Thought Eater Podcast: Even More Unpopular D&D Opinions

So last week on Five Minute Friday, I shared an unpopular D&D opinion and encouraged others to do the same. I got a few calls from some of the other folks podcasting here on Anchor, so today I am sharing them on the podcast. I also throw in one more unpopular opinion of my own.

Thought Eater Podcast: Five Minute Friday: My Unpopular D&D Opinion

Howdy all! Over at the Ruins of Murkhill blog and around social media this week, I spotted folks sharing their "unpopular D&D opinions". Well, today for Five Minute Friday, I'm giving you mine! If you want to call in on the show and share yours, I will play it on a future episode!

Free and Pay-What-You-Want 5e DMs Guild Highlights: Week Ending 10.26.19

Every week, talented creators upload Dungeons and Dragons products to the DMs Guild, pricing them as free or pay-what-you-want in order to reach customers. Dozens of new free and pwyw products are added each week alone. It is a lot to sort through. My hope is that highlighting a few of each week's best supplements will help the designers get the attention they deserve.

You can find previous posts in this series HERE.


The Unquiet Dead from Michael Martin


This is a really nice collection of eleven new undead creatures to torment your players with, including suggestions for placement and tactics. Professional quality.


Divine Prayers from Damian Steele



4e is basically a huge untapped resource for 5e. Take away the formatting, and the editions have a lot in common. This is a conversion of over 700 divine 4e powers into 5e abilities. Steele has done a lot of work bringing 4th edition elements into 5e; see also Arcane Incantations and Martial Exploits.


The Ruinous Islands from Tim Bannock



Dumplings & Dragons from Matthew Bannock and Tim Bannock



As I have mentioned before, I love one page adventures. No need to lug an extra hardback around; you have all you need for a session or more of gaming on a single page. These are excerpts from a larger work, The Lonely Scroll Adventure Contest, so check it out if you want more of these.


Stolen for Stitches from Kelly Mangerino



This free Frankenstein-inspired adventure is perfect for Halloween one-shot. I was impressed by the tight editing and maps. I will be on the lookout for more stuff from Mangerino.

Humpday Blog-O-Rama 7.3.19

Blogs are an integral, vital part of the RPG hobby. They serve as incubators for new games, sounding boards for fresh ideas, and platforms for up-and-coming talent. They keep "forgotten" games alive, foster discussions, and build communities.

Every Wednesday on the Thought Eater podcast and blog, I take a look at what is going on in the vibrant RPG blog scene. Check out previous Humpday Blog-O-Rama posts HERE.
