AL Intro Pamphlet for Brand New Players

[Koren n'Rhys]

That looks like a great start to me. As you note, there might be some existing descriptions that others have done already if you think your own words are good enough, but I think it sounds pretty good as is. One thought I had is to plug those bit.ly links into a QR code generator. Plop those codes on the back and it's even quicker access via your phone. I might also actually list the current storyline, and jazz it up with the Demogorgon art and RoD "logo" in the black space at the bottom. That much at least is easily updated season to season.

Nice work!

A surprisingly good start; my only criticism is in the description of "What's a Storyline?"

Players will quickly discover that the phrase "player options which are only available to characters who are created during that season" is inaccurate. I can still create an Elemental Evil character now, during the Rage of Demons storyline, if I want to.

My recommendation would be to change that text to something like having new players ask the DM what the current storyline season is and to create characters for that season (if you want the pamphlet to be relatively 'evergreen' rather than requiring edits for each new season), or to simply list the currently available seasons and note that the choice of season affects a character's build options but not which adventures the character can participate in (taking into consideration the expectation that AL will eventually begin to retire older storyline seasons), and directing them to the ALPG to learn more about how those options work.

Thanks all. I plan on making another pass at this this weekend.

Sorry all, got distracted by RL (friend went into the hospital, he's fine now).

I took the feedback and incorporated it. https://imgur.com/h3UMSXa

The plan is to have 3/sheet, but I'm wondering how common it will be for people to have access to duplex printing...it's easy for me to get doublesided prints, but I don't want to assume that for everyone.
