The new vehicles section of the game rules is amazing, and the separation of component hit points is perfect. But I was wondering if anyone knows if we will get access to a Vehicle Builder like the other Homebrew builders we have access to.
Currently I am using a monster to represent a spelljammer I designed, but being able to make it like the other vehicles would be much nicer and easier for the players to manage.
With the release of Ghosts of Saltmarsh, I’d hope to see Vehicle creation something that makes its way into the Homebrew section, similar to making NPC/Monster stat blocks, for the party’s ships, and those of enemies / allies.
I’d previously used the Airship from Storm King’s Thunder in a campaign, and that’s also the type of thing that would greatly benefit from a thematically consistent stat block that DMs could create and share with their players.
Hello everyone.

I believe it's coming, with no defined date. I too would also like to be able to make custom vehicles

It is planned. I don't think it will take long (relative to normal DDB timelines anyway).

Anyone heard anything new about this?
Still itching to build ship stat blocks for seafaring campaigns!
With vehicles stat blocks now present and accessible (correct?) this shouldn't be far off?
Might be worth asking on Twitch during a Dev talk, if the thread / query isn’t getting any attention.
Don't bump threads if you have nothing to add. But actually, what is taking so long? I didn't think it would take this long.
Don't tell me they are going to wait until the homebrew revamp or monster builder updates...
I came here searching for a vehicle builder as well. Any updates, 2019 people?
Nope. And it isn't on the short term roadmap either. That means it won't be before this fall, but more than likely wont be this year...
Awww... Welp, thanks for the reply and sorry for not adding anything new to the thread lol
