    Check out the Season 4 Sneak Previews!

    My issue here is , Lets say Death House is the actual first bit of the Hardcover book (which logically it sounds like it is). I see it exactly like the pdf from past seasons, you move from it into the hardcover and bang on you go. So consistent story, then onward. Lets fast forward to say to...

    Check out the Season 4 Sneak Previews!

    To be honest, If I run Death House Im going to recommend that my players playing that keep that character for the Curse of Strahd Hardcover and create a separate character for the AL Scenarios (do you know how hard it is to NOT type Expeditions?). Even though Encounters and Expeditions have...

    DDAL Here's WotC's 14-Adventure CURSE OF STRAHD Series For DDAL

    Lhorgrim: Correct. Whether you purchase it, or the store (if you run at a store) purchases it, or someone in your group purchases it for you to run: either way someone has to purchase it. Like PFS once you yourself purchase it, then you own it forever.

    Check out the Season 4 Sneak Previews!

    I must admit, I did quickly run the numbers based on previous exp awarded for 2 hour versions of 1-4 tier and other variations to see what sort of level people just playing Season 4 AL scenarios could get to. I think there will be more than a few people spending the 20 downtime for the 4-5.

    AL VS LFR of 4th and why I'm so disappointed

    Firstly, while Im an LC Im also the AL DM for 2 of my local stores. We dont have a whole lot of AL going on and I dont often get to see the players outside of the game but Im often getting players talking about their AL characters before and after the game and what they think a certain plot...

    why no Warforged

    Which is why I despise what LFR did to the realms in its pursuit of expanding player numbers. Growth for Growths sake should be confined to Cancerous Tumors.

    What does current Encounters look like?

    Dropping in is always gonna be hit or miss esp late into the season.

    Season 4 Curse of Strahd and Adventurers League

    I never realised the changes that had gone on in Barovia with the addition of the additional people and territory. Looking forward to seeing the animosity between the Barovians and the Gundaraks

    What does current Encounters look like?

    I still use the terminology Encounters/Expeditions for my local games. Mostly because the people know it and trying to shift up the terminology during an OP campaign generally dosnt work too well. What does Encounters Look like? For me it started off as playing in a group/table from level 1...

    why no Warforged

    Ive no problem at all with Warforged in an rpg I should clarify. Just that rpg has to be in an Eberron or Planescape game. Not in FR and thus not AL.

    D&D Podcast - Talking about Curse of Strahd With Chris Perkins and Tracy Hickman

    THanks, I hope to listen to it soon. Have been re-reading a lot of what I still have of my 2e ravenlofy stuff before I hit the 3.0/3.5 stuff. Great stuff so far. I think Im gonna bring back Darion Drakov my Warrior from an old 2e Ravenloft campaign and one of many sons of Vlad Drakov (If you...

    What's The Deal With D&D Translations?

    (Tin foil Conspiracy hat on) If people havnt worked it out by now, WOTC is part of the American push to make foreign languages irrelevant for gamers. They WANT you to start using English in all their rpgs. This is so all gamers share a common language in English and they dont have to release...

    Season 4 Curse of Strahd and Adventurers League

    My fave is still Ankhtepot (because of my love of all things Egyptian Mythology). I find his realm just as interesting as him I used Fakolvnia as the centre realm in my long running game. I have mixed views on Vlad Drakov. Mainly because in my campaign the heroes killed him, but also because...

    No WotC At Gen Con This Year?

    If they had a beef, then they wouldnt be asking Baldman games to run their games there.. they just wouldnt be there at all. I think people who are naturally prone to seeing conspiracies (yes, Elvis really is dead) are going to see Conspiracies. I dont for a second thing all this is because of...

    Season 4 Curse of Strahd and Adventurers League

    This is a bit of me tongue in Cheek, But Id like to see the option in the last or semi final last scenario for Season 4, to have an option for a character on the table to become a Darklord and be removed from the campaign forever. Now I cant really fathom a reason how this would happen...

    CURSE OF STRAHD: Here's The Official Announcement & Cover Image!

    Am looking forward to this and having a 'smaller environment' . Barovia was simply a small Valley within the Balinok Mountains. It had a small village named Barovia and Castle Ravenloft. That was effectively 'it'. (it had some minor forests and the like) Im extremely happy that we have a 1-10...

    No WotC At Gen Con This Year?

    Winter Fantasy was also at one point called 'D&D Experience' I believe.

    Season 4 Curse of Strahd and Adventurers League

    First: So happy about the Ravenloft reveal. I ran Ravenloft for about 4 years in 2e. I was always the dm (bar 2 months), but really dont know Ravenloft as well as I should .But to be honest, it sounds like are only getting Barovia. Second: THe need to only play Season 4 scenarios with a...
