    D&D General Ed Greenwood: How The Realms Began

    The Forgotten Realms is a fantastic setting for D&D and always has been. It's open-ended nature has been perfect for every edition of the game. Though I did not discover game play in the Realms till 4th Edition, I went back and looked at all that the setting has offered over the years...

    D&D General Ed Greenwood: How The Realms Began

    Greenwood certainly deserves an abundance of credit for the allure, diversity and charm of the Forgotten Realms. It has been an amazing setting for Dungeons & Dragons over the decades. I have loved playing and DMing in that playground (the ill-conceived Spellplague is the exception). But gosh...

    D&D 5E How did the final battle in Out of the Abyss go for your table? [spoilers]

    We played through Chapter 17: Against the Demon Lords a two of Saturdays ago. It went so badly we decided to pretend the game session never happened and will revisit the chapter next in a couple of weeks. While the sidebar on page 218 offers the idea of players taking on the role of a demon...

    Great tip, thank you for sharing to the OP. I used it to get Dungeonology and Catalyst: a Rogue One Story. It took a third off my order. Sweet!

    D&D 5E Short adventure(s) compiliation

    Vault of the Dracolich I'd throw Vault of the Dracolich out there. It's a D&D Next adventure. We liked it and it was pretty short. The Adventurers League has a bunch of adventures, too, if you have access to them. Browsing through dndclassics.com also offers a lot of potential. We've had...

    Mike Schley's MASSIVE Forgotten Realms Map From SCAG!

    Schley's Map Rules I tried to read through this whole thread. But, Silthen and his determined debate was too much and way off topic. By page seventeen I gave up. My purpose for posting today is to praise the recent Schley FR map. I think it's great. I used the 15% discount, which was a nice...

    D&D 5E XP vs Story Line Progression Leveling model in 5th edition

    We switched to story-line leveling when we started Princes of the Apocalypse earlier this year. We instantly loved it. It's way, way less work. And it gives us the flexibility to scale with the adventure as the story develops in challenge as well as plot. Our only other 5E campaign was Ghosts...

    Ghosts of Dragonspear Castle

    5 out of 5 rating for Ghosts of Dragonspear Castle My group of players and I loved Ghosts of Dragonspear Castle. It's a compelling adventure with great theme and story. Daggerford makes for a great home base for players. The adventure presents myriad challenges and unique creatures to face-off...

    WizKids Elemental Evil miniatures boosters

    Why put clear "ultra rare" minis in these booster packs? I got a forest gnome ranger and had to look it up to see if it was a mistake or not! Apparently, it's ultra rare. I was ultra disappointed.

    Curse of the Crimson Throne Adventure Path

    4 out of 5 rating for Curse of the Crimson Throne Adventure Path It's hard to follow-up withe the amazing Rise of the Runelords. But, Curse of the Crimson Throne does a pretty good job. The adventure Path moves south to the city/state of Korvosa and explores that interesting region, its people...

    Age of Worms Adventure Path

    5 out of 5 rating for Age of Worms Adventure Path The second adventure path after Paizo learned the ropes after Shackled City, Age of Worms has the most classic feel, flow and theme of any adventure path. Nominally set in Greyhawk, Age of Worms brings that venerable setting to life in a fun...

    D&D 5E How many attacks should a two weapon fighter get?

    I appreciate this post, Lord Vangarel, as we have the same question. And thanks to MerricB for the great answer. I know this is not a rules forum, but I'll pose this related question while I am here if I may. Does this two-weapon fighting action assumes the character(s) is using two light...

    D&D 5E Prepping for Princes

    'Ware the Black Earth Priest Consider the Chamber of Moving Stones in your games. Last night I TPKed a table of eight 2nd-level PCs with the Black Earth Priest (CR 3), Larrakh. The six Bringers of Woe (Bandits CR 1/8) softened-up the party pretty well. But, the real damage was conveyed via the...

    Princes of the Apocalypse

    5 out of 5 rating for Princes of the Apolocalypse "Princes of the Apocalypse" is awesome. It has a strong story. While elemental evil is not a new idea in D&D, the way "Princes of the Apocalypse" allows gamers to tell it in the Forgotten Realms certainly is. The book is thick with immense...

    Learn about D&D organized play options

    I was asking about about D&D Encounters on Wednesday nights. Not sure what all of the D&DEX1-2-3 (or whatever) stuff refers to. Just wondering solely about Encounters. It looks like 18 March is the date for the new story arch to begin. Hopefully we'll see a pdf soon, like we did for Hoard of the...
