    oops, and the text of the hand out for the Kobold Bounty (p29) is a repeat of the"Find Bloodsucking Fiend".

    D&D (2024) Check Out The All-New Relaunched EN5ider Magazine For D&D!

    Maybe a typo? Broken Lance, p4 "... increases its damage dice to 1d12 ..." Is that supposed to be 2d12? Because a mundane lance is already 1d12. Otherwise loving it. Especially the bulletin board with some of the old adventures. I know there is good stuff there. I used issue 01 just last...

    Gate Pass Gazette Issue #37 has taken the stage!

    raising eyebrows at Choreography That seams rather powerful. It's not quite the Lucky Feat or whatever o5e Divination wizards have. but still... I love it. Its thematic. It cements bards as the best casters. I want to GM a bard with it. Now. do i tell either of my bard players about it....

    D&D General Did my players knock down an apartment building (in game)?

    First time for me, the party dropped a kilometer long adamantine chain anchoring a Zhent floating temple over the forests of Daggerdale. There was some question if the PCs had cracked Faerun like an egg. Instead, they just set a large part of the Dales on fire.

    D&D General Did my players knock down an apartment building (in game)?

    Thank you. I had no idea that this was a thing... Some really spectacular images. Good stuff. 1) & 2) really help me visualise some options. Particularly that it can't have been foundational because it would have already collapsed. 3) was always in play, because "the party gets hanged by...

    D&D General Did my players knock down an apartment building (in game)?

    One of my parties is exploring underneath a city. As the city is 1500+ years old, most of the buildings are built on older buildings. With some difficulty people can move between the buried remains of these buildings. The party found a trap door leading up. it was propped up and nailed shut...

    Free League's 'Lord of the Rings' Games Explore The Elves

    Someone with Númenórean devices. When the Númenóreans invaded Valinor, the Teleri (sea elves) fled. If i recall correctly, there was some question as to whether the Valor themselves could withstand the Númenóreans. Even after the downfall Númenóreans could make weapons that could harm spirits...

    D&D 5E Gadgets Aren't Just For Artificers

    Again, i really liked this article. The 'lead-lined mantlet' gave me a couple of more ideas. Asbestos Coverall 15,000 silver drams 7 kilograms. A loose hood, tunic, and pāy-jāma. Lined with plates of asbestos. Worn by alchemists and firework makers. The suite provides resistance against...

    D&D 5E Gadgets Aren't Just For Artificers

    Very cool. For a personal hwacha i was thinking of the Bee's Nest. So adding a third option to Advanced Tactical Chemistry (for context the PC is a machinist artificer, and so has a custom vehicle, which builds in some of the limitations of large items like the Bee's Nest and Siege Shield)...

    D&D 5E Gadgets Aren't Just For Artificers

    Maybe i am missing something but the table for price and weight mentions a 'lead-lined mantlet' but i couldn't find that item in the article. Edit. I should have lead with this all looking like cool and nifty stuff. I'm really tempted to tell an artificer player she can have her own personal...

    Level Up (A5E) Folk Football

    Has anyone written about running a football match? Old school style. Kick off with an inflated goat bladder ball halfway between two villages, and the first team to get the ball into the opposition's village is the winner. I found some sports stuff that i have used in the past (all three made...

    Level Up (A5E) Is it possible to download character sheets from Foundry?

    We're doing a multi-group face-to-face in a couple of weeks, and i'd like to do it with pen and paper. But i have been unable to figure out how to get the PC character sheets off Foundry. Transcribing 15 character sheets is going to take a long time. It would be a lot easier if i could at...

    Freebies, Sales, and Charity Bundles for June 16, 2024

    I think the link got left off the D&D cartoon minis by Damien Holder. Easy enough to do when here are so many links. I presume this is it Starter Set Bonus Pack: Animated Series - Dungeon Masters Guild | Dungeon Masters Guild

    Level Up (A5E) GMing a vox savant

    I noticed that, and already ruled that the party druid can upcast speak with animals on multiple targets. (The campaign is on a savannah, so this should cover most other enemies).

    Thank you both. I think i understand well enough now to actually help the new player.

    Level Up (A5E) GMing a vox savant

    A new player at one of my tables just rolled up a vox savant. I've neither played one nor GM'd one. I was hoping someone could chime in if i'm getting anything wrong. Vox savants are off-tank controllers? They can mitigate damage and put limitations on enemies. The savant uses their bonus...

    Level Up (A5E) Cantrips, pros and cons

    That sounds great. I think I'm gonna do that unilaterally. So bard players have something to do with their bonus action once they've run out of battle hymns and bardic inspiration. Is it just me or is what a character does with their bonus action that defines a class? Everyone can cast a...

    RPG Evolution: Hasbro's AI Plans

    That's a weird interpretation. The problem is the system. A capitalist political economy requires that capitalists maximise profits, those that don't cease to be capitalists. Capitalists who fail to naughty word over workers with LLM will be bankrupted and become yet another worker being naughty word over.

    RPG Evolution: Hasbro's AI Plans

    "Thou shall not make a machine in the likeness of a human mind" Although i believe the first prophet was Samuel Butler, with Erewhon. The bit Frank Herbert got right is it was not a tyranny of thinking machines but that powerful people used the thinking machines to subjugate the rest of...
