    D&D 5E (2014) Let's Talk About Guns in 5E

    Sure. But it can also be "we shoot them full of arrows" if that works, too. That is to say: if you always looking for the most ingenious way to win because it makes it more fun, you are still doing combat as sport. It's just a different sport.

    D&D 5E (2014) Let's Talk About Guns in 5E

    My response was based mostly on my (limited) understanding of the terms. I don't think I have ever played "combat as war" D&D even in the old days. Everyone always wants to look cool in addition to winning.

    I would totally watch a series about Finn going on a quest to free the brainwashed First Order storm troopers and discovering his own force sensitivity along the way.

    I don't know how I never saw this before, but TIL about Light Painting and holy wow. I always thought those kinds of images were photoshops. https://www.exploratorium.edu/tinkering/projects/light-painting

    Doesn't combat as war just demand effectiveness, and ingenuity only matters if there is no tried and true way of getting the job done?

    D&D 5E (2014) Let's Talk About Guns in 5E

    Here is an interesting tangential discussion: assuming guns are not mechanically disruptive, should they be found in the PHB equipment list? There usual placement in the DMG implicitly gives the DM authority over that aspect of world building (plus genre and tone to some degree). But in recent...

    D&D 5E (2014) Let's Talk About Guns in 5E

    I feel like you are trying to move the goalposts here. Guns don't need to work like fireball wands, they need to work like crossbows. That's all.

    Why? There are already eldritch blasts and crossbows.

    D&D 5E (2014) Let's Talk About Guns in 5E

    This has come up as a side discussion in a few threads, so I wanted to start a dedicated thread to dig into the subject. Note that I don't think there is a hige difference between how guns would work in 5E 2014 vs 2024, so the 2014 tag is just to try and limit this discussion to various 5E...

    Daggerheart on Fantasy grounds

    I think the 5E Wizard is a little better, but not much. The big issues are it doesn't give you limits on things like Experiences, so you just need to know, and it doesn't auto-equip your weapons and armor. Overall it is good. I just wanted to caution people on a couple details. Hopefully it...

    Do you have a "litmus test" setting for generic rule sets?

    No it's not. It's a theoretical model that has never met actually play.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I am not sure I would describe Alexa+ as artificial "intelligence." That thing is dumber than the box it came in.

    Well, they considered themselves chefs.

    Do you have a "litmus test" setting for generic rule sets?

    I mean, the game does not actually play this way. Like, ever.

    Do you have a "litmus test" setting for generic rule sets?

    I'm baffled. But hey, if it works for you.
