I generally opt to just take one of my CharOp builds into each season. It was only during the RoD season that I first decided to take the setting into consideration when choosing which build to bring in, and only did so for OotA. To be honest, bringing in a character that is ideal for the season...

Actually, PAM lists only glaives, halberds, pikes, and quarterstaffs. Lances are NOT compatible with PAM.

For people whose stores still haven't printed out the certs, here's a link to a 30% off coupon code for FedEx Office. I posted it on the Facebook group last night, but wanted to make sure that it got to as many people as possible. Each sheet of double-sided color certs on 110# cardstock came out...

It all makes sense now. Perhaps the descriptions for the second half could have at least the "Part X of MF&AH" line added for now. That way people seeing it for the first time can tell that all 14 are meant to be played in order.

Possibly. What I meant by "story arc" was referring to Misty Fortunes and Absent Hearts being a story arc, and then 4-7 through 4-14 would be another one with its own name. The two arcs would be the halves of a greater storyline. I just figured that since there was no descriptions listed for the...

So DDAL4-7 to DDAL4-14 aren't a connected story arc? That's kind of lame. I thought that this season's DDAL adventures were comprised of two story arcs, 1-6 and 7-14, meant to be run consecutively.

Any chance of the sample builds getting added to the guide? Those were my favorite part of this guide back on the WotC forums. The Herculean Wrestler was my favorite of them all, as I remember the guide listing how to perform certain wrestling moves using the in-game mechanics.

It's a Tier 1 adventure, for levels 1-4. It's also the end of the Misty Fortunes and Absent Hearts story arc for the DDAL adventures. The remaining 8 adventures(DDAL4-7 to DDAL4-14) are part of the next story arc and are all Tier 2 adventures.

Since this is for an AL character, the rules for customizing backgrounds are perfectly legal. You can swap out the skill proficiency you don't want for one that you do. You can also change out the tool/language proficiences, as long as you have a total of 2 tool/language proficiencies.

Actually, you can only do nonlethal damage with a melee attack. See PHB 198, Knocking a Creature Out.

I think that I'm probably going to go with my Belmont Battle Buckler build. He was born to kill vampires and the undead. Watch me whip! Strahd say "Nay! Nay!" :P

They've been replaced by the DM Quests system. Any ETA on when those materials should be uploaded to DMsG?

The recipe for my Bard Jaymes Isaac Bartles' Wine Coolers: 1 gallon of ale 1 gallon of wine 1 empty jug of gallon size Fill jug with half of the wine and half of the ale. Seal jug. Shake jug vigorously with Mage Hand. Prestidigitation twice: once for flavor and once for temperature. Serve...

Yes. You simply buy the DDAL modules from DMsGuild. The only thing you'll be missing is the Haunted One background, which was already released on its own for free.

Honestly, I wouldn't stress too much over making sure you have the exact miniatures. I have a Bag O' Zombies that I use for grunts, plus a set of generic fantasy minis, colloquially known as the Blue Man Group and the Red Man, that are used for middle management and bosses. The key to...

Would it be against forum rules if I uploaded the edits that I did to the Death House player maps to make them printer friendly? They're of the house itself and not the dungeon. Mike Schley did give them away for free, so I don't see any immediate issue, but I thought I'd ask before posting them.

What was happening at my table prior to this is that I was using the Summarizing Travel option, rolling 1d6+1 for days passed and then rolling on the encounter table. RNGesus must have been taking pity on the players, because there would be long stretches of no encounters after almost a tenday...

I plan on using the Werewolves in the Mist adventure hook to let the party get some starting gear and because it's the one that involves the factions. The party will then run into the Barovian Scouts and the Corpse random encounters. If running Death House, the Mists essentially "guide" the...

Goliath isn't exactly off the table for Season 4. You simply have to take Elemental Evil as your Story Origin. All 4 Story Origins (ToD, EE, RoD, CoS) are still legal in Season 4.

I actually did this recently at my OotA table. Since most of the Ch. 2 encounters are weak for a party doing the travel tasks for the Battle of Blingdenstone, I set up a "Day from Hell" for their last day of travel. The penultimate day ended with them finding the warning sign outside of...
