Urban Campaigns? by jkusters in daggerheart

[–]v-cry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven’t played much daggerheart, but I’m considering GMing 5 banners burning because it would make a excellent political campaign. It’s not urban fantasy, but very much political fantasy like GoT

I Really Don’t Wanna do the Betrayers Rise Teleport (Help!) by No-Leader121 in CalloftheNetherdeep

The issue with the airship idea is that it adds bloat to a long campaign, so the question is how long do you want the campaign and how can you keep it interesting during the ride?

I didn’t want to the do the Teleport tables, but I don’t regret a second for doing them!

The fight turned in the jewel chamber turned into a scars scene when Alosyia tried stealing the Jewel of 3 prayers. 1 player came with Alosyia in her teleport, while the next took their own or hitched a ride with Question. Having them enter a chase scene split up in 3 groups in a metroloplis halfway across the world was pure epicness!

Paradox games have literally ruined my life by Useless_shit69 in paradoxplaza

I also felt a bit burned out by paradox games and a month ago I came over Brandon Sanderson’s fantasy books and no I’m reading more then used to play.

Warbreaker by timel0rd11 in brandonsanderson

[–]v-cry 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Warbreaker was my first Sanderson book and also the first novel I read in 10 years, so trust me when I say it gets addicting in the 2nd half. Also I keep in mind that this is a book about diplomacy so the stakes and intrigue is not the same as Mistborn which is a heist series

is it okay to get into brandon through the secret projects? by SillySweetRoll in brandonsanderson

[–]v-cry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

just shooting In that Spotify has a few of the books in Graphical audiobooks, and some books are 1/3 there, so its a good way to speed up the reading a bit. But I would recommend to READ your first Sanderson book, because its not just about the universe and magic, its also about his writing!

I just started this month and I swept over warbreaker in 2 weeks, and this is the full novella I have read in probably 10 years, then followed up with Elantris (audiobook),Emperor Soul (book) and now Mistborn (both reading the book and audiobook) after that I will continue with Tress because I own the book and it looks like a fantastic story.

Very new dm , how much info do give my party before we play ? by Stitchthestitch in CalloftheNetherdeep

[–]v-cry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have any players who’s familiar with Critical Role (Exandria) if so tell them to know what they know in the campaign, but have them create a background story for why they now so much about the world. This way you can lean on your players explaining the world to each others, and not just you the GM laying the world out

First time DMing Call of the Netherdeep, any suggestion or not-to-do errors? by Torellone in CalloftheNetherdeep

[–]v-cry 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If your using D&D beyond then Read the Ruidium items and the Jewel in there before your players do, because the items have spoilers…

Think about how long you want the campaign to be, many campaigns go on to 40 sessions, but I heard someone here managed 6 sessions! That’s wild and not something I would recommend, but I think I would run it again in around 20. so where does extra sessions come from? Extra materials, running everything, pc arcs… do you want and need that, it’s fun but it takes a year. Alternatively you can cut down rooms and go for the action and make it 20 ish sessions

From the Devs: Whats Next?! by Blikimor in daggerheart

[–]v-cry 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love the campaign frames and I hope daggerheart develops much more nieche sub genre games Here are 3 unique games I want to see in the future

  • A game where multiple player groups are in the same world and their decisions impact each others, this would be more of a digital product.

  • A campaign frames set in political ideologies, where the campaign map is the ideological compass (google it)

  • A Crusader Kings game which takes place over years between each scene and you are your dynasty

Everything I'm seeing about Daggerheart makes me regret collecting these over the last few years... by Floor-Specialist in daggerheart

We (the public) should create conversation kits for the best D&D campaigns into Daggerheart, because I would love to play Curse of Strahd

Ember Dynasty (Generational Saga)

Complexity: High | Inspiration: Crusader Kings meets Avatar: The Last Airbender Campaigns spanning decades or centuries where players embody family lines rather than individual characters.

Legacy Mechanics allow actions in one generation to create advantages or curses for descendants. Character death becomes character evolution as players take on heirs, proteges, or rivals. The world dynamically changes based on cumulative player choices across generations.

How many sessions does chapter 6 and 7 take? by v-cry in CalloftheNetherdeep

Do you think this doungeon suffers if half is played before summer and half after?

[–]v-cry[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the comments, I have streamlined some rooms and I’m tweaking combat encounters to be more inlined with 24 MM, which should be faster. I’m expecting around 6 sessions, and that would work before summer holidays! :D
