Merric I've read your reviews for years and you are very tolerant of modules. Of the 5e era I would call Curse of Strahd a classic. My run of it was all time. Perfect size for a contained campaign. I'd run that again. I'd also include Storm Kings Thunder but as a campaign product. The plot...

OP what did you end up going with? When I run bm I use my homerules printed out as a zine booklet.

I like the OED Expanded rule. Banish the Unhallowed: Present the relic & recite the liturgy of life & death 1d6 + (Cleric Level – 5) = highest Hit Die of Undead that must flee or cower while liturgy continues. 2d6 creatures are affected (lowest Hit Die first). If Cleric’s level 4 more than...

I try to roll in the open as much as I can and remember. With online dice rollers though that can be tedious. The reason is that I have fudged far too often as a DM. Its a terrible headspace to fall into. You find yourself adjusting things up to make an encounter more intense then dialing it...

I've more or less done this in my campaign but found that players focus on one thing and forget the old thing. They are also generally happy to follow clues toward places so you want to be careful of overloading too many options that seem really similar.

I like that! I think emphasizing the cults, some sense of their actions and then discovering the rivarly between them is the way to make it sing.

I like having the spellbooks for sure. It would be nice to have the Monster books combined.

Thanks to you both! Ive combed through Guy's site and haven't found just what I'm looking for. Just throwing it out there in case there some others out there in pdfland.

The standard introduction is for the party to poke around the barrowmounds up top. It can get pretty harrowing up there with wandering monsters. My suggestion for barrowmaze is to do a little development on the factions yourself so that you can use them well when they appear. You might...

Hello all. I'm hoping to find someone who has made full character sheet write ups of the pregens in the back of the Tomb of Horrors D&D module. I'm going to be running it at a game club soon and want to be able to give out handouts. Thanks!

DCC for sure. I've had the wildest things happen with that game.

I rather, I do run my own hack when I've DMd Barrowmaze. Lots of fun.

I'd do S&W personally if I didn't run my own hack.

I signed up for a legacy narrative horror viking themed miniature featured boardgame called "Hel". The whole company spectacularly imploded. Major disappointment as the minis looked neat but looking back I probably would never have played it.
