@eriksaltwellmygroup wants more tactical feel. Thought i’d add dmg bonus if hit w adv-maybe adv on dmg roll?U test that? Gotchas?Other ideas? that works, but i'd apply it to both sides, PCs and monsters. should about even out, with an advantage for the monsters.

Knocking with a spell
@unclefunsoncan a caster knock a creature out with a spell or only melee attacks can knock someone out? spells lack the control needed for that, IIRC

Ed’s tagline
Writing? Capture a character with a tagline. Example: Menacing fantasy guardsman saith: "‘Nice doggie’? There ARE no nice doggies."

Steed intelligence
@AbyssionKnightFor Find Steeds intelligent mounts, since they understand and obey you, does that mean you can control them and let them attack? they can attack, but keep in mind that Int 6.

Speak with Dead creature
@CotRD_MarvenIs a corpse affected by Speak with Dead considered a creature in regards to other spells such as Zone of Truth? i'd say no – isn't a true creature, just a fabrication of its memories

Assassin critical Magic Missile
@JeremyECrawford Can my Rogue's Assassinate cause my Wand of Magic Missile to crit against surprised creatures?
— Kevin B (@kevinaskevin) June 16, 2015
No, since only attack rolls can score critical hits. https://t.co/tHhKtoNcKB
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) June 17, 2015
@kevinaskevin Assassinate skill sez “any hit you score against a creature that is surprised is a crit hit” Does ‘score’ mean attack roll?
"Score" has no special meaning in that context. The critical hit is part of the rule on attack rolls (PH, 194).
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) June 17, 2015
@kevinaskevinNothing I read on PHB 194/6 sez crits are exclusive to attack rolls. I get if they are but I just don’t read it that way.
That's the intent, and why the rule is under the heading "Attack Rolls."

Villainy comes in many forms
@ChrisPerkinsDnD You're a master DM. Got any advice for world building that isn't in the DM hand book for 5e?
— The Brotagonist (@TheWrathfulBro) June 15, 2015
Remember that villainy comes in all forms. Make your next villain a sentient bag of devouring. Nyom nyom! https://t.co/fkVt1JpzC2

Twin Thunderwave – D&D Errata
Here's the test: is a spell capable of targeting more than one creature? If yes, the spell can't be twinned. https://t.co/AWBo4AaLOk
— Jeremy Crawford (@JeremyECrawford) June 11, 2015
@BrailSaysThunderwave doesnt call things Targets, Find Steed + Thunderwave = good to go?
Nope. See the PH (p. 203) for the distinction between "only you" and an effect originating from you.
