    Dungeons & Dragons: Heroes of the Borderlands - First Impressions

    Just got this in physical and digital formats. I was really surprised at how much stuff is in this box. I have all the other starter sets and this one is a monster. Maps are gorgeous and the tokens are nice. Read over the content and it seems fun. What's interesting is that one of our DMs...

    Thundercats Are On The Move! Thundercats Are Loose! [Updated]

    Its been a minute since I've seen the original TV series, but would say its comparable. Has backstory on the Mutants and I love what they have done with Snarf, making him less whiny and more important. The comic is teen rated so not too dark.

    RPG CROWDFUNDING NEWS – OSRIC 3, Cloud Empress, ShadowWest, and more

    I went searching for the old TMNT books a few years back and found them to be horrendously expensive. The Mutants in the... series is perfect! Thanks!

    Marvel Multiverse RPG Getting an Avengers Expansion

    I've played it in a few one-shots. Its been fun to play. We ran the first few encounters in the Kang Adventure. I really want to see an adventure specific to the X-Men and mutants. Kang is neat, but my favorite from Marvel is the X-Men.

    D&D 5E (2014) Out of the Abyss- Post your pre-set encounters *Spoilers*

    Resurrecting this thread. Just had a session this weekend. Made the following random encounter, combined with the Oozing Temple. The party have just begun travel on the Darklake from Sloobludop to Gracklestugh. They left a narrow tunnel filled with rapids into a very large cavern filled with...

    D&D 5E (2014) DMing "Out of the Abyss"

    My party has Dawnbringer now. It's definitely a powerful weapon, but its a detriment too. Our group has a deep gnome and two drow. It hurts almost as much as it helps. If they have it by the time of Sloopbludop, it could really help them survive the ritual and then become a beacon for the...

    D&D 5E (2014) DMing "Out of the Abyss"

    I like using advantage over static mods to rolls. Your list of daily set up looks good. I'm going to have the party leader also set up marching formations for each type of area (narrow, standard, and wide). I don't really need the navigation checks due to an underdark ranger in the party.

    D&D 5E (2014) Out of the Abyss- Post your pre-set encounters *Spoilers*

    I'm glad you like them. I agree about the terrain. I'm thinking about changing the encounters to include both terrain and monster. The two of them together makes for a more memorable scene instead of just "a monster pops out at you"
