If they move away from the Protector/Scourge/Fallen in the Core book, that does indeed just open up more options, as the older versions will still be valid as well. It doesn't replace them. We already have different versions of Dragonborn, for instance.

Anyone think they might redesign Aasimar to absorb the Ardling concept and be mirrors of the new Tiefling? LG Archon-blood Aasimars from the Seven Heavens of Celestia and adjacent realms NG Guardinal-blood Aasimars from Elysium and adjacent realms CG Ghaele/Bralani-blood Aasimars from Arborea...

You want Gonzo? Get Greyhawk Ruins. There is some crazy-arse Zagyg stuff. There are clowns, urns filled with hundreds of beads of force that if you set off one, you blow them all and can level the dungeon, etc. I can't seem to find my copy. Must be in a box.

My group each rolls 4d6, drop the lowest (in front of everyone). Each array is made available to every player. Anyone can pick any array and arrange them how they want. There is usually one array that is a bit better than the others, and most players take that array. When that happens, they are...

For 1E, we tried it, hated it, and then ignored it. For 2E we bought Dark Sun and the Complete Psionics Handbook, and then we quit Dark Sun because it was too integrated in the setting and Psionics were broken. Never played Dark Sun again, though I bought books for lore.

I assume their groups? Just like my groups when we realized they didn't work for us?

The tone was that it was vital and non-optional and must be accepted. I refuted that, and was clear what I meant even if people were defining words differently.

Whatever. Your comment defines "authentic" D&D as psionic. After every time we tried it, we hated it, and we ignored it. Any psionics 2E and older was a hot mess of a burden. It wasn't fundamental, authentic, or vital in any way. It was very easily dropped without breaking anything and therefore...

See, I see the mind, the soul, and the body as different things in D&D. Even spirits aren't "souls" in my headcanon.

The 2024 books will have surprises that were never playtested. They mentioned the Soulknife in a recent video, and we just got confirmation on the Aasimar (which was likely added instead of the Ardling due to overwhelming feedback from the community. They listened.)

But if the fans reeally love their new take on Greyhawk, that could lead to a high-quality hardcover. I would really love to see how they might depict the setting differently than other settings. With color art? Heck yah.

Dude... If the DMG is going to focus on villains for art, maybe we'll get to see a GOOD depiction of Iuz in the DMG? I've never seen any art of Iuz that was compelling.

Looks good to me!

I like the art... but what is the wizard looking at? That's way off the shoulder of the dragon... maybe its mate? Dun Dun DUNNNNNN...

Strongheart the Paladin is an established, recognizable named male character that has already been represented in old toys. But you never know!

I just think they like the idea of "creature-type-blooded" races. Dragonborn - dragon Goliath - giant Tiefling - fiend Aasimar - celestial Elf - fey Genasi - elemental etc.

Sheila and Erik went into the Dungeon to "scout."

I don't like "Skills" impacting opposed checks in combat, like with 2014 grappling rules. It is too easy for numbers get too disparate between PCs and monsters. Whether it is the PCs min-maxing, or just some monsters being unescapable by some PCs due to their own size and specialization, I like...

I was thinking about this. I don't want to flat out negate crits for lots of "hardy" high level monsters. What if "Hardy" worked more like "Uncanny Dodge"? The monster just uses a Legendary Resistance to take half damage from an attack or to succeed on a Saving Throw (which might also be half...

Some people hang out in the D&D forums saying D&D sucks and [their preferred game] is better, even though there is a forum for their game. shrug
