D&D Court: Reaction Snatchers, Grappling Gripes and the Super Rude Druid (w/ Danielle Radford!)
Summary
The Supreme Crit Justices rule on four D&D disputes: whether a legendary action forces an attack without a reaction, if a corgi cleric suffers exhaustion from wine, if a BBEG must guess spell levels for Counterspell, and if wild shaping escapes grapples. The panel debates rules versus table vibe, ultimately siding with players on mechanics but criticizing repetitive tactics and rude behavior. They assign humorous punishments involving Roombas and dog wine.
