homebrew reviews and mentions

• The Lost Universe NASA's Tabletop Role-Playing Game Adventure
  1 project | news.ycombinator.com | 7 Mar 2024

  As a long-time play-by-poster of D&D, yes, it still dominates the TTRPG crowd. I branch out to other game systems myself, but always have at least two or three D&D games going. The game itself is not hated, just the company, and there are enough free resources available online that anyone can play the game without giving WotC a single dime. As far as we're concerned, the game belongs to the players and WotC are nothing more than Interlopers.

  Check out https://5e.tools/ for an example of a good free, self-hostable resource.

• Como vocês lidam com a linguagem no Rpg?

• Automatic DND 5e Statblock to GCS File Conversion
  2 projects | /r/gurps | 10 Jul 2023

  Please let me know if there are any issues and I'll fix them. The json files for 5e.tools are a little bit irregular so you may run into some errors. Also let me know if there is anything I should change about the conversion method. I'm new to GURPS so some thing may be a little bit unbalanced. This is supposed to be a rough conversion, not a perfect conversion.

• Can anyone recommend a website that formats Markdown using the most recent changes?
  1 project | /r/homebrewery | 6 Jul 2023

  I used to love using 5e.tools's Homebrew Builder to enter the details of whatever statblock I was working on, then port the Markdown over to Homebrewery. It was so easy! But it looks like 5e.tools still uses the old Markdown code and hasn't updated to match Homebrewery's changes. This makes statblock format just a bit wonky. Is anyone aware of a website that offers a similar function and is also up to date with Homebrewery?

• Multiclassing Advice
  1 project | /r/BaldursGate3 | 1 Jul 2023

  For planning to multiclass, I would recommend this website https://5e.tools which is a great free resource for all kinds of 5e tabletop mechanics. You will be able to see what abilities your main class is going to get at higher levels, allowing you to plan a multiclass where you don’t miss out on them. Now it’s possible that Larian will make some of the high level abilities available sooner, they aren’t sticking to tabletop rules 100% but have been pretty faithful to them overall.

• ULPT: What are some unethical websites that you benefit from?
  2 projects | /r/UnethicalLifeProTips | 30 Jun 2023

  5e.tools - All 5e D&D official content can be found there. Pair it with the Plutonium Importer for FoundryVTT, and you got yourself all books for free.

• New DM and Lost things
  1 project | /r/wildbeyondwitchlight | 29 Jun 2023

  You might take a look through 5e.tools and maybe keep it to common or uncommon items. It might even give you a baseline to create your own items and riff off "real" items.

• Do I need the dnd players handbook?
  1 project | /r/BaldursGate3 | 29 Jun 2023

  Well, there's some videos on Youtube with tutorials, but the Player's Handbook is always an option. I recommend too the 5e tools website, there you can find almost every information about the game. If you have any specific question, you can always send it here on r/dnd and someone should help you.

• How do I use Homebrewery on 5etools?
  1 project | /r/homebrewery | 28 Jun 2023

  I have been using many homebrews on Homebrewery, and I have been using 5e.tools when DMing, but I can't find a way to put the monsters from homebrews on Homebrewery into 5etool's bestiary. Does anyone have a solution I can use?
