It's hard to do that when I'm waylaid and forced to defend myself!

Especially when you cannot rest here.

Hi to all!

Recently I finished running D&D 5ed campaign based on Baldur's gate 1 PC game to my group. So I thought that I could share materials for running if somebody is interested. For us it took 62 sessions, average duration 4 hours. We played online using TTopRPG virtual tabletop, hamachi for networking and discord for call.

Unfortunately, at the start of the campaign, I didn't write campaign notes so my main campaign file lacks the starting stuff up to Nashkel. But it's no big deal. It's just a small part. Only descriptions are missing, maps, images, handouts and stats are present.

So without further ado, if someone is interested, please let me know. Fastest way to reach me is through email themarinx [at] gmail [.] com, or you can PM me on discord. My name is MadBeard#4068 there. Here is also fine, but I'll be slower to answer you.

Cheers!

EDIT:
I forgot to mention that I'll provide link for download if someone is interested.

I’d love the link. I’m adapting it myself and running into some walls

What walls are you hitting?

I am 50 sessions into my BG2 campaign, with the party just about to enter the Underdark. Campaign log is here:

Baldur's Gate II (5e campaign log)

After wrapping up Against the Idol of the Sun, my players voted 3-1 in favor of the 1-20 campaign that I have ready to go... which is Baldur's Gate II (SoA+TOB). After writing ~295 pages for AIOS, and then having to edit it all, I am looking forward to something that takes relatively minimal...

May I have the link please? I'm planning on running BG:EE in 5e 2014 myself. Would really much appreciate your experience on the matter

Hi there. I've sent you a private message

Hypnolich has a BG1 campaign log currently going on GITP. He's using an interesting mechanic where the players can only have 1 active NPC at a time, but the passive NPCs give an always-on bonus each.
