D&D 5E Review Part 17: Final Overview
Now that I’ve picked through the D&D 5E rules in way too much detail, it’s time for a general look at the good, the bad, and the Drow Rangers who dual-wield scimitars. There are a lot of possible ways to break it all down, but I’m going to go with three categories: Rules (Do they…
D&D 5E REview Part 16: Appendices
The Greatest Film Series of All Time is ending this Sunday. Since it inspired Sharktoberfest, we decided to celebrate with a 20% off sale on our entire line at Drivethru.

D&D 5E Review Part 15: Spells (Actually a GenCon Report)
Spells are a very important part of D&D, especially for spell casters. The selection of spells a spell caster has available to him can have a major effect on his or her spelling. I think the most important aspect of spells are their spell like qualities…ok, you got me, I didn’t read the spell section,…

An elf swings his delicate bejewelled sword, puncturing a disbelieving dwarf’s heart with a graceful flourish. A paladin screams “Die Infidel Scum” as he murders orcish children for the glory of his bloodthirsty sun god. A bard inspires his companions with an ancient battle song, masturbating frantically the entire time. A reviewer can’t take much…

C10KD: Lars Bloodsword
Maybe it’s the never-ending D&D review (though I think it might have more to do with Leighton and I having a long fanboy discussion about Lankhmar at DieCon) but lately I’ve been itching to do some fantasy world-building. Since I don’t have time to run a game and the world needs another fantasy RPG supplement…
D&D 5E Review Part 11: Using Ability Scores
Chapter 7 is mostly a refresher course on concepts that have already been introduced (ability scores and modifiers, advantages, and disadvantages, and proficiency bonuses) but with more in-depth explanation and a clear description of how they fit together: Roll a d20, add your ability modifier, add your proficiency bonus if you have an appropriate proficiency….
