@e56cd906 I keep the blog restricted to monster tactics and book announcements. Which is why I've begun thinking lately that it may be necessary to start a second blog.
Something I haven't been able to put my finger on before now that bugs me about the #DnD2024 / #OneDnD / #5E2E material is that it's dismantling the playstyle flexibility of the 2014 Player's Handbook.
With that book alone, you can play wild high fantasy, anchored high fantasy, low fantasy … the whole spectrum is available to you.
From Tasha's onward, though, you're playing wild high fantasy, period. People with animal heads are commanding swarms of spectral bees and that's just everyday life.
The eye monger is yet another head-scratcher in what’s turning into a whole series of head-scratchers in Boo’s Astral Menagerie. A large, durable brute, it’s saddled with a plodding flying speed of only 20 feet. How is it supposed to catch targets in order to bite them?
