Thanks, super useful!

I see the jungle environment as somewhat "aware". You have a random encounter, you make a bunch of noise, you spill some blood, some creatures can smell and hear from a very long distance. Are you seriously going to camp anywhere near there, now that every hyena/t-rex/etc. can smell a bunch of...

Variant Human Paladin with GWM and a maul, couldn't afford a greatsword Variant Human Cleric with Healer, considered themselves a medic, carried 3 healing kits Variant Human Moon Druid with Sentinel Variant Human Ranger with Crossbow Expert, didn't own a hand crossbow, just wanted to get rid of...

As others have pointed out, Tomb of Annihilation is now $29.97 USD on Amazon. I am going to take personal credit for this :) because when I cancelled my preorder to get it from my FLGS I put down "found it at a better price" as the reason. And my FLGS did give me 10% off, so it was close to the...

Page 38, paraphrasing: Dehydration, drink 2 gallons of water a day or make a DC 15 con save for a level of exhaustion, save at disadvantage for heavy armor, medium armor or heavy clothes.

Here is what I am doing: I am going to combine them. They meet their Patron, she takes them via teleport to Chult. The teleport arrives at the docks. Begin DDAL 7-01 #1 :)

Charisma at disadvantage because you smell bad? That would be enough of a penalty.

That is interesting! Are there Grung miniatures? I don't recall ever seeing one.

There are two question here: 1. Can you attune two belts as part of your limit of three attuned items? Sure, I would allow that. 2. Can you wear the two belts at the same time and get the benefit of both? Not a chance. Wear either one or the other. For what it is worth, the picture in the DMG...

I played in all 5 min-adventures. Had a blast. Probably half my tables mates were pregens, saw one level 3 at the final adventure. The DMs were very good to great, which to me says that if these people were my DM in a long running campaign I would be fine with that. As Pauper said, the JW...

Forgive me if I missed this, but what is up with the lack of AL entries on the Dungeon Masters Guild for this season? Every previous AL season had 14-18 adventures, this has 3 and appears to be near it's end. Was there a writer's strike? Something else I somehow missed?

I found the sidequests to be a nice break from the linear nature of the first two episodes. Also, some of them are quite scary on the surface (you want us to go talk to a WHAT??) The players took it as a quest hub, and they didn't bother to do all the quests. I also ratcheted up some of the...

I know back in Tyranny of Dragons there were certs for the magic items in Lost Mines of Phandelver. Would it be possible to get the PDF for them posted, perhaps in the DMs Guild?

I've run two different parties at Venomfang, all experienced players. Both encounters happened at 3rd level. One party dealt with the cultists separately, a short bloody fight. Then the tackled Venomfang the next day. They got in a large alpha strike with the scroll of fireball from Glasstaff's...

I have run it several times. If the players follow the rumors from the child Pip, they enter through the tunnel. That means the first thing they encounter is the Nothic, who I thought was the most interesting thing in here. I play the Nothic as insane, intelligent and always hungry. It feels...

And don't forget Prestidigitation to clean up the blood.

Actually, I really liked the magic items in Lost Mine of Phandelver. Some of them had additional properties that added uniqueness and flavor, useful in certain circumstances without being overpowering. jfolsen

It can be done. Way back in 1st edition I played in (then ran) a campaign with mostly evil characters. Chaotic evil fire worshiping clerics, backed up by assassins, assorted fighters and other stuff. The key was they had a bond to each other. They had a larger purpose, something that mere loot...

Store options I just don't think funneling a significant portion of this playing content through stores is going to work. I live in Northern Virginia, a very rich environment for RPG and gaming stores in general. There are multiple stores that are no more than 45 minutes from my house, real...
