“@SirMcCatz: how do you deal with new players and make them roleplay more?”
Give it time. Takes a while for newbs to get into real RP.

Adventure League Store fee
@RyanHiller1I was hoping for advice on a wpn store Charging for encounters/AL hosting?you guys ever seen this? Ideas or links appreciated store's call – some places need D&D to make money, or they'd run trading card game drafts in its place

So my PCs want to use the swords their hobgoblin foes used but the attack bonus is +3, do I scale that back for PCs?
@fatherbarndonso my PCs want to use the swords their hobgoblin foes used but the attack bonus is +3. Do I scale that back for PCs? not sure I understand question – long swords don't come with an attack bonus
— Mike Mearls (@mikemearls) March 14, 2015
@fatherbarndonthen I misunderstood the monster manual. The +4 is hobgoblin related, not the longsword has a +4 to attack. I understand now. XD yeah, it can definitely be confusing

@mikemearls thank you for the help though. Still learning the ropes of Dming but loving it so far!
