    Changes or No Changes

    Less specifically Ravenloft, more this. I guess I am trying to figure out if there is anything that there is consensus on as being a sacred cow and can never be monkeyed with or if pretty much anything could be toyed with. Obviously things like we're using D&D 5e as the rules set are not...

    It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like RAVENLOFT

    Yup, that's what I am saying. Why couldn't the AL if they wanted to say "Any PC you play in these adventures cannot leave until they find a way out."?

    Changes or No Changes

    Reposting a discussion had under the Ravenloft news story since it is AL specific: Not arguing it isn't or isn't Ravenloft for season 4, but why couldn't AL put in a blurb something like "This is a Ravenloft adventure and if you play it you cannot play any other adventures with that character...

    It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like RAVENLOFT

    Not arguing it isn't or isn't Ravenloft for season 4, but why couldn't AL put in a blurb something like "This is a Ravenloft adventure and if you play it you cannot play any other adventures with that character except Ravenloft adventures until your character finds a way out?" Assuming AL was up...

    It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like RAVENLOFT

    The AL admins have talked about the Winter Fantasy's Epic as being "The Retaking of Phlan." The stakes in that are high, and the blood hopefully belongs to a specific green dragon...

    Reporting results is really just for convention play?

    In general, stores are not banned from reporting their critical events, though the premier and regional preview schedule may occasionally through a wrench into there being enough time for them to do so. I'm not actually sure of the specifics with what happened with Malady of Elventree, but its...

    Exclusive Adventures for DnDAL

    I prefer a chai tea latte with honey and cinnamon.

    Exclusive Adventures for DnDAL

    I would like people to consider the original four questions in their answers, as we are rapidly repeating the same misconceptions. I should point out (again) that this idea has zero to do with BMG other than we are doing a trial run of the concept at one of their conventions. I also plan to...

    You should feel free to adjust to your table.

    DM Encounter Flexibility for Published Adventures

    Yes, I was referring specifically to Expeditions/Encounters.

    Adventurers League, Home Play, and Public Play for Out of the Abyss characters

    My only request was that we focus on one thing in a thread. If you would like to speak about inclusiveness in gaming, I think that great and we should totally do that as the DnDAL is a big supporter of inclusivity. I just didn't want the original post and what we might learn from that to get...

    DM Encounter Flexibility for Published Adventures

    Adventures have xp maximums. You cannot award more than that maximum.

    Adventurers League, Home Play, and Public Play for Out of the Abyss characters

    I would very much like to focus on things that the AL could actually do something about and not what it can't (and thus my original post). I am also quite fed up today with a large number posters pulling the "I'm right, you are wrong and a ****-ist because I will make assumptions about you, and...

    Exclusive Adventures for DnDAL

    There is not a hard and fast on that (especially since some regions are not the same size). If the conventions in your example (about 3 hrs apart by car) wanted to run the same weekend then probably. If they were a few months apart, no. If a con in Seattle wanted to run the same weekend as a con...

    Adventurers League, Home Play, and Public Play for Out of the Abyss characters

    Why are the only options that I have done something wrong and am obviously at fault? Why is my original reading obviously "odd" and less valid than yours? I don't understand and would love for you to educate me. Why is it after telling me about my problems, you can then focus on exactly the...

    Exclusive Adventures for DnDAL

    I'm not sure you think how much you get for writing, but its not likely to cover the costs of going to the con. Add to it that some of us (like myself) are unemployed and I find it bordering on offensive that you think the admins should just pay for everything. (We already have paid for a number...

    Exclusive Adventures for DnDAL

    A template that gives a fixed gp/xp/item with some suggestions on possible plot that the local DM then invents their own adventure. Was used in Mark of Heroes, Xen'Drick Expeditions, and Living FR.

    Exclusive Adventures for DnDAL

    We would like a minimum number of tables to be run (usually 10, though we lower that number for non-US cons), it cannot be geographically/temporal close to some place else that ran the epic, and your con has to have a good reputation (for example if your con has been caught doing naughty things...

    Exclusive Adventures for DnDAL

    EPIC2 has actually been run in several countries. Japan, Russian and Brazil all come to mind. Any convention can apply to get an epic and there are only a few minimal requirements.

    Exclusive Adventures for DnDAL

    That's not exactly true. The Epic occurs between DDEX2-13 and DDEX2-14. The season 3 epic occurred between DDEX3-4 and DDEX3-5. So it has already occurred. The season 4 epic occurs before DDEX4-1.
