My wife and i play a huge number of board games also. Here are some games we enjoy. Cribbage Mancala bananagrams cobra paw scrabble upwords sorcerer city Genius square [great replayability] The exit games are great in terms of you open the box and everyone is a player but they are play once...

Brilliant thank you

I played BECMI, 1e and 2adnd. I skipped 3, 3.5 and 4 because life. I got back into 5 and one of the many things I still dont get yet is the whole Poison Damage vs Poison Condition. It seems like you can get poison damage without getting poisoned condtition. I get that some monsters do poisoned...

Okay here is another. Once I know that I either have experienced players or players that have been in my campaigns for a while, I implement a combat rule. I ask players to plan ahead with two potential moves. That way if one of the planned moves has been taken you still have a move left. If...

What a great tip. I really like this

Okay another homebrew rule I have. General principle now rather than specific. When a player or the party approach me as the DM asking for a rule to be implemented like flanking for an example. I tell them I will think on it. Of course, I already have my answer but then the next session I...

It would be interesting to find out what rules folks have tweaked to run their campaigns. I will go first with one of mine. One of them is hidden death rolls. When established players hear this, they are often deeply dissatisfied with the idea. Here is why i did it. When a party member goes...

Thank you and yes you are right its definitely stacked again the gm. I started to read that 119 tips and it mentions a collection of treasure items. [ADD shiny object] is that available anywhere?

Thank you both I am a patreon at a relatively high monthly cost @£9, so it probably does cover me. Some good ideas and resources to unpack for me. I will place any more response on hold whilst I work through them. Thank you! I never expected the response to be so quick or thorough looking. I...

So I have been playing 5e a while now and the predominant tier that folks love to play is tiers 1 to tiers 2 and sometimes maybe halfway to three. As a result I have dm'ed about 5 games above level 10 and 1 game above level 14. I am terrible at it. Either my npcs are pushovers or they are...
