Dear Gary, Which Race is Best?

Our tabletop RPG advice column, Dear Gary, returns with these questions:

  • Dear Listener writes: Dear Gary, I run games (often one shots) that are made accessible to a rather wide pool of players, and sometimes get an unexpectedly large group. How do I keep everyone consistently engaged in the session and off their phones at higher player counts?
  • Brian writes: Dear Gary, could you discuss the main house rules you use for your 5e/D&D games? Have you been inspired to add any rules from other game systems to your D&D games?
  • Brian writes: Dear Gary, what are your thoughts on game systems that use species (or race) as class, such as basic/expert D&D (from 80s), Dungeon Crawl Classics, or others?
  • Brian writes: Dear Gary, what is a game you have been eager to play but not gotten to the table?
