duh! of course. yes, we use Hero points quite a bit - however, as I was typing this summary I realized we didn't use them for staving off death. it was something I was intending to remind the group over our Discord. we continue to learn. Cheers, J.

Haven't yet. still slowly making my way through the GMG - so can't comment yet. maybe before the next session in 2 weeks. Cheers, J.

PF2e GM here, reporting back after 2 more sessions under my belt - now at 5, every-other-week 4 hour sessions into Fall of Plaguestone using the official module on Roll20. I apparently run slow games - we're only at the 1/2 way point in chapter 2. we average 1.5 combats/session. Combats are...

so, you might not get a good reply here. 4e was a LONG time ago. I was a player vs a GM, I didn't really read the rules, and i was kind of being a bit of a S@%t Disturber in game because "bah, 4e, get off of my lawn, this ain't D&D". with that said, I personally don't find a lot of...

LOL. I stared like 2 minutes at that and wondered - am I saying this correct? we play every other saturday :)

yes. the 2 enthusiastic players and 1 meh player plus myself were all involved in a 20+ session "mega dungeon" 4e "campaign". it was a bunch of fun and we all very much enjoyed it for what it was - not "D&D" per say, but a tactical squad based combat game :). Back then 4e was a curiosity and...

hey all. long time lurker. just a quick report of my experiences with PF2e. I've now GM'd 3, 4-hour sessions of The Fall of Plaguestone through Roll20 with 5 players. This is the first time I've ever played or GM'd any Pathfinder. I have hundreds of sessions of 5e and other editions of D&D...

[small rant] i would have really liked to have jumped in with the "everything" box, but I simply cannot justify the cost. Shipping to Canada is $50.00US. this one product would cost me nearly $450.00CAD. that's crazy money for a role playing game!. $290.00 is more expensive than the Torg...

Hey Everyone. just to be clear, this is a 2 year old thread that has recently been Necro'd. not sure why. So there is no confusion. I have been happily running an "old school" mega-dungeon using 5th edition rules for over a year now. I am running Rappan Athuk. 5th Edition is perfectly...

Old thread dredged up from the past! :) so, I've been running a mega-dungeon in 5e for over a year now, and yes it can be done, but I've had to modify 5e somewhat to make this work. here are my experiences in no particular order. I've been running Rappan Athuk for a group of 5 players...

still doesn't work on my note 4. I have never been able to get through an entire issue without so many crash bugs that I simply give up and stop reading it. Tech support did contact me once, but doesn't look like the issue has ever been resolved. so for now, this is an app which I want to...

me too. and they were fast to respond! here's hoping the issue can be found quickly :) Cheers, J.

I find it completely unstable on my note 4. I open the app. it checks for updates. I open any issue. flip to an article. start scrolling down, and then every single time for every single article it locks up and crashes and asks me to send a report to google. frustrating :( cheers J.

:) exactly my question. I am not by nature a "mega dungeon" designer - though I've run RA for example. however, me and a friend were talking about what system to play if we were to play a M-D, that wasn't "old schools" D&D. I think (only opinion), if I were to run RA with a 5th edition...

Thanks for the reply. so, change the dungeon design to accommodate faster level advancement for the first few levels - how would you change that? smaller "levels" How much smaller? 1/3? 1/4? 1/10th? Also, there was a ratio of dungeon stocking, with built in assumptions for XP gained for...

is it even possible? no, seriously! of course playing an adventure of walking through a dungeon is of course possible, but running a meg-dungeon (old school style) as it's own self-contained entity. What would need to change in how a dungeon is presented to make it possible? some of the...

Good points! I 100% agree. Though, I would guess the Ed Greenwood article would qualify as part of the first. What would be cool IMO would be some kind of cross over article. how to build the main character in the MMO to match the main character in the book. or what the character sheet would...

you have my permission

but what free content can they give you for a video game, a book or a board game? Cheers J, (who CLEARLY works for WOTC - LOL)

I think Dragon+ is great and is exactly what the Brand Dungeons and Dragons needs (because D&D is no longer just about Tabletop gaming). It allows me, as someone who is peripherally tuned into other D&D related properties - like a CRPG, a MMO and D&D books, I can decide if those are interesting...
