    OK, now all the secrets are out. We know about Dust (Tomb of Annihilation) and Midway (Xanathar's Guide to Everything). Way back in November 2014, Mike Mearls said: Well, here we are, with releases revealed through the end of 2017. There are only one or two cats left in that original bag...

    I've been reading about wilderness hex crawls (see also this), and I'm inspired to use a hex map for some wilderness exploration. I've never worked with hex maps before. I'm trying to start by following the recommendations on page 14 of the 5th edition DMG: I'm having a little trouble...

    D&D 5E I think I finally get how hiding works
