I’m looking for an adventure set in a temple, monastary or library or substantially featuring a one of these? It has to be a working temple/monastary/library, not ruined. Staffed by folks. Ideally of a good or neutral good. Any edition of D&D or D&D adjacent. Ideally a good adventure. Any...

No this isn’t in the D&D forum because it’s not about the PHB or game rules. The question is which Magic systems in fiction - written or screen - do you like? By principles, I mean conventions, and restrictions that put limits on magic and make it interesting and engaging to you? I thought I’d...

Anyone played Masks of Nyarlathotep? It’s pegged as one of the best published campaigns of all time but I don’t know much about it? Anyone DMd or played in it in any system and what was your experience?

The Alexandrian blog and JA himself come in for a lot of flack partly because of the style but I do feel he says some pretty smart things even if you have to sift through fair bit to get to it. For instance one of the distilled pieces of wisdom he shared in his post about Avernus was… Design...

Between the various D&D groups I play in we seem to have ran or prepared to run most of the D&D campaigns released for 5e - Lost Mines, Descent into Avernus, Curse of Strahd, Tomb of Annihilation, Prince of the Apocalypse, Dragon Heist, Dungeon of the Mad Mage, Rime of the Frost Maiden, Out of...

Hey folks, just wanted to know your thoughts. I’m lucky enough to play in a few gaming sessions. One every Tuesday evening where I alternate campaigns with two different groups. A monthly weekend of face to face gaming and a monthly online session. The weeknight online sessions lasts about two...

I don’t have many people blocked, but occasionally when I think someone is getting pretty confrontational I do block folks. However one person in particular I have on bock has started quoting me in threads. Copying and pasting I guess. What the policy on this? Is it against the rules? It seems...

So I’m a big fan of published adventure campaigns. That will come as no surprise to anyone who sees my comments. I’m inherently lazy and not great at detail. I can solve problems but ask me to do any kind of dull or repetitive task and I get bored quick. So published adventures tick a lot of...

For a long time Historians had a tendency to focus on the great figures of history - The Great and Good whose deeds shaped society. Famous monarchs and generals, scientists and philosophers. In the later half of the 20th Century though, Marxist thought led to people thinking about the lives of...

There are a number of times in 5e products where high level NPCs (Jarlaxle Baenre, Strahd von Zarovich, Manshoon, Yeenoghu, Baphomet, The Xanathar etc etc) could come into contact with PCs that are substantially below their CR (1/2 to 1/3 their CR). I totally understand that PCs shouldn't be...

Whats that one song that brings something out of you. That hits the spot every time. That you go back to time and time again. For me it’s…

So I ran Odyssey of the Dragonlords all last year and the first half of this one and thoroughly enjoyed it. Was it perfect - no - but it was one of the most inspiring things I’ve read in a long long time! However in hindsight there are a few things I’d do differently. Campaign Structure The...

There is a long and storied tradition of running the original BG series’ as a single character without any companions for your second or third (or twelfth) run through. The companions quests are fun and there is a lot linked to them but BG3 is such a huge game there is a lot to enjoy outside of...

What do people think of this? A diverse pool of creatives based in Instanbul. Respectful of the all cultures involved in the period. A fascinating period in history. Beautiful production values if it comes close to the previous Historica Arcanum work (City of Crescent). The art on the...

Ryan, Cat, Andrew and Bob Stop Reading Now!!! So I have been thinking running a mash up of Golden Vault, Dragonheist and Undermountain for a long time… pretty much since each of these books came out. (With a little dash of Paizo's Curse of the Crimson Throne for spice). I've always loved the...

While the Enemy Within is the much lauded reprinted mega campaign for WFRP, 4e anyone who assumes this is the only thing the edition has to offer is missing out. Cubicle 7 chose the city of Ubersreik (of Vermintide fame) to drill into the detail of their setting. A city near the mountains in the...

With the release of Planescape in October set in the wonderful city of Sigil I’ll definitely be retuning to my IPad and Ragpickers square to remind myself of the world. Who else loved this game and why? For me it was the amazing characters - Ravel Puzzlewell, Morte, Dakkon, Triel...

There have been a lot of changes with WFRP 4th edition since it was released three years ago. Mainly through optional rules release in compilation supplements similar to Tasha’s and Xanathar’s. I’ve been asked what changes have been made. So I thought it was worth summarizing here in a few...

Hey folks. I’m looking to start a face to face campaign using the WFRP 4e rules which to be honest have a lot of crunch. Multiple conditions, weapons have lots of additional special rules, there are lots of talents that all affect tests in multiple ways. Not to mention psychology effects...
