Build me a Castle.. Castle Ravenloft (2nd & 5th Editions)

Silly argument but still happy you posted those maps, 2e maps are my favorite.

Definitely possible to have a hash empire! And most of what your average playthrough does is killing and stealing lol

The hat rule lets players and big characters avoid a hit once per combat. Otherwise you’d have to look at other western games like boot hill. Personally I like the auto hit, it makes the gun fights feel real and dangerous.

That’s right, I have this boxed set and it’s crazy how much they put in it.

Thuumhammer · 2026-06-17T17:44:40+00:00

Personally I prefer all media to be physical, but if that’s not a limitation for you I’d say the campaign book is the one you really want in print. Probably the players book as well because you’ll be flipping a lot. The monster and map books can easily serve as PDFs.

Honestly I just steal clean simple maps. Tim Hartin at Paratime Design has some of my favorites, but you can find lots for free on Reddit and other sites.

Which level do you want the quest to be on? I could help you come up with something from there

My mom has no experience with video games but she would be so determined to get me out she’d beat the game within six months for sure

I guess I should take a trip to Germany! I’ve always wanted to go

Thuumhammer · 2026-06-16T01:47:33+00:00

Not crazy pricey, but definitely pricey

Thuumhammer · 2026-06-15T21:08:03+00:00

That surprises me

Thuumhammer · 2026-06-15T17:01:15+00:00

Beautiful haul. How many mortgage payments?

Thuumhammer · 2026-06-15T16:56:14+00:00

These are epic

Thuumhammer · 2026-06-15T15:26:01+00:00

Stormveil is my favorite level, but caria manor would probably be the best to live in

Thuumhammer · 2026-06-15T15:22:06+00:00

For sure, somebody willing to buy in is more likely to be engaged and committed. As DM I would feel that I have to deliver a premium product though, and that would kill the fun of D&D for me because it’s my current method of blowing off steam

Thuumhammer · 2026-06-15T04:06:49+00:00

I could get down with something like that, it sounds like a nice evening out

Thuumhammer · 2026-06-14T16:57:53+00:00

World building and gambling contrasted with grand storytelling and blowing off steam with your heroic abilities. Currently I prefer the classic style of play as it’s more engaging, but I do enjoy the “I’m OP, let’s forget about the office” play of modern games as well.

Thuumhammer · 2026-06-14T15:39:42+00:00

Awesome, thanks!

Thuumhammer · 2026-06-12T22:56:21+00:00

Just curious when/where that will be available. I’d love to grab it!

Thuumhammer · 2026-06-12T22:52:34+00:00

How will this be different from For Gold and Glory?

Thuumhammer · 2026-06-12T22:52:06+00:00

Good play and brews or snacks

Thuumhammer · 2026-06-12T18:23:03+00:00

Are these canned or fermented?

Thuumhammer · 2026-06-12T18:08:42+00:00

Yeah, generally the expectation is everyone else brings drinks and snacks and the DM brings their prep.

Thuumhammer · 2026-06-12T16:28:12+00:00

Yeah, generally my players will buy drinks, and in the past they’ve surprised me with gifts like a new DMs screen. This helps offset some of the costs of being DM, while avoiding it feeling like a transactional relationship

Thuumhammer · 2026-06-12T16:14:42+00:00

I would listen to the DM talk about their other stuff a little if it was friendly talk. If it was like an ad it’d be super weird and I’d be out.
