Sure. I do not think I knew how to do free-text options when I first built these, but I can add it easily. As soon as I have some time to get to it, I will update the files and announce the update.

I know D&D can support social encounters as well as combat encounters, but most my experience with modules have been with have either been combat intense or trap heavy if there was no combat. Social encounters were rare except as interludes to combat, information seeking, and shop/rest...

Sure --I'll get that updated shortly.

Here you go. I need to update the links. https://www.enworld.org/resources/spell-cards-for-d-d-5e-using-magic-set-editor-mse.1245/

I'm not sure how many ENWorld users also hang out at RPGGeek or BoardGameGeek, but be sure to pick up the ENWorld microbadge to show your support for ENWorld while you are there.

I do not know if I am as hung up over the realities of the numbers as much as I am the incongruities of the numbers within the rules. It seems that the weight of food required per day was written only in context of foraging and it did not count the costs and weights of purchased food. I'm not...

Quick google search indicated that a riding horse should carry no more than 20% or its weight, or typically around 240 lbs (and that includes the rider!). Way less than the 480 lbs cited in the rules. Whereas a camel can carry anywhere between 375 lbs and 600 lbs. The 480 lbs cited in the...

Camels can survive up to seven months without food and water, but these are wild camels and not carrying a load, i do not think it is a worthwhile model to try to represent.

True, but I do not think such a small bonus influences any player to choose a camel over a horses. I see the fiscal decision still driving the decision in game for 5e. Unlike 1st edition, the camel offered a clear choice over a horse for desert environments.

oh yeah.

I thought about that. I was thinking of sandwalk ability, but that sounded too much like a 4e terrainwalk ability that does not exist in 5e. (except for the White Dragon which has Ice Walk). I also did not want to overemphasize soft sand as difficult terrain and leave it up to the DM to make...

I did not double check publication dates, which I should have. I keep forgetting that the basic rules were still being republished in new edition after the AD&D 1st Edition came out. If there was ever a group to double-check research, this place is it. I'll make some edits to correct.

Good catch -- I'll edit.

How the Camel lost its hump When the camel was first introduced as a mount in Dungeons and Dragons, it was a premium mount with preferred abilities over a riding horse in desert environments. However, over the years, with each subsequent edition, the camel has been relegated to a poor man’s...

Perhaps the "Feed" for animals is like the human rations then, which explains the excessive weight to need? It does not spoil, but it is also not fresh grazing grass.
