    D&D General Which Campaign or Adventure Would You Adapt To Prestige Television?

    Shackled City. I've run that campaign so many times and it has been popular with players every time. Perfect mix of urban, wilderness and dungeon, coupled with politics both mortal and planar. 100%

    D&D General Mapping: How Do You Do It?

    We use wipe-clean battle maps. If it's a small dungeon or a house, I try to make sure it fits on a single such map sheet. Otherwise I describe the twists and turns, and only draw out a specific room or corridor section if the players ask for it, or combat is about to occur.

    Are You A GM?

    I'm the DM/GM about 75% of the time. I enjoying playing but I get a better experience from the GM side of the screen.

    D&D 5E (2024) GMs: How long should it usually take to go from level 1 to 4?

    Yes, it can be interpreted that way but it's still not a bad thing. Player's can have agency but the DM can't? I've been using Milestone XP for nearly 20 years and myself and the people I play with, find it works much better, more organic, than tracking XP. Different groups will obviously vary.

    D&D 5E (2024) GMs: How long should it usually take to go from level 1 to 4?

    I've never told players when the milestone is and it can shift depending on what they do. Milestones generally aren't fixed like that. Like everything in the game, they are a guide.

    20th and that sort of campaign took about 18 months, of weekly sessions of 4 hours.

    D&D 5E (2024) GMs: How long should it usually take to go from level 1 to 4?

    I voted Milestone because that is what I prefer. However, I like a level to be roughly 3-4 sessions if I had to choose otherwise.

    D&D General XP: How Do You Like To Earn It?

    As a player and a DM, I prefer Milestone. Just let players level up at the right point, just don't drag it out too long.

    D&D 5E (2024) Let's Write A High Level Adventure

    When I'm writing a higher level scenario I tend to have a concept and then other than any specific "dungeons" I just write scenes, or detail locations. Let the players use their spells and abilities to determine the path. Maybe consider that as a concept.

    D&D General DALL·E 3 does amazing D&D art

    ChatGTP is the same almost. It's programming has become silly restrictive. You can't do pictures depicting even fake people in a photo realistic quality without complaining that it might make a resemblance to someone real. As you were saying, some outfits on female pictures it won't do because...

    What was your 2nd RPG?

    From about the age of 9 I wanted to play D&D but my first was Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay in early 1987, which was closely followed by the BECMI D&D box sets. So Basic D&D was the my second.
