Fun fact: My brother as a DM always started with amnesia for the party. I never pull that one. I usually start with the Classic tavern or with combat (Action).

In 5e? My Paladin starts desiring a +1 weapon and Gauntlets of Ogre Power. Ideally, that becomes an Holy Avenger and Girdle of Storm Giant Strenght. Third attunement goes for Winged Boots or Ring of Free Action. Desired items are also Tomes of +2 Cha and +2 Con, +3 Plate, +3 Shield, Javelins of...

I just finished reading the book. It seems to me that the creators really managed to recreate the feeling of Alice in Wonderland/Wizard of Oz/Peter Pan etc. It's the first time, IMO, because in all previous editions the attempt failed. So this Adventure is a Must Play Bonus points for the...

Crusader, Beguiler, Warblade

After running RotF a second time, I think that it's a really good adventure (just not as excellent as CoS, ToA and DiA). The main theme, IMO, is the raw exploration of the secrets of Icewind Dale rather then defeating the Frostmaiden herself. Plus, having to deal with unexpected foes and...

"Classic", for me, is something that stands the test of time and is as good today as the day it came out. I'll ADD to your list: BECMI B5 Horror on the Hill B7 Rahasia DDA3 The Eye of Traldar X4 Master of the Desert Nomads X5 Temple of Death X10 Red Arrow, Black Shield CM1 Test of the Warlords...

Personally I think DoA is one of the best 5e adventures. Second part requires a bit of adjustment but it's epic. Tried to play OotA once but had a TPK at the beginning. Plus, I don't think demon lords can get lost.

Regarding Tomb of Annihilation's appeal... It's a jungle hexcrawl, then a delve in a deadly dungeon, with a time limit - that's a challenge. The hexcrawl has an Indiana-Jones vibe, with a lot of funny moments, and with interesting NPCs and locations. The Tomb actually manages to recreate the...

Maybe Demogorgon, final boss of the Savage Tide AP. We were LVL21, but it was a very long, very difficult fight. Most difficult campaign ever.

B2 Keep on the Borderlands X1 Isle of Dread Age of Worms AP Savage Tide AP (in this one, we were TPKed at least 20 times; probably this is the one we made more attempts)

Today in my Tomb of Annihilation campaign, after an incredible 19-days (in-game) speedrun, the party descended into the deepest level of the Tomb. They had already found all the skeleton keys, all the trickster spirits, all the legendary treasures of the Tomb. There were no PC deaths in the...

The Red Box! A well-revised version of the original box, plus the Stephen Fabian's Tarokka Deck! Lovely!

I just watched a YouTube video on Nerd Immersion channel that discovered that the new hardcover for May is "Van Ritchen's Guide to Ravenloft". I'm really satisfied with the return of a classic setting!

I'm DMing two different campaigns, ToA and DiA. ToA. The party (level 9 at the beginning of the session), led by an incredibly smart, deceitful and lucky Tiefling Bard, was able to explore the second level of the Tomb. Most remarkable is the use of the kobold tribe of Omu to deactivate traps...
