Enworld should really open up a Reviews section of the forum. Great place to cross-pollinate all the good stuff coming out.

Stepping back, I am thinking D&D would be better served by a mini-series than by a movie. It really is the preferred medium these days -- I mean, Fallout is basically a movie trilogy done in installments, and it serves the story so much better. The question is, what would be the best way to...

If I were doing a D&D series, I’d base it on one of the more famous adventure module series. Slavers series has an especially strong arc.

Love it.

Will wait for the alt cover.

I actually think modern D&D is tied more to Disney than medievalism.

Ick.

Yep, the context here matters. If the duck in question is key to the adventure and needs to be active (or the entire party are ducks), then it’s one thing, but using it as a “time out” on one player is Tyrant GMing. We’d need to know the situation here Working together Is of course the desired...

Yep, and I agree with the sentiment to a point. I still believe the GM should be able to generate adverse events that may affect characters and that characters will need to react to those events. And I don’t believe the GM has to ask for the players permission to do so. That said, the...

My biggest gripe with these sorts of adventures is feeling as if the PCs are mere witnesses to something that doesn’t really involve them. And that the encounters and indeed the entire adventure can be fully resolved without them.

I like that it’s system agnostic These are principles that can be applied anywhere.

That victorian supplement does indeed look pretty cool.

Those are classics. Start with Pavis (speaking of the Crimson Bat...)

For this, I would give advantage to the higher level fighter.

Here's one of the better crimson bat images I've seen. :ROFLMAO: Put "The Lunar Way" on THAT.

And this is the art I paid attention to. Anyway, ducks are cool. You should get over that. ;)

In our games, we do develop backstory, goals and even a potential character story arc at character creation. We do a session zero. But we also allow for GM events (positive and adverse) for characters to react to throughout the scenario and campaign. Players also can assert or suggest things...

I believe there's a scenario out there where you are actually fighting on the back of TCB and it takes quite a while to get from place to place. The mothra description is probably apt though, it's a B-52 bomber not an F-16.

And the number of scenarios in Glorantha I've played with ducks is effectively zero. Kneejerk reaction to Glorantha is always the ducks, but they are a minor inhabitant of the world, and only an occasional (humorous) diversion. D&D has sprites and brownies, RQ has a cursed race. What's the big...

You'd need to know the motive of the GM -- you're assuming 100% he's on a "sick power trip." Typically, a GM is providing a scenario to be run through with various challenges, and this could be one, and perhaps roleplaying it is another. Don't ascribe every event that's not under the player's...
