FGDaze has arrived!

I know you guys need more gaming and we love to deliver!

FGCon is the flagship Online Role Playing Convention for Fantasy Grounds and the second biggest online convention running. But we can only run FGCon twice a year and we miss you all in between! So today we are launching FGDaze! 

FGDaze is a one day event that will run every 2 months in between FG Con. That means we are adding 4 more events to your Gaming Calendars!

FGDaze1 will run on Saturday June 27th!

FGDaze will be organised and run entirely on the Forums and Calendar here. 

How do I participate?

GMs please post your games in the Game Calendar using the below as an example and keep these points in mind:

  • All games start on Saturday (whereever you are is ok!)
  • Our primary Aim is to provide more opportunity to new players to get a game and meet other gamers
  • Advertise your Game in the FGDaze1 Games thread initially and then advertise it far and wide
  • Your Campaign name must begin with [FGDaze]
  • Post your game in the Game Calendar and set and confirm the game time - dont leave it to a vote
  • Games will use Text Chat or the Community TeamSpeak Server
  • For those GMs comfortable with teaching new players - please encourage new players in your Calendar Post

GMs please note that Full License GMs will get bumped to Ultimate License GMs on FGDaze Weekends - thanks Smiteworks!

D&D Errata - Player's Handbook

A new printing of the Player’s Handbook corrects some typos while clarifying a few rules.

No matter how much orc blood and dragon sweat the team poured into making the fifth edition of D&D, a few errors slipped past us when the Player’s Handbook was published last summer. With the incredibly positive response the new core rules have experienced across the world, we have the opportunity to correct those mistakes in the latest printing. It is normal in publishing to correct typos, omissions, and misstatements in later printings of a book. The corrections in the new printing of the Player’s Handbook are of that sort. We’re very proud of the game as it is. We have merely cut words that shouldn’t be there, added some that should have been there, and clarified some rules.

If you’re interested in checking out what’s changed and have already purchased a copy of the PH, we have prepared a one-page PDF that explains the changes. If you’re familiar with past errata documents for D&D, this one is a bit different. Rather than detail every word that’s changed, the document tells you how a particular rule is supposed to work. This approach is meant to make the document easy to use in play.

The changes represented in the errata document have been integrated into the text of new printings of the Player’s Handbook, as well as into the corresponding sections of the Basic Rules PDF available here.

You can download the errata here: PLAYER'S HANDBOOK ERRATA
