    So what's the deal with solo gaming?

    Check out the Dragonbane boxed set. It comes with a solo mode. It's well worth the money even if you don't run it solo. The box is a fantastic deal. Shadowdark also has a solo mod, Solodark. It's up on Kelsey's website.

    So what's the deal with solo gaming?

    You can also play "regular" games in solo mode with things like the Mythic GM Emulator. Word Mill Games The YouTube channel Me, Myself, and Die! is pretty good for learning about solo gaming with Mythic specifically. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCtiBzkVoYrugJkrpW7_75Ag

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    A stray adopted us and had a litter of murder muffins in our house. We're beyond full for cats already. Free to a good home. Should be ready to adopt around the first week of November. Too young to be fixed yet. All friendly and used to people. Some boys, some girls. Near Portland, OR...

    D&D General Edition Experience - Updated Survey Results (Updated October 2025)

    Pretty sure it's the board. If there were a dedicated 4E forum, the likelihood of people who hate 4E intentionally crashing every 4E thread would be quite low. As an example, the dedicated 4E discord doesn't have that problem. Note how several of those are [+] threads. That's likely key to...

    D&D 5E (2024) Mike Mearls explains why your boss monsters die too easily

    Sorry, but no. This is one of those clear examples of dumb rules that should not be blindly followed. Like surviving swimming in lava without magic and a person filling a 5-foot square.

    NUREMBERG Official Trailer (2025)

    “Evil, I think, is the absence of empathy.” —Captain G. M. Gilbert, after the Nuremberg trials. I can think of no better definition of evil. Should be an interesting watch. Not sure about Crowe as Göring.

    D&D 5E (2024) Mike Mearls explains why your boss monsters die too easily

    Yes, exactly. Regardless of what they choose to do, continue or rest, they will inevitably face "random" encounters. It's disguising the inevitability of a random encounter with pointless rolls. The choice doesn't matter.
