No D&D Expeditions adventure this time?

There was an adventure. I downloaded it already.

Called "The Occupation of Szith Morcane"

DDEX 3_3.

Ah! Found it! I scrolled through the table of contents too quickly and didn't realize it was included with Tavern Tales! Thanks for the heads-up!

Surprised they are still giving away Adventure League Modules.. don't get me wron,g it's very nice.. but just shocked.. figured it was a 1 or 2 time deal..

It is cool. I've had players try out AL because of it.

You know, I really don't know what I expect with these... but it just doesn't scratch my itch for in between game sessions.

I really am not sure I even know what the hell I want; more meat and potatoes perhaps? Like not really written and spelled out adventures, but something for my table. I get so excited every time a new issue comes out, and then 15 minutes later I feel disappointed. Which, by the way, is totally unfair to the staff as the magazine was free to read.

Just wanted to say: appreciate the honesty whule being both respectful and critical.

Um... I'm confused, I guess.

Is there some way to get Adventure League modules besides that WotC gives them away?

They're free no matter how you get them, but they were previously only available to people who officially signed up to be dungeon masters for D&D Encounters.

You could get them before, but you had to get a password for a website from your FLGS that was running the Adventure league.. (and you had to be playing in it)
