    Normally I use the unlabeled version, a scissor and some glue. Then i Can give them room After Room. I think its a Waste to keep all These gorgeous Maps for oneself. Especially with this absolutely fantastic isometrisch map.

    D&D 5E Is a CR 30 monster a suitable challenge for a 20th level party?

    Hi, in my current campaign I've decided to comply with the wish of my players, which wanted to play all to way up to level 20. So... I wanted to make the last level end fight a big thing. So I've wondered if a CR 30 creature (which means Tiamat or a Tarrasque) is a good challenge for a 20th...

    D&D 5E PCs as Ghosts

    Hi, I've wondered if one of the PCs has unfinished business and is transformed into a ghost after it died. I really like this idea, since it opens a bunch of story opportunities. But from the mechanical side: Is the character still in posession of all abilities? Can a spellcaster still cast...

    D&D 5E Minis and no grid?

    Yeah, I'm also doing this. 13th age inspired me to do this and I carried this over to D&D 5e. I think it's the best out of the two worlds: Theater of the Mind vs. Tactical Map.

    D&D 5E Tests of the seelie court - help me find ideas for 3 dungeons

    This is brilliant! :) I will use this idea for the combat part.

    D&D 5E Tests of the seelie court - help me find ideas for 3 dungeons

    I like this idea! Maybe not seeing the three (Honor, Love, Beauty) as 3 distinct parts, but saying that they are an overall code which needs to be respected. Then I could also use more or less than 3 adventures (depending on how fast the other plotlines develop).

    D&D 5E Which Undermountain Book for my 5e Waterdeep Campaign?

    Yeah, I've also read a few times that the 2e boxed set is gorgeous, but it's quite expensive to get it. Therefore I'm stuck with the other books. I'm just want to use the book as inspirational material. I will nevertheless build my own stuff into undermountain.
