This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Brainstorming what I want to do with [5E].

Quote from: Mostlyjoe;778178It's crazy. The Background/class/sub-class options are writing world options in my head. I have ideas, the trick now is nailing enough of them down to make a coherent game.

My initial scan through the PHB has fostered a bunch of cool NPC villains already. The sub-classes are great stuff.

Quote from: Larsdangly;778348It is one of those campaigns where you can walk out the door and get into major trouble almost any direction you go. One of the more interesting things I've done is created a set of rules for managing 'down time' activities to promote wilderness exploration, castle building and other activities of those sorts.

I've done pretty much the same thing. What I'm trying to also promote is a campaign that takes place over multiple years, rather than level 1 to level 9 in two months of game-world time. FantasyCraft is an excellent source for downtime actions and rewards. Apparently the 5E DMG will have some downtime content as well.
