unnamed Dungeons & Dragons 5th edition play-by-post campaign

[xRECKONERx]

also 5e is just better

[brassherald]

Look, the addition of advantage and disadvantage rather than bonus points and the removal of skill points made me very happy to not play 3.5e again.

Skill Monkeys are like the worst thing ever in 3.5e. I can actually make a rogue in 5e and not want to murder someone for coming up with skill points.

So is 4e zzz

but still, the point is; why is anyone discussing this like Sleepo is going to run anything beside 5e? It says 5e in the name and he only knows 5e.

I'm reasonably intelligent

go listen to crap and watch your half naked men.

lol, idiot can't even follow the conversation.

[SleepyKrew]

5e is the only option

[PenguinPower]

I want to play, but only if I can have a miniature giant space hamster.

[xRECKONERx]

goooood

5 post in a row asking for 5e. I'm following fine. So much for "Reasonably intelligent". My point is more, once we corrected James about 3.5 not being compatible with 5e, why are we discussing it?

[brassherald]

I'd like a puppy companion for my character.

[Nero Cain]

no one was talking about running anything other than 5e.

[PJ.]

I would prefer to play 5e.

5e please.

Shut up nero. holy shit.

[PJ.]

And by shut up I mean, do not talk to me.

[SleepyKrew]

could you two argue somewhere else

[Nero Cain]

I mean, him being confused that it was compatible and him wanting to play a pathfinder character is not at ALL asking to not play 5e, fucking moron.

[PJ.]

And by shut up I mean, do not talk to me.

What part of stop didn't you understand?

[SleepyKrew]

I'm serious. Both of you drop it.

[T-Bone]

I only have the original 5e stuff, none of the updates or expansions...so I'd like to see them to play too.

[Papa Zito]

When's the wedding

[McMenno]

Also I think that if the party is TOO BIG the game might be hard to handle? idk.

I think in face to face/roll20 more than 5 people gets a little too chaotic to handle. idk about pbp though

[AniX]

I don't think a GM should set out to kill players, but I think an opportunity where death would be thematically meaningful or where the player does something that makes death inevitable unless the GM handwaves should proceed as normal.

[brassherald]

I find it's kind of hard to die in 5e, but I don't have an issue with it as a possibility.

[xRECKONERx]

Man I have come so close plenty of times.

The demand for this seems really high so I've talked to SK and I'm going to throw my hat in as a DM. I'm looking to run a city centered campaign based on a 5e conversion (by me in real time as we run into it) of the pathfinder adventure path Curse of the Crimson Throne. The adventurers will start out being brought together to seek revenge against a local crime boss that has wronged them all in some way in the past. It will transition into a campaign where they will be offered options for quests at the local adventure's guild. Seeds for a greater narrative will be tied into some or most of the quests that the group choose to take. The setting will be high magic by 5e standards. Curse of the Crimson Throne originally is intended to run from first to 20th level. That could be quite a big time commitment so we might stop at another break point (perhaps as early as you getting revenge on the local crime boss.) dependent on how everyone is enjoying things.

[Faraday]

interested if there's space in either chamber's/skrews
