    D&D 5E (2014) A Middling DM Runs Curse of Strahd

    We've been playing together since 2021, and we average around twice a month. We usually play the most sessions during this time of year because there's nothing else to do. Sometimes I have to remind myself how lucky I got it when we get on each other's nerves. I've gone many years without...

    A Demon at the top of the Stairs: Amber Temple Session #3 The Gang took a Short Rest and recovered some HP and powers. They took their rest at the bottom of the stairs in X14 North Staircase since the wretched smell of ghasts and the creepy voices of the Dark Entities were diminished there. The...

    D&D 5E (2014) A Middling DM Runs Curse of Strahd

    I edited X3 The Empty Barracks and X12 The East Shrine. I forgot two major incidents there. This is what happens when you write a recap ten days after the fact. :rolleyes:

    Vilnius and Dark Entities: Amber Temple #2 Previously: Sleeps scouted the eastern half of the Temple’s upper floor. There was a 40-foot-tall statue in the northern part of the temple flinging fireballs at him. He ran into some Flaming Skulls and an Amber Golem. They smashed the Flaming...

    They're 8th level with some powerful magic items. Our sessions are about 3-4 hours long. I really liked that session. Lots of tension. ETA Have you started your game yet?

    D&D General Adventurers a distasteful necessity

    I have been wrestling with this idea myself for an upcoming sandbox game that I’m developing, so your post is appreciated. The game is Lankhmar using DCC rules. My definition of adventurer is somewhat different than yours because it’s specific to a city-based game. Anyway, here’s what I have so...

    INTRA-PARTY STRIFE The group left for Yester Hill to confront the Gulthias Tree. While traveling along the road to get there, Mamol spotted a human in the distance hiding in the woods.

    DCC Goodman Losing Lankhmar License

    I just saw this. :( I bought the Box Set a few years ago but haven't had a chance to play. I plan on starting up Nehwon campaign in 2026. Will their Lankhmar products still remain available in PDF? I know nothing about licenses and publishing.
