    Eberron is coming to 5e, there's a playtest setting book out. Fingers crossed for Dark Sun next. There's an Eberron races UA out too.

    Just listening to a podcast, the 1974-1975 campaign in Boston had >20 players and the party had on average 40 hirelings. Sometimes dungeons were cleared just by sending in the army of hirelings.

    I refuse to hire any more help - Banjo ends up killing them all :pac::pac:

    How dare you!
    1. No money changed hands - they were companions, not hirelings!
    2. They both implied a threat to be intimate with character irrespective of her agreement and then expressed a complete lack of interest. And you know what Oscar Wilde said about non-consentual relations with a party of dwarven sex-priests...
    3. In fairness, if you're murdering 1 person because they pulled a knife and threatened you, when 5 more do it it stops being murder and starts being natural selection. And as for the rest...
    3. That witch left her immersion on. She knew the risks, and there's no material evidence tying Retula to that explosion.
    4. The Dragonborns wanted to get into a hole in the ground. They're now in a hole in the ground. A thank you would be nice.
    5. From a ballistics point of view, Fourier killed Mr H :'(

    I'm playing a Necromancer in another campaign. Never underestimate a swarm of low CR monsters.

    Yeah, it's surprising how powerful ganging up is in 1E, 2E and 5E even against powerful opponents. Always like when a lot of little guys can overwhelm a big guy.

    I'll be getting Danse Macabre next level which kind of limits me to 5 skeletons but they each get +10 to hit and do 1d6+12 damage.

    ooh, I can get Danse Macabre at L9... We could retire (again, in your case) - why can't real pensions be that dependable?

    The Eberron beta is outselling the newest edition of Warhammer Fantasy on DriveThruRPG, just shows how much more popular D&D is:

    5e must be closing in on 1,000,000 PHBs sold, there are articles from September 2017 saying they'd crossed 800,000. The Warhammer book is a preorder (why would anyone preorder a PDF?) so that might be affecting its placement.

    I think it's something put in place by Cubicle 7 so that people who bought the physical book get the PDF at the same time as those who just order the PDF of drivethru.

    Or I hope so, otherwise I'm pretty confused as well.

    Just checked, Cubicle 7's emails to the preordering customers have a rollout of a few days and they're afraid that if an email rolls out to a preorderer too late, they'll only be alerted after the PDF is generally available. Which tends to cause riots when it has happened to other punlishers.

    Hence everybody got alerted to the chance to buy this preorder.

    First time I've ever seen it on DriveThruRPG.
