Something for the errata: If Ravengard left for Elturel 'A tenday ago' (Fall of Elturel section in Chapter 1) then he'd barely have arrived since it appears to be over 200 miles from Baldur's Gate. Certainly refugees couldn't be expected at Baldur's Gate for another tenday. Should be 'A month...

That's also true. I'll tackle that when my players create their characters, I think. Personality traits / bonds will need to drive the character's pursuit of the quest. One of them being a Warlock would also help ;)

To make the whole first chapter less of an obvious railroad of strange coincidence I would probably have the Dark Secret be known by Zodge, and have him blackmail the characters into accepting his mission (no 200gp for them...) Furthermore, the fact he drops them a single lead that 100% pays...

Myzzrym, this is what I've been saying and some others have too - can you put some resource into getting the viewing angle a little closer to horizontal? Pretty please :)

Must....not...back at the €162 level...must...not....arghh!!

I'm surprised by this statement, which seems quite a violent reaction to the OP, Morrus. I'd see it as more a question of rewarding those who prioritise and commit to attending a gaming session, which the DM may have worked hard to prepare, over for example, staying in because you're a bit...

I'm not sure it's as straightforward as sequencing them all. The different books take place in different parts of the world and often compete to cover the same player levels. You could mix and match two or maybe three of the books (e.g. Wilderland Adventures and the Mirkwood Campaign) but...

What irks me is that Gnomes can have as high strength as half orcs! Should be capped at 12 or something, in my opinion

My next session finally took place after a three month delay...Quite an RP-heavy session as expected. The captured PCs were presented to Fenthaza in the Fane, and undertook their slave labours with good grace. As planned, Fenthaza has now recruited them to run a slave revolt. They have each...

Nebulous, off topic from WFRP I know, but have you considered Adventures in Middle Earth - also from Cubicle 7? It's D&D 5e, but not as we know it. Might not suit every group however. I'm seriously considering it for the next campaign. My ToA has actually died a death since a PC was petrified...

I'd say the opposite is true. Sun rises in the east and sets in the west (or equivalent, in any homebrew world). Because of that, you have a general idea which way is north, even in unfamiliar locations. If you've been somewhere for a day or even a few hours, you know for sure which way is...

Not even underground - they could just lead the players out of Omu and over to 'nearby' Dungrunglung, if the incentive was enough. EDIT - maybe they took Nangnang's puzzle cube there! My next session has been delayed a couple of times, frustratingly. Still no idea when we can fit the next one...

I'm so depressed about this. My prediction: A "D&D" movie will reinforce all the old stereotypes, kill stone dead any new wave of coolness from livestreams and the like, and stop the expansion of the hobby dead in its tracks. Back to being a laughing stock because 'Elves'. Great. D&D is about a...

Well I think I've decided - no let offs. I've started drawing up a spreadsheet of the Fane occupants HPs, stats etc. The players will (hopefully) lead a slave revolt. I pray they do not take Fenthaza at her word and use the revolt to escape as soon as possible, leaving her and Ras Nsi to fight...

Here's my latest two sessions. Party are level five but hit some major buffers in Omu...luckily the adventure caters for that although I'll have to plan the next session carefully! SESSION 17: The session began with the party looking down on the Forbidden City of Omu for the first time. After...

I strongly disagree Perception should be based on Intelligence not Wisdom. But I agree Intelligence is a weak stat. I think the DM can do a lot about this at 'session zero', warning players that dumping INT will have consequences (you can't read, wouldn't possibly know that fact so can't roll...

So after 7 pages of discussion are we all agreed - the answer to the OP is ..... NO* * they could, but won't

I'd agree with you. As a DM the number one thing you want to avoid is a player saying "But you never said that was there, otherwise I'd never have done x!" or "Of course I'd have done y if I'd known about that exit!" So yeah, the DM needs to decide what in the room or scene might inform the...

I feel like if there was even a sniff of this brewing, WotC would head it off at the pass with some sort of counter-offer involving a large purse of moneys in order to stay with D&D 5e...all behind the scenes of course
