    D&D 5E (2014) [Princes of the Apocalypse] Anybody running this?

    I ran this but sadly stopped when I had a TPK in Riverguard Keep. (AL Game). Party had done the Spire and Monastery but not the Keep, so I added a few reavers here and there. Due to some appalling planning the group drew most of the forces to the keep. Im now playing in a non AL game. We have...

    That player in the back of the room

    Kinda reminds me of a guy in my Expeditions games. He started our as a pacifistic Monk serving Eldath, the God associated with Peace. Cue to 5 games later he is now kicking ass for Silvanus. There has been a lot of people in game questioning his world view and outlook.

    Exactly how important is it to start the game with a +3 ability score modifier?

    Generally Ill only have one stat at +3. Another may become so later at the level 4 bump.I generally have more well rounded stats through my character than really high and really low stuff.

    D&D 5E (2014) Feathergale Spire: The players want revenge!

    We just defeated the Old Guy at the top of the Tower at the Burning Man festival. It was a VERY tough battle. AFter copping full damage from a Fireball and a few other spells, I was down on 1 hp for the last 2 rounds. I managed to charm one of the cultists to help us in that battle. Now we...

    Have we failed to discourage min-maxing?

    THere is a great investigative scenario in SEason 2. Ive run in twice and both times it ran really well. I cant remember the name off the top of my head but there is a lot of Non Combat exp awards in it. Id like to see more like that.

    Vistani PCs

    Half Vistani ? The Vistani are a ethnic race of Humans. They are not the product of a mummy Vistani and a daddy Moon Elf.

    D&D 5E (2014) Barovia's world

    77IM: Ive got all my old 2e products still when Ravenloft was at it's height. No reference is ever made to Barovias world, and there comes to be a lot of domains and not just in the core region. Very few Domain entries actually list with any details where the Darklord and his domain actually...

    Dusk elf stats?

    Yeah Rahadin is/was a Dusk Elf himself. Kinda Poetic in a way that Strahd got a Dusk Elf to do it.

    D&D 5E (2014) Feathergale Spire: The players want revenge!

    Pukunni: Thats a good question. I purposely made sure that I only signed myself up to do it. Renwick told us how his brother had fed him a potion on the battlefield which turned him into a Lich because he couldnt bare to be without him. THen I guess the Brother died and 'some religous cult'...

    D&D 5E (2014) Feathergale Spire: The players want revenge!

    MY character promised Renwick that he would help him steal his brothers bones (claim them!) from the Knights of Sammular. Only my character promised though.

    D&D 5E (2014) Is Strahd hard to defeat?

    Have you met most players? THe art of retreat in the 2016 game is a thing of the past and by the time the party TRIES to retreat its far too late. Too many rpgs have establish a win or die falacy in most gamers ethos. Strahd should turn up multiple times to harass and humiliate the party. In...

    D&D 5E (2014) Feathergale Spire: The players want revenge!

    Yeah we didnt properly cleanse the keep which was too our detriment. However before we left the bandits and cultists had a falling out and the bandits left after we killed Grimjaw. When we returned to the Keep, we found the bandits had returned by the cultists had not (only the Boat Captain was...

    Watch Chris Perkins' First Episode of DICE, CAMERA, ACTION

    The sound was perfectly fine at the start. Then it just seemed to suddenly cut too low. In the end I had to save the video locally and use my sound software to boost the sound before I could really view it. The 2 lady gamers were there best gamers there.

    Dusk elf stats?

    Considering the average Barovians take on Demihumans in general and the fact that the total population of Barovia is approx 3,000, the actual volume of Dusk Elves would be negligible.

    Requesting Death House help - SPOILERS AHEAD - DO NOT READ IF YOU ARE NOT DMING

    Absurd? Hardly. Ravenloft is not a nice place for people 'fighting' the system. Strahd tolerates uprisings only so far as he is really directing and controlling them. He gets to use the mist for whatever he damn well wants to. I had an amusing incident in my game where a player sent their...

    Thoughts on running Death House

    Has anyone else found that many of their players are going with Factionless characters this season? Ive got 2 guys who ALWAYS create factionless characters but on my second running of Death House I had a single Zhentarim and everyone else was Factionless.

    Here Comes The STRAHD DM SCREEN

    Its almost like the relationship between WOTC and GF9 is a 'I know the Manager over at GF9, they do good stuff. We should use them!.' 'But their costs are too high and they never seem to get stuff out on' 'You dont understand, thats my wifes cousin you are talking about. WE ARE using them!'...
