We keep track of weight, but handwave size, as long as it is semi-reasonable.

We usually use Risk pieces. I have bought some minis (both 3D and 2D) but have found that it takes a lot of time to get them sorted out, especially if I'm not sure we'll be using them.

Thanks! This is exactly what I was looking for. :)

Sounds like I'll need to get that 1e DMG at some point. I'll probably wait, though, to see if my players actually bite on the possibilities a home base offers.

We already have a floorplan. What we don't have is costs of remodeling it so that basements become workshops, etc.

Is the domain a kingdom, or just a general name for a home base?

Thanks. I am giving them the option of gaining a rundown inn (from Dragon Heist) but am assuming that they will turn it into a shared home instead of trying to run the business. That won't have nearly as much upkeep, but would give them storage space along with room for workshops of their own.

Yes, yes, yes, and yes! I'm looking at more of a manor house, though, than a stronghold. Would the 1e DMG still be useful? And I was planning on leaving the design up to the players, but wanted some templates to give them ideas.

I hadn't thought of the the Dungeons section as being helpful for this. Thanks. I have read the downtime activity sections in both the DMG and Xanathar's, and want something more specific than that.

RoT is the second half, though. ToD is the entire thing, meaning that it includes HotDQ.

I find it interesting that you put ToD in the Mid Tier, but HotDQ (the first half) in the Failure Tier.

It can be in the Forgotten Realms. There are suggestions as to where to place it.

That is good to know. It's the first time I had seen orange text as well.

Now I want to know where you can get scratch off paint!

Are there any tools/supplements that you have used when your players decide to create a personalized home base? I know that I can just have them say what each room is for, but I would like something codified and prefer not to reinvent the wheel if I don't have to.

So basically just a perception check with a fancy name!

How is that different than buying hexed paper?

How are the subsector maps any different than buying hexed graph paper, which is a lot cheaper?

What do you mean by "Spot rolls"?

Great idea! You might still have to reroll for ties, but it wouldn't be everybody, and it would definitely be quicker.
