    D&D 5E [Spoilers for Tomb of Annihilation] Looking for help from the Hive Mind

    @Coroc - You are correct, of course. I have fixed it. @toucanbuzz - You may also have a point...

    D&D 5E [Spoilers for Tomb of Annihilation] Looking for help from the Hive Mind

    So, my party has just failed spectacularly at the Tomb of Annihilation--they managed to hand the Soul Monger over to Asmodeus, who is using it to hoover up the souls of anyone who dies on the Prime Material plane. They are back in Port Nyanzaru, and are planning to travel to Hell (by way of...

    D&D 5E ToA question for Tomb of the 9 gods 5th Floor Gears of Hate

    It's fun to print and cut out the gears, to show the players what's happening. If you want to do it at scale, you need to have access to a large-format printer (luckily I did). Even if you don't, you can cut them out at a smaller scale and play with them. To keep it straight for yourself...

    D&D 5E [SPOILERS] Enhancing Tomb of Annihilation

    Follow-up on my post above: My players dispatched the Atropal in three rounds, but it was fairly tense. The cleric cast Dawn, which amounts to ongoing radiant damage, which sped things up, and that was fine. The Atropal was doing its best to target the cleric and force concentration checks...

    D&D 5E [SPOILERS] Enhancing Tomb of Annihilation

    My group was wrapping up Level 5 last session, when we had a campaign-changing series of events. First--in reference to previous posts--my experienced group is savvy enough that they reasoned that the upper passages would eventually link up with the control room, so they were not particularly...

    D&D 5E [SPOILERS] Enhancing Tomb of Annihilation

    Man, there was a lot there. Thanks for all the ideas. I will definitely work in some evil weretigers.

    D&D 5E [SPOILERS] Enhancing Tomb of Annihilation

    Hello Hive Mind: Looking for help with Azaka. My party have selected her as their guide, and have just finished Firefinger, where she revealed herself as a weretiger. They have just leveled up to 3rd. I don't want her to just turn into a big meat shield, but I also don't want her to leave...

    Critical Role EN World's Critical Role Roundup 001

    Small but important point, I think: Nowhere does this post identify WHICH episode is being recapped. In fact, I think the title Roundup 001 will be confusing in the long term. I think the title should include Campaign No., Episode No., and the stream date should be indicated early on. Other...

    D&D 5E Enhancing "Storm King's Thunder"

    One of the boring-est ideas in Lyn Armaal is that the kitchen staff would be three ogres. There's just no way that cloud giants would be happy with ogres handling their food! I made the following change. The Countess's chef is now an efreet, held against his will because Sansuri has his...

    D&D 4E D&D Fluff Wars: 4e vs 5e

    Hey QuietBrowser, I thought I would bring up my two favourite setting books from 4E, since no one else has mentioned them: Hammerfast and Monster Vault: Threats to the Nentir Vale. While I enjoyed the info on the Dawn War and the tiefling-dragonborn war available in 4E, I found over time that...

    D&D 5E Assault of the Giants: Board Game

    Yeah, before the game was released, I was thinking I could justify paying for the painted game, since it would give me a full set of giants that could also be used in my D&D campaign (running SKT, of course). This type of compatibility was why I own 3 of the 4 Adventure System games, and all of...

    D&D 5E Assault of the Giants: Board Game

    King Hekaton from SKT is 5.5" tall, according to this image: To my knowledge, there are no side-by-side videos, but judge for yourselves by watching these: (Note the biggest discrepancy is with the Hill Giants) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qtR6Agrt8wU https://youtu.be/JKpmmjSi5HY?t=63
