    D&D 5E (2014) RoT: Metallic Dragon Council

    yes this was very poor in comparison to other chapters I changed a bit for the Thay chapter and my players still remember this as one of their favourite interlude parts of the campaign

    D&D 5E (2014) RoT: Metallic Dragon Council

    hi the chapter as written was pretty sparse...I inserted a couple of bits... so I had the players asked to go to the Dragon meet as ambassadors, and for them to meet Elia at barn outside of Waterdeep. En-route I gave the Players a hand out that detailed each of the dragons this covered...

    D&D 5E (2014) Enhancing "Hoard of the Dragon Queen" (Practical stuff to try at your table!)

    D&D 5E (2014) New DM Having Tough Time Relaxing with Published Adventures!

    I like others on here, find coming up with a campaign plot from scratch quite hard and time consuming. And I much prefer taking a published module and then deconstructing the encounters so that they flow better for my group. in RoT one of the dungeons felt very Indiana Jones so I used that as...

    D&D 5E (2014) New DM Having Tough Time Relaxing with Published Adventures!

    I also found that with HotDQ that the maps/encounters were a bit stale, so I read ahead and then decided to keep the main points and then fluff the rest. Players enjoyed what we did so that was a plus

    D&D 5E (2014) Enhancing "Rise of Tiamat" (Practical stuff to try at your table!)

    For attack number 2 I had a fight in a market stall in Waterdeep, the lead up was some traveller types asking the PCs if they had recently been to Boreskyn bridge? ( the first encounter I ran on the outskirts of said place ). They said yes and then we had a fight including a quick chase scene...

    My group and I are about to start the Tower of Xonthal and then we head into the final battle… I mentioned in an earlier post I am planning on keeping the action away from the PCs but need to write / plan out the battle that they see. So does anyone who has played out the battle have any notes...

    D&D 5E (2014) Rise of Tiamat Questions

    I said that the areas protected would have around 3-4 dragons from each of the clans. In the final battle I will describe a few more, but my understanding was that there weren't that many about.
