    New ALPG (and ALDMG) have dropped!

    I do not advocate preventing players from accessing spellcasting services. While table variance should be expected in respect to the events of season 1, the spellcasting services should still be made available by a hag at every table. Whether she is pleased with the PCs or not is another story...

    Death House Launch Event Bonus

    There is a list of administrators that you can find on the dndadventurersleague.org website. As the mists of Ravenloft cleared last night however, it revealed a new website design which may take a little while to get used to. On the new website scroll over the Find a Game tab, and click on...

    New ALPG (and ALDMG) have dropped!

    Good catch. I will mention that to the admins and see what was intended. Based on discussions over the past several weeks however, I am fairly certain that different was the intent (that or the additional options was in reference to the preceding paragraphs regarding our friendly Hag Jenny)...

    New ALPG (and ALDMG) have dropped!

    Good questions all. I will try and answer them based on what I know 1. Unknown. My gut reaction is that since you are undead, you aren't dead so your time spent as a vampire wouldn't count for the purpose of resurrection madness. 2. Expect table variation. I think the easiest approach (and one...

    New ALPG (and ALDMG) have dropped!

    Since I suspect these questions to be common, I have created a new thread with instructions (for stores) for getting certs for the Death House Launch event. I figured that if someone from the store isn't a member of this forum, there is a good chance that at least one of their players might be...

    Death House Launch Event Bonus

    As has been announced on social media, there is a special bonus for stores running the Death House Launch Event in the form of exclusive magic item certificates for three magic items within the adventure. Two of these items are exclusive to in-store Launch Events and are listed as mundane items...

    New ALPG (and ALDMG) have dropped!

    Your guess is as good as mine. I expect it will be shortly as the admins were hoping for it to be ready when the ALPG / ALDMG came out.

    Renown and Downtime in Curse of Strahd

    As a general rule there should be approximately 1 episode/ level (based on past seasons hardcover adventures). This isn't always the case however - as HotDQ episode 5 was very short and didn't give a level so this is not a hard rule.

    New ALPG (and ALDMG) have dropped!

    It has been noted by the admins that there are a handful of typos and omissions. SCAG is an evergreen option and should be listed for all story origins Half-elves can still be blade singers. They count as elves for the purpose of the guide. If there are any further typos I will let people...

    Renown and Downtime in Curse of Strahd

    Normally, characters earn 10 downtime and 1 renown each time they complete a chapter/episode of a hardcover adventure. As the campaign staff has (collectively) only just got our hands on the book (which was released today at WPN stores), it may take a week or more in order to determine where the...

    New ALPG (and ALDMG) have dropped!

    It gets rid of the dark gift, but it does not remove the associated story award and I quote: The interesting thing I note about the dark gift, is that it is removed any time the character receives a remove curse spell, even if it was intended to remove another effect (such as Lycanthropy for...

    New ALPG (and ALDMG) have dropped!

    It clearly states that the story award Touched By the Mists is not removed when the curse is lifted. No method of removing this story award is listed anywhere within the document. The EEPC is only allowed for characters with the Elemental Evil story origin. Such characters must choose either the...

    Which adventures in the DMs guild are AL legal? (please put this in player's guide)

    There is something in the PG - it's on p3 called "Character Creation". Anyone who reads P3 would learn that only character options listed for a Story Origin are legal..... I can more easily forgive someone for not realizing that the brotherhood of cloaks or Mulmaster Backgrounds were also legal...

    Which adventures in the DMs guild are AL legal? (please put this in player's guide)

    The rule has always been: If it is not listed as an option for your Story Origin, or you lack campaign documentation (such as an article with the "AL Legal" logo, or an official certificate) - that option is not available for your character. If an adventure/article does not contain the...

    Help with my Paladin

    Here is a repost of my LE Paladin of Tiamat - Taevyn Blackwyrm from a previous thread. There was an entire thread devoted to this character over on the defunct wotc website, but alas - I never made a backup of that thread.

    Errata incoming! (Haunted One background)

    The following quote (from the above article) sums up exactly what I was trying to articulate (but apparently failing to) As I kept saying - aasimar and/or the DMG need to be listed for your story origin, or you need a special certificate (the aforementioned "campaign documentation" mentioned...

    Errata incoming! (Haunted One background)

    We both said the same thing. I was just being pedantic when I said that the DMG itself (not just a passing reference to it) needs to be part of your story origin. No existing story origin has this option however (but a future story origin might which is why I said that). Trust me: there is...

    Errata incoming! (Haunted One background)

    You can only choose options from an allowed rules source. The rules for aasimar are in the DMG. The fact that they are referenced in SCAG is irrelevant - the character needs to have the DMG as a rules source for their story origin or a special certificate that adds aasimar to your allowed rules

    Errata incoming! (Haunted One background)

    Because it has been said that any character option (which should be clarified as: race, class, background, skill, language, equipment, etc) in the PHB is legal at all tables. Creatures summoned by a spell are not character options (the spell itself is). Players and/or DMs are limited to the...

    Errata incoming! (Haunted One background)

    Except in AL - in which case all PHB character options (even those that require DM approval) are legal. But yes, in general (aka, non-AL settings) - exotic languages would require DM approval.
