    D&D (2024) It's not worth it/we are out of luck/time

    I keep seeing this sentiment about R5e/1D&D/anniversary edition/version. Why is it people think that we should not express our thoughts in discussions? What is the purpose of shutting down what people say they want?

    D&D (2024) what would a 1D&D warrior archtype look like to play like the casters?

    Okay so I played around with the idea of making a warlord or warblade off teh warlock frame... but I was thinking. Imagine a class that the fluff was about being physical fit, a hero, legendary and uses weapons armors and tools. Now imagine that class got 1/2 the choices a wizard does. so at...

    D&D (2024) If the surveys are not read (+)

    Lets say that for the sake of this thread, WotC doesn't read the surveys and only look at the argot numbers to justify things they already want to change. (again premises is that they are NOT honest with us about this) Okay, so we say that.... what does the current design of the playtest tell...

    FUD and good/bad faith

    My understanding is the rules against 'making things personal' and attacking what someone thinks over what they say are in place to try keep things nice. However I have noticed an uptick in personal attacks, the latest's is if you disagree with someone you are 'arguing in bad faith'. My...

    D&D (2024) RIFTS mdc

    So as long as we are talking about updated rules I wonder if we could get a better structure system. Right now we have a system where somethings have 'threshold' and there is an amount that if you don't do it, you do 0... but if you deal that threshold you do full damage. Some monsters (and I...

    D&D General Amalgam World

    So in the DL threads I have been accused of wanting everything in every world and having no world be unique... BUT by chance I stumbled onto a fun game I would love to share with you... Mash ups of D&D worlds. My first is the world of dragonlance... BUT put ashardalon in it... and take the...

    D&D 5E No magic (+thread)

    (As a plus thread I would LOVE to discuss pros and cons of HOW to do this, but not the should it be or try to argue against doing it) So back 2019-2020 I ran a game based on themes and ideas from Lord of the Rings, and Game of Thrones (with some yugioh, xmen, and mortal kombat thrown in for...

    D&D General House of the Dragon has me thinking about Succession

    So ( I guess broad spoilers) HotD is the story of how the dynasty implodes into a civil war. However it has a lot of bad people, like almost no one to root for. SO I wanted to think about a D&D game (and I am currently using 5e but I had thought of this back in 4e too, and the system is pretty...

    D&D 4E speak with money

    so in another thread I was reminded that speaking with your wallet works both ways. Not only do you have to not buy what you don't like you must buy and support things you do. 4e came out June 6, 2008 and this lead me to a hypothetical... imagine that in June of 2023 they had a 15 year...

    D&D 5E DM takes the wheel

    Over the years I have been accused (not by players but by people on these boards) of taking control of PCs... and I have not seen it in years in play until tonight... when I was playing and the DM constantly provided my character's dialog based on skill rolls. Not social ones either. I tried to...

    D&D (2024) Sharp shooter/Great Weapon Mastery

    These two feats are normally seen as the two best in the game (I guess only if you use weapons and they are ranged or two handed but still) they took away the part that most people talk about though... -5 to hit for +10 to damage. Sharp shooter no longer has a damage bonus Great weapon...

    D&D 5E Relationships

    Okay, so in Strixhaven they have relationships that are handled as a very loose 'teenage romance' kind of way. IT's a cool idea, but if I want to expand on it for my 3rd attempt at Curse of Strahd does anyone have any ideas or rescources in mind? I don't need it to be romantic, but maybe...

    D&D (2024) A three class chaise idea

    So people disliked 4e every class using AEDU but now people are worried about casters (again) reigning supreme on both power and options. So I have said for sometime a new 4e with less HP (but still front loaded) using the warlock Chaise would be my dream edition... but then again I run into...

    D&D General Roll20 useing art as tokens

    So many of us have taken to online gaming (I use roll20) and with that the idea of stealing art from the internet has seemed easier then trying to make a 100% description from nothing. What are YOU using for art for your online games? and Do you credit the original artists (if you can even...

    D&D General 6-8 encounters (combat?)

    So I keep hearing how the best way to balance the game is a 6-8 encounter adventuring day for every adventuring day... putting aside that I feel that is way too gamest and unrealistic... does this mean combat? or does it mean all 3 pillars? We all agree three is more to combat then the other...
