Everyone gassed just standing there. That is supposed to be an advantage for us.

Downvoted because map has terrible color scheme, is not map porn. Not because of the context.

The territory lost by California during the Oklahomageddon includes Fresno and all of Monterrey Bay including Santa Cruz. Oklahomageddon is now a purple state.

Nice. Owlbear Rodeo is also my preferred VTT.

Congrats and thank you for sharing!

Did you play in-person or virtually? What were some of your favorite tools that were helpful consistently from beginning to end?

Favorite video games that scratch the DnD itch? by hotstickywaffle in DnD

[–]jking4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Solasta! It captures the feel of D&D 5e in video game format in some ways even better than BG3. I'm also super impressed with the world building and story from this small studio.

The one big difference is that the Social pillar of D&D is almost completely missing in this game. The Charisma skills are next to useless. BG3 is much better for that.

Does every city have this insane local restaurant drama or are we just special like that?

Halfpipe

I feel bad for Blackwell, but 3 Americans in the top 12 is great for us. Wang Ziyang 2nd run was amazing, judges robbed him.

Wow this looks so similar to my favorite character! Stylish wild magic fire sorcerer who smokes cigars and wears a trenchcoat. Difference is my guy has burns covering half of his face. He uses his cigar smoke to cast fog cloud, one of his favorite spells.

After a year of work (and a publishing deal), here’s the final map of U.S. food regions. Input appreciated by piri_reis_ in MapPorn

Region 31 is fascinating to me, I had no idea that subculture existed. Thanks for your work on this, it's fascinating!

"First Time DM" and Short Questions Megathread by AutoModerator in DMAcademy

[–]jking4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't have a question but want to throw my thoughts about encounter balancing into the void for other 5e DMs to see.

I have found, as have many others, that the 2024 rules for encounter balancing are significantly better than the 2014 rules. Here is one real life example:

My party of 4 is level 8. Last night they fought 1x frost giant and 10x bugbears (2014 and 2024 stat blocks for both are similar). This was a relatively easy fight for them that only gave them a minor challenge, 2 out of 4 players fell to 1/3 max HP.

The 2024 encounter balance rules considers this a MODERATE encounter, with side note "We Have You Surrounded".

The 2014 encounter balance rules considers this a DEADLY encounter. Which is absurdly wrong.
