I'm going to be starting a new game of 5e soon, and I need to break the game as early as possible.

What are some ways to break the game in early play? I'm talking levels 1-4. I know that people have come up with all sorts of power builds for 20th level, but I know for a fact this game isn't going to last that long.

Why do you want to break it?
>>
I find its easier to break the GM then it is to break the game.

First off: fuck you you powergaming faggot.

Second: Warlock with Imp familiar is pretty good at low levels. You'll most likely dominate any scene you damn well please, as the imp is great at infiltration/scouting as well as fighting, and you got the social stuff covered yourself. And you don't run out of spells. It doesn't scale tho.

How do I git gud at making dungeons?
26 posts and 9 images submitted.

Think about what the structures were before they were dungeons.

Research the blueprints of old temples, cities, etc.

Think of how time and the elements have affected them

Think about how the various inhabitants over the years have changed, customized, destroyed, or altered them

Maybe it was an ancient temple dedicated to a water goddess, but in the five thousand years since its construction, the land has become an arid waste, and all the mechanisms that require functioning waterwheels to operate don't work, and the PCs need to find alternate means of moving various parts of a megastructure around.

There are literally several books called "Dungeon Masters Guide." You might even own one.

What do you think they are for?
>>
>>46440608
add lots of encounters, add some interesting fluff you can expand into a quest, add cool traps, give the dungeon an organic feeling, and by organic i mean make it feel as though it had been around for ages and things actually happened there

Wizkids is putting out a 28mm Heroic scale, pre-primed plastic 160 figure, generic fantasy miniature line in Q4 2016. MSRP is $3-$4 USD per figure. I assume these will be PVC like bones to keep material costs form. I'm intrigued completion with Reaper is s good thing.

Pre-primed? Either they're gonna have to put a lot of work into the mould lines, or that's going to be somewhat undone work.

The render looks ok I guess, but renders aren't worth much. Proof's in the polymer.
>>
here is the press release:

Hillside, NJ — March 16, 2016 – Leading board game and collectible miniatures creator WizKids today announced a brand new line of unpainted miniatures, featuring more than 150 unique fantasy sculpts, set to be released in Q4 2016.
The collection will include iconic characters, creatures, and even scene-building elements, all available in three types of specialty packs that will each contain a variety of sculpts:

Hero Packs will contain both a low-level and high-level sculpt of the same featured character.
Designed with army-building in mind, Monster Packs will contain 1-3 miniatures with different poses of a single monster.
Item Packs will contain scenery and items for detailing adventures.
The highly detailed miniatures feature an enhanced sculpting process, which highlights minute elements, and includes deep cut surface detail and scaled features for easier hand painting. They also come in dynamic and exciting poses, are pre-primed with Acrylicos Vallejo paint, and are ready to go directly out of the box. Customize the look and feel of your characters and campaign like never before.

The new line is set to launch in late 2016 and will be available at friendly local game stores world-wide.

I did have trouble getting paint to stick to Reaper Bones even after washing in hot soapy water. I had to do an ink wash or gesso on them before I could get paint to adhere properly. Spray primer never seems to set up 100% dry on Bones either.

Is it just me or does this CYOA give you so many points it just becomes pointless? You already have so much you can take more than half of all the options, but then it also gives you drawbacks to get even more.

7 years ago, in the year 2136, a game called The Creators Battlefield, which took advantage of virtual reality and allowed everyone to create their own virtual fighter with almost no restraints. This game changed the competitive gaming scene in unimaginable ways. Your father and yourself bonded over your interest in CB as he built his career as Atmor, AKA. the King of CB, and went undefeated for almost 5 years winning both online and live tournaments. While you couldn't play due to the age restrictions on usage of the VR gear you remained on the sidelines cheering him on as his no.1 fan. But two years ago your father disappeared without a trace, nobody knows where he is or why he's even gone.

You decided that the best way to find answers is to start from the bottom and move your way through Creators Battlefield tourneys until you find some clue on where your father may be, or in worst case, what happened to him. Today is the day you start your training and create your first avatar.


[Welcome to the Creators Battlefield, a CYOA story based in a future where gaming has evolved to make your very mind the controller.]

[You will help decide the actions of the protagonist in their crusade to find his father and take the gaming world by storm]

Our games aren't a democracy anon. The GM is always right to move things along in an orderly quick fashion. Look it up later and change it, or house rule it how it was going. A handwave here or there doesn't mean you're playing without rules.

It seems to be a place of pure hedonism at this point, no matter how hard people there work it's all for the sake of pleasure. This applies to other countries in the first world certainly but none to the extent of America. Will their Hedonism lead to a giant soul monster buttraping them all in the afterlife, while Hawaii and Alaska become aloof douchenozzles?

Not bad for 30$

It's a bit simplistic, it's really a kids game in the vein of heroscape. Quite enjoyable, and the tiles and minis are almost exactly like 'scape
>>
>>46444165
Heroscape always looked fun, shame it died.
This doesn't sound like a ringing endorsement though.
>>
>>46444165
>It's a bit simplistic
Is this simplistic for a strategy board game? I never played Heroscape but I found the rules extremely vague and confusing, and often kind of arbitrary and contrived. The book it comes with doesn't explain engagement, for example, at all, despite having references to it, and I find that mechanic to be so contrived me and the guys I play it with have a hard remembering to do it just because it doesn't come naturally to me and feels like some sort of concession to melee units. But maybe people who are used to these kinds of games find it more comfortable.

I do think it's fun to play, but I find with my lack of experience with the genre that it was hard to pick up and get into. I'm still not sure we play it 100% correctly. And there's lots of holes in the rulebook because I think it assumes familiarity with Heroscape.

what level would a party of 6 have to be to fight a level 12 shaman and a level 8 wizard

Welcome to Eternal, the alt-history game.

Here's the scenario:

You are teleported back to the year 6000 BC

>About 3000 years before writing was invented

You get to bring the clothes on your back and one additional item (something that would cost less than your life savings to buy)

>Hurr durr I bring an aircraft carrier full of everything lol

Assume you also teleport with an ok immune system for the time period and location.

The (recommended, I'm not forcing anything on you guys) goal is to become the absolute ruler of the world by 2016 AD.

Rules:

>Don't be an asshat

>Or a smartass

>Please be good

>Rolling 1, 2, 3, or 4 decides the action for our character.

First post to get 1, 2, 3, or 4 decides the item brought back and location.

Don't pick Antarctica or some shit.

(This doesn't count if it rolls 1-4)

Here are some example/suggestion items:

A book

A gun with bullets

A bag full of corn, potato and soya bean seeds.
>>
>>46442509
Roman occupation of Britannia
>>
>>46442899

Sorry, but the game starts at
>6000 BC.

If you roll 1-4, you can pick Britannia though.

You still need to pick an item as well.
