OK, I bit the bullet and purchased the 5e Deluxe Combo for both the DM and Players books in hardcover and the adventure PDFs. . . Hoping to see lots of new content and great adventures.

Kobold Press was already mentioned. I like Frog God Games, but due to their 1st edition feel, they aren't always as buttoned up on the rules mechanics as Kobold Press. That may not be an issue, but I wanted to point that out. Their adventures are very good, and the spells and monsters are unique...

I don't know if the new Campaign Setting will allow some of the older adventures to get updated to 5e or not. But if you don't mind converting adventures from pathfinder, I highly recommend picking up "Tales of the Old Margreve" and "Courts of the Shadow Fey" from DriveThruRpg for that type of...

The way I've approached Midgard is through the adventures, particularly those in the Eastern-European-flavored "Crossroads" region, so that's the perspective I have. I haven't really run a game in the "Southlands" region, which is more middle-eastern or Egyptian in tone. For me, the setting...

Clasic Modules Today have done conversions of the classic D&D and AD&D modules. You can find both the original adventures and the conversions at DMsGuild.com. Isle of Dread might be what you're looking for? Edit: I'd also mention the Legendary Games line. They have some good fey-wilderness...

I feel strongly that it should be landscape, not portrait. I own the GF9 DM Screen, but I don't use it. Instead I use a customizable 3-panel screen since it lets me change the artwork. The GF9 screen is very generic D&D, and that doesn't really suit my game very well (currently a weird blend of...

I'm really on the fence. I love my Midgard Campaign Setting book; I backed many of the adventures back in the Open Design days (except for the super early ones like Castle Shadowcrag), and I play 5e. It's not hard to convert what I have to 5e on the fly, so for me, it's a decision on how much...

Though it's deviated from the original topic some, I've enjoyed some of the conversation about the game's evolution and DMing. I think the game has naturally changed as a result of some of the issues that come up in game play for a sophisticated game like D&D. For instance, there were examples...

But how many of us running homebrew will still buy setting books we like? I sure can't speak for everyone, but I'd still buy each of the major setting books. Just because I'm not currently running Spelljammer doesn't mean I won't buy the book and excitedly plan to run the game, even though it...

I wonder how many of them are ordered as jokes/gag gifts? I hope it's a lot, but I bet it isn't.

Seriously though, do you disallow core classes or races? I originally had homebrew races back when I was playing B/X, but when I converted to 5e it got too complicated to disallow PHB races and classes. So for my new campaign, it was far easier to just make the PHB available for everyone to pick...

While I agree with a lot of what you say, and I also wish (selfishly) to see more adventures and DM tools, the main way a player interacts with the game is through their character. Yes, I'd LOOOOOOVE if my players were more interested in my world and my NPCs and my story, but that's often not...

I agree with the premise, but Dracula means literally "Order of the Dragon." :)

There is for sure still a punk rock camp (enough to earn Zak S a few Ennies).

Absolutely! I'm just trying to find the right mix of encounters during wilderness exploration, especially when exploration is a large chunk of the game.
