D&D 5E 5E Survivor - 5th Edition Survives! [+]

[Cadence]

I wonder how "favorite DMG" differs from favorite out of 1e/2e/3e/4e/5e games as a whole.

And now I'm wondering about a double poll. (PhB I'm guessing is a lot closer to favorite edition). Only one up-vote/down-vote on the whole page. When there's only one DMG or MM left, that category goes away.

Favorite DMG
1e 50
2e 50
3e 50
4e 50
5e 50

Favorite MM
1e 50
2e 50
3e 50
4e 50
5e 50

BECMI Dungeons and Dragons 13
Advanced Dungeons and Dragons, 2nd Edition 2 + 1 = 3
Dungeons & Dragons, 5th Edition 14 - 2 = 12

5e may have dumped a bunch of 4e things, but it kept a bunch too, even if it often appears embarrassed to admit that. Coupled with the aforementioned return of the OGL, this makes preserving 4e a LOT easier, and for that I am genuinely grateful.

I'm honestly ganking it for bounded accuracy alone.

I'm going to be traveling for the next 10 hours...perhaps we will have a winner by then?

I'll get the next Survivor thread posted when I arrive at my destination. Until then: may the best edition (BECMI) win!

Bounded accuracy was a good concept, but they bounded the accuracy too much.

We're over 1000 posts. Not 50 points each. That increase was way too much.

Come on Old Schoolers! We need to stop fighting amongst ourselves and defeat 5e. I like 5e, but Old School must with this or we'll never live it down! After all, 5e is now played by all the types who bullied us for playing D&D back in the old days. Think about it!

Yeah. With 10 like that, 20 should be plenty.

You’d have to put the 4e dmg2 in the mix. That book is reeeeally good

BECMI Dungeons and Dragons 8 -2 = 6
Advanced Dungeons and Dragons, 2nd Edition 4
Dungeons & Dragons, 5th Edition 10 +1 = 11

I predict BECMI and 5e dunking it out hard and 2e coming in for the surprise win, similar to how Rogue stole the win from Fighter and Wizard in the classes thread.
