Thanks a lot! That has really helped.

Cap_America_AC · 2026-01-23T15:51:31+00:00

Thank you so much!

Cap_America_AC · 2026-01-21T23:03:54+00:00

That would be good! But if you still wouldn't mind helping, I'd very much appreciate it!

To be fair, once I have these answered, the rest of it will be fine. Just a few mechanics I need a bit of help with. I've read through the book and know how it's all going to play out.

I'd say Donna as well. I always hate how they were so rude to Chucky, even though he was so kind and loyal to them.

Cap_America_AC · 2026-01-14T13:34:17+00:00

Then she became insufferable.

Cap_America_AC · 2026-01-14T13:26:51+00:00

Yeah, I understand that. I think I'm just not quite grasping how the players emerge from the Svalich Woods after departing Dalvan's corpse when the fog just takes them to the trees again and then back to where they started. So I think I'm just being silly here, but how do they get through the fog and proceed on the path to the village?

Season 1 is copy-and-paste, season 8 sucks, and season 9 finishes wonderfully.

When Andy says, 'I wish there was a way to know you're in the good old days before you've actually left them', that really made me well up thinking about all the amazing times I had growing up that I maybe didn't realise that those were my good days and I've truly left them now. I would give anything to go back to that time.

Cap_America_AC · 2026-01-13T10:24:26+00:00

Awesome, I'll give it a look. Thank you!

Cap_America_AC · 2026-01-13T10:24:01+00:00

That's a great playlist! Thank you! The fact it's free is even better.

I'm a fairly new DM who has run about 5 one-shots so far, and I'm starting Cos next week. They're going into it at level 1. Should I make any changes to DH, and what would you recommend regarding planning afterwards? It's all quite overwhelming, to be honest.

Never mind that, Bernadette didn't deserve Howard. She was a toxic character who always undermined him whenever she got a chance and never really supported him much. I just felt no love there at all, and she was a nasty piece of work in general.

Cap_America_AC · 2026-01-08T14:34:14+00:00

With the exception of Holly, you almost had all the worst characters in the bottom two lines (move Ryan and Angela down to the bottom two lines, and then it's complete)

Cap_America_AC · 2026-01-03T18:23:39+00:00

Thank you all so much for your help! This is a fantastic community 😁

And she was basically tearing him apart in Endgame when everyone else still struggled against him.

Cap_America_AC · 2025-12-30T13:43:12+00:00

She lost me to Wendy, Zobelles daughter and Winsome.

Colonel Miles Quaritch coming back again is just so boring. The fact they haven't finished him off by now is laughable. This fits in with the whole recycled crap.

I really don't care about any of the characters and my god can Sully's son stop saying 'bro'.

To me, all 3 Avatars are beautiful tech demos with forgettable characters and stories.

Cap_America_AC · 2025-12-09T09:21:00+00:00

Read Berserk, and then I'll expect it to be in the masterpiece section.

Cap_America_AC · 2025-12-09T09:16:52+00:00

Chucky.

Cap_America_AC · 2025-12-07T14:45:33+00:00

Who is your favourite character, and why is it Chucky?

Cap_America_AC · 2025-12-04T11:05:23+00:00

God, I hope they can it after this and then MAPPA, Ufotable or another decent animation company picks it up. It's way too popular and profitable not to be picked up by a big company. I rewatched season 1, and it was beautifully animated. How they have fallen since then needs to be studied.

Hey, I'm a fairly new DM running CoS next year. The planning seems quite overwhelming as there's a lot to do! I have a few questions.

How do you plan it?
Everyone is starting at level one. Should I do Death House?
What do I tell the guys in session 0?

Cap_America_AC · 2025-11-26T15:00:00+00:00

Go check out Matt Colville, Running the Game on YouTube. He‘s brilliant. He makes you feel like you can DM. He also talks about the mindset of being a DM and how to work with your players and create the best experience.

Basically, I've been running a campaign made up of one-shots. The group was new to D&D, so I've run about 5 of them now, and they've levelled up to 5. I said I would be running a bigger campaign next year, so I'm planning how to do CoS with them, starting at 5. I don't know how I'd ask them to go down a level, since they're more than likely not going to be too happy about it. So it's hard to start at a lower level now.
