It should be interesting to see how it plays out. My first thought was that James could stand in for Quital's random hostage, though with von Recklinghausen and the papers already having escaped, there would be nothing to trade. I wonder how creative the others could get to save their friend's...

While the other constables were busy acquiring and studying witchoil, Malkie Vienne skulked off into the night to set up a meeting with Lorcan Kell to try and find Doctor von Recklinghausen. She returned several hours later with an offer from Kell: bribe him to the tune of 1000 gold pieces, and...

Some DM notes: (Villainous Convocation spoilers ahead!) I ran Zeitgeist as an online game, which got to the climactic fight at the end of this adventure before petering out. After my live game finished Scales of War and took a 9-month hiatus, I decided to run Zeitgeist for them. Two of my...

The next day, only three Constables showed up in time for Assistant Chief Inspector Stover Delft’s morning meeting: Malkie, James, and Cazara. Delft asked to know how the investigation was going, and Malkie was in the process of fumbling through her notebook, trying to sort it all out, and in...

Pledged for all three hardcovers. Will that get me PDFs of the unreleased adventures as they release, or only once they are compiled?

You guys rock. We're using the art for some nice chunky character tokens for our Zeitgeist game, with resin over stoneware, and the art really helps make everything pop. Can't wait to make more tokens! :)

Three months later, on the 1st of Summer, the constables were once again assembled into a task force for a matter of international importance: a Risuri citizen had been killed at the Danoran Consulate and Delft wanted them to investigate. Since we last left them, Ironpeak had done some...

Yeah, I figured I'd play her completely up-front, honest, and helpful to the party for this adventure, since she's not been drawn into the Ob yet. (and the fact that my players are very suspicious of any NPC. They always assume the "friendly" NPCs are out to get them. Zeitgeist should do little...

Let's say I hear an adventure is really good and I want to run it for my regular home group. I'd rather pay $35 to a store than $125 to some dude on ebay, which is how it currently works.

well, yeah. I was going for the people who want to play Zeitgeist with D&D Next rules. :P Change a plane here & there? meh. I want fighters to lose all their powers! muahahaha

I kinda want to see the New Reality faction, who think the underlying rules that control reality are faulty, and would like a new "edition" of those rules. ;)

I was actually thinking of just starting everyone with Digging For Lies, and folding the first play into the history of the game, but I didn't want the new players to miss out on saving the Coaltongue, meeting the Duchess and Lya, meeting Gale, Kell, Quital, and von Recklingausen, and the fight...

The constables made their way to the lighthouse to achieve the first part of their objective. They found the guards on duty to be pretty easily swayed by Malkie’s bribes of Fey Pepper, and were inside the sea gate control room without a fight. When the sea gate opened, the constables found...

I'm going to be starting The Dying Skyseer in about two weeks. The problem is, about half of my group played in my online game which got as far as the fight with MacBannin at his mansion, so those three players know all about von Recklinghausen, "Detective Porter" and Reed MacBannin. They...

Half of my group are using firearms in some way (two as primary weapons, one as a sidearm). I found the Threat of Force optional rule combined with the Killing Tool optional rule helped push guns. The fighter charging those "bowmen" is going to be in a lot of trouble if they all get to unload on...

House Rules we are using (mostly gun-related): - Flanked creatures give up combat advantage to all melee attackers, not just the flankers. - Killing Tool from the Zeitgeist Players' Guide (firearms lose Brutal, gain 2[W] damage per attack). - Threat of Force from the Zeitgeist Players' Guide (a...

Infiltrating Axis Island Five of our constables boarded the RNS Impossible that evening, making their way to Axis Island. Duchess Ethelyn was trying to start a war by invading Danoran territory won in the Fourth Yerasol War. Hugh Pearsall was not present. The constables' mission was...

We got about halfway through Dying Skyseer on my first run-through of this campaign (with three of the six current players, who are doing their best to let the new players figure tihngs out). The first time, Sokana did not make it. I was definitely focused on using her two teleport powers to get...

(Note: for those of you following along at home, we used the revised deck plans from Admiral o’ the High Seas) We rejoined the RHC investigators just as the Risuri national anthem was beginning on the top deck of the RNS Coaltongue. Most of the constables were keeping an eye on various parts...

After becoming re-acquainted with one another and filling out their paperwork, Assistant Chief Stover Delft arrived and gave a short briefing on the day’s assignment. Dossiers on prominent VIPs attending the launch of the Coaltongue in addition to potential troublemakers were made available to...
