THAC0 with Advantage ·

2024/02/21

Do the gods in your campaign look down upon the game board of the world, moving their followers into and out of conflict like the Olympians in Clash of the Titans? Do your characters lament that, or embrace it? Was your character called to service, or did they join the clergy on their own? We’re going to explore the divine and how it informs your D&D character.

Thac0 with Advantage 37. Arcane Magic and your Character

THAC0 with Advantage ·

2024/02/07

Arcane magic can reign down destruction, create something from nothing, and bend the rules of the multiverse. But how often do you think about the means by which your character harnessed that power? Do you believe in a grand theory of magic, or is magic a mystery even to you? We’re going to look at how to work more magical roleplaying details into your arcane caster player character.

No matter how long it is between our game sessions, its easy to lose track of what was going on the last time you played. Even though we want to get caught up, no one wants to wait 15 minutes for the GM to read the previous session into the record. We’re going to look at the best way to balance recapping your last session with having enough momentum to hit the ground running.

Last year was a roller coaster ride for all things Dungeons & Dragons. The year started with breaking a 23 year old promise with the OGL, a reversal that saw the 5e SRD added to creative commons, the release of the Dungeons & Dragons movie, the excitement of the 2024 anniversary year plans, and the sudden, sobering stop of the December layoffs from Hasbro. We take a look at this tumultuous year and what it means for the game and the brand.

Welcome to THAC0 . . . with Advantage! We’re two friends that have been playing D&D a long time. While we both love lots of other RPGs, D&D is what we spend most of our segments on. Time keeps on slipping slipping slipping into the future... and we should probably have some way to track it, some reason for keeping time, and have some interesting holidays and festivals to break up the monotony of the passing of the days. Maybe even put some cool adventures inside those holiday moments

What do we have here? 2024 D&D rules updates. Now it's just Unearthed Arcana again and not One D&D. There's EN Worlds Level Up: Advanced 5E that's got a starter box coming. Interesting.

The city streets are dark and filled with cut throats and pick pockets. Is that man just selling odd tinctures or is he a dragon in disguise. Can you trust your "friend" with the tip you got about the mayor's husband? All this is to say there are plenty of

No you can't play the bunny boy from Final Fantasy XIV in my Curse of Strahd game. That sentence says it all. We're talking about campaign constraints.
