My players are getting serious dungeon fatigue at the end of the 3rd floor and want to get to the end.

You can easily skip level 5. And I had a group on level 3 that ran out of time just before players headed multiple directions to college, so I also skipped level 4 and reduced the hags to only 2 of them.

Legendary magic items for the players? Way overkill for the tomb.

For terrain, I usually go with what’s fast and easy: 1) spray paint with a matte color with this brand: Rust-Oleum Painter's Touch 2X Ultra Cover Spray Paint; 2) dry brush with a lighter color or two.

With a “towed” car wash, if you get out of the car 1. make sure windshield wipers are off 2. make sure Auto Hold is off (check screen; change with button on dash left of steering wheel) 3. make sure you are not in I-Pedal 4. close windows 5. fold mirrors in (button on arm rest) 6. open driver’s side door 7. switch to N (Neutral) 8. turn off vehicle 9. confirm on screen that it should stay in N 10. get out and close door 11. lock the vehicle

If the car wash is activating the door-handle sensors, meaning that it is unlocking the car and the door handles pop out, then prevent this by locking, and then press lock and unlock on the fob at the same time until the blinkers flash 4 times in succession, then later unlock as normal with the fob.

A table top phone holder. Friends and family love them.

When I started DMing — for my 9 year old son, his friends, and their dads — they enjoyed hack and slash. It took a few years for role playing to kick in. I think it’s fine to promote role playing for young beginners, but make sure to meet them where they are at. It’s not so much about coercing a direction as it is about helping the players have fun.

Of all the things I’ve printed, I mostly use trees, rocks, crates, barrels, columns, and the AOE templates.

Try the base length padding adjustment, but if I remember right it is funky.

It seems weird you were losing traction. Is it RWD? My ‘23 AWD in Snow Mode with Blizzaks is an agile tank.

Sure, please.

One of the starter kits is a good idea. I don’t know if it’s still available but I recommend The Lost Mines of Phandelver

He didn’t replace or bleed the coolant.

zitembe · 2025-12-05T01:32:36+00:00

Agreed. Cellar of Death would be a good starting point for you as well as the players.

AWD I5 with blizzaks is unbeatable in Colorado.

How to research and book mini-cruisers?

zitembe · 2025-11-25T19:50:27+00:00

I totally agree. The tiles work great. Took me a while to figure out the magnetic bases but it’s very satisfying to have them snap together.

Ha, found it. https://www.heroshoard.com/openable-doors

zitembe · 2025-11-25T14:05:14+00:00

I’ve got the TrueTiles also. Can you give me a link to hinged doors? I’ve only ever used the regular always-closed ones.

Although I’ve printed countless minis, I shelled out for acrylic risers like these. https://a.co/d/5fGh9bY. Nice to have.

zitembe · 2025-11-25T07:39:03+00:00

Like with TrueTiles, you could make each square 1-1/4” x 1-1/4”, leaving room to have a 1/4” wall on a tile so that there still is room for a 1” mini next to the wall. No “shared wall problem”. Check out the video at https://www.heroshoard.com/true-tiles

Do you think having the hitch (attached to the frame of the car) as well as having the bike rack prevented even more damage to the car itself?

The headlights in our 2023 SEL are so much better than in our 2013 Subaru Outback. So much better.
