    Looking for scenarios/campaign with little combat (to play with kids) any system

    I had a look at bubblegumshoe and it comes with one adventure. Maybe i'll try that or the supplement for "no thanks evil" as that also has a fully fledged scenario. I'll also check out the other suggestions from this thread. Thanks for the advice!

    Looking for scenarios/campaign with little combat (to play with kids) any system

    I’m looking for scenarios/campaign with little combat (to play with kids aged 11/12) for any system. I’ve played the traditional kinda of rpgs where they’re quite combat heavy and thats great for adults/teens but my kids aren’t very interested in combat. So i’m looking for recommendations - i’m...

    what's the new innovative RPG that's going to change everything?

    Awesome! Thanks for all that info - I'll check out those games (and Blades in the Dark, Song of Swords and Inspectres, mentioned in other posts). Re Star Wars dice - I played one campaign of edge of the empire and really liked how the dice had the "success with disadvantage" and "failure with...

    what's the new innovative RPG that's going to change everything?

    I got back into RPGs with 5e and though "wow, this is incredible - everything's so streamlined and well thought out!" ...then I started adding in 13th age tools (one unique thing, icons, etc) and thought "this is amazing!". Lately I've been playing more narrative RPGs like FATE, dungeonworld...

    High Magic & Low Cunning: Battle Scenes for Five Icons

    5 out of 5 rating for High Magic & Low Cunning: Battle Scenes for Five Icons I looked around for another product like this and couldn't find anything else. I took a bit of a risk on this as I wasn't able to find the table of contents to see if the battles would work for me. I've got to say I'm...

    Recommend me a book of fantasy battles to drop into a campaign (any system)

    I'm playing a dungeon world campaign in baldur's gate and running a game in a massive city gives the players *so* many options... Do they burgle the powerful wizard in the high tower? Do they clear out the monsters living in the sewers? Do they delve into the mountain at the heart of the...

    D&D 5E Will we see more 5e campaigns from WOTC like Curse Of Strahd? (eg focus on investigation vs combat)

    Awesome! Sounds great, thanks for the recommendation. I'll check it out.

    D&D 5E Will we see more 5e campaigns from WOTC like Curse Of Strahd? (eg focus on investigation vs combat)

    Ahhh well, at least we had ravenloft. Anyone have any other campaigns that they can recommend that encourage diplomacy vs murderhobo-ing? Enworld published "ZEITGEIST: The Gears of Revolution" and I read the first scenario of that and it seemed pretty promising... I really like being on the...

    D&D 5E Will we see more 5e campaigns from WOTC like Curse Of Strahd? (eg focus on investigation vs combat)

    I've played most of the 5e campaigns from WOTC (Lost Mine, Princes of the Apocalypse, Into the Abyss, Curse of Strahd) and I *really*, like the Curse of Strahd because of its focus on investigation/atmosphere over raw combat. Add in how well all of the story threads tie together, random...

    Curse of Strahd

    5 out of 5 rating for Curse of Strahd I've just finished my first session of this and it's hands down all the players favourite 5e adventure from WOTC so far. Everything in the campaign drives the story forward - the random encounters are all interesting and have direct ties to the story and...

    D&D 5E CoS: Thoughts on starting at level 1 with Death House or level 3 on main adventure?

    thanks for the feedback everyone! I think we'll go straight to level 3 and the main story. I'd rather have a shorter campaign than a longer one since we bailed out half way through OotA as the characters were a bit fatigued with the underdark. If we make this one relatively short then we'll...

    D&D 5E CoS: Thoughts on starting at level 1 with Death House or level 3 on main adventure?

    Hi, I'm starting the Curse of Strahd in a few weeks with my players and am trying to decide starting at level 1 with Death House or level 3 on the main adventure. Has anyone DMed the Death House? How was it? Have players enjoyed it? Do you see it as a Necessary Starting Point or just a way to...

    D&D 5E Will we realistically see a 5e campaign set in Eberron from WOTC?

    I've been DMing the WOTC 5e campaigns and really enjoying them. It's nice to be on the same major releases as many other players and to be able to hit up forums/etc and see so much feedback/advice/etc for the adventures. I've read the old Eberron source books from previous editions and the...

    Awesome! I'll check that out - any standout ones in there?
