I don't think Georgians from the 1800s fought many who were armed with pointy sticks. But anyways, the existence of things like Ghouls and Zombies and whatever else might prevent some armors going obsolete, even with inventions like percussion caps and rifling on barrels.

There's old Chinese paintings that show soldiers using in an army using Bows, Crossbows and Muskets. It's might be very D&D now with Muskets being in the PHB, with armies being armed liked that.

I don't think Paramount Plus will survive, and I should be cancelling my subscription soon now that Star Trek: Discovery is over, and renewing it whenever Star Trek: Lower Decks comes back before cancelling again. The one streaming service I won't cancel is Netflix because it's the most...

I'd put the upper limit of technology in the late 1800s before gunpowder was replaced with modern propellant, as a loose guideline.

In more recent usage "Knight Templar" does have some negative connotations based on how often Templars are brought up in conspiracy theories. Sometimes as part of the Illuminati or as some rival of the Illuminati. And there was a cartel in Michoacan State called the Knight Templars, but they...

I know there was maybe only a few casualties from this, but apparently the last successful bayonet charge in history was more recently in Fallujah by British forces who were low on ammo.

Some thoughts about mechanics is that for AC, there could be a system of: Some class-based number like (8, 10 or 12) + Proficiency bonus for AC. Armor could be changed to Temp HP, either a flat number like 5 or 20, or a multiplier to proficiency bonus like 3*Prof bonus. With some armors also...

The "let's rank the best of this and that" thing might be a generational thing that younger generations tend to do, or might be something for neurodivergent people. I've generally felt it's an unhealthy approach for dealing with the game, which is often good just to ignore the "these are S Tier...

The 3e ruling, but I remember that if your Ranger could pick Human (which non-evil Human Rangers couldn't pick) as a favoured enemy it was actually a smart idea to do so since your enemies are more likely to be Humans in almost every campaign.

I'm not sure it even was broadcast in Canada, but then I was like 3 years old when it came that series came out.

I think we're going to see more of "brushy art" because of the existence of AI generated images. Being able to see brushstrokes is currently a way of telling if art has been human-generated or not. Then again I thought there be a big resurgence of abstract art because of AI, but I haven't seen...

Wait a minute that kid from Lorna Shore is only 30 years old.

The number I think should be around 15 or 16, there's already 13 with PHB classes + Artificer.

They asked about the Brawler though, and saw that it clearly got rejected.

I think it was the writeups where they tried to have it more like their historical fantasy books.

The more I think about, the more they should just go with some multi-ethnic Singapore-like city except turn up some aspects of it.

And there's still Tieflings and Aasimar who are potentially mixed ancestry (but not half mortal half whatever) they haven't gone away. Though many are instead "mutants" in that parents living too close to a nexus of planar energies can result in a Tiefling or Aasimar being born.

A lot the things about mixed-heritage should be more on the role-playing side of things, remember the idea that more than 90% of those who played Half-Orcs before really just wanted to play Orcs and not focus on anything about being a mixed Orc-Human. About the furthest most would go into that...

They could always start from scratch, maybe from a "Bangapore", some pastiche of Singapore and then build from there, sort of the idea of a major port city on an archipelago where there's people of many different cultures there just like Singapore, except that instead of the original founders...

I think Kara-Tur was meant to be in Oerth originally, but was brought to Toril once Forgotten Realms became more popular.
