Just got an e-mail from Amazon.de saying that the delivery date of my order that was placed on 29/09 was delayed from Friday 10/10 to somewhere between 5/11 and 11/11 :( Might be a good sign for Wotc, but not for me and others that are waiting :)

Aha, ok. And is the boy still a prisoner 1 month later until Glasstaff finds time to visit Thundertree or is he already gone? Getting the Redbrands to attack them if they went to Phandalin right after the Goblin Ambush might overpower them. I got a good suggestion elsewhere saying that you...

Good question, one I've asked about before too. I like your idea marcelos Glasstaff then could have told the other Redbrands that he caught the pregen rogue stealing money which would give them a good reason for wanting to kill him/her. The only thing I wonder about is why Glasstaff hasn't...

I'm always disappointed when I see an update was made in my topic and it's about this subject. CapnZapp TrippyHippy Now shake hands and help me with completing the background for Anton :D Do you guys have any further ideas? The game is up in 10 days and finishing this PC seems to be one of...

I ordered it from the German Amazon site on 29/09 and it had an expected delivery date of Friday 10/10 Still hasn't shipped yet though :( When you check the item out now then it says it has an expected delivery date of 2 to 4 weeks. I wonder what caused this. Does Wotc only start their...

Indeed, having a similar goal to the other pregens could also help. My example in my previous post could bring the archer(Human Folk Hero) and Anton together in clearing Thunder Tree. But then their future handling of the situation could be different. The Folk Hero want to drive the dragon off...

Haha, I can imagine it already :D "What eggs?" "Those in the corner behind you..." "Oh..." Well, the book doesn't really say you have to fight the dragon, it says drive off. But indeed, it doesn't offer more advice for alternatives through RP. Do you play with the pregen characters & personal...

@Mistwell @the Jester Indeed, I forgot to add the skills :) The Outlander background gives the Athletics & Survival proficiencies. While as Barbarian there are 2 to choose from Animal Handling, Athletics, Intimidation, Nature, Perception and Survival. It seems I made a mistake there and...

Don't worry everyone, all advice is appreciated :) TrippyHippy I agree that if the average (Human) Commoner only has 10 on all stats then having a halfling only half their size be much stronger than them can seem a bit off. I'm trying to find a good balance between realism and fun. If my...

Thanks about the advice, I'll keep it in mind :) The character doesn't start with a shield but I'll remind her of the possibility when they get to Phandalin.

How did you handle the cultists? Did the dragon try to deceive the PC's in any way or hide part of the truth?

Background info: I'm new to DnD and will be DM'ing the Starter Set for newbies in a few weeks time. I asked all my players to give me their top 3 preferred pregen chars in advance so that I could assign them. The rogue was quite popular so my sister offered to create a new character which...

Very nice, that's how the dragon should be used. It's a nice RP encounter and doesn't have to end in a fight.

Someone asked a similar question on the DnD Reddit about a month ago http://www.reddit.com/r/DnD/comments/2efa7r/transitioning_from_starter_set_to_hoard_of_the/ I think this part is the most usefull: 1) Lost Mines of Phandelver supports factions (and introduces them to rank one of them), so...

Haha, woops didn't know. Hope you don't mind I shared it here :)

Does the book propose to keep track of XP or to level up at a certain milestone like in the Starter Set?

This seems interesting. Haven't signed up yet though. Any idea if I still might get in?

Perhaps you can check out the Encounter Builder from Asmor on the DnD reddit. http://www.reddit.com/r/DnD/comments/2hen4a/if_youre_interested_in_my_encounter_builder/ Do you get the same results then?

As a new DM I like it. I can use it as the default background and always give my own spin to it if I want.

A reddit user named Asmor added some features to his Monster List / Encounter Builder. Thought I'd share. https://www.reddit.com/r/DnD/comments/2h6gic/5e_how_crs_scale_against_party_level/
