Re: Curse of Strahd: Opinions?

Short of declaring this a sequel in a cheesy way (including reincarnated Barovian village girls with the same names), ancestors/descendants would probably be the best for handling continuity. Unfortunately, my descendants and ancestors would probably be as useless as I am for repairing my map. ;)

Re: Curse of Strahd: Opinions?

I ripped my map when I pulled it out... :cry:

I really don't see the time discrepancies with FR being a problem, but the Van Richten thing could be, especially if you are trying to make it flow with the rest of the Ravenloft setting and canon--which already has problems.

Re: BREAKING NEWS: This just happened! (DMsGuild)

I'm just going to sit patiently and daydream that all of you at the FoS decide to pool resources/talent to start a Kickstarter for the next era of Ravenloft. You could do a Setting/Monster book, and have stretch goals for commissioning other writers (Winter, Heard, Nesmith, Heyday, Conner, etc) to e...

Re: RL Arts & Crafts - Custom Tarokka Box

I just spray painted the box, printed out logos on photo paper and pasted them, then sealed it all with acrylic fixative. They are perfect for holding 2 decks which is perfect for me since I always use the 'cheat' method of doing readings by having 2 decks of cards (I already know the cards I want p...

RL Arts & Crafts - Custom Tarokka Box

Figured I'd share my little box I'm going to use to hold my tarokka cards. I reused a box from Olive Garden that had a gift card in it. It even has one of those magnetic clasps. 1.png 2-1.png What I'd really want is a box to hold my 3.5 tarokka (still my favorite for looking the most like a real tar...

Re: BREAKING NEWS: This just happened! (DMsGuild)

Ah, I see it. I might grab it since its only 3$ and might encourage others to do more quality content. I don't see how people expect to charge a dollar for a feat. How did manage to get to use the Ravenloft logo?

Re: BREAKING NEWS: This just happened! (DMsGuild)

I think the fan sites (fraternity, areas.org, etc) should weigh out all the options before going whole hog on publishing everything to dms guild. It offers a lot of great opportunities (easier to get a print on demand copy, can charge for things, access to wotc ip) but everything you put in there ca...

Re: CONFIRMED: Ravenloft for 5th Edition

I'm at work, can anybody confirm what's in this:

media.wizards.com/2016/downloads/DND/CoS_Character_Options.pdf

Just wondering if it is stuff already in the book or not.

Re: CONFIRMED: Ravenloft for 5th Edition

Yeah, the bundle is a great deal (with the 20% Gm day code) but I'm trying to figure out why the castle ravenloft maps don't seem to be up there.

Re: CONFIRMED: Ravenloft for 5th Edition

For those who don't follow Chris Perkins/Mike Mearls/Wizards_DnD/Others on Twitter, here's some brief points of interest dealing with things mentioned about Ravenloft 5E (sadly, I'm at work and can't link to the actual tweets at the moment): 1. Strahd rides on a Nightmare. The picture is cool. 2. A...

Re: 5E playtest and playtest rules discussion

I can't believe I'm actually excited about this new edition. After feeling burned from 3e and 4th, I figured I would never buy another Wotc product again, but I REALLY like this old school feel it has. In fact, the only thing I don't like is the way the spells are presented but I can get over that i...

Re: 5e announced!

Thanks Goosebone. This gives me *some* hope for the next gen.
No map, really? Oh well I've still got a copy of Keep on the Borderlands laying around.

Re: 5e announced!

How many levels does it go to? How's the art? How many pages? Details, details! I'm at work and can't download but will when I get home. The curiosity is killing me.

Tips for House of Strahd

Hello everyone again. I plan on running House of Strahd with Castles & crusades rules this weekend. I've never actually ran this (weird considering all the ravenloft modules i ran when i was younger, even roots of evil and from the shadows). I was wondering If any of you could give me some ideas...
