My fighters randomly rolled 18/00 for their strength almost every time.

Here's my journal entry from the first session: https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/8167102/1st-2nd-of-zarantyr-forgotten-relics-session-1 Edit: Whoops. I had the link set to private. I have fixed that now.

They all stayed dead. In every case the other characters have escaped but got no chance to get the body, or did not have the resources or access to get such powerful magic.

I just don't understand the assumption that characters don't die in 5e. Every one of my campaigns has had at least one death and most had several. I play rules as written and it can get very hairy from time to time.

I thought about doing that. How is the game going? How hard was the conversion?

First game confirmed for Thursday next week. Eep. I'm always nervous at the start of a new campaign.

Ooo. Nice. Particularly as one of the characters has a background that involves smuggling 'corrupted' dragonshards from Zilargo. This could go very well.

Tools down guys, there's no point in making any more movies. Ever.

Here are the PCs:

Hi everyone, with the release (not so long ago) of Eberron: Rising From the Last War, I will be starting a new campaign in a couple of weeks. I thought I'd start a thread where everyone is welcome to post about their Eberron campaigns. Not only will this give you an interested audience (even if...

I love it. That's good DMing right there. The game isn't as fun if there isn't the chance of a TPK. I've run a game where all of the party were down except the cleric and there was only one enemy left. If the cleric hit he would kill the enemy and be able to restore his party. If he missed then...

I still think the 3e module 'The Red Hand of Doom' is the best example of warfare as a D&D campaign. Lots going on, but the party are generally on specific strategic missions on the edge of battle - stuff that will turn the tide. It's playable on a character level but you still feel like your...

It was one session: Roll20 My memory was faulty though - it was the next session that the scorpion fatality happened. By that time 3 party members had died or been taken leaving only one chararacter.: Roll20

:(

I found it worked pretty well in Tomb of Annihilation, but I can't remember if it was the rules in that adventure or whether it was a house rule. I had two markers, one for the players on their map and one for me on the DM layer (I use roll20). If they got lost (failed survival check) I rolled...

Also - I never expected Artus to die. I thought he would be rescued and reveal that Acererak has taken the ring of winter. But where is the ring now? Who did Acererak trade it with? And for what? But no - Acererak Artus got killed by Rutgar while in the sack and they never even opened the sack...

Next campaign will be homebrew in Eberron, but with new level 1 characters. I also don't have a plan - I'm waiting for the players to create characters so we can see what threads the backgrounds bring up. They have decided that they want to work for a criminal organisation, so it will be a...

HI all, here is my final recap. I totally thought it was going to be a TPK at the start and it just seemed to get worse and worse for the players. This was one of the single most fun encounters I have ever run as a DM. https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/8074641/day-119-2am-the-end

One more write up to do. We played on Thursday night in an extra long session and I haven't had a chance yet. The campaign is now officially over now though.
