    D&D 5E (2014) Tomb of Annihilation - how's it going so far?! **spoilers**

    Several of the guides have explored before, and want to go back to certain areas so they would know what's around those. I think most would know about leeches, diseases, etc but maybe not. . . I think Faroul & Gondolo are the two nitwits who would know the least.

    D&D 5E (2014) Tomb of Annihilation - how's it going so far?! **spoilers**

    So anyway . . . back to OP. There's lots to do in Port N, exploring the city at least for a session or two is a must, and at least finding out about guides and (likely) hiring one of them. Picking up a few special items like the rain catcher and bug dope seem pretty important, as well as...

    D&D 5E (2014) Tomb of Annihilation - how's it going so far?! **spoilers**

    Err... It's been out for over 2 weeks already, read through already. Same could be said for reviews ;) In any case, doesn't seem like many are rolling on it yet so I'm sure we'll see more feedback on gameplay in the days and weeks ahead.

    D&D 5E (2014) Tomb of Annihilation - how's it going so far?! **spoilers**

    First off, don't want to start whole sandbox / railroad discussion, really want to get into using book. I've had time to skim & consider ToA, and I think it's top notch. The book is chock full of fantastic stuff, and I can't wait to get rolling with it. The content is pretty overwhelming, and...

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D Beyond - Adventures

    As I mentioned in another post, with Adobe Acrobat Standard DC I can edit, comment, highlight, delete whole pages, print PDF etc. I really like the DDB version, although I'm starting wonder how many tabs I can have open at the same time :confused: At this point, think I'll review online and...

    Calgary SE D&D 5E group looking for 1-2 new committed players

    Fun, casual group looking to add some new faces due to some recent turnovers. When - Sunday afternoons, 4-8 pm in SE Calgary, Mckenzie Lake area just off 130th Ave. We try and play weekly, although occasionally take long weekends off for family commitments. Ideal player(s) would be committed...

    Tomb of Annihilation Is Here - What Do You Think?

    So impressed with DDB version, able to print and highlight, mark up, draw on etc without ruining book. Still, miss holding the book in my hands rather than a binder but I'll take the trade. Missing out on poster map too, but should be able to use PDF in some form or another.

    Tomb of Annihilation Is Here - What Do You Think?

    Not sure about your gang, but suggest you'll have more than a year to figure it out! I can't believe the amount of stuff in the adventure, unless your group is jumping right to the end. The are DEX saves, and the bodies of one or more of the PC's can clog the trap so it doesn't work...

    Tomb of Annihilation Is Here - What Do You Think?

    Really enjoying first read through (Beyond version - export to PDF is sweet), up to Chapter 3. Chapter 2 is stuffed with ideas, hooks, encounters, some with a real quirky vibe that I think is fantastic (Orolunga, Wreck of the Star Goddess, and Yellyark ;) are my favorites so far). Some great...

    Tomb of Annihilation Is Here - What Do You Think?

    For those that bought 'special edition' book in store, what's on poster map? One side is player's map of Chult, what's on the other? I bought Beyond version and impressed with it so far, might cancel Amazon pre order of book if poster map is nothing special. I didn't end up using the one in CoS...

    Tomb of Annihilation Is Here - What Do You Think?

    Cellar of Death is reads pretty well, interesting fast-paced mission I think my gang will enjoy it. Already have an existing NPC in mind and did set up already so will skip the first part.

    The lizard king adventure into from Shawn Merwin says "real meat of theTomb of Annihilation adventure begins when the player charactersreach 4th or 5th level."

    Tomb of Annihilation Is Here - What Do You Think?

    Still trying to decide if I want to wait for Amazon to deliver on 19th or buy now . . . pretty much double $ if I'm impatient. Dragon + had good sneak peak, although revealed a little too much for my taste. I recall reading somewhere PC's could start at 1,3,5 level or something like that? Any...

    Dragon+ Issue 15 Is Out!

    Had a quick skim, looks great. Chult maps are sweet, although I suspect they meant 'sacred space' not 'scared space' lol. They have a very different feel to them, pretty pumped about ToA!
