    D&D 5E (2014) Eberron Campaign thread

    I thought about doing that. How is the game going? How hard was the conversion?

    D&D 5E (2014) Eberron Campaign thread

    First game confirmed for Thursday next week. Eep. I'm always nervous at the start of a new campaign.

    D&D 5E (2014) Eberron Campaign thread

    Ooo. Nice. Particularly as one of the characters has a background that involves smuggling 'corrupted' dragonshards from Zilargo. This could go very well.

    D&D 5E (2014) Eberron Campaign thread

    Hi everyone, with the release (not so long ago) of Eberron: Rising From the Last War, I will be starting a new campaign in a couple of weeks. I thought I'd start a thread where everyone is welcome to post about their Eberron campaigns. Not only will this give you an interested audience (even if...

    D&D 5E (2014) When an entire campaign comes down to one roll

    I love it. That's good DMing right there. The game isn't as fun if there isn't the chance of a TPK. I've run a game where all of the party were down except the cleric and there was only one enemy left. If the cleric hit he would kill the enemy and be able to restore his party. If he missed then...

    D&D 5E (2014) Some thoughts on Warfare in DnD

    I still think the 3e module 'The Red Hand of Doom' is the best example of warfare as a D&D campaign. Lots going on, but the party are generally on specific strategic missions on the edge of battle - stuff that will turn the tide. It's playable on a character level but you still feel like your...

    D&D 5E (2014) Becoming lost -- how exactly does it work?

    It was one session: Roll20 My memory was faulty though - it was the next session that the scorpion fatality happened. By that time 3 party members had died or been taken leaving only one chararacter.: Roll20

    D&D 5E (2014) Becoming lost -- how exactly does it work?

    I found it worked pretty well in Tomb of Annihilation, but I can't remember if it was the rules in that adventure or whether it was a house rule. I had two markers, one for the players on their map and one for me on the DM layer (I use roll20). If they got lost (failed survival check) I rolled...

    D&D 5E (2014) Tomb of Annihilation campaign recaps

    Also - I never expected Artus to die. I thought he would be rescued and reveal that Acererak has taken the ring of winter. But where is the ring now? Who did Acererak trade it with? And for what? But no - Acererak Artus got killed by Rutgar while in the sack and they never even opened the sack...

    D&D 5E (2014) Tomb of Annihilation campaign recaps

    Next campaign will be homebrew in Eberron, but with new level 1 characters. I also don't have a plan - I'm waiting for the players to create characters so we can see what threads the backgrounds bring up. They have decided that they want to work for a criminal organisation, so it will be a...

    D&D 5E (2014) Tomb of Annihilation campaign recaps

    HI all, here is my final recap. I totally thought it was going to be a TPK at the start and it just seemed to get worse and worse for the players. This was one of the single most fun encounters I have ever run as a DM. https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/8074641/day-119-2am-the-end

    D&D 5E (2014) Tomb of Annihilation campaign recaps

    One more write up to do. We played on Thursday night in an extra long session and I haven't had a chance yet. The campaign is now officially over now though.

    D&D General 10 Adventures to Make You a Better DM.

    I agree with that. I'm putting together my new campaign at the moment and want to try something that I have never had in my nearly 40 years of playing D&D - run a city based campaign with a strong home base. I feel this will be a challenge for me, but I will not do my usual thing of planning far...

    D&D 5E (2014) Tomb of Annihilation campaign recaps

    Wait till they find out who was in the sack. They just murdered someone significant.

    D&D 5E (2014) Tomb of Annihilation campaign recaps

    We played last night :) The players destroyed the atropal and the soulmonger, and now part of the party is facing Acererak while one of the party is off on his own adventure. Never split the party, especially when fighting the boss...

    D&D 5E (2014) Lost Mine of Phandelver campaign recaps (2019)

    Nicely done. Was that a map you already had that you adjusted the adventure to fit?
