I wonder if a megadungeon would be better. A bit like what Gary did with Castle Grayhawk. You can still have random groups play and check out a few/several rooms each time and always just return to the safe place at the end of the night. You could have different levels of the dungeon for...

Thank you for trying to spread the game to new players. Hopefully some will become DMs themselves and the payoff will become something you can spread into a true west marches game, maybe letting you be a player once in a while. I also think if you are doing the work, you get to choose the...

I have run things like a convention and have all pre-made PCs. The whole table could pick from several and there was a few left over. It is a trial to see if they like it and want to play more. Maybe most things are pre-made and some options like name and race can be left to choose. It might...

Does this mean that there is nothing cool coming out next year? I mean that they must get a heads up or something from Wizards with what the line up is.

I like the spending gold idea to speed things up. This mirrors real world rich people getting things by spending gold. I'm still not a fan of bastions just being the player side and the DM should not interfere. My group lets me do anything I want to it though and sometimes things happen.

Thank you for bringing this back, it seems like a lot of work for you.

I think some depends on what I have planned or how much real-world time I have. If I want/need the party to be someplace I might just handwave things. I tend to have something along the road. Last time the party traveled from Westbridge to Waterdeep they tended to wander about. There was a...

I see the OP has not been around since 2011. I wonder if they still play 4e?

I say, good try but no. A door is a piece of a tree like trying to cast the spell on a leg of a dead corpse without having the skull. I get the other spells like talking to a fish and wanting to have a normal conversation with it or a plant and wanting a flower to tell the difference...

I always liked having a place to rest and a place to talk or maybe get aid. I remember Keep on the Shadowfell (KotS) had an illusionary wall that his some more hallway. Our group found it and was able to take a rest. Maybe there is a secret door that leads to an old shrine or someplace where...

I was thinking of having the keep further into the Sword Mountains south of Phandalin where it could be more on the edge of civilization. Phandalin could be a resupply point or safe zone.

Giant mythical fantasy beast, Damage determined by rolling dice, What are we waiting for.

I like the style and feel of them. I do not know if I could use them at my table though. There is a lot of busyness and colors that make it hard to see quickly, like some of the new dice that are out.

I would like to see a follow-on to the new box set to take the campaign to level 7ish. Something similar to the 3 pdfs that came out for after Icespire Peak box set. I also feel that they will sub out a campaign book to a 3pp to built some tie-ins with other publishers and allow more to the...

I was torn between magic items and spells, but chose spells. I could use some cool bad-guy spells from clerics of evil gods. I recall using the old powers and pantheons books for FR and limiting spells to certain gods. Gave them a flavor- much like 11 herbs and spices.

I would think most of the time I'm LG. I obey the law and don't murder-hobo. I'm rather boring I guess.

It was not that dark in the daytime, but at night it was darker than 3 feet up a bulls butt. Not even stars- and someone thought it was a good idea to have a troop movement cross country.

I recall the darkness of the Panama jungle. It took us 8 hours to travel 1 mile up and down and through the jungle avoiding the mud and thorns and rivers. We needed to hold onto the person in front of you to not get lost.

I'm old. Whatever you kids call music these days. At least I have an iPhone, but it is an 8.
