Personally I will never post my strength or weaknesses as a DM on a public forum for my players to see, I'm sure they lurk here occasionally. Also as a DM it is important to offer your players a well organized and prepared session anything less and you might be wasting the players time or worse...

Awesome stuff, my 3 y/o kid digs the monster manual and she wants to play too. So your ideas on introducing young children to gaming is very well done. I swear children are so awesome. Once more thanks for the write up and look forward to reading more of your escapades. Scott

The Grey box campaign setting comes the closest to Greenwood's actual campaign.

Howdy- Well I read the review and I am not going let it stop me from running RoT. I'll just have to work out the details like I am doing with HotDQ thats all. Here is my version of HotDQ that I am running...

Ok we get it, after 8 posts of yours not liking FR, dont you think its time to move on?

You are correct. I guess I still have not scrubbed clean all the rules from 3.x from my mind lol.

Ah just venting my own frustration at dealing certain aspects of this game but all in all, I am still happy running 5E. Perhaps tomorrow I'll be more in the right mind to be feat freindly lol.

Actually, you get advantage on flanking. So thus with advantage the Rogue gets a sneak attack each turn. Scott

What is it with the need for pdf's? If you have the actual book, scan in the pages you will need for the adventure you are running. If your making NPC's buy a notebook and jot down your NPC's stats then transfer them to a word doc. I personally do not use a computer at my table, it takes up too...

Things I would recommend is do not use feats in your game, too many questionable situations seem to come up in most games and really up the players power level. Especially in HotDQ (I had to change up alot of the encounters due to just how powerful feats can be) To me, the Rogues are a real...

I guess he will have to give himself an infarction lol

Howdy all- Continuing with my ongoing AAR of Hoard of the Dragon Queen we last left off with the players having been tasked with the mission of ridding the Stargazers Sanctum (tower 3E) from Castle Nearytar. The players had defeated a real nasty Otyugh, ya know, those organic garbage disposals...

This is obviously a general DnD forum, so you will get all kinds of opinions on what people here like or dislike about the realms but if you go to Candlekeep forums, you will find that 100's of people like the Realms. It is after a fan site where as this forum is not and thus you will find a...

This...... I plan to do the same in my campaign, plus I am using the 3.x FRCS for my campaign, so this HotDQ will be set before the sundering. As the DM it is my version of FR, not novels or later editions. <cough 4E cough> Anyway, I like FR for the detailed locations and cool names like...

I like the Realms, then again I like all campaign settings, each one offers something unique in its own right. Plus I spend money on this stuff, so you can bet I'm gonna use it and get my monies worth. Anyway, every campaign world is as good or as bad as you the DM run it.

Ok I gotta ask, what is the 15-minute adventuring day?

Like 5E Great system and I am as well as the players are having an enjoyable time playing D&D. Dislike, some things but those things can easily be doubt with. Scott

Was going say the same thing, You do not need the novels about whom ever to play FR, just your imagination. Scott

Episode 6 Castle Nearytar Note some encounters I did change to make it more challenging for the players, especially since the PC's have Feats, the encounters had to be modified to deal with the players extra abilities. Creatures Encountered: Bullywog Mobs (low level trash) 100exp total...

Well it will come down to how much time you have to convert HotDQ to another campaign setting, replacing NPC's with your campaigns NPC's and trying to get the proper area of operations set for a non FR campaign. I tried initially but this module is so knee deep in FR lore that I figured it just...
