Hasn't this been out for years? Glad to see it getting attention, it is a really rich source.

I'm all aboard the dice bags. I love Black Oak Workshop's stuff. They're great little presents and just plain fun.

That's a good plan, let the players find their niches now that they understand the game more. One thing I think we didn't say out loud: you are a player too. Make sure what you plan is fun for you too! If you are excited it will help your players be excited.

So how do you set up a doom cult over many sessions? Start with a basic series of enemies by CR. At low levels players can deal with weak things like kobolds, goblins, and some humanoids in the books. These are the guys doing basic grunt work for evil plots. Thieving to get cash. Kidnapping...

You got this. Keep asking yourself questions and be ready to grow. Remember that it is okay for some things to be unfinished. Only the stuff for your next session or two needs real polishing. Maybe have some solid ideas for what is next but don't spend too much time on them too early. It...

I can't help you break book addictions entirely, but a couple of not awful microtransaction games can help scratch the itch when it is light. Or a feature or two from DnDbeyond for those of us who play. I quite liked Fizbans, but agree that reviews read more and more like ad copy

Whoever is in charge of packaging design for these products is the real highpoint of the line. Great stuff. Evocative and making great use of cardboard to sell contents.

The alternate covers do not feel much like the alternate covers for the coreset or other alt covers so far. Very on the fence about these. I guess they wanted a new theme since 2 out of the 3 of these books already had alt covers?

How appropriate, you fight like a lagomorph dairy farmer.

The adventure looks like it will have a strong streak of duality, or perhaps triplicate in Hither, Thither, and Yon.

Managed to read through the Player's version already (comes with). Some solid ideas, and definitely a horrific place. Much scarier than the North is in Rime for sure!

I am very curious if the colors would pop better if a shiny varnish was applied.

Addendum: I've used tons of creatures from the Tomb of Beasts and Creature Codex (and one was my submission from the KS!) and I love them. They are a little wonky but that is what makes the game fresh again. I'd love to see more of Matt Colville's ideas in monster manuals as he's the only one...

I've DM'd, played, and bought tons of Kobold Press so that's my background here. Kobold Press has been in operation for a very long time. I don't see them being the new Paizo because, honestly, they don't have the business chops Paizo's founder Lisa does. But... Their materials are...
