This one is based on a conversation I had with my wife while we (both players) were a good part into Mines of Phandelver (we skipped Thundertree), where she wondered where the damned dragons where.

Please support the comic over on Patreon for early access to comics, polls and a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction at giving me money so I can get my Flesh-Eater Courts army up to 2k pts without my friends and family worrying about silly stuff like my "dangerous spending habits", "don't you owe the Chinese mob thousands" or "shouldn't you be able to afford food first" etc.

Stay excellent out there!

Peace and carrots!

Long story short, my Half-Elf Wizard ran away from home due to first-PC-backstory-ism and also ran away from an arranged marriage, only to then go through with it anyway. It's all good, they suit each other and it was a fun but minor diversion in the game. I should really get around to drawing the two of them (her and her new hubby) together. Hopefully she doesn't die in the final arc of our game haha!

Lilian was introduced as a necromancer apprentice, but things aren’t that simple. She’s a tiefling currently inhabiting a body that isn’t originally hers, and we don't really know who it belonged to before or how she got it. Somehow, she ended up in it—and she plans to make the most of it. She made a pact with an entity called “The Foreigner” and now works to gather minions in its name. She always wears a simple black dress, keeping her look understated. A giant raven follows her everywhere. Her ultimate goal is immortality, and she’s willing to push limits to reach it

my character died last night after a chaotic going down twice and being healed before dying a true death. Made me realize, I've been playing D&D for 20 years. I started playing late '05, early '06. I've had so many characters die over that time. and it hasn't gotten boring. hasn't gotten monotonous. im still enjoying it. Here’s to another 20 🍺🍻

Edit: sorry if it seems like I'm rambling.

Hello! I'm currently playing in the game of a new DM who'd never DM'd before and had barely played D&D. But she was excited to run this game set it in her own homebrew world that she's been working on for a while, and the rest of us players are good friends with her, so we were all eager to play together. The group is a mix of completely new players and veteran players. We've played about 8 sessions so far, and the campaign has been a lot of fun and between each session, our DM is getting better and better with running roleplay scenarios and exploration.

Unfortunately, I can't say the same with combat. Here's some things the DM's been doing:

1. When our party was around 3rd level, our DM introduced a DMPC, a Fighter, who started at 7th level. We're now at 7th level ourselves, but the DMPC has continued to level up beyond our level. In most fights, he's doing the bulk of the damage (like 60–80 per hit), and the rest of us have largely fallen into support roles by default.
2. Because the DMPC hits so hard, the DM has had to scale enemies up massively to compensate. Last session we fought a custom boss with somewhere around 700+ HP, AC in the mid-20s, multiple legendary actions and resistances, saving throw bonuses pushing +15, and attacks hitting for big damage (20+) on multiple strikes per turn. She told us afterward it was adapted from a CR24 stat block. One of our players couldn't land a single hit the entire fight because she couldn't beat a very high DC on a save.
3. One of the PCs is a few levels higher than everyone else.
4. Multiple combats have been between massively overpowered NPCs (on both sides) fighting each other. As in, the DM saying she rolled 40+ to hit, characters with 30+ AC and doing 200 damage per hit.
5. The DM introducing new mechanics to "counter" some of our tactics. After a combat where we'd been very careful to play around opportunity attacks, the DM announced that the next boss had multiple reactions and could take opportunity attacks seemingly at random, like if a player tried to grapple the boss or steal something.

None of the other players have really said anything, but I can tell that with each combat, especially the last one, it's gotten more and more demoralizing, especially with the newer players who haven't really gotten the chance to get familiar with D&D combat.

Any advice on how to approach my DM? She's a really good friend of mine and I don't want to step on her toes or be That Annoying Player.

EDIT: thanks everyone for the advice! one additional question I have: if my DM turns out to be receptive to being given feedback, what advice/resources can I give her to help her out?

Hii everyone!!

As part of the latest poll, I decided to expand on the Steampunk Tanks I created last year — and it just so happens that this post goes live on my birthday!! You can find the full map collection for free here at my Patreon.

With the discovery of new ways to harness energy and magic in your world, brilliant minds have been hard at work crafting a powerful new generation of war machines. Designed to overrun shield and sword alike, these vehicles may still be somewhat primitive compared to the mightiest spells, but they represent some of the most formidable technological threats your setting can offer. These tanks and APCs stand as true challenges for any army that dares to face them.

This map pack includes four different military tank variants: two combat-focused models and two transport-oriented versions.

It also features a special addition: the restoration of one of these tanks into a portable home!!

Your players may come across the abandoned carcass of one such machine, its engine partially intact but buried beneath a thick layer of dust. It appears to be an old heavy model that took a devastating hit to its cannon and suffered additional damage to its control systems. It has been looted, leaving behind only scraps, broken components, and a crude attempt to reignite the engine using improvised sticks, levers, and an old helm.

With some repairs — whether by hiring an expert or adapting it themselves — the tank can be transformed into a mobile base for the party.

With further time, effort, and investment, it can evolve into a proper traveling home, filled with detailed interiors and even an additional floor, turning it into a fully functional house on wheels.

These tanks are sturdy enough to crush small trees and powerful enough to traverse most terrain changes (within reasonable limits). They are equipped with a rear winch capable of lifting up to five tons — enough to pull the tank out of difficult situations. Some versions include a small boat attached to the winch, which can be detached using a lever located near the lower engine (Level 0).

All of these vehicles and their mechanics will be integrated into an upcoming expansion of William O'Law's Guide to Crafting and Equipment Overhauling, includeng its next demo.

This expansion will introduce the Fabricator, an add-on to the Blacksmith class that allows previously crafted items to be reproduced in shorter timeframes. It will also debut a new Prestige Class: The Sieger, accompanied by a firearms add-on and a full siege weaponry and mechanics system, with tanks becoming one of the ultimate features accessible to new class.

I’ve kept the logo as unobtrusive as possible so you can easily remove it if you prefer <3. However, the best way to support my work is by becoming a Chronomancer Patron or purchasing the Non-Watermark version, which is currently on sale at the time of release.

I also tried to keep the lighting as neutral as possible, but if there’s enough interest, I can work on day/night cycle versions for all of them.

I truly hope you enjoy this set as much as I enjoyed creating it. The original tank was one of the very first maps I ever made, and this collection feels like a love letter to my younger map-maker self.

Love you all, and see you in Monday’s news!! <3

So as the title says, I see commonly that people dislike running high level games and I'm just curious to see why and what people have to say. I see regularly that games rarely make it past level 12 much less lvl 20... as someone who's run multiple games to lvl 20 and even one that used epic legacy 3rd party content to run a fame to lvl 30, I find high lvl games rather fun to run... so I'm obviously a little biased on my view.
