    D&D General What are the issues with the 2014 Subclasses

    I've been working on my own custom version of the 2014 D&D rules, and I'm looking for problems, oversights or outright abuses with that version of the game regarding the various subclasses so I don't get caught flatfooted by them in my custom rules. This should be restricted to WotC only...

    D&D 5E (2024) A critical analysis of 2024's revised classes

    Sounds like with auto-hit effects in 2024, a nice barbarian feature would be that they can instead make that source require a save to be effective. Maybe set the DC at a static 8 (or 10) + 1/2 CR vs. Strength or Con (probably Con). Maybe something to give at 7th level?

    D&D General Mapping A Bastion

    I'm guessing you're ignoring the "facility size" info in the DMG for this and just going with what feels interesting? I'm curious what facilities your group expects the bastion will have? I do like the background behind this and the map is certainly interesting!

    D&D General A Rant: DMing is not hard.

    DMing is taxing. It’s difficult in that manner as you are generally organizer, referee, encyclopedia, creator and playwright. I’ve suffered DM burnout more than once having been a forever DM, and my recent time as a player (for once) has been extremely relaxing.

    D&D General worldbuilding around expedition to the barrier peaks

    @Dannyalcatraz - or you can go the Elfquest route and the elves actually ARE from outer space!

    D&D General D&D Dungeon Map Design: Good and Bad

    I used a lot of gridded maps back in 1E & B/X, having gotten miniatures literally the day after I got my first D&D books. Though the maps in those modules favored drawing things out in 10 ft. squares. I remember getting frustrated with other RPGs back in that time that didn't have gridded maps...

    D&D General Which Campaign or Adventure Would You Adapt To Prestige Television?

    Sorry, they both have a novel and therefore are disqualified. :devilish:

    D&D General Lets Make a 5e 2024 Setting - World Structure

    I think if I were to do this, I'd start with a central "metropolis" like kingdom where all the various races congregate and that is relatively new. Pretty much an experiment. From this central hub, have older kingdoms that cater to specific races and perhaps lean towards specific classes (A...

    D&D General Which Campaign or Adventure Would You Adapt To Prestige Television?

    Despite the clause in the first post, the only one I'd be interested in IS a Dragonlance series that covers the War of the Lance.

    Maze and Wall of Stone? I'd like to hear the reasoning behind that for Artificer.

    Peregrine's Nest: All in the Family

    I've run games where the characters were the descendants of the player's previous characters, with mom & dad occasionally showing up - or even getting in on the group's adventures. I have also played on family connections as well, good and bad. Yes, I've used the "someone in the family has...

    D&D General + Homebrew Brainstorm to bring back prepared Vancian Casting +

    I'd probably go route #1 - losing flexibility for the option to have more spells on hand that will be useful at any given time. Overall, though I think I'd go with limited prep - maybe one or two flexible slots. The rest are prepared, but you don't need to specifically select multiples. You...

    D&D General Artificer Spells +

    Power Words for the Artillerist as attack spells Crown of Stars seems to be on all Arcane spell-users list, also seems to fit in with attacks modes for the Artillerist and Armorer (think the floating drones of Mister Fantastic from the recent Superman movie) Regenerate for the Armorer &...

    D&D General Gargoyles need to be redone.

    Idea for several gargoyle variants: Vampiric gargoyle - life-draining touch, additional powers when it's blood-draining blood hits (augmenting its humours), can become a bat or mist Weregoyle - a humanoid cursed to become a rampaging gargoyle on the night of a full moon; can infect others with...
