    D&D 5E Review of Tomb of Annihilation Accessories

    I wrote up a post on the Wizkids Traps and Tombs Set, my haul of Wizkids Icons of the Realms miniatures, the Tomb of Annihilation Dice Set and the new D&D DM Screen Reincarnated. Hope it helps to give you an idea of what you are in for if you pick any of these items up...

    Tonight we play B4 - The Lost City...in 3D!

    For the past 6 months my friend and I have been collaborating and working on building a 3D version of the pyramid from B4 - The Lost City. Tonight we are finally ready to put it into action. I will be DM'ing for a group of 10 players as they delve into the pyramid and meet the Cynidiceans and...

    D&D 5E Creating a Mini-game: The Keg Race

    Here is my follow-up to how it worked in action: http://www.twentysidestoeverystory.com/2017/07/creating-5e-mini-game-dwarven-keg.html Overall, it went very well! I'd probably increase the size of the field but the overall mechanics worked out well.

    D&D 5E Creating a Mini-game: The Keg Race

    Planning to use initiative, although I might use Greyhawk initiative for this event as we have been playing around with it and I think it'd be perfect for adding suspense to a sporting event scenario.

    D&D 5E Creating a Mini-game: The Keg Race

    Posted this to my blog: http://www.twentysidestoeverystory.com/2017/07/creating-5e-mini-game-dwarven-keg-battle_25.html Going to run it on Friday, I'll try to give an update on how it went and tweaks to make. I'm thinking that I might remove the tapping the keg thing as a mechanic for the...

    D&D 5E Creating a Mini-game: The Keg Race

    Good thought - I think certainly the use of magic would be considered a foul, however cheating would likely be a factor that should be considered. I would think a player on the field would be unable to clandestinely be able to pull off spell casting, but perhaps a friend in the crowd could...

    D&D 5E Creating a Mini-game: The Keg Race

    I'll have to get on that next. I'm thinking some kind of Modron that talks like Slurms McKenzie. I certainly take the point, although my group nor any group I have ever been a part of has ever paid attention to encumbrance rules as written. Additionally, using the encumbrance mechanics would...

    D&D 5E Creating a Mini-game: The Keg Race

    I have a big game to prepare for on Friday and my players have enjoyed the inclusion of little mini-games to accentuate festivals/city exploration. For this event, the players will be honored guests at the Day of the Stonewife, a celebration of the gifts the dwarven deity provides the community...

    D&D 5E Map of the Yawning Portal (based off the map from Halls of the Undermountain)

    Here is my map of the Yawning Portal tavern that I made with Dungeon Designer 3: I'm going to be trying to write and create more content to spruce up the Yawning Portal - next up is to provide some stats for Durnan and flesh out some of the other NPCs that make appearances in the tavern...

    Revisiting The Keep on the Borderlands

    My players loved playing through Keep on the Borderlands. They had never played D&D Basic before, only 5e, and so I was motivated to show them what the game was like in its earlier form. They loved the freedom they had to choose their own path and it was a lot of fun for me to add the details to...

    Unearthed Arcana Our Group Tried Unearthed Arcana: Greyhawk Initiative

    My Wednesday night group I DM for gave Greyhawk Initiative a try as they entered White Plume Mountain. I warned everyone ahead of time that I was interested in trying this, and initially everyone was on board. When we got to the table, I could tell there was a little pushback and the idea of not...

    D&D General Welcome Thread

    Hello everyone! Long time lurker...I have been playing D&D off and on since I was 8 years old, and been solidly gaming for the past five or so. This past year I experienced my first Gen Con and have since attended three other conventions. Now I'm starting a blog called Twenty Sides to Every...
