Are the saves associated with in Adventure 3 meant to be ? Is that based on or on their "friend"? That seems high, and scaling in a way meant for 4e, not 5e. Should it be closer to how saves are normally calculated in 5e, or is it meant to be increasingly difficult as the campaign moves...

The letter from her boss in Adventure 3 says something about --Berc

That's a good idea. Adventure 4 says "if the party works extra hard and manages to break the geas," which seems to imply something more than burn a readily available 3rd level spell. In Adv. 5, it says that Harkover can't use Remove Curse to remove a geas and says this is because Lee isn't as...

So, my group is partway through Adventure 3 right now, and have used Speak with Dead to good effect so far. I can keep the mystery alive because of some of the restrictions inherent in the Speak with Dead spell. However, they also have Remove Curse. They've already tried to use it on Xambria...

Hi folks, I got the 5e version of the Zeitgeist adventures from Patreon, so they came in separated pdfs, with each adventure comprised of 2-3 pdfs. Does anyone know if there's a version of these adventures that keeps each adventure in its own, single pdf. (It looks like the adventures are split...

Thanks @Andrew Moreton and @RangerWickett for the input. I think I will be using those Level Up guidelines for wealth. Still got to work through what I'm doing with magic items, but I like the idea of them getting a permanent requisition for loot they've turned over to the RHC at certain levels...

Hi folks, I'm two sessions in to a Zeitgeist campaign, and the players have just finished dealing with the Coaltongue incident. The players have loved the first part of the adventure, and they are getting ready to have their meeting with Delft and getting their first stipends. They are already...

Hi folks, It looks like the write-up for the Martial Scientist technique for the 5e version of Adventure 5 is, perhaps, a holdover from Pathfinder. I'm not sure what a "feint" should be in 5e. The closest thing I see is the fighter maneuver, but that would seem an odd choice. Any thoughts...

The rhythm of the voiceover reminded me a lot of Dr. Seuss. Lolth as the Grinch who stole Drizztmas?

Hobgoblin --> Hotgoblin (the attractive ones...) Gelatinous Cube --> Gelatinous Cub (Like a gummy bear) Basilisk --> Basilisp (has trouble with s's) Yeenoghu --> Yesnoghu (Gnoll demon of indecision) Pit Fiend --> Pit Friend (get in the pit and love someone) Pegasus --> Pigasus (winged oinker)...

It seems like these minis are cool, even if they are never used to represent a character in an RPG. I often buy minis because I like the sculpt or they represent something I haven't seen in mini form before. I'm thinking these would make a cool warband for Song of Blades and Heroes, Rangers of...

As an American, the only reason I'm asking about influences is because the sub-title of the game is "Action-Adventure Roleplaying in the Franco-Belgian Comics Tradition." And I don't know what that means. If it's copyright-code for Tintin, cool. But if it's something else, I'm curious what it...

I wasn't clear earlier. My apologies. What Franco-Belgian comics besides Tintin influenced this game? I'm interested in this game, but also interested in reading some of the source material that influenced it However, aside from Tintin and Asterix, I'm not very knowledgeable about...

Anybody know what comics influenced this game, besides Tintin?

I appreciate this article. I am, generally, a pretty busy person, so I wind up skimping on DM prep by using published material. I like DCC, but haven't run a full campaign in it because the amount of material is rather overwhelming. Pulling together adventures that work well together as a...
