groups Home Game. The labels...

    Crazy Idea...max HP of 20th level?

    Hiya! Crazy idea I've been having of late that keeps popping back up. But first I need to set the 'limits' (things we don't use) of this experiment I'm going to try... LIMITS Feats Multiclassing Any book other than PHB, DMG, MM (just core, baby!) Ok, with that out of the way... The idea...

    GenCon and "the Attack"?

    Hiya! I'm a bit surprised that nobody has posted anything about what happened yesterday at GenCon regarding Jeremy ("The Quartering" on YouTube) and the assault on him. Mostly I'm curious to hear from anyone there about the 'feeling' and what the general scuttlebutt is. To my knowledge GenCon...

    D&D 2E Is 5e Basically Becoming Pathfinder 2e?

    Hiya! I know there are quite a few vocal folks on ye olde 'net that clamour for ever more "choices" in 5e. I get that. Not my cup o' brew, but to each their own. That said... I *thought* one of the key selling points of 5e was "simplified" (yes, the CORE system is that) with a focus on...

    D&D 5E To Crunch or not to Crunch?

    Hiya! Seems a poll is in order of late... Some folks want more CRUNCH from WotC...some want just the amount they are putting out...some want less than what the are putting out. I'm not sure how popular or unpopular these various choices are here on EnWorld, so I figured I'd pop up a poll to...

    D&D 5E Length of peoples Campaigns?

    Hiya. I was perusing a few threads this afternoon and one about campaign settings of old semi-tangent for a few posts with folks commenting about the old 32-page detachable-cover-with-map-on-back 1e modules and how many folks want to see them return. My brain, for some reason, drew that into...

    D&D 5E Must-Have's on personal DM's screen

    Hiya. I'm just wondering if anyone has made their own DM's screen, and if so, what charts/tables/info from the DMG you have on it? I have all the stuff from the PHB that I use, but I still have space and am going to hit the DMG up for filling it. Are any tables/etc in the DMG that are "must...

    D&D 5E Aversion to Creativity?

    Hiya. Of late, I've been noticing a lot of posts asking about "when will we get Book X?" or "5e is dieing because nothing's being produced" or "what does 5e lack?", etc. So, I've come to ask an honest question: Is it just me, or does there seem to be a distinct aversion to create your own...

    D&D 5E Rogues & damage...

    Hiya. In another thread, someone mentioned "The rogue is supposed to be a top martial damage dealer". I'm curious as to when this idea started. I'm thinking it started either around the "2.5e" Skills & Powers, or 3e, because when I started playing, the Thief class was absolutely NOT even...

    D&D 5E The "need" for "official rulings"...?

    Hiya. I've seen multiple people over multiple threads and forums ask for an "official ruling as to X, Y or Z". Can anyone tell my why this seems to come up so often? I can understand a question where two rules in the same game contradict each other. For example, Rule #1 says "Take X and add...
