Highs and Lows. You have 2D6 dice. someone rolls one die. And you see the result (let's say it rolls a 4) then the person has to guess if the next dice will be Lower, Higher, or equal. And you gain a point if you guess it right. the first to 5 win as you alternate between the two players. BUT if you guess the equal. You get 2 points.

Yeah it was funny, except it states that you choose when to take a bonus action during your turn, unless the bonus action's timing is specified. So, you can take a bonus action before an action or even before movement. So long as whatever bonus action you have selected clearly states it can be done as a bonus action and as long as nothing has deprived you of your ability to take actions as you need an action to make a bonus action. Still funny though. And, no I am not a rules lawyer just playing along with the sketch because that's something else that happens at games of DND, someone who challenges the DMs ruling and then pulls out the book and reads verbatim what it says only for the DM to say, "well I am the DM and this is my game so what I say goes."

"When you take the Attack action and attack with a light melee weapon that you’re holding in one hand, you can use a bonus action to attack with a different light melee weapon that you’re holding in the other hand." The Monk offhand attack and polearm master follow the same pattern. Note how in order to use a bonus action attack, you must first commit to using your main action as an attack, therefore it must be declared first.

@@AllNallplus true. But, for a caster they have spells that can be cast as bonus actions and those do not require an action to be made. But yes, as a monk or two-weapon fighting fighter/ranger you do need to make an action and hit to do that specific bonus action. So, yes while physical attackers need to make an action before a bonus action that is not the same for casters. Generally I do action before bonus action all the time just because it makes sense but I also have been playing a monk for the past 2+ years so it has become ingrained that that is the order of operations. However, casters can ignore the make action before bonus action ruling so long as the spell they cast can be cast as a bonus action.

You're the kind of DM I'd go for, but I'm unsure if I'm the kind of player you'd enjoy. XD I'm still very much a newb around any TTRPG, and for D&D have only been in one campaign so far. I had a mess of a character that wasn't created with D&D in mind and was just approximated as well as we could figure under pretty standard 5e options which came out as a warforged sorcerer with the wild magic origin (and an additional two character sheets I had to keep track of). For spells, I prioritized utility and versatility - and I was one of those players who then brought up science tricks to milk a little extra use out of them whenever I could. For example, I'm one of those players who figured out a way to (and successfully pulled it off) use Mage Hand to cause damage - I even killed a guy with it. I also managed to leave the DM pretty happy with how I made a friendly-petty-revenge thing he tried against me (for wanting to go check out where we'd be fighting shortly while everyone else was shopping for neat new gear) massively backfire on him. He made a local custom be something that would be upsetting to my character (while being something anyone else would hardly blink at). I made members of the cult we'd be fighting feel like engaging in that custom was heresy against their cult (specific circumstances made it work). Result: when we actually got to the fight, we had a LOT less enemies to deal with because so many were busy trying to fix/cover the "heresy" before their "god" arrived and got super pissed at them.

My friend Dmed a Christmas themed campaign for my other friend who usually DMs and doesn't get to play as much. I was asked if I wanted to join and I was like sure.

Same premise, Jeff Bezos lookalike hires our team of not-so-good-or-merry adventurers to get rid of santa. I played as a dwarf headhunter (ranger-hunter archetype). Our one-shot turned into a Tarantino movie with a cool end sequence. My character ate and then was force fed with magical intellect devouring cookies wich left him catatonic. (DM had to invent an antitode just so I don't have to sit there for 3 hours) We got some silly magical items, killed santa, killed the spirit of christmas and then we had the chance to wish for anything that fits into a 5×5×5 cube. So of course my character tried to take the swag and rushed and wished for a platinum cube exactly 5×5×5 ft. That, if I'm not mistaken is around 75 tons of platinum which is....82.6 million gold. So of course the evil samurai who arrived second tought "well I'm not letting this dirty dwarf try to get all of this to himself" so he attacked. During our battle, the third member of the group sheared some of the platinum, put it in his bag and then moved out with the only teleportation device we had on us. So the closing scene was the third member leaving Bezos's office with a large bag of platinum and thousands of gold, smiling and my dwarf sitting on a giant platinum cube firmly wedged into the ice of the north pole lighting a cigar over the crushed skull of the samurai.

Real Giant Demon shows up, and the guards stab it, and are hopelessly slaughtered. How the War Game DM Cheats...Real Giant Demon shows up, the guards run, take cover, begin fighting as efficiently and strategically as possible, minimizing losses, fortifying their positions, outflanking it and ignoring the party...and they call a priest, and start using ballista out of nowhere, and min-max their success, because the DM is metagaming and cheating...as Tactically and Strategically as possible.

Haven't ran into an illusionist in my games yet but if I do I already have rules to help codify making illusions work, especially in combat. If the illusion is animated, it will have an AC (though I'm still mapping out the exact calculation. Spell DC modified so it scales with armor better. like DC plus half spell mod rounded up. Or your spell score itself. Or Spell DC with double proficiency. Or have it go up at a certain level/alongside some ability). If I end up with a lower AC they still have to make thr investigation check to see the illusion, otherwise they'll think it just missed anyway. And since most dangerous creatures have an equal or greater movement speed to humanoids, mostly that aren't powerful heroes will most likely flee at first sight so they can dash.

TL;DR: The "Never made it past session 0" it pretty hard. My first ever time playing D&D, I found a group of people at a convention we decided to play after the convention was over, and play over Discord. I spent a lot of time and effort to build my character. We all lined up met each other's characters, did some roleplaying to prep for the adventure, got the quest details, started travel, end of Session 0. Session one comes, and the group voted yes to abandoning the campaign, 5 to 1. I had, what I thought, a cool copper descent Dragonborn Paladin lined up since we hadn't introduced a tank, and I was to introduce last. Breaking away from the cliché Lawful Good, I went Chaotic Good, he was a "turn a blind eye, within reason" kind of fellow. I put so much effort into this character that following week to prepare him for the campaign. I practiced his voice, spent a week writing a back story and making it a short story. . Had his personality down to his preferred meals. Did a lot of research into Norse Paganism and the virtues of Thor, as that was a God he followed, to justify his alignment. Just, overall really started to love this character and really wanted to bring him to life, but I have yet to get the chance.

Words cannot describe the love I have for my DM and party. Our DM is flexible and fair and along for all the insanity. Our party is funny, doodle the scenes as we play, and arrange music for every moment. I have never laughed more or had more fun. Finding a group that just flows really well together is the best.

I would say that the DM i usually play with tends to be a cool DM, as in he lets us do cool and creative things in sessions, last session we were fighting fish people underwater and i was playing a lokatha fighter. During the battle i threw a harpoon at the captain of the fish people in the area and i got it hooked in it'S chest, on my next turn (after it failed to remove the harpoon) i used the rome that was tied to my harpoon and with all my strength, swung the captain around like a flail, stroking at one of the soldiers for a Lot of damage, to balance his, i needed to win a athletics off (i won) and i had to use both of my attack actions on that turn, it was super sick and i was glad i was able to pull that off, which makes me want to do more creative things in the next session when i get the chance

Ok the first and only dnd session I’ve played so far was very much like the “cool campaign.” At one point, I was faced with a dragon, and when it started the whole “ who dares steal from me” thing, I said “ your mom.” I then proceeded to pickpocket it and run away.

Maybe i was too shy to get it going. I'm not sure but yeah. After half a year or so i quit that group because i didn't care for endless fighting. Haven't played since.

The "Only a Dungeon" one reminds me of a conversation I had with a friend. He talked to me a lot about D&D powerbuilds and feats, so I assumed that he knew a lot about the game. He asked me one day about the dungeons I used, and I told him that my campaigns (the ones I played in and the one I was writing/am currently DMing) are typically more exploration and story-based, so we spend a lot of time in the wilderness or in cities. He was stunned. That was how I learned that he had a physical, changeable dungeon map that he played with and used minis for, and that he had no experience with the paper-pencil-imagination style of playing. He'd never played in a world straight out of someone's mind, including his own. He's not in my campaign right now because it's full and he has a busy schedule, but I'm going to drag him into one of my games someday.
