I’m looking for the text of an article from Wizards website called Chaos Scar: Adventures in the Ruined Valley. Any help would be appreciated. GOOGLE returns a bunch of dead links. I couldn’t find it at the wayback machine. Hopefully someone grabbed the text. Thanks.

My son wants me to run a game for him and his friends. They are all 13 or so. This will probably be their first or second d&d game for any of them. There will be 4 to 5 players. Looking for suggestions on what to run both system and adventure. I run a regular game for adults as it is so I'm...

I can report a couple of things Windows ten + Silverlight + IE works. Not firefox, not Chrome, not Edge just IE. Not really a techy guy so I can't explain it but I don't think silverlight plays well with the other browsers. IE is installed with your default Win10 install. Just search for...

I just signed up today. Downloaded Silverlight and Installed. Have tried Chrome, IE, and Firefox. No luck.

I completely skipped 4e. Played pathfinder and now 5e instead. While working up a new 5e campaign and getting ready to kick it off I was looking at some creature options from 4e, and then that led to reading some of the 4e rules and finally that led to wanting to actually give it a try. I...

I'm thinking of treating inspiration like Savage World bennies, and then expanding the options of what you can do with by cribbing from the original Eberron action points list. I hand out poker chips for inspiration and bennies that way I see them, the player sees them, and then keep a stack on...

is there a preferred print method for these? Just card stock and cut?

I actually take the opposite approach. I use the session aftermath write up for a couple of things. First I highlight the session, quick recap of the action and use it to hand out clues that they breezed by or sometimes even missed. This way they have in writing where things stands, what they...

If were creating a healing cantrip I would probably try to tie it in to the hit die/short rest mechanic. something along the lines of you may immediatly expend up to 1 hit die. It accomplishes what I would be trying to, namely, keeping low level characters alive longer (albeit at the expense...

I've just started running a new group (consisting of my family of all things ages 12-41...) and I'm basically going to re-write the Ruins of Adventure module. I'm looking for additional information to mine on Phlan, and the Northern Moonsea area of the Forgotten Realms, as well as information...

Eberron assumes a level of magic far in excess of the normal D&D world, now a great portion of the magic is used to present the world as an analogue of 19th century technology. D&D 5e seems to present a baseline which is much lower in both magic quantity and magic quality. The magic in Eberron...

4th level feels about right as an entry point. Enough adventuring opportunity to make a name for yourself and get an invite or come to the attention of an organization that has benefits associated with it. I like the idea of using the Renown system to establish criteria. I think entry quests/...

The original thinking on prestige classes, that they would be used as both a character development tool (by joining an organization within the campaign world, pledging loyalty etc) as well as an advancement tool is still somewhat valid in my opinion. Granting players a mechanical reward for...

This may or may not be appropriate here. If not please forgive and I'll move on. I've recently moved and found a new group. We are interested in giving 5th edition a shot. I'll be DMing. I;ve been consistently impressed with the quality of the Paize AP's and have chosen to run my game in...

Sometime in the next 6 months or so I'll be starting a new Campaign using the 5th edition rules set and I'm looking for a campaign setting. I can always Homebrew and I probably have the time to make that happen but if there's something out there worth looking at I'd be interested in hearing...
