[QUOTE="Bacon Bits, post: 8099529, member: 6777737"] Has anyone got any criticism of the Kobold Press adventures for 5e? I like to hear praise, but I'd like to hear something more critical from someone who has run the adventures before. I've mostly been re-running old AD&D adventures and Dungeon adventures and translating them to 5e, or else running WotC adventures or the Goodman Games adventures. Do you need to have the KP monster books to run their adventures? Personally I've found third party monster books a mixed bag where, oftentimes, the monsters are so strange or unique that they sometimes become [I]too exotic[/I] to fit in any campaign not purpose built for them. Are there any issues with adventures presented for both 5e and PF, one way or the other? Are the map packs worth the extra cost? Are they really just maps, or are they handouts, too? Are there maps in the modules and these really are just intended for VTTs? The printed books are expensive. How is the book quality? Page quality? Art quality? [/QUOTE]
